Samurai Fiction a little on the lighter side, with some scenes which were just hilarious, but enjoyable still. There are two books being published / republished this year about samurai films... Stray Dogs & Lone Wolves : The Samurai Film Handbook by Patrick Galloway List Price: $19.95 Paperback...

Suggest some samurai flicks that I can get on Netflix!

I think I actually heard about a film from here and rented it and enjoyed it very much. Twilight Samurai. So as a fellow Usagi fan and such I thought I would ask here for more input from you people. I've seen: 7 samurai yojimbo sanjuro twilight samurai trilogy I've loved them all and am looking for ...

Hi Naomi, I haven't been to back to Texas since A-Kon. I really enjoyed that dinner with you. New York is a wonderful city. I enjoy taxi towns like NY or Philadelphia. I haven't been to NY in quite awhile, though. And I just stayed in Manhattan. Hope all is well with you. We've missed you and your ...

how far out in LI are you? If you're in the Nassau County area, I can direct you to a very reasonable and good sushi place... and a comic store or two... but seriously, go to the city for comics.

Re: Mifune...

Toshiro Mifune is great! If you get a chance, check out "Red Lion" with him... (No, not "Red Beard", differant film). At least the vhs version I seen was excellent, the sub-titles were were just hillarious, laughed through most of the film, kind of like his role in Seven Samurai...

I thought it was well known that Kurosawa was a huge fan of detective novels and brought those ideals to Samurai flicks... if that helps anyone's thoughts and speculations.

Hey, after that last one there, 18, what comic should I start picking up? Anyone know what issue that 18 ends with?

Man, I have book 1 and 2... fricken memory lane! Man, I loved these books as a kid and wish I had kept up with them...

Great Samurai films to check out?

Besides Kurosawa's stuff, and Samurai Trilogy (basis of Usagi Yojimbo)... are there any good films I need to check out?

I'm getting 47 Ronin also...
