Best Lone Wolf and Cub is Baby Cart in the Land of Demons, where Ogami Itto has to defeat five samurai, receiving a part of the message of his killing assignment from each of them.

My favorite thing about it is how he is always killing more and more people as the book goes on but you see less and less of it. I swear theres an issue near the end where he kills like 100 dudes entirely off panel, at that point in the book its not like it matters anyways and we've seen him kill so many dudes. I just like that they dont even bother with the formalities of it.

The second one is the only one i haven't seen in it's entirety, but i've seen the parts from Shogun Assassin. Kull the Conqueror posted:Best Lone Wolf and Cub is Baby Cart in the Land of Demons, where Ogami Itto has to defeat five samurai, receiving a part of the message of his killing assignment from each of them. that one's really good, but reviewing the plot synopses my favorite was Baby Cart to Hades, which is a really neat slow burn samurai story that leads up to an absolutely insane battle scene at the end. it also has this rack focus shot, which i love:

The Landmark Theatres in Harbor East (President and Aliceanna Streets, I believe) is your best bet for first-run stuff, and the Charles Theatre (Charles Street between Lafayette and Lanvale, like two blocks north of Penn Station) is an amazing spot for independent and foreign films.

I always felt the movie was far less interesting than it's basic concept. i've never seen it but i recently read this awesome, awesome book on counterculture horror that made me really want to. i wish McFarland books weren't so drat expensive but then if they weren't we probably wouldn't get so many on such dope topics so i guess it's a tradeoff. edit: yo penismightier, is this one made for you or what Uncle Boogeyman fucked around with this message at 22:44 on Mar 27, 2015 |

This kinda thing is why I don't really understand people who think things are automatically going to get better over time. Social mores can go either way at any point. For example, America's become increasingly conservative since the Reagan years in pretty much every area except being ok with people loving whoever they want and minorities holding jobs. Everyone's always saying "Oh, just wait until the old guard dies" but there's always a Rand Paul in the new guard.

Yeah, the initiative system in California is seriously hosed up. I'd probably feel different if I wasn't a straight white male, but the "murder all gays" initiative is just so patently ridiculous it seems like a poorly phrased joke.

You can rewrite the state constitution with a simple majority vote in a non presidential election year, so literally less than a quarter of the state would have voted in favor of it.

It makes it awkward for me because most of my family is pretty conservative, but I find myself getting more liberal. If anything, it's really stupid to admit to refusing business to someone over something specific about them rather than just bullshitting them about schedules being booked up.
