What We'll be watching (good) live action asian films every week and then posting about them in detail. then we'll go get some nandos When the next movie gets posted in the weekend and then you watch it whenever!!! woo!!! Films? suggest a movie if you want to watch it with everyone! the upcoming movies list is always open. i pick the next movie we watch semi-randomly but if everyone wants to see a specific movie let me know. How? buy the movie or get it some other way.(torrent links are allowed if teh movies unlicensed !!!)

Movie #1: Linda! Linda! Linda! (2005) Pinda! Pinda! Pinda! (リンダ リンダ リンダ) is a movie about a group of teenagers getting together to play some cool rear end songs. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9kBdIG-NcY) It's a film by Nobuhiro Yamashita who's known for his films about young people feeling lost in life. His movies always invoke a strong sense of melancholia in me. I haven't seen the movie yet either so i'm not gonna write too much here. Just don't expect it to be exactly like K-on! trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNEeKAJQ-qY discussion starts here Budget Prefuse fucked around with this message at 14:43 on Aug 23, 2015 |

doomisland posted:I dunno if we want rotating genres each week so we switch it up or if thats too complicated and just the OP dictates and can be swayed by posting Stink Billyums posted:Although I liked 2LDK more, that's kind of begging for a double bill with Aragami, what with the whole Duel Project thing. They're both quite short movies.

Movie #4: Why don't you play in hell? (2013) Probably the greatest movie ever made, Why don't you play in hell???? (why tho) focuses on a dorky film crew (THE gently caress BOMBERS), a yakuza family, a runaway girl and a completely normal guy that has nothing to do with the events in the film all coming together to make an extremely bloody feature film for the wife of the yakuza boss. Also features a kid that dresses up like bruce lee and a song about toothpaste. Definitely Sion Sono's funniest movie. trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-wHR4VNf84

DoneDisDisDis posted:I watched Bird People and I liked it a lot. The yakuza guy in old age was incredibly cool. I've been holding off on the one after it because it sounds like a downer and I've had a crappy week. I will definitely watch Why Don't You Play In Hell.

SPOOKY MOVIE NUMBER 1 Movie #5: Occult (2009)  turn off da lightz for this one...Occult is a horror about the little things in life that unsettle you. A man decides to make a documentary about a mass murder that occurred at a resort and finds himself tangled up in disturbing "miracles", leeches and something calling itself God. Instead of going for straight up visceral horror Occult takes it's time disturbing you. It's easy to tell something is off and everything is spiraling towards the worst possible conclusion but you don't know exactly what is going on until the extremely disturbing and hilarious (yes, hilarious) climax. trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uStog-vuXNw
