I didn't like the Beat Takeshi "Zatoichi" as much as the originals. In the older ones, he isn't as violent, like the part where he cut the gambler's hand off in the old one's he might've hit the gambler's hand with the side of his sword and then cut the dice in mid-air to show that they were fake.

I agree that some of the movies are "unrealistic" where the story takes off in improbable directions, but that's what makes the good ones stand out from the bad. (Ex. "Battle Royale" excellent movie, "Battle Royale 2" absolutely horrible!!)

I can't believe that I left out the greatest samurai series of all time, "Lone Wolf and Cub". If you liked "Zatoichi", you'll love "Lone Wolf."

Well know you get to see the U.S. butcher Dark Water. I hate that they made the american version of ring 2 completely different from ringu 2. It didn't do it justice. Have you seen ichi the killer. I love battle royal

BTW- I got my hands on a copy of Bright Future. Incredible! It deals with murder, poisonous jellyfish, and young men facing their dull futures. I highly recommend it.
