battousai16 Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 The Last Samurai with Tom Cruise is coming out soon. any thoughts, y'all? "I hear you can kill 200 men and play a mean six string at the same time..."-Six String Samurai
Martial_Artist Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 I think it looks good. "I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.Imagination is more important than knowledge.Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world." Einstein
Ben Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 I'm going to see it, just because its MA-ish and theres not much else coming out soon... but I'm not sure how good it might be. From what i've seen of the trailers, it looks slightly confusing, but hey... i live for swords, so (and Tom Cruise in this kind of roll?! ... hmmm)
Drunken Monkey Posted November 11, 2003 Posted November 11, 2003 i just hope that there isn't too much dramatic shadow/silhouette posing in the film... post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
battousai16 Posted November 12, 2003 Author Posted November 12, 2003 there was a preview for it at matrix revolutions, and there was indeed a shadowy/silhouette form goin. i really like tom cruise though, so i'll be first in line it looks promising "I hear you can kill 200 men and play a mean six string at the same time..."-Six String Samurai
monkeygirl Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 It looks pretty cool, but what's up with the timing of it? I remember seeing previews for this ages ago... 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.
Drunken Monkey Posted November 13, 2003 Posted November 13, 2003 they're gonna pitch it in a bit later when matrix and kill bill has calmed down a bit, but earlyenough before feb so that it qualifies for this year's oscars and earn a tidy bit of money... and today i've got my cynical hat on. post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
battousai16 Posted November 13, 2003 Author Posted November 13, 2003 it makes sense to me "I hear you can kill 200 men and play a mean six string at the same time..."-Six String Samurai
Drunken Monkey Posted November 13, 2003 Posted November 13, 2003 and it looks like the matrix guys shot themselves cos now, revolutions and reloaded both qualify for nominations... wonder what bright spark came up with that one? post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
Don Gwinn Posted November 13, 2003 Posted November 13, 2003 I haven't seen Revolutions yet, but from what I hear, they don't really have to worry about Oscar strategies this year. The Last Samurai looks like it will be interesting as a portrayal of a clash between Western militaries and Samurai. Don't know how good it will be, but I'll go see it. ____________________________________* Ignorant Taekwondo beginner.http://www.thefiringline.com
