That was my first with Aya
I could see how Aya could get overdone. Is she like the Britney Spears or Paris Hilton of Japan? Now when is Britney or Paris going to take up sword?
I used to be into Brigette Lin. Then she started playing too many transgender roles. One of my friends who is a closet-****sexual was way into her. Call me ****phobic, but that turned me off of her. I totally respect her work still, but given the list so far, my #1 is still Maggie (with an honorable mention to Jennifer) :p
Sek, how could you not tell me about this thread!?
What can you say about Ueto Aya?! Except that the way most Tokyoites pronounce her name is Wet Aya which is even hotter! :D
Azumi is cool. One of the best movies. The manga are cool too, but unfortunately for you lot I don't think there's an English version yet.
However, unfortunately I have a piece of advice:
Do
Not
Watch
Azumi
2!
It is sacriligiously crap! Really! It's horrible! The worst acting, the worst directing, the worst action, the worst script etc etc. Sorry, but as a big fan of the first, I thought I'd try and save you the disappointment that is the second.
:(
So Close, canglong, So Close!
One of our writers, August West, reviewed So Close in In the Shadow of Kill Bill: Hong Kong meets Hollywood in Shaolin Soccer, Medallion and So Close. I'm going to complain to August about not sending us any proper pictures for that film.
