i bought the dvd on ebay for $5 two months ago.
its a good movie, a lot different then i thought it would be.

Will Miramax be fucking this one up for the American audience as well?

It wasn't as good as I thought it would be.

It's like a blend between Rashomon and an old-school Kung Fu movie.

no. i read that the only thing the're doing is letting quint tarantino
present the film, but the're not gonna touch it

Oh, good.

just found this- a great review + it has a cool slide show of pics and a little about the color themes presented in the film

hero was boring and pretentious.

You thought so because you suck.

Hero is GLORIOUS. :tear

During the fight scene with Nameless vs. Sky, an old man is playing an instrument. I believe it is a Qin (pronounced chin). Am I correct?

If so, did anyone catch how many strings it had?

Broken Sword's sword splitting other swords and shields in half gave me a massive, massive, clitoral swelling.

Everyone else in the fucking theater hated it.

I thought it was pretty good. :/

Me and ninjavenom went to go see it in the movies and i hated it. The thing with the water being bounced with the blades was dumb and didnt make any sense. Venom liked it but i thought there wasnt enough people being killed. They should have left this peace of crap in china. (if you look at the part where snow and broken sword are fighting you can see car tracks :)

Just saw it today and thought it was the best movie I've seen all year (at least).

I don't really see the logic behind releasing this in the US, since American audiences aren't going to appreciate it - Its cultural background is incredibly conflicting with American expectations of cinema. I'm not going to pretend I'm a film fag and think that the movie is too brilliant for anyone but me to 'understand,' but I'm a huge sucker for Asian tragedies.

Total deja vu as I type this, too. :o

I liked how the costume colors changed every time the story changed, too. :O

Thank you

*you were my voice when I couldn't speak* :lol

I watched it yesterday, and I loved it. I actually had a headache from a sensory overload. One of the most lavish and beautiful movies I've seen, and I think everyone should make a point of seeing this one on the big screen.
