Where did you hear it's ending? As hard as it is to imagine a S3 watching S2's finale, it's not officially cancelled (but nor renewed).

Even if so, I'm not sad. I don't mind any good series ending of its own terms, when it reached a story arc's natural conclusion. And S2's finale certainly felt like a Tartakovsky story's endpoint.

An incredible series, even better than Samurai Jack. Looking forward to new (ad)ventures from Taratkovsky, his storytelling chops is insane.

Taking Star Wars back to its Japanese samurai and film roots! (Kurosawa's Hidden Fortress!)

I agree if you mean the real original...Seven Samurai. That's a top ten all time great.

ALL you can drink?

This reminds me of those "all drinks are on us" cruises you see advertised on TV.

I mean, a thousand frat boys with an unlimited bar tab stuck on a boat with nothing else to do? Didn't anyone involved in this promotion see the videos of the Nickel Beer Night Riot in Cleveland? If they haven't, they really should, because the Nickel Beer Night Riot was the greatest thing to happen in the history of Western Civilization Assholery. I'm serious! If I had a time machine, screw going back to meet Jesus or killing baby Hitler: I'd grab me a ride to June 4, 1974, drop a dollar at the beer concession stand, then get hoot-chimp drunk and huck D-cells at the Texas Rangers until it was Penis Puppetry time at third base.

All-you-can-drink beer in Japan? That'd be like the Nickel Beer Night Riot, only with samurai and ninjas -- how fucking awesome would that be?! I'm half-way to the airport already!

God bless you, Japan!

Also, I feel like this would have been even more awesome if the Seven Samurai had shown up at the end.

Looks more like a Samurai than a Ninja.

Same situation here. I liked Seven Samurai, and could see how the conversion to a western works well. It's a fairly simple story, classic underdog / good vs evil setup. This certainly isn't going to have the cultural impact of Kurosawa, but I'm guessing it'll be an entertaining flick.

I watched several of the original blind masseuse flicks during IFC's Samurai Saturday, but haven't seen the newest movie. Added to list.

<3

The tactics of low budget filming ahahahahahahhaaaa... I would be pissed if someone cut down the tree in my yard though! My side, your side, my side, your side -- MY TREE. Sounds like it was a lot of fun -- and stress lol.

Love me some Akira Kurosawa, tooooo. Yoooooooo! Also made Seven Samurai AKA The Magnificent Seven. I love the cross pollination between Japanese, American and Italian cinema. Not to mention British, French, Spanish, German and Russian. (Sorry for leaving your country out, all cinema is connected tbh.)

Anyway, love the scene at the end of A Fistful..More where Clint goes around colleting all the dead bodies on his wagon. Its such a great closer. And Good the Bad and the Ugly is epic af, not low budget at all -- it's a dang war film! If you haven't seen these films, at least watch the g, the b, and the u. It's a grand spectacle.

Duck You Sucka footage in there, which is not an Eastwood film, it's about an Irish terrorist's (James Coburn, the guy who got his luggage shot by Mel Gibson in... Cant remember the name of that film) involvement in the Mexican Revolution. The kill count is pretty impressive. Fuckin good movie, from the Once Upon a Time tril.

I enjoyed this movie so don't let this article I'm about to post deter you from watching -- but it's something that has to be mentioned:

http://shashalaperf.blogspot.com/2011/04/voice-tricky-topic-of-race-and-voice.html

I'm not passing a judgement on this flick because especially in voice acting, people don't need to match the race they're voicing. Case in point, Phil LaMarr is one of my favourite contemporary voice actors and he has voiced a range of different races, including the Japanese hero in Samurai Jack.

Food for thought.

Remake of a 1960 film by the same name, which was an adaptation of the classic Kurosawa film Seven Samurai. I haven't seen the 1960 film, though I have seen Seven Samurai, which lived up to its vaunted reputation.

This definitely looks entertaining at least, based on the trailer.
