well, we explored the cultural impact on film and how that doesnt neccessarily translate well.

i was thinking its not much different than the culture shifts that happen with time as well ..

movies that worked 40 years ago wont wash now (with most people) because we are more jaded now.

its the same thing really.

fortunately some of use are open minded enough to look at a film and understand that it fits the time and place it was made and enjoy it in that light.

:(

Sadface. It'd be crazy to go there. Maybe Crucial Taunt will be playing eh? ;) :p

all the old bars are going .. like the silver dollar ...
we almost lost the el mocombo too ..

You'd like the Toronto music scene ... it doesnt break in the US which is a shame .. a lot of unheard talent up here...

I bet. Guaranteed better than the scene here.....which is String Quartets......and thats it.

where the hell does one live where there are only string quartets ?

So, in the long term, do you think the impact the movies had on their respective countries' movie industry will have been positive or negative?

I've never seen Ringu, but it's on my x-mas list *sigh*

I think it's visually inferior to The Ring, direction and cinematography-wise, but the story is better (yes, they are different), and the video and Sadako are better
