Coffee Prince
200 pounds of beauty

I love Coffee Prince.
It started a week or so before
I got back to Korea.

The second one I may know it but I am not sure.

Oh gawsh, have you ever watched like the little
bride or something.

Child Bride?

Oh and Don't Tell Dad? Or something like that?

I actually know Korean and don't understand why
they use the names they do when they convert
Korean to English.

Mikku 01-04-2008 07:34 PM

I'm trying to watch as many on your list as possible...*gasp* death note is getting so good...and i know the guy who plays light, he's Shuya in battle royale too, right?

Mumboo 01-05-2008 12:10 AM

Yeahh.
Shuya is Light.
I <3 Light. So..kawaii. >w<

Mikku 01-05-2008 12:14 AM

i don't really like him...he's cute and means well...but he's a little crazy...and ryuk scares me...and i found out im kinda like misa...

Asahi Kumoru 01-05-2008 07:41 AM

I've seen the first Deathnote movie, but not the second one yet. Liked the first one, though; 'twas pretty good for a live-action adaptation of an anime, and I thought they did a good job working Ryuk in and making him look "real".

I'll have to check out some of the others you mentioned XD

I /really/ got to like Chinese cinema last year when I took a class in it. We watched a great bunch of movies for that. Some of my favorites:

"Ermo" - About a woman who lives in a small town saving up to buy a television.

"Springtime in a Small Town" - Really subtle and complex story about an old couple, and what happens when an old friend of the wife pays the family a visit and shakes things up.

"Ju Dou" - Earlier Zhang Yimou film that's creepy as heck in a psychological sort of way. About a man who dyes cloth, his abused young bride, his adopted nephew and the resulting affair.

"Eat Drink, Man Woman" - Taiwanese movie about a cook and his three daughters, and finding romance. Reminded me of a fairy tale in a good way, and also made me really hungry ^^;

Takuto 01-05-2008 03:06 PM

I have seen Nana. (in Vietnamese. XD.)
It was very touching. Those actresses did a great job.

YOU BEAT ME TO IT. Damn you. XD

But yeah. That is my favorite movie...EVER. Even though it contains one scene I cannot watch without screaming and closing my eyes, it's my favorite. I've seen it 29 times now...and one of these days, I swear, I'm probably gonna end up in therapy over the end of the last fight scene. *wimp*

But I still watch it every time I have two hours free...starting at least 12 hours before I have to go to work. XD; Like I said...*wimp*

Alumia 01-09-2008 10:24 PM
