Am I the only one who didn't like Audition at all? I tried it after seeing Dead or Alive and thinking it was the most amazing thing in movie history and was utterly disappointed. Speaking of DoA, do you know if its going to make it onto a R1 DVD anytime soon? Seems like a movie distributors would be more likely to be picked up for American distribution than Audition. -Aaron ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Hime" <hime1@gte.net> Date: Wednesday, May 8, 2002 1:02 am Subject: Re: [idm] Ring

as long as we're on the subject, i have to recommend this japanese film i saw a couple of weeks ago: Battle Royale (2000) some time in the near future, the japanese government decides that because kids are up to no good, there has to be "battle royale" where they send 42 high school students to an uninhabited island and give each one a different weapon - only one can leave. it is just as fucked up as it sounds, and beautifully made. http://us.imdb.com/Title?0266308 On Wed, 8 May 2002, Aaron D Meyers wrote:

Own it. It's definitely a favorite in my crowd. If you've got a multi-region player, get the R3 disc, since it's not likely to come out in the US (R3 disc has English subs). It played at the Asian Film Fest here in Dallas a month or so back, and at the Deep Ellum Film Festival before that. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Agreed. That movie is great. I saw it and Dead or Alive last summer and they both just totally blew me away. I have it in a crappy .asf computer format. Maybe its time to invest in one of those slick multi- region dvd players so I can live the decadent foreign dvd watching lifestyle of Mr. Hime. ;) -Aaron ----- Original Message ----- From: "jacob z." <jsz@eds.org> Date: Wednesday, May 8, 2002 1:16 pm Subject: Re: [idm] [OT] Ring

$100 and a Sam's Club card will get you a Daewoo 5700, which can be hacked through its remote control to play any region. It converts PAL to NTSC as well. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
