Curse you and your correct application of Monrovian.

And Hiawatha and Tirawa and Othegwenhda and the whole plethora of Native American myths.

Also, just under a hundred years ago Japanese-American actor Sessue Hayakawa parlayed his success into making his own movie studio, including period dramas starring Asian actors like himself such as the Dragon Painter.

Oh I'm not criticizing Keanu Reeves past history of being cast in leading roles. But this part Asian actor is the closest Hollywood has to an Asian star they could use to headline 47 Ronin? There's still an issue there.

I loved Zatoichi back when it came out. I keep half meaning to plunge into the couple dozen original Zatoichi films.

Besides, Where's Waldo in the US version was clearly named as a reference to Ralph Waldo Emerson, so I think this one is an intellectual draw.

I remember going to see a bloody ton of David Lean's early, pre-Lawrence films a couple of years back.

You'd probably like Yuri Petrovich's Kamen Rider reviews over at that forum place, then.

Let me know how you find IHNMAIMS.

Yeah, exactly this kind of nonsense.

Hell I've seen people say Nelson Mandela was a terrorist around these parts. I mean, really.

Bravo used to have opera!

So? They're his employers and if they feel that his views tarnish their brand they can go ahead and do something about that.

Triumph of the Will is generally more respected for its scope and achievement as cinematic spectacle, though. There's a reason Star Wars just lifts a sequence from it for the ending ceremony.

But it's no Space: 1999!
