Can't leave out the influence Akira Kurosawa's The Hidden Fortress had on Lucas while creating Star Wars.

Akira Kurosawa also directed another movie called Seven Samurai,

which then gave us The Magnificent Seven.

Akira Kurosawa, one of the greatest filmmakers off all-time.

Thanks, km1, for the Kurosawa mention. Definitely, he influenced Lucas both directly and indirectly.

Yeah, I felt it was a bit of a misfire, looked promising but just didn't work out how it should've.

The best recent film I've seen recently (not sure if it's even been released in North America yet) is United Red Army from Japan:

Well we finally got to rent the ninja movie. It was really good except for one thing... the blood spattering was a bit excessive. No one bleeds that much.

Just saw Kickass and Defendor. Both are very good movies. I like Nicholas Cage's character in Kickass!
