Now, I thought "Mega Shark vs. Giant octopus" was the best title EVER, but "Sword of Doom" is way way better. I must watch this one day ( ... )

Hee! Though I must put in a good word for the fabulous title: Robinson Crusoe on Mars

I wholeheartedly recommend Sword of Doom, and not just because it has an awesome title. It is a very interesting movie about how violence and nihilism destroys a person, though it does have its fair share of sword fighting.

I very much like your ideas about Let the Right one In, and it made me rethink certain aspects of the film. I'm still not fond of it, but I dislike it less than before. Thank you :) I particularly think the Cold War symbolism is a very sharp and good observation, yet I cannot shake the feeling that the films embrace of the retro-cool was in no way intended to be ironic and instead was too tied up in aesthetic trends.

What makes them into loners who can't connect and relate to other?That is a very good question, and one I have no answer for. I think what jarred me most in relation to Oskar was that I felt the film never managed to give him the depth needed to raise or answer these questions ( ... )
