We already discussed most of the films you mention here - and I skipped the review of "Me and 23 slaves" - I am desperately waiting for this Blu-ray to arrive.

But I need to say - I envy your current life-style ^-^.

O really?! YAY! Do you know when the BR version will be available? Cannot wait for you to watch it!

It is the best lifestyle ever! But only have it for another 4-ish weeks.

The Blu-ray already dispatched from Hongkong on June 13th. But we have the most annoying customs-office in the world. And deliveries from Hongkong almost always get held off even if the invoice is attached outside the package, as required. So usually it takes between 4-8 weeks before I receive a Hongkong-Blu-ray :-(.
And to make things worse our post is on strike right now - which means once it´r released by customs-office , it might get stuck at the post-center and so it might even take longer than usual.
I wish the Japanese would put English subs on their Blu-ray´s. They get here much faster.

I wish I could have that life-style - evn for 4 weeks. I already feel burned-out again. I really hate to have to go to work again in some 8-9 hours...

4 - 8 weeks? Wow that does suck! For England a package from China/Hong Kong takes about 3 weeks.
Ah man, that does suck! =[

It's not the Japanese who subtitle DVDs, it's the companies over here who do and they rarely subtitle anything! Which majorly sucks.

Least you get 8 - 9 hours sleep? I dunno. When I start working I think I start at 7am. So that's me getting like 6 hours sleep a night but I know I can handle that ^_^

Using my break to write a few lines. Yes, this really sucks! Until a few months ago it also tooka bout 3 weeks for Hongkong DVD/BD , but recently the DHL-guys sorting the goods when they enter Germany are too stupid to find the invoice and always send the parcels to the customs-offices (and that is absolutely not necessary). This causes that 3-4 weeks delay

DHL?! O man do NOT get me started on DHL. Fucking hate them! They're the worst 'postmen' ever!

I see, I learnt something! ^_^ But in Korea, everyone's pretty much fluent in English so they can do their own English subs easily =] also, they like spreading into that international audience unlike Japan >.<

Ahh o yeah! That sucks. I am more of a 'get up early and get work out of the way' type of person but I am also a 'fully wakes up at 8pm everyday' type of person xD

And now you can pity me - DHL is our main post delivery service. And they do the checking when parcels enter Germany.

Well, I guess there are still enough Japanese capable of English that they find someone who can make subs. But indeed Korea is way better regarding English. And what you say about Japan not interested in spreading into international audience - that´s the real main problem I have heard from many sides. Japanese bands when they are still small always say, they want to go international and spread J-music into the world - Sekai no owari also did say that. But then they suddenly became huge in Japan. They now made a documentary movie - but does it have English subtitles for those international fans they originally wanted to win? NO!

I do pity you! =[

Aye, tis a big problem for those outside of Japan.
