So Netflix is the best thing ever. I got an account there, and rented some pretty cool movies. While I was poking around looking for crazy Japanese movies I found one called "Lady Snowblood" that sounded really good. So I watched it, and it is really really good! It is also so the inspiration for Kill Bill. Right down to the music, a few songs are even exactly the same. I wonder if he gave any credit to this movie anywhere, because it's almost the same story of revenge, except that Lady Snowblood would basically be a mixture of O-Ren's revenge and The Bride's. It's a beautiful movie and especially worth watching if you're a Kill Bill fan.

I also got "Grave of the Fireflies" which is a really sad anime about WWII. Netflix has so much freaking anime, I'm all giggly about that. Aaaaand that's about it. WOO! Exciting I know...I bet you thought I would have something good to say, seeing as how I post so rarely! Haha! I fooled you! I win!

Edit: Ok Tarantino did give credit to Lady Snowblood. So....kudos to him! Or something...I have no enthusiasm for anything today! *falls over*

Edit #2: Ok, so after looking around for awhile at stuff about Meiko Kaji, it seems I'm prolly the last Kill Bill fan to know about Lady Snowblood, so feel free to make fun of me.
