December ; it’s listing time !
So what are the best Asian movies that come out this year ?

I only saw one (yes, I should be ban from the group) the Hong Sang-Soo “in another country” that was as good as his usual movies. Lot of funny hypocrisy, booze and a strange way to tell the story. The timeline is weird, the perspective change, and sometime the story change too. If you like his previous movies no reason you wouldn’t like this one.

Well, not really, I mean, ok, Fate/Zero And G.I.T.S Stand Alone Complexe share the same universe that the original work but have a different storyline. But Steins;Gate or Mushishi or Death Note, for example, are mere adaptation...

Anyway i think you already know that, so that just me being stubborn, i presume you want anime that are not remake or sequel of a previous anime or something like that. I should have get it, the list being an top 50 “initial” serie and not “original” serie, so don’t mind me...

Well, i don't get it...
I mean, many of them are just adaptation from a manga, visual novel or light novel ; so, not really the "beginnings of their respective franchises" or did i miss something ?

So, the Berlinale is going on and for the moment we have :

An extract from Brillante Mendoza “Captive” a movie about the Abu Sayyaf group.

and another one here :

Could be good, Kinatay was quite impressive, and of course there is Isabelle Huppert.

-Tsui Hark remake of his own remake of Dragon Inn : “Flying Swords of Dragon Gate 3D“
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veI3veD-JrE
Seems that once again he has gone over the top with the cheap CGI.

And if you can’t get enough of cheap 3d remake here is the teaser for the new Ringu book adaptation
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UchvUvdtdac
(No relation with the berlinade but i did find it funny –the horror of the 404 error-)

I doubt anyone has still any interest for it, but there is also “out of competition” the new Zhang Yimou movie : "The Flowers of War" an another film about the japanese occupation of Nanjing.

And that's all for now...

Nice idea, but it seems to me that "Le prix du danger" is adapted from a short story of Robert Sheckley while Running Man is an official adaption of the Stephen King book (and unofficially an adaptation of Robotron...)

Ok, let's begin with a poll
Because guns are cool, who is the best current "action" director :

Johnny To, Tsui Hark or John Woo ? (or someone else?)

I vote Johnny To ! (and Hark close second because "Time and Tide" is one the greatest action movie, but on the whole, he is too inconsistent in quality.)

It seems broken, the first one "Riben guizi", for example, has only been seen by one people and favorite by the same one. However the checks counter and favs counter indicate 20 checks and 20 favs.

I Hope they fix that when they will have some time.

That’s great someone else think this list useful. I was feeling quite weird liking this.
And by the way, the original source for the list should be : http://www.koreafilm.org/feature/100.asp
where they explain why they choose these titles.

Hi , I’m always happy to see new lists, and if you got the time there is two I would love to see include “the Cinema Tropical 2000’s list” here : http://www.buenosairesherald.com/BreakingNews/View/18929

And the FESPACO award

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_FESPACO_award_winners
or any other African movie award you could may know.

On the unhappy side, I began to be lost with the “tab” for example why “Kinema Jumpo” or “Russian Guild Of Film Critics” are on “institute tab” and not on “critics tab”. Just a thought but maybe some tab like “national critic tab” “national award tab” or “newspaper list tab” would be clearer. Anyway keep up the good work. :)
