Okay,...A movie that has a tengu? I must see it! <br /><br />Okay, I have no idea what a tengu is, but I've seen the trailer and this movie really does look dream-like and amazing. If it's anything like Crouching Tiger/Hidden Dragon, I'll enjoy it.<br /><br />And I love the notion of a person's hatred being turned into a spider.Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14967821142796562697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-21357799568343068002013-11-18T18:26:46.202-07:002013-11-18T18:26:46.202-07:00Why 47 Ronin?

Glad to see he's plunging deep into the Asian/Action genre. His "Man of Tai Chi" looks really good too, and he directed it!Jay Noelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04757777693161610861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-87172580884188843452013-11-18T04:49:14.910-07:002013-11-18T04:49:14.910-07:00I want to see this!

Movie goers can be finicky and I've seen quite a couple great movies just not making the big bucks they deserve or enough to get a sequel.
