I just finished watching "The Shawshank Redemption" (released 1994). And WOW. just WOW. One of the best movies EVER made. Really, this gets 10/10. And I have never rated any live action movie this high. Ever. Old is gold.

Edit: rating changed to 10.5/10

I still need to watch that...

So now you see why everything I watch comes from 70s to ~2008 only :p
Maybe not as pleasing on the eyes, but its still better than the newer shit they pump out.

It was a 720p BD rip. I will buy the blu ray when I have enough cash for it. ^__^ (It might be a remaster, but quality is top notch)

And also listening to 'Filament' by Yousei Teikoku after the movie ending makes it more awesome. (Mirai Nikki ending theme, I think). But this is a effect of being a otaku ~desu.

Also since the movie is mainly dialogue-based. so you can ignore video quality if you want.

Stop calling yourself a nerd in general.

No idea. But trying to drive a car around in any of the big cities - Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka, etc - is not going to work. I know you're American, so you probably don't really 'get' public transport in the same way people from Europe or Asia do, but going by train is far, far more efficient (and definitely cheaper). It is without a doubt the best way to get around here, and actually kind of fun (provided you avoid rush hour, in which case it can be a bit difficult ). A lot of trains are probably more comfortable than any car, as well (if you're sitting down, of course).

The public transport system does take a little bit of getting used to - it took me a couple of attempts to work out the difference between local, express, and limited express trains - but it's not that hard really, and worth the effort. Most signs are in English as well as Japanese too, which really helps.

I definitely agree with Bob's assessment. I'm not well travelled at all -- I've spent most of my life in Florida, 2 years in southern California, and a few months in Philadelphia -- and my trip to Tokyo was both my first experience outside of the U.S. and my first experience with public transportation. But I will say that once we got into the swing of things there, taking trains everywhere was great. If I can figure it out and get used to it, anyone can. Very stress free compared to driving around central Florida. The Tokyo City Atlas is an excellent choice to have when getting around the city. It includes a complete map of the rail lines, which makes planning travel routes a hell of a lot easier.

I think someone is REALLY into Naruto, cause ever since yesterday or so there's been probably hundreds of x-rated Naruto fan pics uploaded to Sankaku....

Reaper of Souls was damn worth it. Lots of end game content and nice storyline. Almost died few times but Stone still lives.

Time to relax for the rest of the night.
