I definitely have a 'to-do' list for this site, which includes a lot of reviews and write-ups of obscure-- or generally unknown content from Japan (this includes a bit of 1970s Japanese crime TV!!). But lest we forget, an additional aim of this blog is to also promote my own film stuff. And yeah... time is always tight. But doing this is something I like.Nicholas Ruckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08364089506861324349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3545632185138234587.post-11531898998115004252007-06-21T00:56:00.000-07:002007-06-21T00:56:00.000-07:00there's a huge supply of things you'll need to sta...there's a huge supply of things you'll need to start covering... throw away your life, lock up your woman (with her permission) and get typing.<BR/><BR/>primarily, other than what i list above, i would like to see gaps filled and links made to films from various known (and unknown) directors work... capsule overviews, pictures, uploaded youtube trailers, all things linked in from other peoples reviews, in order to do capsule pieces on things that are going untouched, unlicensed. japanese language skills would be advantageous for the scene - and unfortunately lots of people that do speak both english and japanese (and love the films) are tied up with more fee-paying stuff... :)<BR/><BR/>logboyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3545632185138234587.post-62680148717020333392007-06-20T10:25:00.000-07:002007-06-20T10:25:00.000-07:00Hi logboy,Yeah, the BRANDED TO KILL soundtrack is ...Hi logboy,<BR/><BR/>Yeah, the BRANDED TO KILL soundtrack is really great. The fact that it is finally available as a whole is welcome after searching for it for so many years. <BR/><BR/>There's been a trend over the last couple of years in Japan where they've been doing 'omnibus' CDs of various soundtracks. The TOKYO DRIFTER theme is still only available that way and that was the same for BRANDED TO KILL. So it's nice that some of this stuff is coming out.<BR/><BR/>But you're right, the CDs come out in small runs and once they sell out, then that's it. <BR/><BR/>I do have "STYLE TO KILL", which was really an accompanyment to a whole Suzuki retro that was done a while back. I managed to track down the STYLE TO KILL book too. The disc is pretty good-- old Nikkatsu stuff, and I'll probably do a write-up on it in the future.<BR/><BR/>I also have two different FUKASAKU film collection-- or to be precise, one JINGI (NAKI TATAKAI and NO HAKABA and all of the rest) collection and a TOEI Action collection. Those will definitely be reviewed here soon.<BR/><BR/>Thanks, too, for the suggestions. I'll dig into some of the more esoteric Japanese only film and content stuff in the future. There's an endless supply of stuff out there!<BR/><BR/>-NicholasNicholas Ruckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08364089506861324349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3545632185138234587.post-24744765491701817442007-06-19T11:33:00.000-07:002007-06-19T11:33:00.000-07:00well, i've kind of been through a phase recently w...well, i've kind of been through a phase recently where certain soundtracks have stuck in my mind, and i've ended up buying a few. oddly, this one jumped out at me not that long back (that picture.... hmmmm) and it had me searching around a little more. <BR/><BR/>these soundtrack discs do seem to go out of print fairly quickly, but i would love to know more about these aspects of films - there one called 'style to kill' which looks good, one or two connected to fukasaku's 'battles without honor or humanity' and one for nakata's docu on pinku eiga that are in my mind right now. are there others you can steer me to or fill me in on? those hotwax ones too - if i didn't spend so much spare cash on DVDs i would probably have caught those magazines and CDs... if only. <BR/><BR/>oh, and i'm sure there's lots of accompanying aspects that don't get covered by those of us stuck in a non-japanese way of talking. would love to hear about things like film books, magazines, theatres, unsung heroes, studios, designers of posters, cultural contexts, genres, merchandise, online stores, japanese film blogs, all kinds and every kind of things that would improve the picture...<BR/><BR/>logboyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
