Haha, it was a combo of copying and pasting and adding my own opinions.
But yeah, I loved Ichi The Killer (even though I don't like that sado/maso stuff either). Sometimes I feel guilty about liking it, haha. Did you see the uncut version? I always try to make sure that people see that one, because the cut one makes the story more confusing. Well done on winning the animated version from Ebay by the way. Looks awesome!
Hahaha,I always felt guilty so I made all my friends like it too,feel much better now!Uncut version,what's the difference??You seen the animated one?
The cut version of Ichi is 120 minutes compared to 129 uncut... you're probably saying to yourself that I am just a sick freak who is violence mad, but it is not that at all, hehe. Violence is a part of the characters in the movie and Miike deliberatley pushed the violence to the extreme to express their psychotic nature in full. Without the missing scenes, the movie doesn't hit home as much... like, Kakihara is played out to be a pain loving psycho, who loves receiving pain as much as dishing it out. The violence is what makes his character. It would be like Rocky not being a boxer in the movie, you're just left kind of scratching your head.
If you saw the horrific nipple slicing scene, then you saw the uncut version, haha. I think they cut that out of the edited version...
Never saw the animation, but it looks real good. Have you received your copy yet?
By the way, I added a couple more movies to the list in my earlier post.
