film: September 2007 Archives

I finally watched The Bourne Ultimatum, and I think It is one of the best action films I've seen in ages! I can't believe China is not putting this in theaters. Please everyone, go buy pirated DVDs of this film, its all over the place now. SARFT stands for State Administrations of Radio Film and Television (国家广电总局). I would like to say, if i ever become the president of China, I will fire everyone one in this place, along with people in Cultural department, and Transportation department here in Beijing.

Over the week, I enjoyed two brilliant anime films. Tekkonkinkreet is from the same people that made that cool tokyo piece in Animatrix, and Gedo Senki is made be Miyazaki's son Goro Miyazaki. I won't go into details on explaining what they're about, you can easily find their synopsis's online. One thing I loved, and the japanese are always good at, is this bit in Gedo Senki, where the girl is singing in an open grassland, just into the air, without instruments, very moving.
