And this morning - all too predictably - I find myself perusing the Feudal Japanese range.

Say slowly

The interior scenes in Ran are wonderful; like watching a chess game. But the battle scenes are an embarrassment (like certain others from the same director).

It's a movie not a documentary. Spectacle is more important than accuracy.

Would be nice to have a movie depict a Sengoku Jidai battle accurately none the less.

Kawanakajima (pick any of them), maybe.

I'm not sure you'd find many extras volunteering for the head-chopping.

Not THAT accurately!!!


Ran already broke the most expensive film in Japanese history record by a long shot.

Maybe CGI and Anime will tackle some big panoramic battle scenes in future.
