Battle Royale von 2000 mit Takeshi Kitano ist, außerhalb seines Heimatlandes, wohl einer der bekanntesten Filme Japans. Eine ganze Schulklasse wird während eines vermeintlichen Schulausfluges betäubt und auf eine abgelegene Insel gebracht. Die Aufgabe ist klar, bis zum Morgengrauen überleben. Allerdings kann nur einer die Insel wieder verlassen. Ein absurdes Spiel beginnt, in dem sich die Klassenkameraden nach und nach gegenseitig töten, um zu gewinnen. Wer wird am Ende das Battle Royale überleben? Sir Pommes und Dengeki Gamer haben sich für diese Ausgabe von Dorama Rama auf die (Podcast-) Insel begeben und sich den Kultklassiker noch einmal angesehen. aHatofMedia wünscht viel Spaß. 0:00:00 Begrüßung 0:02:00 Vorabinfos 0:24:50 Der Film 1:21:41 Spoiler 1:43:57 Fazit 1:53:56 Verabschiedung

durée : 00:03:42 - Le Regard culturel - par : Lucile Commeaux - Le réalisateur japonais Takeshi Kitano livre sur la plateforme Prime un film étrange, "Broken Rage", qui ressemble d'abord à un thriller sérieux de yakuzas, puis à sa parodie burlesque — sauf que c'est plus intéressant et compliqué que ça.
En el programa de hoy comentamos la nueva película de Marvel Studios: Capitán América: Brave New World y también del nuevo estreno de terror en cines "The Monkey" y muchas cosas más!!!
It's all about sequins and psychic murder-dolls on this week's Movie Squad podcast! First up, Tristan Fidler regales Breakfast host Pamela Boland with a review of The Last Showgirl, starring Pamela Anderson as a fading burlesque dancer on the Las Vegas strip. It's the performance that plunged Pam (Anderson, not Boland) into the awards season conversation. Does it sparkle for Tristan? Then, Simon Miraudo reviews director Osgood Perkins' follow-up to 2024's Longlegs: The Monkey, based on the Stephen King short story about a wind-up toy that randomly kills anyone in its general vicinity. Simon says the vibes are definitely ‘Beetlejuice', but which of the two Blockbuster Babes found it overly obnoxious? For answers relating to these new cinema releases, make sure you listen in! Then, stay tuned for an extended pod-exclusive conversation about The Monkey, as well as a bonus review of the new Takeshi Kitano two-parter, Broken Rage, now available to stream on Amazon Prime Video. Be sure to tune in to RTRFM every Friday at 7:30am to hear Movie Squad live on Breakfast with Pam! And find out more about Movie Squad's curation of Throwback Thursdays at Joondalup Festival here! Plus, don't forget VHS Tracking's Trash Classics screening series at Luna Palace Cinemas, which includes the 21 Feb session of Showgirls!
Ep 203 di Sul Divano di Ale vi porto dove la sala non può arrivare. Difatti vi parlo del nuovo film di Takeshi Kitano che è tra Outrage e Glory to the Filmmaker! Il regista giapponese fa un film completamente anarchico e in tutta franchezza me ne sono innamorato. Vi propongo anche un CULTONE. Spazio a Tank Girl, film del 1995 adattamento dell'omonimo fumetto di Alan Martin e Jamie Hewlett. Cosa sarebbe? Avete presente Mad Max? Perfetto, metteteci dentro una follia punk anni 90 e il gioco è fatto!L'ultima recensione tratta però un film che è in sala. Torna l'MCU con Captain America: Brave New World. Il film non è coraggioso e non propone nemmeno un mondo così nuovo.In puntata c'è spazio anche per qualche chiacchiera varia sul mondo del cinema come ad esempio: che fine ha fatto James Bond e perché a Barbara Broccoli non vanno proprio giù quei birichini di Amazon?Link Utili:Patreon Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Questa è sempre più una trasmissione per content creatore di YouTube e di lamentele sulle serie tv, ma svolte con agilità queste parti si può con successo passare ai film della settimana: Captain America: Brave New Wrold, un film veramente timido; Strange Darling un buon film di tensione americano; ma soprattutto esce su Prime Video Broken Rage, il nuovo film demenziale di Takeshi Kitano
Insieme a Michela Gorini ripassiamo alcune delle parti più interessanti di un libro intitolato "L'occhio del regista" dove il critico cinematografico Laurent Tirard ha raccolto in una serie di interviste le rivelazioni e i consigli pratici di tanti importanti registi che hanno fatto la storia del cinema. In particolare parleremo di Martin Scorsese, Pedro Almodovar, Woody Allen, Sidney Pollack, Fratelli Coen, Win Wenders, David Lynch, Bernardo Bertolucci, David Cronenberg, Takeshi Kitano e Roman Polanski.
Jim and Patrick discuss Takeshi Kitano's existential yakuza drama Sonatine, as well as a sex comedy that might generously be considered "odd."
Kris and David are guestless as we discuss the week-plus that was October 21-31, 1987. Topics of discussion include:The Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission coming down hard on pro wrestling, especially the WWF.Strike Force winning the WWF Tag Team Titles from the Hart Foundation.The debut of the Glamour Girls in that gimmick.Hacksaw Jim Duggan and King Harley Race kicking off their feud.Riki Choshu's return to NJPW TV not reaping the ratings rewards that NJPW and TV Asahi were hoping for.Takeshi Kitano getting into pro wrestling.Bob Backlund losing his mind on ICW TV when the Iron Sheik claims that he paid off Arnold Skaaland in 1983.Rip Tyler waxing poetic about Bob Sweetan, plus a young Kenny Bolin interviews Nick and George Gulas, all on WOW TV.Jerry Lawler "shoots" on Hector Guerrero in a classic segment on Memphis TV.The Original Midnight Express win the AWA World Tag Team Titles from Bill Dundee and Jerry Lawler.The UWF is on death's door as JCP winds down UWF-branded shows.Mighty Wilbur finally has enough of “Puddin' Head” Paul Jones.This was an extremely fun show, so don't miss out!!!Timestamps:0:00:00 Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission & WWF1:28:06 Int'l: AJPW, NJPW, Takeshi Kitano, Stampede, EMLL, UWA, & WWC1:55:12 Classic Commercial Break1:59:26 Halftime: Ring Boys lawsuit edition3:33:57 Other USA: ICW, Continental, WOW, CWA/Memphis, Wild West, WCCW, Central States, AWA, & Portland5:06:14 Jim Crockett PromotionsTo support the show and get access to exclusive rewards like special members-only monthly themed shows, go to our Patreon page at Patreon.com/BetweenTheSheets and become an ongoing Patron.

The year 2021: the NAS epidemic sweeps the world, and our Johnny (Keanu Reeves) is a sought-after data courier, smuggling illicit information across borders and shielding it against the shady corporations who seek to abuse it.

What secrets is Johnny storing to send such fire power after him? Watch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFJY_BZ55sI ********PLOT SPOILER ALERT******** The cure for deadly NAS is buried in Johnny's noodle, and the corpos want to keep the population under their thumb – as per our own world. Fortunately, Johnny has powerful allies in Jane (Dina Meyer), J-Bone (Ice-T), and a tricked-out dolphin with all the latest gadgets. Wow! Will they release the cure and change the world, or will Johnny lose his head? Did the panel enjoy this week's cinematic serving? Could they find a way to improve the villainous plan? And who will be named this week's most diabolical (person/podcast((er)))? https://twitter.com/diabolicalpod https://www.instagram.com/diabolicalpod/ https://www.facebook.com/diabolicalpod Email diabolicalpod@gmail.com
Journalist and writer Séamus Malekafzali returns to the program to discuss Johnny Mnemonic. Directed by artist Robert Longo and adapted by William Gibson from his own short story, the film was met with lukewarm box office reception and critical derision upon initial release, but has since endured as a classic of 90s cyberpunk aesthetics and startling prescience in its depiction of a 21st century dystopia overrun with corporate malfeasance, an increasingly atomized technological existence, and a global pandemic overwhelming the world's healthcare systems. We discuss the work of William Gibson, pioneer and godfather of cyberpunk; how the film functions as an extension of the worlds he created with his landmark debut novel Neuromancer, and how the film honors both his vision and distinctive style. Then, we praise the incredible cast of characters, led by a deliberately mannered Keanu Reeves performance, with support from Dina Meyer, a crazed Dolph Lundgren, resistance leader Ice-T, and the great Udo Kier. Finally, we discuss the film's breathtaking production design and worldbuiliding, the merits of art that swings for the fences, and the exceptional experience of viewing the film in its Black & White version (as originally intended by Longo, if he had been granted full control of the film). Watch Robert Longo, Keanu Reeves, and William Gibson in conversation for the Black & White release of the film.

Going Back to (Look at) the Future month continues with 1995's somewhat-reclaimed Johnny Mnemonic! Ben and Brady discuss the William Gibson-penned, Robert Longo-directed, Keanu Reeves-starring, notorious cyberpunk flop that predicted a 2021 that included a global pandemic... hmm! Directed by Robert Longo and written by William Gibson, adapting his own short story. Starring Keanu Reeves, Takeshi Kitano, Dolph Lundgren, Ice-T and Dina Meyer.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we dive into some of cinema's biggest box office failures and explore whether they deserve a second chance. Unfortunately, we bid ado to “Re-May'-ke” month with a remake of one of the most quintessential anime films of all time, Ghost in the Shell. You may have heard about this one during its production, as the film was controversial for some of its casting choices. Was the outrage justified? Did the film live up to the high expectations of the original anime? To help answer these questions and more, we are happy to bring back Jose from Watch/Skip+ to assist in the discussion.Ghost in the Shell is directed by Rupert Sanders and stars Scarlett Johansson, Takeshi Kitano, Michael Pitt, Pilou Askaek, Chin Han, and Juliette BinocheMake sure to check out Jose on Watch/Skip+ and make sure to drop them a review!

For this week's episode of Unclear and Present Danger, we watched “Johnny Mnemonic,” a 1995 cyberpunk action film directed by Robert Longo and adapted from a William Gibson short story of the same name, by Gibson himself. “Johnny Mnemonic” stars Keanu Reeves, Dolph Lundgren, Takeshi Kitano, Ice-T and Dina Meyer.In “Johnny Mnemonic,” Keanu Reeves plays Johnny, a “mnemonic courier” who transports sensitive data for corporations via storage implant in his brain. He takes a job that requires him to store too much memory, threatening his life if he can't make the delivery as quickly as possible. While getting the data, his clients are attacked and killed by the yakuza. Johnny goes on the run, where he is betrayed by his handler, befriended by Jane, a cybernetically-enhanced bodyguard, and brought to the attention of the Lo-Teks, an anti-establishment group.They discover that the data Johnny holds is a stolen cure to a technological disease that afflicts much of the planet. The creator, a mega-corporation called Pharmakom, refuses to release the cure because they are profiting off of the treatments. As Johnny is hunted by hired assassins for Pharmakom, he and his allies fight to disseminate the cure and save Johnny's life.The tagline for “Johnny Mnemonic” was “The hottest data on Earth, in the coolest head in town.” You can find “Johnny Mnemonic” to rent or buy on demand at iTunes and Amazon.For our next episode, we are watching “A Time to Kill,” directed by Joel Schumacher.

Random movie 3059 on Metacritic's all time movie list was The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi. Released in 2003, it is a vibrant, action-packed film directed by and starring Takeshi Kitano. This Japanese drama brings to life the story of Zatoichi, a blind masseur and master swordsman who wanders into a town controlled by warring gangs.

Suzanne Collins we coming for you and to get Battle Royale their whole damn royalty checks that they are owed. Movie Synopsis: Battle Royale is a 2000 Japanese action-thriller film[4][5] directed by Kinji Fukasaku, with a screenplay written by Kenta Fukasaku, based on the controversial 1999 novel by Koushun Takami. Starring Tatsuya Fujiwara, Aki Maeda, Tarō Yamamoto, and Takeshi Kitano, the film follows a group of junior-high-school students forced to fight to the death by the Japanese totalitarian government. The film drew controversy and was banned or excluded from distribution in several countries. Toei Company refused to sell the film to any United States distributor for over a decade due to concerns about potential controversy and lawsuits, until Anchor Bay Entertainment eventually acquired the film in 2010 for a direct-to-video release.
THIS WEEK: Violent Cop (1989), Boiling Point (1990), A Scene at the Sea (1991)We take a look at Takeshi Kitano's transition from TV funnyman to impromptu director to one of the greatest filmmakers of the 1990s. Support Optimism Vaccine on Patreon
