only reason i watched this movie was because i heard they used a lot of Supercar tracks... and for a sports movie, it is still verrrry good

Sakuran
Koizora
Adrift in Tokyo
Laundry
These are all really good. I cried in them!

All About Lily Chou-Chou is probably my favourite movie of all time even though it's damn depressing. I'm also into pretty much anything by Shunji Iwai, Takashi Miike, and Shinya Tsukamoto.
Theres a new one coming out called yatterman it looks like it will be funny heres a link:

*tada kimi wo aishiteru
*ima ai ni yukimasu
*death note
*sekai no chuushin de ai wo sakebu
*koizora
Nana, both movies
Kids
Hebi ni piasu
"30"
and Kisu to Kizu

I'd recommend:
- Tada Kimi wo Aishiteru ~Heavenly Forest~: bittersweet!
- Ima, Ai ni Yukimasu: sad but also beautiful~
- Taiyou no Uta: cute, but also a bit sad <3
- Shinobi: traditionally themed movie about clan wars and there's a Romeo & Juliet-love, too...it's a little cruel but I found it awesome and kind of artistic!
- Lovely Complex: very funny and cute movie!
I just realized I seem to have a thing for "bittersweet" movies...![]()
Laugh and the world laughs with you.

Don't want to sound like a boring old man but if haven't seen the old Kurosawa classics,7 Samurai,Yojimbo etc you really should.....on a more recent tip Kamikaze Girls and Memories of Matsuko are both charming,very colourful and 'pop' but not at all trite.But I always come back to the old samurai movies anything by Hideo Gosha always worth watching also Kenji Misumi especially the Kozurei Okami(Lone Wolf and Cub) series my all time favourite movies

One movie that came out last week in Japan that is classsified as a hollywood film costing millions of dollars is 'Kamui Gaiden'..Its based off the manga if you've read it...with new special effects....
the main actor is kenichi-san...ie: L from death note

ALWAYS Sunset on third street
Death Note
Detroit Metal City
Adrift in Tokyo
Negative Happy Chainsaw Edge
Rainbow Song
I'd recommend Tokyo Story, although the pacing may seem to some as slow, it is regarded as one of the best movies of all time.
