    Watched 47 Ronin, starring Keanu Reeves and Hiroyuki Sanada, tonight. I enjoy this style of action movie so I liked it. Worth checking out if you enjoy fantasy action movies. I love them so I figured I'd at least be entertained. Maybe The Swordsman next if I'm up for a subbed movie.

    My take is that ripping off a streaming giant for millions is cool and shouldn’t be illegal, but making a bad 47 Ronin movie should land you in the prison from Face/Off.

    I am a big fan of the documentary Side by Side, where Keanu talks to different directors and cinematographers (including Lynch and Mann and others) about digital vs film, and this now-convicted guy is randomly there in part because Keanu was shooting 47 Ronin at the time. Anyway see Side by Side

    If you watch 47 Ronin (2013), the rabbithole you go down learning about director Carl Rinsch's descent into drug-fueled psychosis during filming, being removed from the project during editing and reshooting, and eventually his wife divorcing him over it all, is more dramatic than the film itself. /1

    There is a movie on Netflix called Blades of the 47 Ronin, which bills itself as a sequel to 47 Ronin... It has Marc Dacascos in it... I am sorely tempted, even though I know it will be terrible.

    I'm half-watching that shit 47 Ronin with Keanu. Man, that could've been a cool film. I legit think there's room for a Hollywood take on the story -- there's been countless adaptations already, there is room for a different take with a good cast like Reeves, Asano, Kikuchi, and Sanada. Oh well tho!

    This is way crazier than a Hollywood take on Chūshingura (47 Ronin), which was entertaining but not spectacular (Keanu Reeves and Hiroyuki Sanada do the heavy lifting in the film). It was a box office bomb, but Netflix made a sequel to it so they could recoup what Rinsch stole from them. WILD. /end

    Here's a thread of Movies I Adore That Most Folks Seem To Despise: We'll start with 47 Ronin. It gets panned for being "unrealistic", because it's ostensibly based on a true story. It's a fantasy movie. And a beautiful one! It is to the 47 Ronin story what 300 was to the Battle of Thermopylae.
