Merriweather Post Pavilion has received a lot of backlash on this site. I'mean not sure why it gets so much criticism, myself. I hope that Merriweather Post Pavilion gets a better average rating over time, though. It deserves to have a higher rating.
In a way, yeah. I got a Laserdisc player awhile back, and it got me back into wathing films, including stuff I'd ordinarily never watch. Ran included, and yeah, its a remarkable film, made even moreso when you realize Kurosawa tried to get that film made for a decade, and was nearly blind by the time he finally got to make it.
Thanks. I only got into Chance randomly via hearing the song No Problem but it's just such a song full of epic feeling and confidence that it gives me a huge boost every time I hear it. I like happy songs. :)
Also, Merry Christmas!! :)
