i thought he was exactly like he was in Pride.

he's more romantic in Pride but not in Karei naru Ichizoku. his expressions might be same in almost all of his dramas but there was still a lil' bit different in this drama. we can't change the way we smile, the way we laugh etc. in just a sudden time, deshou? :sweat: ermm btw, it's just my opinion.. :mrgreen:

im pretty harsh on actor/esses... i wont say that your opinion is wrong... but it is the job of an actor to act.. not to be as they naturally would be. but i also blame the rampant type-casting in the drama industry.

i had a lot of picks in the rental today on what to watch tomorrow (crap, no holiday on staurdays) like Byakuyakou, 14 sai no haha, and Jikou Keisatsu.

i decided to watch Jikou Keisatsu due to what i've heard about it. though it might be nice to see the Takayuki in something depressing

meanwhile: i stopped after the first 10 minutes of special dorama Romeo&Juliet :bleh:

Everyone's got a perfect right to their own opinion, and I'm not saying you're right or wrong. But you've got me a bit puzzled here. (Maybe it's just the terminology.)

Earlier today you said:

I watched 10 minutes of byakuyakou and deleted it. I'm sad two of my most favorite actors had to be cast in such a depressing drama. I'm just not into self flagellation these days. there is enough depression in the world without having to succumb to that in my entertainment also.

But weren't you the guy who went on about how wonderful, that toe tapping, side splittin', laugh fest called "Sekai no Chuushin de Ai wo Sakebu" was?

And yeah... though a tragic story, I thought "Byakuyakou" was a whole lot better, a whole lot more interesting, than "Sekia no Chuushin...".

Geez, you took the words right out of my mouth.

Odd. :headscratch:

You think so?! I dunno... I'm finding the second one kinda stale after the first... tho I will agree that MatsuJun DOES look better in the second one.

I don't think season 2 is better personally it was good but I much prefered season 1. Yet everyone's entitled to their opinion ^_^

Yea, I agree.

I'm on epi 6 now. I'm gonna try to finish it today... if I can gather enough hours.

starting to watch HYD2

Just finished watching Haikei, Chichiue-sama.

It has a slow start but I was soon drawn in by the interesting characters. A really enjoyable and underrated show.

After reading the synopsis of Byakuyakou I was already feeling that this was another typical Japanese 'let's really depress everybody' drama. And I was not disappointed as I said after 10 minutes of putting me right into the proper depressedd perspective. Moreover, it was nothing more than a cheap attempt to take advantage of the super magnifiscence of Crying Out Love by putting these two superb actors in such a mediocre plot. Crying (the drama not the poor movie substitute) was a masterpiece of cynematography, acting, writing, directing and all the arts involved in creating such magnifiscence. Although I admit the ending was depressing, that was overriden by the purity and depth of the emotions of the lovers.

Ralph.

Uh-huh. K.

Epi 7 of HYD2. :victory:

Rewatching Nodame while overhauling all of the subs for this drama... I think it's worth it. :thumbsup:

Didn't you just recently re-watch Swing Girls as well? :rofl: Getting on that Juri-kick again, eh?

Just finished epi 8 of HYD2. I think that's all I can get in tonight.

Wynter wrote:Didn't you just recently re-watch Swing Girls as well?

Yesterday. :)

:rofl: Getting on that Juri-kick again, eh?

Again?

I haven't been off of it.



After three days of watching/editing, Episode 1 is done. :sweat: Hopefully, I can get through the other episodes quicker, now that I know what my plan of attack is...

But I didn't find the subs problematic... why are you re-editing them?

Sounds great. Ive gotten some of your redoes before from Geezer!

I am deep into Nodame!! I love it love it love it!! :woot: :woot:

Only 3 eps left!

Just finished Kekkon dekinai, , boy was that great!! The way they left the ending kind of up in the air, hopefully, they'll be a Kekkon dekinai 2 :fingerscrossed:

Wynter wrote:But I didn't find the subs problematic... why are you re-editing them?

Because I'm Type A and such a wonderful drama deserves a better set of subtitles...

I agree with beem. The subs quality was definitely up and down...
