i totally agree with u!!! not only does the packaging sucks, the naming of certain dramas really put me off! for example, aya ueto's aim for the ace (ace wo narae) is renamed as target general or something like tt and the chinese name is mu biao zhu jiang :usuck: wtf?!?!

I'm not too sure as I don't go there often. But I did see it selling at Kino today for about $26.90 if I'm not wrong... :sweat:

what :shocked: ?? oh my god :banghead: !!! how come like that? that means we won't be seeing all japanese dramas in S'pore anymore?? oh dear!! then how are we going see them?? :shocked: :shakehead:

tata...(",)

If I wasn't wrong, the ban was lifted some time ago already.

Lmao :rofl:. Either the standard of packaging has dropped or the pirates have started to make the packaging more attractive to attract people to buy them. :hehe:

I personally prefer DVD version cos it is of higher quality (and more expensive :beaten:). But if there is no DVD version, there is no choice but to purchase the VCD version.

So I see.... Wanna get a look at the VCD's packaging then, hahaha

But I think the DVD version's cover is abit too darkish red, don't you think so? Too dull... :doh:

i finished watching "Last Quarter" just now !!!
how do i say it ... the whole show is really full of mystery ..
hehez ... when i watch to the end , i would have tat kind of "OH I SEE" kinda feeling ... hahaz .. it's great ~~ really special plot .. :rolly:

It's kinda cool right!? Special plot!!! That's why I'm attracted to this movie after watching it in the cinema :hehe:

yup ~~~ the movie's cool ~~~
really special ~~ i didn't know Nari's character has more scenes than Hyde ..
hehez .. but the movie's great !

Yeah... I thought that Hyde's appearance in the movie will be more than Hiroki's.... Hyde just appeared in the front part of the movie and just a few appearance made then... without saying anything... Just his "soul" appearing right... So bored... Wanna see more acting from Hyde... But I really like the idea in the end as Hiroki turned out to be Chiaki's brother in her last life... Miracle right?! Haha :applaud: Creative story ROCKZx :metaldevil:

opps !!! zi91 u said the ending out ~~
think u better write a "SPOILERS ALERT" on top of the msg ..
or the best is make the "ending part" small words ..
in case some ppl wanna watch this movie ... heez ... :rolly:

Hi sashimi!

Yeah, this movie was out in May 2005 in Singapore but in October 2004 in Japan. It was not noticed by MANY people. I think that people might think that the storyline is either boring or not realistic, but it attracts me :woot: . There're ads in I-weekly and U-weekly... I'd won a pair of tickets in U-Weekly's lucky draw, and I was like jumping up and down when I received the letter :dancing: !!! Hahaha :hehe: There're only about 40 ppl in the cinema and it was so fun, coz there was only few ppl and you can talk loud without anyone looking at you, hahaha :rofl:

Hahaha :hehe: But if they are attracted to the special ending and go to watch this movie, it's alright then :naughty:

But it's a very unique ending right?? The ending was sweet and a miracle too :dancing:

O..I don't read I or U weekly though. haha. Yeah, Hideaki Ito acts in Umizaru. He is one of my fave actors! First saw him in Onmyoji. I have that vcd. Nice movie :mrgreen: Yeah, it has the movie and drama version for umizaru (and onmyoji as well).

for me i hardly watch japanese horror movies in cinemas.. usually i try not to buy scares with 8 bucks.. i may watch it if it shows on national tv. but they always show the movie at 10 something :sweat: at night.. :fingerscrossed:

sashimi, u laugh in the cinemas while watching horror movies? oops... that's 'innovative' of you... hahaz.. :bow:

i've also watched Umizaru in the cinemas and bought the dvd.. i thought it was quite a good movie... :victory:
