CLINT SAYS: WAR IS STUPID


LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA, Clint Eastwood's movie covering the Japanese half of the battle for Iwo Jima, has had its release date moved from January to December in order to get it in the running for an Oscar.

HogaCentral reports that it just held its world premiere in Japan (where it will open on December 9) and Clint Eastwood made all kinds of fabulously incisive comments, like, "the film depicts how meaningless the war is," and "I would like to dedicate this movie to all the young people who participated in the war." Yeah man, war - what exactly is it good for.

Ken Watanabe was there but conspicuously absent was Shido Nakamura, who appears in the movie (yay!) but whose recent marital difficulties (like cheating) have made him paparazzi bait. :hehe: :hehe:

:lol:

I'm surprised they didn't reedit the film to cut is character out or made him the 1st victim of the fight. :sweat:

i think he's playing the BAD Japanese soldier. he was also absent for the Death Note publicity stints. He did voiced Ryuk the death god right?

btw.. have you watched Letters from Iwo Jima trailer/press con/red carpet? somehow the coverage of Clint Eastwood in Japan makes him come across like warm,lovable ojichan (proof: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMEmymNOzsM&NR ).
here's the full trailer if you guys are interested : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCZLkxYZmx0

btw... The Departed sucks. its not an adaptation. its a total ripp off from the ORIGINAL Infernal Affairs. lost my respect for martin scorcesse :angry:

Yeah, it was pretty good... A little long at 2-1/2 hours, though. :sweat:

whoa! that is pretty long....well at least you enjoyed it! but i can appreciate the comment...i don't really care for long films myself.....2 hours is usually the zero barrier point after that. it's a bit much.

like how they went back to the aston martin.

Especially if you've had one of those big, honkin' sodas from the refreshment stand.

Actually, it wasn't that bad: the time passed rather quickly.

He didn't have it long. :beaten:

Haven't seen that flick.

She was good in Casino Royale, though I thought her eye makeup was overdone: too smoky... Looked like she had two black eyes. :beaten:

Being a guy, I didn't really notice... :beaten:

But I can also safely say that they were not panties.

yeah when you watch a film you really gotta strategize on the soda action....i had a medium ice tea when i watched the geisha documentary and it was about 2 hours and by the end i was ready to bolt to the restroom.
