My boxing trainer, Chris Cariaso, won his match at the San Francisco Golden Gloves last night. I was there in the 8th row cheering like a loon and having multiple Rocky-gasms. Boxing rules OK.
Lastly, Godzilla Final Wars is the "Mutantou" movie of the millennium and the Sayonara Jupiter for a new generation. Not be missed. But it only really matters what Kojiro Abe thinks...
GFW's playing in L.A. in June. I hope I can escape jury duty and catch it...I'm more hyped about GFW than ROTS. What'd you think of Sin City?

Will Final Wars play throughout the country, or will we have to wait for video?

Probably video, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a limited release.

Nothing really set in stone yet for GFW. There's still a possibility Sony might give it a wide theatrical release like they did for Godzilla 2000. I've watched several clips of GFW and think it looks awesome.
And how is The Fall of Ako Castle? It's definitely one of Fukasaku's lesser known films and I thought Chushingura Gaiden Yotsuya Kaidan (Crest of Betrayal) was Fukasaku's version of the Chushingura legend. Hey Patrick, how's about asking the good people at Adness to release Crest of Betrayal to DVD? I really love that movie and yearn for a decent quality, subtitled release.
