First order of business - anybody seen either of these movies?

Personally, I think that these are two amazing movies. A bit off-center, but I guess that's the kind of movie I like.

Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai stars Forrest Whitaker. I dunno, I'm really bad at describing movies, so just check it out on imdb.com. The soundtrack was done by RZA from Wu Tang. The movie itself is a bit strange, but amazing at the same time.

Dead Man stars Johnny Depp. Depp always takes the stranger roles, and this role is perfect for him. The movie is shot in black and white, and is technically a western.

Both the movies were done by Jim Jarmusch. I recommend that if you want to see some deep movies, movies that will get you thinking, see these two movies.

go now.

I heard Ghost Dog was good and I would have already seen it by now if it wasn't Forrest Whitaker starring in it.

I think it'd be worth your while to check it out. Forrest Whitaker actually plays a very introspective role. Makes you think. I think you could appreciate it.

Ghost Dog is pretty decent, but RZA must been trying to make the music as shitty as possible.

Triple A wouldn't like Ghost Dog because it's about Samurai. :rant:

Ghost Dog's soundtrack pissed me off.

"We wanted to blend an urban feel with traditional japanese culure."

Well, if that's ow they envision fusing hip hop and Japanese, they're morons. And the RZA is largely responsible.
