Sure, there was the Magnificent Seven... but that didn't have George Clooney.
Seppuku, anyone?

They sure are.
I love the way they fold it hundreds of times, and make it strong. Yoshindo Yoshihara is a master of the art.

I met him at a sword show in SF years ago. I have so much respect for the man.

Ah. It's hard to tell in that picture whether it has the handle wrapped or not.
Anyway, the movie industry has to get more creative, and stop all this remake crap.
Except Batman. Because Batman is good. |

no they werent. there were about as many remakes...just not in the comic book department. it only seems that way because the quality films were the only one to sustain the test of time.
in terms of better movies, the '90s had two really good years ('94 and '99)...and the rest were alright.
