    Same. I'd rather endure the breaks in the film (which can be handy to allow time to get snacks/answer Nature's call, etc anyway) than have to pay for the channel...especially as my parents control the sky in my house and therefore I don't have that option in the first place :lol:

    It's not an Asian film, but it's relevant, so I'm putting it here. This afternoon (Tuesday) BBC2 are showing the 1964 version of Seance on a Wet Afternoon, based on the same novel as Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Seance, and starring Richard Attenborough. It starts at 1.35 p.m. Check it out if you can, 'cos it makes an interesting comparision piece with the Kurosawa film.

    Wish I'd been paying attention to this thread so I could've caught Azumi. It's one of those films I always consider buying but then put it back in the rack in favour of something else. Would've been nice to see it for free :)

    Thanks for the Korean season listing. Sadly it seems like they've started strong with 3 of the best in a row only to end with a whimper with the somewhat underwhelming Tell Me Something.

    Hopefully this'll mean they'll do number 2 also as I haven't seen that yet.

    Let's hope so - can't see nowt about it in the listings though, maybe they'll do it next week sometime, that'd be cool :D

    Anyone who misses Ju-on: The Grudge tonight can catch it again on Saturday night, according to the listings :D

    Seeing Juon The Grudge 2 has only just been released on DVD here (as The Grudge 2, naturally, just to confuse people), I suspect it'll be a while till it pops up on TV. When I last looked in Sainsbury's at the weekend, it was about their number 14 highest-selling DVD of the week.

    Probably 'cos of that misleading title, mind.

  19. addyboy Caissa's Angel of Death

    I was lucky enough to catch Azumi on Film 4 new years eve actually!

    Great stuff - see in the bells on Beeb 1, then as that show ends switch over to a cool sword play film (its the kind of non-intellectual entertainment that is very good for a night like new years)
