Blood is just red sweat.
This should be a thread to list anything, movie, manga or even anime that reminds you of Vagabond. I would love to hear your thoughts, as I'm sure there are a lot of movies out there I have yet to see.
I'm traveling a lot to Asia, especially Malaysia, Hong Kong and Japan. And I sure wanna spend a grand on must see movies next time I'm in Asia. If theres something you suggest and it's not related to Vagabond, please PM me, or post it in another thread.
Since I'm a huge fan of Hong-Kong movies, and watch anything Asian, be it Johnnie or Ryuhei Kitamura movies, a friend of mine asked me to get my hand on a Korean movie, "Fighter in The Wind", or "Baramui Fighter" as it's called some places.
I was bored the day I got back from Malaysia 3-4 years ago, and I decided to watch this movie, before giving it to my friend. And after only a minute I was completely dragged in! For those who want to see the movie first, I suggest you to do it, and then come back and read further. I will not spoil the plot, I will just point out things that reminds me of Vagabond and vice versea.
-Baramui Fighter is not a sword/katana movie, but it is a sort of, "way of the samurai" movie if you know what I mean. Choi Bae Dal is the protagonist. The movie is set after the end of WWII, or in the last of it, this was the
first thing I thought about after I read Vagabond.
-Bae Dal is a "dojoyaburi". it means he challenges a dojo's sensei.
-A guy tries to rob him, but then join him. This guy is a joke basically. I can say he somehow did remind me of someone...
-Bae Dal challenges someone later and lose...
-He thinks a lot of a chick called Yoko.. But, NO! He must focus on his training.,,
-He train and develop his own style, and he even climb the mountains.... Now this is something.
-Then he comes back much stronger and less "wild" even though he looks like an animal...
Now I don't remember everything in the movie, since it's been ages I first saw this movie. But seriously, go see it. It doesn't contain long heavy fight scenes, but the fight scenes are rather realistic, short and brutal. So don't expect Crouching Tiger style fight scene.
