My thoughts practically word for word, besides having seen the movie.Scarim Coral said:I got a few favourites like the guys from Samurai Champloo, the guys from the anime Samurai 7 (sorry I haven't seen the film yet) and Afro. However my favourite is Jack.
That pretty much hits the nail on the head. Well spoken !Alphavillain said:I'd go for the Takashi Shimura character, but otherwise I agree with your sentiments. I always think part of the appeal of the samurai is the pathos of a character who is one moment a revered member of society and the next expected to die for his master, or in the case of ronin for whatever cause he is fighting for. There is a severity and sadness to Shimura's charcter in that film which I think captures that.Euryptus said:Gorōbei Katayama from Kurosawa's Seven Samurai.

That is all.
Hiro Nakamura is the winner hands down.Realitycrash said:
