Thanks. And yeah, we should include those films too in this poll. Otherwise it would lead to a situation where one user is voting "comedy" because he loves My Sassy Girl and the other user is voting the same genre because he's a fan of Ichi the Killer...

Didn't realise we had quite a dedicated fan though...

I only found out about the genre about six months ago (when I saw Sex & Fury). So, I'm definitely a fan of the genre but hardly an expert.

No Korida) be a sexploitation film? There's a lot of porking in that movie... I mean... that's all that happens when you think about
it.

I always thought it was an excellent character drama. IMO i's really interesting when you really think about it. But you Really have to think about it, because there's not much happening on screen aside sex. It's more like "between the lines" (I'm not sure if such expression exists in english...but you get the idea). Though it may be a bit hard to notice at times. The same thing with High School Co-ed. Many people though it was boring, that there wasn't any plot in the film, but I found lots of interesting themes from it.

I wouldn't call Ai No Corrida sexploitation (too serious and not really over-the-top). But in this poll it would be okay to count it as sexploitation. But it could be drama as well. Depends on how you see it.

Agreed. Miki Sugimoto is still my favourite 70's babe, but Meiko is definitely more beautiful.

The police would be a calling I am sure

thats one thing with the net, you have to beleve everything people say really and legally it could be a bit dodgy for some sites.

18 is the perfect age really for the UK, old enuff for everything

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 21 Mar 2006, 21:04

Huh?

I was referring to my post the other day when Shen was talking about the kind of shower she likes... I jokingly asked for pictures.

When she posted about being hyperactive... I got worried that she was a bit younger than I thought. (I'm 26)

But she's 18 and legal so I'm relieved. That's all really.

Not sure what you're implying Romero?

Shen · Post by **Shen** » 21 Mar 2006, 21:18

i dont think romero was speaking directly about you mark

the net can be deceptive especially if you look/act older than you are, and you just have to take a persons word for it, which could land some sites in trouble (im guessing he was reffering to porn sites ?) becuase they have no way of kniwng if they are really 18...

but i am 18 ask LD he knows me since i was uhm like 13/14!

soo no need to worry hehe

(ahh i had 2 large cappuchinos and a couple bars of chocolate today haha so please excuse me if my bounciness decides to visit tonight, im just feeling that way out

)

Seriously? I thought you were in your 30's (no offence intended).

I'm only a few years younger.

How do you know LD - if you don't mind me asking?

If Shen is your real name (personality thread) you must be Chinese am I right?

Your vast knowledge of vintage HK titles. I remember asking folk when they got into Asian cinema, I think the earliest date was given by you. So I assumed that only some wise old geezer would have this much knowledge.

I also expected Tigercage to be in his late 30's... as he always talks about his "missus" (I thought he was married... well he is now I think). But it was just slang for his girlfriend. When I met him in person, he was like maybe a few years older than me

The internet adds like decades to your actual age. Unless I just have no clue.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 22 Mar 2006, 20:09

Cooey talks about his missus too - he's younger than I am.
