Finally saw Ringu. It's slightly better than the remake though the scare factor goes away since I saw the American film 5 years ago:mad:

Whoops. What I meant to say is that I saw the remake 5 years ago. Basically the original is a better movie even though you're not scared anymore once you know the plot. Hey, I see you watched lady Vengeance lately. I saw Oldboy last night and I'm still in shock of how amazing it was...How's Mr. Vengeance?

Best from the trilogy.

Agreed.

Though Oldboy and Lady Vengeance are stunning pieces of art in their own right. If you enjoyed Oldboy, then you HAVE to watch the other two. Park is simply brilliant.

Oldboy is my boyfriend's favorite, though.

Really? Sounds like I'll be watching it tonight. I figured I'll start with the first and finish off with Lady Vengeance. Thanks for the feedback guys.:)

I prefer Oldboy as well, one of my favorite films. But I think now that Mr. Vengeance is every bit as good, I was just so taken with Oldboy (and I did see it first) that it was hard for it to top that one.

Now Lady Vengeance is by far the weaker film of the three in my opinion....but still very good.

So I saw Mr. Vengeance. It was excellent though I was expecting a faster pace, sort of like Oldboy. But I guess Oldboy was inspired by a Manga where as this one must be Park's original screenplay. I heard that "Joint Security Area" is also a great movie. Anyone else seen it?

It's on my Netflix queue. I should move it up. I need a Park fix.

I agree with you about Mr. Vengeance... I thought it was slow at first but I was absolutely intrigued and glued to the scene... And it escalates so horrifyingly beautifully...

You should complete the triad with Lady Vengeance when you get a chance. I think that it might actually be just as good as Mr. Vengeance.
