Metropolis To Be Remade
I'm very conflicted about this. The fact that it is being produced by the guy who produced Alexander does not give me much hope.
Well, quite a lot of fuss. If I didn't know better, I'd think we were dangerous.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh.
My.
God.
Preview for Machine Girl. Warning - very gory.
Features "yakuza ninjas, flying guillotines, a drill bra, a Japanese teenage schoolgirl..."

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Um.... how effective is a flying guillotine, really? That's like throwing a cheese grater across a room, on a slightly larger scale.
Now, the guillotine blade without the apparatus, okay, but generally speaking we call that a knife.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
that looks more like a serrated yarmulke than a guillotine.

It'll cut your head off, Jim.

Hey, you can see it in action with some great hyperbole: [link]
In fact, the whole movie is on YouTube. If you have the patience, it's definitely worth it. It's a classic kung fu flick, full of cheesy fun and the occasional shocking cruelty. Plus the Neu! track that accompanies the Master of the Flying Guillotine when he's on the move is ultra-creepy, not to mention ultra-improbable, given that maybe 7 people outside of Germany knew who Neu! was at the time.
