Oct 12, 2001 Music A Dozen Summers Against the World by Nature and Organisation (Review) It vaguely reminds me of some of the Revolutionary Army of the Infant Jesus’ material.

Oct 3, 2001 Movies The Hitman by Wei Tung (Review) I wouldn’t call this one a “must-see,” but if you have a chance to see it, and would like to see more of Jet Li, you certainly can’t go wrong.
Oct 3, 2001 Movies Armour of God by Jackie Chan and Eric Tsang (Review) Plenty of kung fu hijinks abound but Armour of God never makes up for all of the crap you have to sit through.
Oct 3, 2001 Anime Movies Galaxy Express 999 by Rintarô (Review) I’ve heard many people describe this as a serious, “adult” anime, but I don’t buy it.
