Fantasia Schedule
Posted by Skrud at Thursday, June 23rd 2005 at 9:17am
Last night Harley and I planned out a tentative schedule to this year’s Fantasia Film Festival. You can see the pretty iCal PDF version. I think we still have some trimming to do … 25 movies is a lot. Mind you, I’m willing. Last year the movies were just so … awesome. (I’ll set up php iCalendar later today (after work) so that you can get a nice interactive updating interface. Until then, you can view the .Mac published version (which will likely disappear in 20 days when my trial .Mac account ends).
If you want more details about any of those movies, just look them up at the Fantasia Website. They have accompanying trailers for many of them.
The movies I’m most looking forward to this year are Izo, Godzilla: Final Wars, Three… Extremes and Survive Style 5+. I love crazy Japanese movies. Unfortunately, Azumi 2 isn’t going to be at Fantasia. Which is a damn shame, because I loved the first movie.
I looked at your list and some good choices. I suggest you look into the Korean films. The biopic “Fighter in the Wind” looks really cool. “White Dragon” from Hong Kong looks like it’s going to be hilarious.
The Shaw Bros. movies on your list look really good, too. Of course, the Godzilla films are going to be kick ass.
I’m still having trouble trying to narrow down my list of films due to scheduling constraints. Let me know how your list turns out.
Fighter in the Wind was on there, so was White Dragon. They might have been cut from the schedule when Harley and I were trying to narrow it down.
