Lol I definitely came in here thinking I should control myself, but I can't even help it.

~but the style of literature is racially ambiguous~

[info]rogue 2nd-Jul-2010 04:38 pm (UTC)
this. i was scrolling down ontd's main page and ALMOST kept scrolling past this one (because i've never heard of it before) but had to stop and click because i'm just so glad to see asians in a fucking movie rn.

This isn't a Hollywood film, though, right? Pretty sure it's being made in Japan. . . .
[info]zephyrkist 2nd-Jul-2010 10:43 pm (UTC)
this was my first thought, too. Of course, it's even remotely Hollywood but who cares it's Murakami!!!
[info]driveintoalake 2nd-Jul-2010 10:38 am (UTC)
This looks beautiful.
[info]fairchilds 2nd-Jul-2010 10:40 am (UTC)
this looks beautiful.
[info]sliding_scale 2nd-Jul-2010 02:03 pm (UTC)
I looks so much like I imagined it would when I was reading it. Perfect.
[info]hologramxx 2nd-Jul-2010 10:42 am (UTC)
I love seeing anything Haruki Murakami related here :) Hope this is as good as the book.
[info]thehousesparrow 2nd-Jul-2010 04:10 pm (UTC)
Yes, Murakami is so great. I love his writing.

Doesn't seem to have an American release date yet. Does it take a while for movies to get translated into English and released? dub/sub whatever.
[info]writtenbyhand 2nd-Jul-2010 02:10 pm (UTC)
IMDB doesn't list an American distributor yet, but I heard something about Fortissimo handling international sales? Don't know what that means though, lol.

This is out in Japan December 2010, so I'm thinking mid-2011 for other distributors. But I expect torrents with English subs to be out sooner than that.

it looks stunning.
i'm so looking forward to the movie, i adore the cast♥
[info]aplaceinthestar 2nd-Jul-2010 10:47 am (UTC)
These stills are so beautiful they make my heart ache.
[info]throwingkisses 2nd-Jul-2010 10:53 am (UTC)

I would watch it even if the plot was shit because it really looks like a gorgeous movie.

I once had a girl or should I say she once had me.
[info]initialc 2nd-Jul-2010 10:51 am (UTC)
I feel like I've been waiting for this FOREVER.
[info]throwingkisses 2nd-Jul-2010 10:52 am (UTC)
idk what this is, but it looks utterly gorgeous.

[info]zephyrkist 2nd-Jul-2010 10:45 pm (UTC)
Read some Murakami. Your description of this is exactly what I would say about his writing. I love him :3
[info]abbichicken 2nd-Jul-2010 10:54 am (UTC)

This looks so perfectly, perfectly perfect. It's my least favourite Murakami book, but I think it will be the most wonderful film. Hope this gets a good worldwide release.
[info]zephyrkist 2nd-Jul-2010 10:47 pm (UTC)
I haven't actually read this one yet (it's lonely on my bookshelf....) but so far my least favorite was Kakfa on the Shore. I think it's because the translation was awful. Did you like this one less than Kafka?
[info]abbichicken 2nd-Jul-2010 11:11 pm (UTC)

So true, the translation of Kafka wasn't a patch on some of the others... I did like Norwegian Wood even less, but I think that's partly to do with the nature of the plot and so on...I do think it's a beautiful book, but of all Murakami's, it's the least 'my kind' of book...I'm not sorry I read it, but I wouldn't do it again any time soon XD
[info]kimchikimi 2nd-Jul-2010 10:54 am (UTC)
