For almost 5 years now I have wondered what Kurt Wimmer meant when he stated "Ogami Itto" at the beginning of the DVD commentary. Well today while working on the Movie Body Counts site I found it. Those of you who are versed in Asian Cinema will find it silly that I missed it since it really is obvious... Ogami Itto is the main character of the Lone Wolf series and in an interesting twist has just bumped Preston off the top character slot for on screen kills (we are still working on UltraViolet & Shoot 'Em Up) ... www.moviebodycounts.com/Top-Characters.htmIts fun after sooooo many years to still be discovering things and connections with this film.  |

Well, it certainly won't lie. I guess it will have to sit. |

As long as it doesn't slouch.
Intertesing bit of trivia there Jen! And cool to see that the Body Count site is still going great guns - I like the Chart Topper section on the page...certainly makes it quick & easy to see who the killing machine of the silver screen are.

A I like the Chart Topper section on the page...certainly makes it quick & easy to see who the killing machine of the silver screen are. People are usually surprised. It's rarely who they think it is. For years it was an urban legend that it was RoboCop but when you do the numbers of actual, visual kills it just does not fall that way. |
