Ringu/The Ring.

I've seen Ringu 2 and I liked it a lot more than I did the first Ringu movie.  I still haven't seen Ringu 0 or Ring Virus yet, though. v.v Has anyone seen Ring Virus?  It's the Korean re-make of Ringu and some people thought the Japanese version was better, but other people like the Korean version more or like it equally the same, and it seems to follow the book a little closer than the Japanese movie, so I'm tempted to watch it, but after the awful American version of The Ring, I'm not sure if I want to see any other foreign Ringu re-makes.

I'M A RINGWORM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've seen 'Ring', 'Ring 2', Ring 0', 'The Ring', 'The Ring Virus' and 'Rasen'.

I've seen 'Ringu', I loved it. I also thought the remake was a little... weird... Rachel and Noah didn't seem to be in love to me. They had no chestry whatsoever. Ryuji seemed to really still care for Reiko, and I think that was very upset about his death, but she realised that she has to think fast. Remember how Ryuji was the brain of the movie? Reiko was desperate. I mean, if you're husband died, but there was still a risk your kids gonna die, isn't better to save the kid and morn for your ex-hubby later?

But, anyway, Sadako is the freaky and scariest thing I have come across since... ages! She never showed her face and you were like 'Agh! What's she got to hide?' and then... Ewwwwww! I cried at the end when Ryuji died, the poor guy didn't deserve it! I seriously weeped for him, and the way Reiko look the lose was so beautiful and quite mornful. I just loved Yoichi, he's such a sweet kid! (bare in mind, before you question me that I have seen this movie over 103 times now, and still counting. I've taken such a great view on it that I'm so sad.... I wrote an essay on it!)

But don't get me wrong, I love Noah! He was a right laugh! That bit where he's running with the hose, and it isn't long enough so he goes shooting backwards... It was so funny I cried with laughter. Not to mention him screaming at the sun! "Damn you Mr Sun!" Okay well maybe he didn't say that, but he was thinking it. I think the Japanese one was more serious and realistic. I loved Ryuji so much, and he and Reiko were get together. Best movie bond I've ever, ever seen...

I guess it's fair to say that 'Ring' is my favourite movie. ^_^

I've only seen the english version which is weird for me because I love foriegn flims. but the ring and ring 2 hold the record for the only movies to scare me and leave me scared. that is why I love them! I was the girl, Samara in the english version, for Halloween and I looked good. I wish I had it on my computer because then I could show you guys.

Cardwitch:
I know what you mean. I'm always dressing up in white to scar my friends. I scared the hell out of a twelve year old by showing her the 'Sadako' look. I can really do it good, you know! I have a picture somewhere, once I've found it, I'll post it ^_^

Cardcaptor Takato:
Ringu 2 is going to be released on DVD in the U.S. this September!  Yay!  Even though I already have that movie on VCD, I'm glad it's coming out on DVD over here!  I was worried it wouldn't since the American sequel is an original storyline and all rather than a re-make of the Japanese sequel.  I wonder if they'll be releasing any of the other Japanese Ringu movies in the U.S. and if they'll produce anymore American Ring movies, too...
