    Just shoutout to Call Sheet. I hope this show continues to grow and become big like your other channels. I love these discussions! Great job Lock guiding things!

    Wow, really glowing praise so far. Sometimes I don’t watch the movie before watching you guys, but Matty made me really want to and I’m going to after this

    This is I think the first movie on the channel that I haven’t seen yet. Definitely going to check it out now! I really liked the Magnificent Seven which I believe was heavily inspired by this one.

    When Matt was talking about the intermission it reminded me of 2001 a space odyssey. I wonder if that was common at the time or if Kubrick took inspiration from Kurosawa

    Now Matty needs to watch Ikiru which is also another good Kurosawa film.

    I'm surprised you guys didn't mention Mass Effect 2 & 3. The assembling of the crew and then the execution of the mission gave me Seven Samurai vibes. Definitely not beat for beat, but it just gave me the same vibes. Ok, maybe somewhat.
    Great video as always, gentlemen. You guys are awesome.
    EDIT: Also, MrMatty, you should try and check out The Magnificent 7 (not the remake/remake). Not as good, but it's great for what it is. I thought it showed Seven Samurai a lot of respect.

    When i discovered Kurosawa, after his samurai films i was so very much surprised to see his "Fincher" side with High and Low. It's still, after 20 years - one of my fav's.

    Awesome pick this week. I don't think this movie is as much a snobby movie anymore. For a decade or so the Criterion crowd really championed this but so much has come out now I think it gets lost in the weeds. Can't wait to hear his thoughts on Kill Bill. I don't even know how you don't do the second one right away. Also Matty you should look into the physical media world for movies. It's honestly better then what they do for games these days. Look into the Umbrella Entertainment release of the old Super Mario Bros movie to get a idea of what these boutique labels do.

    Matty and Lock, I see this video has less views than most of your other videos. Please give the classics another shot. I think the foreign nature of this film makes it less accessible to many viewers. Great video!

      ​​@@ronaldhershner5841Kurosawa gets writing credit on the 1960 The Magnificent Seven because it was essentially a westernized American adaptation of this movie. They often have to credit the original screenwriter of the original source material, which is The Seven Samurai in this case.
      Edit: Apparently he's also credited for the 2016 Magnificent Seven remake because of this as well, 18 years after his death.
