And here comes along RLSLOG’s and my first HD film post. There has been large demand, from this post back here. I decided to put this in DVDRip old, since we don’t yet have an HDRip section (now we do). The difficult part is that these releases barely even make it onto torrents, so having one that does is somewhat special. Many of us will not have the hdd space or cpu power to play this back. 720p and 1080i take huge amounts of cpu power, like better than late model P4s . In the NFO the group have a cute little guide on ‘how to’ play back the files. “To help make your life easier, we are going to walk you through it.” Well why not just download vlc, and everyone can watch just not people with windows. And if you’re really picky about getting your +6db on AC3, read this.

In the 1870s, Captain Nathan Algren, a cynical veteran of the American Civil war who will work for anyone, is hired by Americans who want lucrative contracts with the Emperor of Japan to train the peasant conscripts for the first standing imperial army in modern warfare using firearms. The imperial Omura cabinets first priority is to repress a rebellion of traditionalist Samurai -hereditary warriors- who remain devoted to the sacred dynasty but reject the Westernizing policy and even refuse firearms. Yet when his ill-prepared superior force sets out too soon, their panic allows the sword-wielding samurai to crush them. Badly wounded Algrens courageous stand makes the samurai leader Katsumoto spare his life; once nursed to health he learns to know and respect the old Japanese way, and participates as advisor in Katsumotos failed attempt to save the Bushido tradition, but Omura gets repressive laws enacted- he must now choose to honor his loyalty to one of the embittered sides when the conflict returns to the battlefield…
