You may have noticed that I STILL haven't started on Chevalier D'eon or carried on with the excellent Future Boy Conan - I've promised myself I will for absolutely months! @Kauldron26: Ninja Scroll is one of those perennial favourites I think. I just like the honesty about it: it's a great action movie that sets itself a modest goal to entertain, but does it so well! It's so far removed from what I'd call 'my thing', yet entertaining nonetheless. A guilty pleasure if ever there was one! @Frank: I know what you mean about certain titles staying in Backlog Hell or permanent ‘to buy’ lists.

It's been in my hand to purchase countless times, but I could never, for some reason, justify taking the final step to add it to my collection (in which, I'm afraid, it would probably not fit). With more and more titles being added to my "to watch" list, this keeps getting knocked further and further back. At this rate, I'm afraid I'll never see it. I'm not sure if all of the hype it got lead me to expect too much from it, in turn making me not watch it because I thought I would be disappointed. It's a pity, I know, but that's just how it is.
