Yojimbo is my top 5 of samurai films. I am literally him (I wish). I've seen it at least once every two years over the past 20.
The director, Akira Kurosawa, is a groundbreaker in modern film. One of his best is Seven Samurai, which the Magnificent Seven (both of them) are built on but lack character development. That one is in my top 20. Quinten Tarantino and all sorts of Ameristrags have built their films around his.
But look, my negro. It's a 1960s black-and-white Japanese film. You grab some sake, sit down, and enjoy the film. No r-slurs allowed.
Seventh Seal is a classic, with that knight playing chess with death. It's Swedish, and it's old, so lower your expectations. It's a slow and amusing film by another excellent director.
Except for Syndedoche, the rest are okay.
!kino, fight me.

Yojimbo was merely a swordbearer to a daimyo and not a real samurai

Also, Victor Wong, the guy who played Grandpa from 3 Ninjas who teaches his grandkids ninja martial arts is actually Chinese not Japanese

Just like the black version of Karate Kid is actually Kung Fu. Tsk tsk.

I can see that being important for some people. "Yeah I'm a fan of Kung Fu but I've never even heard of the Japanese version."

All martial arts fall into precise and discrete racial lines and time periods and have never influenced each other.

Wrong. Kung Fu influenced capoeira, and Shaoliang taught Bruce Lee's father how to beat people with his feet.

And after the turtle taught the panda how to do a judo kick, the panda taught the turtle how to kick the other way around.

But is Hulk Hogan, from 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain, still a real American?

No but Toshiro Mifune played Lord Toranaga in the original version of Shogun which makes it worth watching
Also you are still missing Hanzo the Razor

The yojimbo sequel is fun. Sanjuro I think is what it's called. It's pretty much the same plot, so don't expect anything groundbreaking.

I saw Seventh Seal and wasn't impressed but I'm pretty sure the subtitles were shit. Somebody would say four sentences and there would only be four words of subtitles. In boomer times they really underestimated how fast people can read.
