From wiki:

Sukiyaki Western: Django is an upcoming film by Takashi Miike. The film is currently in the post production stage. The movie will be filmed in Japan in the English language. The title references the cowboy film Django. Quentin Tarantino will act in the movie. Love the director but I don't like that last part.

I just finished watching Sukiyaki Western Django and I thought it was pretty damn good. You have to get used to all the actors speaking English, since I'm sure many of them don't speak it very well, but this doesn't hurt the film at all. Cinematography was very good and it had very good action. Story was good, since it seemed to be loosely based off Yojimbo. And Quentin Tarantino wasn't bad in it either. All the actors were great, despite many of them not being able to speak English clearly. So I must say a solid effort from Miike. I definitely recommend it. Much better than a lot of his recent films.

So it was actually filmed in English instead of Japenese? Why?

It's based on DJANGO

 

[War Party]

It's based on DJANGO

Yeah, I know. But have you seen Yojimbo? It seemed very similar to that.

I don't know exactly why it's in English, but he did have all his actors learn it for the movie.

 

[Space Moose]

Yeah, I know. But have you seen Yojimbo? It seemed very similar to that.

Isn't Yojimbo based on Django?

 

[War Party]

Isn't Yojimbo based on Django?

I don't think it is. I believe Yojimbo was released before Django. But yeah, I should of mentioned Django in my little review, because it takes more elements fromt hat film. But I was definitely seeing Yojimbo in there.

Just finished watching 'Sukiyaki Western: Django'. I see what you mean. I kinda' winced at the Tarantino part. Seemed a bit random as well as his crappy acting skills (which is saying something since the entire film is made up of actors speaking English in a Japenese movie).

 

[Doctor Baywatch]

Yojimbo is based on a story called "Red Harvest"

Let's make things complicated!
