Joel Rocks

He rocks with the might of a 787 billion suns, to crush and mangle at least a couple-three metaphors.

Dude [genuflect], I am in awe.

UPDATE: Yes, the DVD works. And I am so looking forward to watching it. First impression from just a few seconds of fast forwarding and such to make sure the disc is watchable: (1) A little too much Japanese without subtitles at the beginning (but this may work when I don't watch it in fast forward); (2) Despite the being just a might too pretty in his stage makeup for a character who (I gather) spent some time in the jungle, David Bowie does seem to carry off the role of a proper British officer in WWII; and (3) sorry, no opinion on Tom Conti yet, I just zipped past him to get to my first look at Bowie in this role. I REALLY hope to get some uninterrupted time for this movie soon.
