i <3 tampopo. it's such a wonderfully bizarre movie. a japanese western about food (and sex)...what's not to like?

The other day, I was watching an episode of Xena, and Joxer had a spell on him so that, whenever he heard a bell ring, he would be the greatest swordsman alive, or something. There was even a final duel with the villain, with lots of bell-ringing and slapstick--complete with Joxer drinking from a goblet while nonchalantly parrying the blows of his enemy.

I was like, you'll never out-fox the Fox!
