The gif is from the end of Sanjuro, the "sequel" to Yojimbo, a very good Samurai movie.

Damn.. I would have thought Mifune's iaijustu would have been well known here. The clip is from Sanjuro

It's a safe bet to say that any of Kurosawa's samurai films kick major ass, and Toshiro Mifune is THE samurai movie archetype. People should look around for how many times Kurosawa's films have been remade (especially into westerns).

hmm yeah i remember reading somewhere that The Magnificent Seven was based on Seven Samurai..

and The Road to Perdition with tom hanks is based "loosely" (supposedly)on Lonewolf and Cub... anyone else here the same shit about that last comment?

Bear in mind that the adaptation ran both ways. Kurosawa said he based his films with Mifune on american Westerns. That the Italian film market went on to adapt his Samurai films back into Westerns again just complets the circle.

For folks who saw Shanghai Noon, there's a serious original with Toshiro Mifune and Charles Bronson, called "Red Sun."
