...medieval Japan, Mononoke imagines a war involving several bands of humans--and a more desperate battle between man and the environment. Ashitaka (given voice in Neil Gaiman's American adaptation by Billy Crudup), the youngest survivor of a vanishing tribe, is gored by a demon boar that is a protector of the great forest. His wound will kill him if he can't solve the mystery of his curse. He meets Eboshi (Minnie Driver), ruler of Iron Town, and her fiercest foe, San (Claire Danes), or Mononoke, which means spirit. They want to use him or escape...

...sure, the mortality of Faustus (David Egan '00) was highly punctuated not only by the obvious non-human entities played by most of the cast (devils, demon and angels), but also by their all-too-human indulgence in the pleasures of civilized life--grapes in the winter, lapdances and such. But this is not to say that Egan's role was carried on the shoulders of another. Throughout the play, Egan remains the most believable. In spite of the attempt to detract from the religious overtones, it would be difficult to not symphatize with Dr. Faustus in his final attempt...

...popped in the first flick, a movie entitled Bastard!! Demon-God of Destruction. (Oh, what a name.) The movie started just the way I expected-a thunderous voice informed me that I was entering a "barren, bestial environment" where humans had been conquered by superior beings and sentenced to a hellish eternity.
