Yeah, that scene in KtS was great.


Rain sets the mood quite well in a thousand Asian films.

Some scenes off the top of my head:











Tried to find a still of that battle scene in LOTR (Two Towers?) where its pissing it down on the army as they stand there, about to battle.
He held on. The dolphin and all the rest of its pod turned and swam out to sea, and still he held on. This is it, he thought. Then he remembered that they were air-breathers too. It was going to be all right.

Yes, the scenes at the temple are great. Beautifully shot.

There's a part in that scene which I love, it's when Mei looks around the corner and sees this small shrine with all these idols, she gets spooked and goes back to Satsuki. Just a fantastic little scene.
