I am just happy that the sun came up at all. :bonk: :hehe: At first I thought Kenny Bania was one of Elaine's guys who was sponge worthy. :hehe:

Can I talk about Wasabi here? Or would that be considered Japanese because it stars Hirosue Ryoko... even tho it's in French?

Yup. :)

O good. I saw it a few days ago with my brother. Ryoko totally blew me away with her acting ability. I mean, I've seen her in Summer Snow and I've seen her in Moto Kare, but I wasn't completely taken by her. I mean, I thought she was good, but not necessarily outstanding. My view's totally changed after watching her in Wasabi! And I had no idea she spoke French.

Is it easy for Japanese people to speak French than it is English? I'm guessing the use of the tongue in pronounications is similar. I dunno... seemed that way.

I liked the movie, even tho everything happened really fast and the mother's mystery was solved way too quickly.

i found her character annoying in 'moto kare'. like you, i saw her in a different light in 'wasabi'. i like jean reno also.

They announced on the NYC news that this one movie has more than doubled the regular attendance at The Museum of Natural History in Manhattan. So it is making some folks very happy.

Yea, in Moto Kare I wanted the guy to end up with Uchiyama's character instead of Ryoko's, even tho I loved the two together in Summer Snow. But she was really convincing in Wasabi. I think this role suits her best.

That series has been really profitable for Chan, but hardly his best work...

I've been turned off of Comic-turn-film movies ever since the disgrace that is the X-Men series. The only movies worth their praise is The Hulk, Spider-Man, and Batman (Batman and Batman Returns, to the exact). The Trailor looks cool for Ghost Rider but I have the feeling I'll be disappointed in plot and origins. This is what happens when you're a die-hard comic fan. :doh: :sweat:

The Hulk?

A CG disaster. :shakehead:

Less is more.





Trailer.

I'm biased because I lust after Eric Bana. :D But I thought the construction of Hulk was fab.
