How sad is that, Tsumabuki Satoshi's character doesn't have a name. Not even a "Japanese Guy #1" or something. :grumble:

Initial D Movie, ah yes. :say_yes: I think the drift scenes in the movie were great. :)

I wouldn't be surprised if there are going to be overly intense scenes in the new installment of Fast and the Furious, like jumping off bridges sideways while drifting. :beaten:


Sung Kang<---not Japanese, but asian
Masa Kanome .... Tea-Hair Gang
Keiko Kitagawa .... Reiko
Branden Weslee Kong .... Skateboarder
Masami Kosaka .... Announcer
Leonardo Nam
Don Tai .... Basher
Brian Tee .... D.K.
Satoshi Tsumabuki
Jade Wu .... Tea-Hair Gang
Stuart W. Yee
Leila Zia .... Cheerleader

I saw the tentative names of the credited cast of the movie. Try to count how many japanese characters are included. :beaten:

That many Asian folks out of all that cast.


@Triky: Yea, I'll see if I can find the torrent.

Did they show any of the cars K.T.? Do the cars still have the same look as in the previous movies?

OOHHH YEA!!!! I only got a quick glimpse at it since I was reading the forum while the commerical was on, but the cars definately had more of an American look to it. I mean yea...its got that "rice rocket" look, but it still looks :bleh:

I highly doubt she'll be in it :sweat:

Chances of seeing Race Queens or Gravure Idols in this one is a lot greater is what my guess is.

I assume then, that the cars most probably look like "decal on wheels". And they're probably going to start drifting on 20" rims too. :shakehead:

and the Hollywood invasion of Japan continues...

The Ramen Girl

A young American woman finds her calling in Japan in the comedy The Ramen Girl. Brittany Murphy is stranded in Tokyo after breaking up with her boyfriend. With a lack of direction in her life, she decides to trains as a ramen noodle chef, only to find her Japanese master is a tyrant. Toshiyuki Nishida plays the chef. Robert Allan Ackerman directs with a script from Becca Topol.

sounds almost like a Tampopo remake... :sweat: :sweat:
