I’m afraid to post a YouTube link with the sound here, it might scare you guys. So I won’t do that. smile

^ Huh? Noise? What? I’m curious to know what you guys are talking about but I’m too scared to watch the movie. =\

I agree. I would cry. Seriously!


^ Huh? Noise? What? I’m curious to know what you guys are talking about but I’m too scared to watch the movie. =\


^ yeah i can do it too


^ I can make that noise, it’s rather annoying. ^_^


the grudge


^ The Grudge or the kid who makes a bird noise? LOL


^ no ive only seen the parodies of it, but one time i was in the photography darkroom and someone was making that noise and some of my friends freaked out, i just laughed cuz it was hilarious


^ You saw it? I didn’t know that. Ha ha XD


^ haha all my friends were freaked out by it, i laughed.


I couldn’t help but laugh a lot during The Grudge. (USA) Nothing was scary at all.


Koyuki is soooo beautiful, I became a fan after watching Kimi wa Pet. She’s really cool and she’s dating Matsuyama how lucky is she (or how lucky is he xD)


Ugh. I haven’t seen The Ring, The Grudge, or One Missed Call. I can’t watch scary movies. =\


the ring was so funny


Whoa, I didn’t realize that Koyuki was the girl in The Last Samurai. And I’ve seen that movie so many times too. I liked her in Kimi wa Petto with Matsumoto Jun. That show was funny. I still have to see Blood: The Last Vampire.


I love Koyuki!! She is so amazing!


He is so amazing!!! I’m kind of depressed that he is dating Koyuki, but I love her so it’s all good. raspberry


He could say he’s like the Johnny Depp of Japan.

thats exactly what i was thinking! I loved Detroit Metal City, he pulled off those weird chars so well, same for playing L.

but UNF. i want me a slice of that yo. XD

^ Make sure to watch Departures. good movie right there. I think like everyone who enjoys japanese shows has seen HYD and HK~

Yeah, I know. I heard so much about it. It’s definitely on my top list to watch. Though I do still have to finish Boys Over Flowers. =\

I’m also gonna add Ping Pong and Waterboys to my list to watch. Looks interesting.


The Big O! I remember watching that on cartoon network. great show :D
I would enjoy a movie version~

^ Yeah, it would be weird if Miyazaki’s movies weren’t mentioned. His movies are classics.

^Everything you said about I agree with. I watched the trailer before I watched the movie, and it didn’t really bother me, but I can see how it would bother other people.
So I found an Oguri Shun fangirl? :D

I guess I’m and Oguri Shun fanboy? no homo. I watched him in Hana Yori Dango and Hana Kimi. seems like cool guy, and a good actor...plus, he is like the only japanese actor I can name off the top of my head, haha.

Definitely watch Ping Pong. Its hilarious. Departures was a great movie, and I think it one an Oscar for like best foreign film. Suicide Club was really intense. When I first watched it, I had no idea what to expect as I hadnt seen a trailer for it.

Haha. Yep, I’m an Oguri Shin fan girl. I loved Hana Yori Dango and Hana Kimi too! Those were the shows I watched that got me into J-dramas.

I still haven’t seen Departures yet. I wanna watch it soon, hopefully when I’m on break from school.

Yay!!!!

Is it bad that I haven’t? >.< I couldn’t really get into Hana Yori Dango, which I think it has part in that I didn’t want her to choose who she did. For Hana Kimi, I really need to get on that. :3 It looks hilarious, but I just haven’t done it yet. :(

Haha, Sorry! I just assumed. raspberry My bad!! Seriously, I feel really bad.
He is a really good actor. He’s directing his first movie too if I’m not mistaken. :O I might be though.
I crack up at the Ping Pong trailer. XD Departures looks really good. I was excited when it won even though I hadn’t seen it.
Same thing with me for the Suicide Club. My friend and I watched it together, and that night I sent her a text saying “Good night! From the Suicide Club.”


I swear I read somewhere that they were making Gintama. . . I may possibly be completely wrong, and be thinking something else or I read it wrong. :O
