All Hail Humongoid Japanese Giant Robot Replica Moving Things!! They're Really BIG!!
Merrick here...
Our search engine here on AICN, while recently improved, is still somewhat dicey. As such, if I'm repeating a post I somehow missed, apologies in advance to both its author and our readers.
This said, a bizarre...but extremely cool...bit of entertainment-related news has recently been unfolding in Japan & I thought it deserved a most humble tip of the hat here...and perhaps even a gasp of awe.
Work has recently been completed on a big-ass, HIGHLY detailed Gundam replica - which lights up, moves, etc.
Here's what it looks like fully active:
Work is now underway on a similar Tetsujin (Gigantor) replica. Here's some concept art from that project:
And here's some video of the mighty machine being constructed:
The folks over at Gizmodo - easily one of my three my favorite websites - have done an extremely excellent job rounding up some rather beautiful images of Gundam, and of behind the scenes work on Tetsujin. I highly recommend your checking out the gallery of Gundam images they've amassed - 'tis a sight to behold. CLICK THE PICS ABOVE to see more of each character.
Back in 1998, when the Olympics were held in Nagano, Japan, I held an admittedly irrational, desperate desire to see a life-sized Godzilla rise from behind the stadium during the Opening Ceremonies & ignite the Olympic Torch with its fire breath. No one would listen to me - I was even taunted for the notion. Perhaps I was ahead of my time - or a head case. But these megabots bring me one step closer to seeing my dementia made real. At the very least, maybe others can now appreciate the beauty of such madness.
Maybe they'll build an Iron Giant? MechaGodzilla? Megas XLR?

I'm moving to Japan.
-
WHERE IS MY FUCKING MEGAS XLR MOVIE!?!
-
..killing 30.
-
That Godzilla Olympics idea is brilliant, I'm going to spend the rest of my life sad that that didn't actually happen.

by charlesthomasmathews1978
In one year you don't have enough money for shit like education and healthcare let alone giant replica's of cartoon robots otherwise they'd have a lifesized version of Optimus Prime in downtown LA.
-
they're either one or the other, surely.
-
If you know what I mean.

I mean, it's not like there are people lstarving in the world...
by ricarleite2
FUCK THEM! Let's build this USELESS GIANT ROBOT! That's why I LOVE the japanese.
-
I used to live there and probably never should have come back. But, nah, it was great, but the US is my home. Still, I wish I was in a position where I could easily live in both worlds. Maybe when I'm some kind of famous person with lots of monies!
-
means you're making them giant in real life, so its both! Though "life-sized" is a pretty awkward phrase more I think about it.
-
how fucking awesome are the Japanese.
-
...JEEG!!
-
lame
-
robot prime or maybe megatron...the old one when hes a gun and prime would have to be a cab over...not McBay's version...

Ummmm, they do have shit like this in the U.S
by kevin_costners_recycled_piss
Ever been to a theme park?
-
ridiculous waste of funds, resources, and manpower. That's what I see when I look at ridiculous shit like this. Sure, I probably would have been really impressed when I was 8 ... but, I'm not. It's a giant fucking statue that shoots steam and moves its head around ... big fucking deal. All the time, money, etc ... which went into that thing would really have been better utilized feeding hungry children in Ghana and Sudan, or something. The world's got problems, and these fucks are using their discretionary income to build giant action figures. Fucking hell.
-
If your mother in law read your post, not even a real Gundam or all 50 Ultramen combined can't save you from her wrath...
-
Beat me to the punch. Glad to know I'm not the only one with half a brain reading this site.
-
in the middle of either L.A. or Detroit....lets start an internet petition right now
-
Good news guys, people aren't only starving in 3rd world countries (where, BTW, the problems are a bit more entrenched than something g as simple as lack of money), the city you live in has starving people, under educated children, poorliving conditions, and a lot moreproblems, all of which are always looking for volunteers to help them out. So instead of wasting time on a movie message board to complain about how the Japanese should be feeding the world, get off your ass and do something for the actual place you live in (and don't bother responding about all the great beneficial shit you already do, i'm not going to believe you).
-
--to go inside that thing and fill up the fog machines and replace the lights, etc. How cool would that be?
-
A theme park needs to get the rights to make one now. And really, it bothers me that "Tomorrowland" in either Disney doesn't have a giant robot of its own.
-
I wish I had been born there.
-
It turns its head and lights up. It's a statue with smoke machines and spotlights, people. Not to mention a waste of time and money.
-
so what are you doing on here? wouldn't getting on here to bitch at everyone be counter-productive to your cause? Or Hypocritical?
-

I want a little 2 story loft appartment in its chest area.
by the reluctant austinite
I'll hang out and watch TV, and push the buttons to make it go whenever kids come around. Email me for my resume.
-
...to introduce their giant kick ass gundam...oh well. But, as a Gundam fan, and anime fan in general, I think this is pretty damn cool...
-
I really don't mean the money should be literally spent on food and given out to people, it will help a small amount of people for a brief amount of time. I am just pointing out the duality of mankind, how we chose to dedicate our lives torwards mundane, useless stuff - yes, movies too - while most people have no access to a dignified life.
-
Start the petition to get this done! Gundam or something else! Or at least a life-sized Millennium Falcon or something!
-
A giant gundam is neato fun until it's striding across the rubble of Los Angeles.
-
I won't be happy till they build a 1:1 scale Valkyrie.
-
He should be creaming his jeans by about now.
-
I envy you, Japan, sometimes.
-
Nope, I could give a shit what people choose to spend their time/money on, nor do I have a cause. Just never enjoy people pointing at something and then decrying it because of all the starving people somewhere else. It shows no concept of the actual ways in which we're all wasteful, and it's just a boring way to react to things.
-
Is what I want to know!
-
Basically, if I recall correctly, you take a ton of money and you build some "big fucking thing". And then people come to see the big fucking thing, and take their picture next to the big fucking thing, and stay in the adjacent big fucking thing hotel, and so on...

by terry1978
Seriously, as much shit as they create, about 80% of it is just kitschy fun stuff that has no plan to improve life overall.
-
Why are all these people shitting on them for spending money on this thing for entertainment purposes?. Last time I checked, movies only serve to entertain as well, I don't see those posters bitching about wasting millions of dollars on movies. So get off your soap box, and please don't pretend to care about people starving in other countries.
-
that is the biggest waste of money and perhaps THE lamest thing I've seen in a long time.
Why not just build Godzilla and wreck the place on the hour, every hour.
-
The giant "robot Kong" build for the flaming pile of shit that was the 1976 remake. As kid I recall the producers talking it up. "we are using a giant mechanical kong in our version! No tiny stop motion models!" Only the thing didn't work and it ended up in the film for like 5 seconds. Instead we got Rick Baker in a monkey suite tossing dolls around.
-
Seriously... they need to just move to where there's food. Duh.
-
We don't spend enough on healthcare? WTF we spend more money per student then any country on the earth. Education makes up a larger part of the budget then defense does. It one county in Los Angles, over 20k a YEAR is spend on each student. And they still a 75 percent drop out rate. Maybe you should look at who is running the show, bloated unions and parents who don't give a shit.
-
I for one welcome our new robot overlords.
-
...with your giant robot fetish, your manga and your frankly disturbing bondage schoolgirl porn.
-
I want my Shogun Warriors toys back
so bad it hurts... -
Now I'm all for feeding people and stuff, but holy shit! With that kind of attitude we might as well go around tearing down every fucking theme park and children's playground... Disneyland??? Wild Water Kingdom??? The Zoo??? FUCK THAT SHIT!!! FUCK YOU PEOPLE AND YOUR CHILDREN AND YOUR NEED TO ENTERTAIN THEM!!! THERE'S STARVING CHILDREN IN AFRICA WHO NEED FOOD AND AIDS MEDECINE AND HERE YOU FUCKERS ARE GIVING MONEY TO FILMAKERS WHO WASTE EVEN MORE MONEY ON ROBOT MOVIES AND 3D AND DOCUMENTARIES ON HOW WE SHOULD FEED STARVING CHILDREN!!! FUCK ALL THAT!!! STOP USING YOUR CARS AND CABLE TVS AND OBAMA ELECTION CAMPAIGN FUNDS AND RANDOM STATUES IN YOUR PUBLIC PARKS!!! IN FACT FUCK PARK BENCHES!!! YOU TIRED MOTHERFUCKER??? THEN SIT ON THE GRASS NEAR THE DUCK SHIT!!! AND STOP WASTING PRECIOUS FOOD ON FUCKING DUCKS AND SEND THOSE BREAD CRUMBS TO NEEDY ORPHANS!!! HARRY SHOULD CHARGE US FEES FOR USING THESE TALKBACKS ON HIS PRIVILAGED SITE AND SEND THE PROCEEDS TO UNICEF!!! WOULD YOU LIKE THAT???!!! MAYBE WE CAN SAVE UP ENOUGH MONEY TO BUILD SOME ACTUAL KILLING GIANT ROBOTS AND GO GUNDAM ON ALL THOSE AFRICAN MILITANT SOMALIAN ETHNIC CLENSING ASSHOLES AND RESTORE SOME ORDER CELESTIAL BEING STYLE!!! BUT NO, WE GOTTA USE GROUND TROOPS AND TANKS LIKE PUSSIES!!!

This is all so very odd. As are the Japanese, god bless em
by doctorzoidberg
-
Really, I do
-
even that mobile phone/camcorder footage was better than Bays framing of giant robots.
-
More Megas XLR please
-
as well as everybody in the US government who's ever agreed to work with him (wasting taxpayer dollars on shit like a 2 second shot of some tanks mobilizing or fighter jets streaking through the air in formation). That's a big part of the reason I hate the guy so much. He makes some of the most expensive movies on record, wasting millions of dollars each go round, all in the name of 'big dumb fun' ... and nobody seems to find this offensive.
-
...and it's HUGE.
-
Again I mean. Because you know that's where those robots are headed first.
-
While the Gundam looks cool, I'm sure Truckasaurus could take him down without too much trouble. Truckasaurus RULES!!!
-
If you were a actually a Gundam fan, you would know that the song being played is the theme song to the original Gundam.
-
..should be built..doesnt have to be giant-size.. regular human size would be just right..(look her up TB'ers..you'll heartily agree)
-
as in Ozawa..carry on
-
10+ story high robots parked across from The San Diego convention center few years back to promote Sky Captain.
-
Remake the live action Gigantor movie! I can't read subtitles!
-
That would bring a lot of tourists.
-
with fountains of white stuff!
-
A Maria Ozawa statue...perferably with moving parts and sound effects...excuse me, I must go away for 5 minutes...
-
...instead of crap like TRANSFORMERS 2. Best giant robot script I've read.
-
it's head moves
-
Im building one of these in my basement and when its fully operational....I will rule the world mwah ha ha haaaa!!!
-
KABOOM!!
-
..5 min? some things shouldnt be rushed..
-
Let me know when it learns to walk.
-
I saw Fordzilla when I was a kid just based on one of those infamous " SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!!! SHAKE HANDS WITH THE DEVIL AS YOU WALK THROUGH THE GATES OF HEEEEELLL,BIGFOOT FORDZILLA,MINI CARS, SUNDAY!! BE THERE .Kids under ten get in free" comercials. I miss those days of pure hype in comericals for toys and shit. Fordzilla was fucking awesome and I bet he could chew this robots ass in half.

by crackerfarmboy
There is no hope in resisting!!
-
would have them. And a weiner.
-
Plus, it just sucks.
-
It moved its head, smoked a whole bunch and lit up.
AND......?
-
...said it best earlier in this talkback. Stop whining and start volunteering; you know, the typical stuff we religious conservatives do.
-
ProfGriffin, you missed nothing good sir. In fact you summarised the content of the clip most concisely.
I believe we were all 'oversold' on this giant robot by the man named Merrick. A fraudster and a blaggard. In fact I would go so far as to call this 'robot' more of a statue. -
Or at least that insane midget and his f%$ked up regime.
Will be great day when you can get live feed from these things laser beaming the last Stalinist bull$#itters on the planet! Here's to this tech' getting way out of hand, hahahaha!!!! -
Yeah, how dare Bey make movies fur fun. God, you are a retard.
-
right?
-
...And His Giant Flying Robot. That's what this makes me think of. I'm waiting for somebody, even a hack like Bay, to do a treatment on that old Japanese kids show.
-
Just wait til North Korea piss them off!
-
When the shit hits the fan and humans need to defend themselves against a warring alien race, giant mutant animals, or an evil mad scientist, it will be the "weird" "fucked up" and "bizarre" Japanese who are the only ones prepared to combat the assault.
-
Jul 02, 2009 3:22:19 PM CDT
Merrick, do you bow before the altar of Gawker or something?
by alfeetoe
Cause all of your stories are rehashes of shit I see on Kotaku or Gizmodo hours or days before you post. Get your own fucking stories.
-
..would be full of these life-sized robots and monsters and they'd move like those stoopid fucking singing bears at Chuck E. Cheese's and all the rides would be action show based and all the midway games would have cool anime toys as prizes, foam swords and helmets and flashy crap and I'd secretly live in one of the rides and eat out of the dumpsters and never leave.
-
..GIANT WORTHLESS FUCKING RETARDED STUPID ROBOTS ALL IN LESS THAN 100 YEARS.
WOW. -
...THE OLD FARTS IN JAPAN ARE REALLY MISSING THEIR CHINESE AND KOREAN SEX SLAVE CUMBUCKETS RIGHT ABOUT NOW.
-
I briefly got excited at first glance thinking it was a screen shot from a new Voltron movie.
-
you know these robots are gonna come to life somehow and start fucking shit up. It's like they WANT this to happen!
-
USING ONE'S RESOURCES TO INVADE IRAQ AND DESTROY THAT NATION AND THOUSANDS OF LIVES, OR BUILDING THESE GIANT WORTHLESS FUCKING TWAT ROBOTS.
FFS -
Get in the spirit you worthless sack, jesus christ think about what you're bitching about. A real life giant robot is cool by any standard, what's that got to do with fucking Iraq? Go to some dickhead political board and fuck off.
-
SHIT!
-
The most pointless thing ever built? The pyramids.
The grand folly of a Pharoah - a tomb for a man who pretended to be a god.
But... rather than all of us laughing, pointing and saying what a fucking HUGE waste of time those things were, they've somehow won us over. Wonder of the world aint a title that gets handed out easy! -
seriously how much could you pick one of those up for, set up outside your front door
-
They built the Gundam in the non-smoking section.
-
...bomb Japan again. They have giant robots.
They're a threat again! ;) -
I guess I "ain't cool" enough to know what these are from.

How many fucking Double A batteries does that fucker need?
by lockesbrokenleg
-
I may not get this anime stuff, and I mays till not know who this Ozawa chick is, but after googling up a few pictures, I'm highly in favor of creating personal, real-life working models of this woman.
-
Especially in Japan. I like these.
-
It's cool and all but waht a waste all you get is head action. Sure thats a plus in a chick, but not in a bot. Make the arms move, let the knee joints and waist move. You are Japan.. Come on man your slipping. Still cool as fuck that it's there 1:1, but it needs more movement!
-
Greater range of facial expressions too
-
is a little like the mule with a spinning wheel. Noone knows how he got it and danged if he knows how to use it.
The names Lanley, Lyle Lanley and I come before you good people tonight with an idea. Probably the greatest... aaaahhh, it's not for you. It's more of a South Korea idea... -

Someone make it happen so I can lumber through the countryside stamping out every Starbucks I see.
-
Go to Disney Hollywood Studios in Orlando. They've got one there, it doesn't move or anything but you can have your photo taken with it and then go on a really dated star wars ride.
-
..Now witness the firepower of this FULLY ARMED AND OPERATIONAL GUNDAM ROBOT!
-
it's my blog. it will be good. it's just starting at least click please

Clearly, I am the new Michael Jackson!!!
-
They built a giant action figure with a head that turns a bit. How fantastic. They also make cartoons with young girls being raped by tentacles and have some NASTY porn. You know it. So let's not bang on about how "kewl" Japan is. And because I'm calling it like I see it, I say this as a card-carrying nerd with more credentials, I would venture, than most people here... Anime / Manga / whatever is A BIG LOAD OF SHITE.

Jul 02, 2009 6:36:12 PM CDT
All right, I'll tell you what I'll do...
by kevin_costners_recycled_piss
I'll show you my idea. I give you the Japanese Giant Robot Replica!
I've sold Giant Robot Replicas to Thailand, Hong Kong and North Korea and by gum it put them on the map!
Well sir, there's nothing on earth like a genuine, bonafide, electrified giant robot replica!
What'd I say?
GIANT ROBOT REPLICA!
What's it called?
GIANT ROBOT REPLICA!
That's right! Giant Robot Replica! -
about as interesting as a giant flame-shooting "dragon" at a monster truck rally.
-
better than transformers 2

That Jonas brother getting engaged is more news worthy
by outlawsdelejos
If this even constitutes as news.
-
This site used to be my favorite for news...but man have you guys fell behind as of late. SciFi (or whatever they are now) is doing a new ALIEN NATION show, penned by Tim Minear (Firefly, Angel)...That's not cool news? Or at least deserving of a good debate? COME ON!
-
I see it now. All apologies fellas...
-
This the reason most foreigners I know leave this country?
All of these quotes like "Japan is so cool" & "Japan is the greatest society on earth" etc. This shit isn't normal.
The reality of Japan is way different. They don't even have central heating here. Unless you're a millionaire, this place is like being stuck in the 1970's.
I kinda like it. But the vast majority of the people who can't stand it, are the Anime fans & people who think it's gonna be a futuristic geek paradise. It isn't. Normal life is dull. & grey. Very very grey.
-
"This the reason most foreigners I know leave this country?"
Wtf am I talking about? Just. Woke. Up. Must. Have. Caffeine. -
a) this is really old
b) I thought this article was going to be about the Evangelion release in the US, seeing as how its on Apple trailers. First ive heard of it. -
because there were starving children. I say build more giant robots, AND go back to the Moon. Greed and corruption causes starvation, not innovation. Your bleeding heart does not make up for ignorance. Corrupt Republicans and Democrats, Socialists, Communists, and their willing accomplices keep people down and starving. I applaud you, giant robot with limited articulation.
-
The last thing we need is giant robots all over the place, smashing shit up.
"Giant Robot, do my bidding & attack Iraq."
"No. I'm gonna rip your head off & fuck your sister." -
Everyone knows they need a small boy to tell them what to do so they smash the RIGHT shit up. Crush them NOW, Giant Robo!
-
Seriously, how is this any different from.... oh, I don't know.... the statue of liberty? I mean come on, how is this cool news? May be if the fucker actually walked and spoke instead of just standing there like a giant smoking cigar, then I'd understand why everyone in that crowd went "Ooooooooooooooooooo."
And what the fuck is up with that music? I felt like yelling, "Hey, hey let's go kenka suru.... PROTECT MY BALLS! Let's fighting looooooove!" -
I forgot the small boy aspect. I feel such a fool.
All these years I've been Robophobic when I really never took the time to understand them. -
That's what I'm here for. ;)
-
So does Beatnik Man from that series. If you know Sokko, you know Beatnik Man. Beatnik Man IS.
-
No other "life-sized" mecha was needed...
-
Santa, can I have one if I promise to be REAL REAL good this year?!
-

by hollywoodhellraiser
all those years with the mask but her knew the air was fucked and had perpared. When will you non-believers recognoze the Japanese are right>I'm gonna start getting my suitcase pack and move to Japan.
-
HOLY FUCK!!!
-
I am singing that fuckin gundam song!
-
Be sure to be back tomorrow for the AICN anime column. More mecha than you can figure an oppai missile at. Not really, but still plenty of good stuff
-
We Need a giant Mazinger Z.
-
Now what really would have been cool is if the Voltron lions showed up and tore it to pieces.
-
You fucking bitching morons need to shut the fuck up about some nation wasting money on this. The company that is behind the Gundam franchise built this to celebrate the 30th anniversary. If the country wasted govt. funds you could complain, sure...but this was build with private funds and they can do whatever the fuck they want with that money.
-
Americans accusing any other nation of wasting money, truly classic, some of the best portrayls of an American right wing stereotype on par with Colbert, keep it up.
-
Usually Japanese vehicles only do that once they get a day out of warranty.
Cute, but don't call me back until he goes on a rampage and kicks over a building or two. -
If you've seen Ghostbusters 2, then you know the Statue of Liberty would kick this silly Gundam's ass easily.

You guys don't realize how important this crap is to Japan
by cylon_conspiracy
Japan is a nation of geeks in a good way. They are obsessed with giant monsters (and robots) who will destroy the world because WW2 almost blew them off the face of the earth, so they became a peaceful nation that turned their understandable obsession with huge things blowing them up into being entertained by giant monsters and robots.
This is not a waste of money, it's a country expressing their unique culture in a unique way, to them it is culturally significant. .
We take their pop culture, water it down/dilute it, dub it and give it a different name, twenty years after they are already onto something bigger and better. Japan is cool. I would love to go there someday. -
I wish it were a nation of geeks, but it isn't.
Unless you live somewhere like Tokyo, (or you're a tourist who's looking for it, in which case you'll find it easily), you won't see any more of it than a westerner would see Marvel or DC comics on shelves.
Geeks are on the outside of the mainstream here as much as anywhere else. The only difference is that, as you said, they did get the shit nuked out of them, so often their stuff has that kind of theme.
Gundam is to the Japanese, what Spiderman etc is to us. It's one of the more mainstream brands that everybody knows.
It's the same as the U.K or the U.S, just where we have flying men with superpowers, they have robots. It's seems geeky to outsiders, because Japanese stuff IS geeky to outsiders. -
Would be to start a hobby as an Old Person counter. See how many Old People you can in one day. Award yourself 10 points for each.
If they gawp at you like you're from Mars, or they're bent over so far that their chins almost scrape the ground, you only get 5 points, because that type is the most common.
Seriously, as I said quite a few posts up, the guys who can't hack it here & go back home, are almost always the ones who expect geekland. -
they got issues man, if we let them keep doing this one day we will find our world ravaged by evil schoolgirl terminators.
-
Awesome, thats the way I want to die, none of this heart attack or cancer stuff.
-
Oh, and eff Micheal Bay.
-
the japanese should spend the money for the poor? americans are really the best example of that now, arent you? how much a michael bay movie cost? did you spend your last $10 to see transformers or donate it to charity? i'm not even touching big businesses - the oil and insurance and the corrupt congressmen they pocketed.
for every shitty anime/tentacle porn the japanese have, you americans more than make up for it with shitty sitcoms, boybands, and shittily designed robots.
the japanese produced kurosawa, ozu, miyazaki, osamu tezuka. that alone cancels out every shitty thing they have made lately. -
You don't have to put a screechy horn section in every fucking thing, man.
-
Who the fuck cares? It's not our money. If the production company what's to spend that much, it's their choice. If his movies didn't make money, they wouldn't. It not like they don't pay hefty taxes on the profits. I fucking hate this mindset that thinks its ok to take other people's money and redistribute it. I guess that means were are in for a long 4 years.
-
That´s what America need. The dick will have a regular size.
-
Time to give Lady Liberty a makeover. Maybe a giant Catwoman statue instead... Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman though, not crappy ass Halle Berry Catwoman.
-
Yup.
-
could think this isn't cool. That moving Gundam made me smile.
-
These films tend to get hyped way too much. Some dude reviewed the latest from the director of "Tokyo Gore Police", and he didn't have kind things to say:
http://tinyurl.com/lnhvx2 -
As far as Asian Cinema goes, it's pretty diverse, and there's a lot of good stuff out there, but films like these are catching on in America purely based on the hype of how wacky and crazy they are. I've seen some of them, and while it tends to be hit or miss, most of them range from insanely studid to just plain awful. People are reveling at them because of how crazy they are, like when Japanese game shows were first discovered over here, but they get old really quick, and when the novelty wears off you find yourself surrounded by mindless dorks laughing like hyenas at things that aren't really funny, and applauding at things that aren't all that great.

Feed the Poor Vs. Giant Robots!!!
by elvispresleehorsleyharveyoswaldoprahwinf
We just need to figure a way to build our Giant Robots in a way that provides food for poor people.
Right,I'm on this shit.
And I'm calling in Jeff Golblum on this one. We'll wrap this whole "Build Giant Robots/Feed The Poor" thing up in a Michael Bay Minute.
gnortsmra is correct. Listen to his truths! -
Happy well fed giant robots.
No more poor.
Everyone's a winner. -
...as a mechanical designer, I appreciate the workmanship behind the design, layout and fabrication of these spiffy statues. I’m a bit disappointed though to see only inner structural support with no articulated joint-workerys. Still, I’d kill to get those CAD models. Cool indeed...
-
I'd have given a dollar to see Godzilla light the torch, too.
-
The chicks are hot, everybody rides bikes, there is a real rail infrastructure, theyy get every great touring band, any consumer good in the world is availale for purchase, the beer is the best, the food is great (I'll pass on the herring-based cusine, though) and then there is the whole "organic drug toleration" thing. You can have your giant robots and mini-mouse dressed waitresses. I'll take old-world cool anyday.
And Target has all seasons of SNL for $16.99...limited time only -
I thought this video was old news.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mRvak_qBX8
-
They never got that thing to worth a damn either. I think it appeared in the film less than 5 secs total.
I think Jessica Lange's nipples got more screen time. -
...JAPS WHO BUILD PATHETICALLY STUPID ROBOTS THAT DO NOTHING BUT TAKE UP SPACE AND SERVE SOME SORT OF SUPERIORITY FETISH: 1.
...THE THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS OF CHINESE, KOREAN, THAI, AND FILIPINO WOMEN THAT THE JAPS ASSFUCKED DURING WWII: 0. -
FFS. THOSE SALARYMEN SURE DO GET BORED EASY. CHRISTALMIGHTY.

...so I can stand below and look up her skirt.
-
So *now* we see Japan's answer to North Korea's missile tests...
