Agreed; Nishioka san looks delectable there.

This screenwriter is so tall he can't even help looking down on the promotions that made this film possible. Damn you're cool Drew.

How big is Drew?! He towers over the rest of 'em...

greenteaonsens -

IMDB has him down at 6'5...

kaminarioyaji -

thanks for the research. He certainly looks all of 6'5"

Sumiko Nishioka actually looks quite hot in this pic. The kind of woman you wouldn't be ashamed to introduce to the folks back home...

The Cloverfield thing is a good example of how many businesses are using YouTube to "create" viral videos:

The latest one appears to be the MRirian/Magibon thing (I sniffed something was up when she started introducing her friend "GYao"...) - turns out all of her staring and saying nothing was another movie marketing campaign. Not that this bothers me, if they are interesting. I'll check out Cloverfield on DVD.

Peace

Hey stop living in the past. What's done is done.

She does indeed look different. Like a different person altogether.
eastokyo at 01:28 PM JST - 3rd April

Hey she's on tv now. The picture above flatters her.
eastokyo at 01:32 PM JST - 3rd April

At least she yelled at the producer when he said he's not putting her in the film. Good to see she's still in form.

"what does this slusho taste like?"

It tastes like a slusho.
