If you knew more about this particular subject, you would know that animals do not customarily indulge in anal sex and likewise a large percentage of homosexual couples do not engage in penetrative sex, prefering masturbation. In this light, his - and your - outrageously homophobic remarks make no sense at all...

My British friend was due to interview him for a magazine while he was here here in Tokyo but was unable to make it. The interview went ahead with a Japanese guy, but it won't be the interview it would have been if he had done it...and it would have been his last interview.

Whilst I find your view of world history a little naive, you are correct in saying that we Brits made a mess of the situation but did so for the right reasons at the time. It was then left to the Americans to continue screwing up the middle east with their blind acceptance of whatever Israel wanted to do. It is also true to say that any criticism of Israel is automatically labelled ant Semitism and because of this serious debate over this and many other issues is almost impossible.

Tell you what, pal. You stick to brain numbing variety shows and extremely poorly acted 'drama'. Leave the real TV to the grown-ups, eh? Oh, and well done to NHK for at least attempting to be funny. It isn't your fault that the Japanese public doesn't have a sense of humour...

No, it has only made its production costs back, it still has to make distribution, negative cutting, promotional costs etc. back. Usually a movie has to make twice its production cost to make a profit...but it will probably do that in overseas and DVD / Blu-ray sales and rentals.

Yeah, its amazing, isn't it, how quickly people can turn on a movie based on bad press. Yes, it may be a turkey but, if you want an opinion, see the bloody thing first.

What this comes down to is do you want justice or revenge? You can't have both and what you have at the moment certainly insn't justice...so it must be revenge. Revenge is not civilized and therefore Japan is currently not civilized.
