seriously, they look like 3 pomeranian(sp?) dogs. This is Tokyo, not Japan. I am so sick of Tokyo and all of its decrepidness being the posterchild to the world for Japanese culture. Try OSaka or Kobe for a change. Of course there is this fetish here too, but people are much more down to earth and in touch with reality. To all people reading this that do not live in Japan: This is Tokyo, not the whole country!!!!!

smartacus, because the anonymous internet is mightier than the sword. Even jr. high school boys can be big, big men in cyberspace.

Nobody cares what Ben Stiller has to say here, at least not the expendable masses that buy the tickets. They shove out a moronic tool talent to attract the interest of the sheep so they will flock to the movie and pay. Ben doesnt care. Its all in his contract and part of the job. Japan is big big money. That is all it is. One big, fat, promotional exploitation.

He seems like a decent fellow. I think his songs are lame and he can barely carry a tune but thats okay too. People are allowed to like and hate his guts. Quit trying to invalidate someone elses opinion just because its different from yours. If you like him, Say so! If you think he is a Tool, by all means say so! its an opinion board.

I aint defending it. But I did the SAME thing (minus the hit and run accident) when I was 14 with about 7 classmates from Catholic school in the mid 80s in S.C. USA! It reminds me. These are just kids. My parents werent paying any attention, and neither were theirs. The same recurring lesson. PARENTS, MANAGE YOUR ---D--MN-D KIDS!

Dudes were on a highway, no crosswalk, drunk in the drunkest hours of the morning? What was the speed limit on this highway? How in the world could a driver doing 80 km an hour avoid hitting this idiot? And then what? an immediate arrest for being in the right place(highway with car) at the wrong time(idiot drunk crossing said highway)? Perhaps if the laws werent so ridiculous regarding accidents involving pedestrians or bicycles, the driver would have stopped.

I expect nothing anymore Wiili. There is no culture left in Japan. The younger generations have no clue about their own country. Sometimes I think the Gaijins are more interested in Japan than its own citizens. This isnt even the same place it was as little as 5 years ago. And now this nonsense with these ridiculous "celebrities". There is no art in Japan, no creativity. Its all just regurgitated culture born off the internet and from magazines and videos. " We are living in an exhausted decade where there is nothing to look forward to and noone to look up to."

The bank doesnt save her soul or her dignity for exploiting herself as a pretty idiot for money. She only furthers the declination of Japanese soceity by setting the example to girls that a pretty face is all you need. And choosing it over an education. Some role model.

big deal. How about catching the knife wielding guy cutting up the 15 year old? Who cares if some 17 year old had her tightie wighties filmed by some dirty perv?

police will "request" pregnant women wear seatbelts? Well, that will make all the difference. Everyone listens to the police and obeys traffic and parking laws in Japan. If a woman is too stupid to know that wearing a seatbelt will save her and her childs life, what difference is a police request going to make?
