  Now's not the time for Ichiro to be so "Japanese" - remain loyal to the team, be risk averse and choose comfort over a new setting.

  He's already done what he can there, no one will blame him if he requests (not demand, of course) to be moved to team that can complete.

  Too bad if Seattle loses all the Japanese tourists but as a MLB fan, want to see meaningful games broadcast over here.

  Scrote: I meant ANA to LA while JAL to SF (so no overlap). . . my bad! If you check their sites most flights leave around midnight while arrivals are early morning.

  So I guess take the last train to Haneda & the first train from!

  How original. . . excluding Paris, the routes are basically identical to ANA (except ANA is to SF, JAL to LA).

  Yeah, the basic storyline may be cliche & I'm the first to admit I'm not big on references to social statements - taking resourecs by force, destroying the enviroment, etc. - but from a pure entertainment perspective, it definitely gives you your money's worth & doesn't feel like 2 hours 40 minutes.

  The 2D version is actually pretty good, but unless you plan to see both, be sure to see it in 3D, and rather than trying to find faults, open up your mind & enjoy the visuals!

  As much I'd love to see this in 3D, if you're a foreigner living in Japan you may be SOL! Rumor has it due to difficulty in 3D subtitles only dubbed versions will be in 3D. Think about the recent 3D animations - all in dubbed Japanese only.
