The rest of the troll's comments withheld. I'm much MUCH more an authority on Japanese culture than you. That's all I have to say.

Groink-speak: Beep-beep-beep-buzz buzz. Incorrect. Groink thinks he is an authority.

Oh groink, groink, groink... Everyone must look at the context of the situation.... And believe me, many TV show producers would like to draw some blood from this organization. I'm just wondering, who? Second, it is the popularity of SMAP. Kusanagi-san may not bring in good ratings for his drama app...

I totally agree with every single post that Groink has written in this topic. Instead of people bashing on Hollywood (which really offends me but doesn't matter anyways because it's not about me :)) people need to STAY on topic. It doesn't ask if you think a j-drama will do well or if there should ...

And Vhh, honestly it wasn't necessary to answer "why/will a jdrama won't work as a US remake" if the original question was "what jdrama would work us a US remake." And if someone is getting on each other nerves, then just report it. Because it's just ruining it for the rest of u...

Calculating user profile.... - Student, and not working for a living. - Japanophile, and general dislike for most things American when it conflicts with his japanophile views. - Never participated or always failed at debates because he can't focus on the subject at-hand. - Forms and conveys opinion...

So what are you going to do? Bad mouth the Republicans on every topic we have at D-Addicts? Or talk about the weather? Or give us tips on building a outside patio? That's what I'm talking about. It has nothing to do with people expressing their opinion. It has everything to do with doing so IN CONT...

In short... I'm seeing some really negative stuff about American cinema and television in general. For those of you who are thinking along those lines, just get over it because it makes you sound like a Japanophile. And Japanophiles have absolutely no credibility in this community whatsoever. This ...

What J-Drama would you like to see Hollywood try to remake? None at all. Hollywood can and will break any original concept, then disfigure it with cheap plots and clichés after the first season. I only watch one American drama now, only because I've been watching since the beginning and it's now in...

Kimura Takuya has been playing basically the same character throughout his career, but he generally picks scripts that are good for that character and delivers a performance that satisfies his fans. He doesn't necessarily pick challenging scripts, but he's smart about trying to keep himself bankabl...

Cant really say I don't like the following actors, but I'll list them anyway. Abe Sadao -- He's annoying in every role I've seen him in. Yamashita Tomohisa -- Plays more or less the same guy all the time. Fujiki Naohito -- Always plays the handsome guy. I guess that annoys me. Jinnai Takanori -- :al...

Guy here. Been watching j and k dramas for a few years. Watch mostly jdorama though. Also watch a few movies too. American tv doesn't cut it for me anymore.

I saw it. A sort of decent Americanized remake. The Korean version was simply better because Jeon Ji Hyun really came off as this crazy alcoholic girl harassing this nice guy. Elisha Cuthbert comes off more quirky and haggard; her character is still a drunk in the beginning. The character, Charlie B...

Attack #1 is a new bad drama for me. The strict coach with the fake beard was just silly. It seemed overdramatic at some points and tried to be as good as Ace wo nerae. Only thing I liked about Attack #1 was Ayana Sakai and the opening of the series :lol Also, Ace wo nerae got wrapped up too early. ...

Maria - I like Maki Goto but wtf was that about.
Pride - Didnt care about the story.
Hero - Overall a waste.
Tokyo Wankei - I like Nakama Yukie but this was bad.
Forbidden Love (Majo no jouken) - Badly written, but not badly acted.

I havent watched any KDramas for awhile but I'd also have to say Love Story in Harvard was one of the worst. I watched it up until the episode when they went back to Korea, then couldnt take it anymore. Winter Sonata was like nails slowly scratching across a chalkboard or something. I watched it up ...

I doubt there will be a season four since by looking at the ending, it would seem that both Ueda and Naoko got together with that french way of saying I Love You. Sidenote: someone voted that David Blaine is real? are you kidding me? I think there could be a 4th season if they wanted to make it. Na...

Im not really fan, but I did own FF7 when I had a PSX. So I know the story and all that. The movie had great action and CGI. But the story was pretty small and easy to follow, and wasnt written well. I think if anyone likes crazy Matrix-like directing and action, theyll love this. I was a little dis...

I just finished episode 5 now. I think that the real retarded part about this drama is the fact none of the retarded kids tell their teacher, played by Noriko, about the abuse that's taking place. I think thats unreal.

Im on episode 3. Ryoko is cute. Noriko is cuter. Dont know if this series is good or bad yet, I may get back to you.

I've been watching this and everything was good until episode 8, when Lee Min-hyung told Yuijin he loved her . Weak storytelling in my book. Now I'm not enjoying the rest of the episodes. I like Chelin and the actress who plays her is beautiful. :wub: I'm skipping scenes just to see hers in the rest...

Life altering. Only thing was I think the writers were implying Kimura's character loved Takako's character out of pity because she was in a wheelchair. It's been awhile since I've seen this drama, but Takako's character seemed to confirm that "Thanks for loving me because Im in a wheelchair&q...

Pretty good so far. Waiting to see Goto Maki, and Toda Naho.

Rushing off back to Korea ended the series for me. Bad writing. Stay away.

Im on episode 5 of this series. Think its...not bad. The english is bad, all except for the two girls who speak it pretty well. The lead actor (forget his name) resembles Kimura Takuya, even down to Takuya's mannerisms. The english actors are pretty bad, especially that white girl (sorry, Im bad wit...

Definately Koyuki.

Ive seen Kuroki Hitomi in older dramas and she was so cute/hot back then. She still is in being a mature woman now.

But on the poll, I have to pick Rina.

Very good drama, but I felt let down by the ending -- how Andrea became a priest and so on.

Funny beginning, draggy middle, cheesy ending. The very first impression is that those 16 episodes could be easily compressed to 10 with no loss for a viewer. The series would be even better then. It is apparent koreans can not came up with sufficient number of ideas to fill that vast running time ...

Ok, where's the Goto Maki (gotta love that name) photo? By request... :D Oh and no, there are no troublesome pics in these rar's. I checked them so they should all be PG-9 rated :glare: for those who where bothered. It's gotta be her nose, dang I love that nose in profile for some reason :) Goto Ma...
