Big Man Japan

Big Man Japan"A middle-aged slacker living in a rundown, graffiti-ridden slum, Daisato’s job involves being shocked by bolts of electricity that transform him into a stocky, stick-wielding giant several stories high who is entrusted with defending Japan from a host of bizarre monsters. But while his predecessors were national heroes, he is a pariah among the citizens he protects, who bitterly complain about the noise and destruction of property he causes."

Thus begins the synopsis for "Big Man Japan" in Apple.com's movie trailer section.  I must say, I really don't know what to think about this movie.  Something tells me I'm not going to like it, but being who I am, it is inevitable that I will go see it.  Probably twice.

Am I the only one who thinks that Daisato looks a little like Beat Takeshi?  Nobody?  Yeah, it's probably just me.

About Michael: Michael may be the most Japanese bald white guy you've ever met. He knows his way around Shinjuku with his eyes closed. He even knows how to use chopsticks. Michael speaks several languages, teaches martial arts, used to work on a ginormous network, plays guitar, writes naughty songs, and occasionally [read: rarely] updates his online translation playground Nihongo-a-go-go. Michael is a true Renaissance Man. He also happens to be unemployed at the moment. So if you need someone extremely cool, creative, smart, and who looks hot in a kilt for non-traditional creative-type work, feel free to contact him! You can also follow Michael on Twitter.
