    As the title says, lets see how many Japanese themed movies (prefer movies not made specifically for Japan). Post only 1 movie per turn, no consecutive posts! Please post a pic if you can as well.:)

    I'll start.
    Mr. Baseball - Tom Selleck

    Black Rain - Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia

    Great movie, New York Detectives escort a Yakuza gang leader back to Osaka, Japan for conviction on murder and counterfeit charges. Must see.

    i am not sure if this one qualifies...The Ring, i know it has nothing to do with Japan, but it is originally a Japanese film, like The Grudge (i.e. Ju-On).

    ok, we will let that one slide, but you can do better than that:poke: . Where's the pic?:slap:

    Brother - Omar Epps, Defunct Yakuza boss has to flee Japan and goes to Los Angeles to meet his half brother (not Omar Epps). Good movie.

    Nobody Knows

    Nobody Knows - A really great movie, nominated and won many awards at the Cannes Film festival. Based on a true story about a Mother who abandons her 4 children (all different fathers) in a small Tokyo Apartment. A must see.
