ExplicitThe Apocalypse D0well Show: Episode 76 | Click here to download this episode. Season 4 episode 11 of 13. I tried something new and ended up with a short episode. Here's the full episode text, so if you don't want to listen to the episode, you can just read it. Begin Hello, hello, welcome to the show, I'm Apocalypse D0well, a guy from KY who lives in beautiful Takatsuki, Japan, and this is a show about my life here in Japan. I'm trying out a new format this week, so please bear with me as I work it out. I think if it turns out okay I'll mix up shows like this with outdoor recording shows and regular format shows. I'll keep you guessing. I got the idea to do this after listening to the most recent This American Life. If it bombs, please blame them. Movies I saw two movies this week. Both of them had characters who believed they were acting in a movie when the action around them was real. Both of these films, of course, fall short of the king of this genre, The Man Who Knew Too Little starring Bill Murray. I saw it once and hated it. When I came to Japan, my Australian flatmate made me watch it again, and I loved it. He also made me watch every episode of the Young Ones, but that's a story for another episode. The first movie was Tropic Thunder. This was the first time I've seen a movie on Blu-ray, and I have to say the picture quality, the sound, the whole experience was...pretty much the same as DVD. Maybe if I had a bigger TV I could see the difference, but really, I just don't care. DVDs are fine. I liked Downey, Jr. It was great to see Steve Coogan, Mr. Alan Partridge himself. Back of the net! Cheap, average gags filled most of the movie, and the rest was just incomprehensible. Why was Jack Black in this movie? His character farted. That was it. He did nothing interesting at all in the entire movie. Jack Black should be angry at Stiller for not giving him any more to do in this movie, or he should be mad at himself for taking the role. Maybe both. I also can't understand why Tom Cruise was in the movie. I had trouble understanding why his character danced, until I saw in the extras that Cruise had added the dance in the make up test. I guess Stiller felt uncomfortable telling Cruise the dance was stupid, so they added it to the script. Stupid. Too stupid even for this movie. The second, much better film was The Magic Hour. It was written and directed by Koki Mitani, the same guy who wrote and directed Uchoten Hotel, which is worth watching not only because it's funny and well-written, but also because Ryoko Shinohara plays a call girl. The Magic Hour is about a guy who gets involved with a local mob boss' girl. The mob boss is played by Toshiyuki Nishida, the head guy on Tante Knight Scoop. In order to live, the guy has to find a hit man and bring him to the boss. Instead of actually finding the hit man, he instead decides to hire an actor to play the hit man. He tells the actor he's making a movie and makes him think the mobsters are actors. Okay, it sounds stupid, but for a plot device like this it's well-done. The actor interacts with the mobsters in-character and hilarity ensues. I love it when hilarity ensues. This movie is so good, it even has Fumiyo Kohinata, the guy who played Kita Yoshio. He's playing the Paul Giamatti part in the upcoming Japanese version of Sideways. Skip Tropic Thunder, check out The Magic Hour, and if you've seen The Man Who Knew Too Little only once and hated it, watch it again. You might like it. Shiroi Haru The wife and I have been watching a drama called Shiroi Haru. It stars Hiroshi Abe, the guy from Trick, and the little girl who sang that annoying Ponyo song. Seriously, the song's cute the first ten times, but on the 100th listen, it made me want to punch the wall. The worst part is when kids on the street sing it. It's just too catchy. I won't hold that against this drama, though. Abe plays Haruo, a former Yakuza who has just gotten out of the pen, the slammer, the cooler, the joint, the stoney lonesome.
