Hell, is this devilish, or what?
"Devilman" and "Hellboy" are both playing in first-run theaters here in Japan.

didn't you know? The world is going to HELL and it's starting in the states! The FCC is suing everyone for indecency and both the presidential candidates are worthless. Now you have two movies about hellspawn in the theaters in Japan. These are the end times. I am gonna see Devilman though. I already bought the Hellboy DVD from home.

When deciding which movie to see, I suspect that 'Joe Watanabe' will be asking himself.....

One of the promo poster for devilman has a girl with incredibly long pubic hair, so it's gonna be devilman.
You can see it here.

From what I hear, the Devilman movie is very unfaithful to Go Nagai's original manga. No ultraviolence, Devilman has been turned into a bad-ass with a sick sense of humor to a whiney bitch, and the movie just all around sucks.
Hellboy on the other hand, is awsome.

I disagree, Both Howard Stern and Janet Jackson had it coming - Janet Jackson more then Stern. In Jackson's case she used a venue that she knew would contain large numbers of children, there was no warning. It would be like someone walking into a restaurant and flashing her boobs at your children.

Stern just keeps pushing and pushing till he made action inevitable. I mean, come-on a live orgasm on the public airways is just stupid. In both these cases there are venues for that sort of thing, protected venues. The FCC will defend your right to adult programming, but they will also defend the rights of those who don't want to see it. And before you tell me how they show erect dicks on German Television, who gives a rat's ass. Germany is Germany and America is America.

P.S. You are right about Bush and Kerry :-)
