Sam, you provide a service to this forum by not only running these contests but also sitting through movies like this to tell the rest of us not to.

I saw this movie yesterday (on a friend's SD-DVD) and loved it. It really cracked me up, and I even enjoyed the deleted scenes and alternate ending (for me, they were funny scenes that just didn't fit the flow as opposed to material that was cut for being lousy).

Terry Crews cameos are consistently awesome. The bit where he sidled up to the table almost knocked me off the sofa.

This movie is Balls of GENIUS!

BTW, Sam, "Gaijin" is the Japanese word for foreigner. In this flick they were saying "gwailo," which is the Chinese word for "round-eye." (Ironically, it was spelled incorrectly as "gweilo" in the subtitles.)

Awesome Aaron, will update with that info. Terry Crews outburst was one of the highlights as was the reaction shot. The rest of the film didnt work for me, but I know that there are plenty of folks who will find it insanely amusing. It might also be one of those films you have to (accidentally!) see a few times before it really sinks in =)
