Wizard Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Good old Beat. He does have a few golden gems. People should check out all the Zatoichi movies (execpt for movie 22, that one sucked). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gryph Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Is Japan no longer part of Asia? When did that happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agozer Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Is Japan no longer part of Asia? When did that happen?My guess is that since it's surrounded by water or some other vague crap like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
