Why did Lost in Translation become a cult classic?

Japan and scar Jo, its a shit film

We pissed off an octopus stand guy by using his personal trash can. He chased after us, tried to throw the trash back at us, and yelled "FACK YOU." Was hilarious.

Because people kept hearing about how popular Bill Murray is and being the huge faggots that they are who refused to watch Ghostbusters or Groundhog Day, they had to find a movie that he stars in that they love and relate to despite being pretentious depressed gay hipsters. Hence the birth of cult status of one of the most pretentious films I have ever seen a comedian star in.

>Even being a week that knows some Japanese, you always got treated as a foreigner.
You sound exactly like the type of person the Japanese hate.

You need to get of the internet for the fun to start.

I'm a stealth weeb. I wasn't wearing cat girls, an anime shirt, or screaming NANI

The wizards spent a lot of shekels promoting the shit out of it.

Because it's good.

Is Bill Murray really a big star? I only know him as the weird guy from Get Smart

Fucking zoomer

Nyeheheh

Pretentiousness

Yeah, When I went to Japan I

1) Dressed as a american businessman
2) only japanese I knew was to say I didn't speak it.

And they were all very nice to me.

>I could go on

Please do

sounds better than america

>what is AC heating setting
>I am a weeb why don't you treat me like a Japanese
>there is signs of forbidding calling on train everywhere but it's just cultural difference so just let me do it
>but I speak NIHONGO so treat me not like baka gaijin onegai

it's the "you always get treated as a foreigner" in a negative tone that let us know you're the type japanese hate.

Yep

>accidentally stand in line for the women only train
>nobody says anything, but they're staring at me
>eventually I realize and leave while a few people chuckle
I had a great time there, it was easy to make mistakes like that though. Also forgot to take my shoes off inside once and a few other faux pas.

Yep, I am the user here and while I was treated as a foreigner, they never treated me badly since I didn't try to fit in.

it's comfy.

>Fuck this movie, made me want to go to Japan and it was the worst fucking holiday i ever had
This so much.
I was in Sendai and a cute girl in a uniform approached me in the street and kept saying sex and took my hand so i followed her into a building and she made me have a shower and then this wierd little fat japanese guy came out and fucked her in front of me and i kept trying to stop them or leave but the door was locked and she was making those wierd squeeling noises and the goblin guy had a knife on his belt (that's all he was wearing) and afterwards he made me pay 25,000 yen (around $250)

I met the odd american/british or canadian like this when i lived in japan. I loved japan and everyone was nice to me. these people though were convinced japan was racist after being there a month or less, because "people treat you as a foreigner". They'd then go on and talk about how backward japan was for a bunch of other reasons, not considering that maybe japan has it right and we have it wrong on immigration and the like, as japan is much safer.

these white people are cancer in white countries, they're absolutely not welcome in non-white countries.

It was real fun walking into one of those vending machine stores and trying to guess what the hell you bought for food.

first world problems

the fact that you wen to Japan and expected to be treated as a local and then got offended that you weren't shows me literally 1:1 why the Japs hate you.

You go to Japan to: Have a good time, get drunk, dance with some cute jap girls, and not get into anybody's business. Also, for the love of all GOD please don't expect to be 'adored'. Japs want to have fun with you but not think of you as an equal - they just want to party a bit with people who are slightly different, but don't rock the boat.

>Plus some asshole started yelling at me because I took a phone call on the train
You are the retarded, stereotypical American asshole. Always loud as fuck and never aware of themselves.

weak...

This must be why I had a good time. I'm not a faggot obsessed with their culture or longing to be a part of it, I'm just a visitor in their country and knew it.
Everyone treated me great.

Pretty much this

I wonder what ever happened to this guy

>Japs want to have fun with you but not think of you as an equal - they just want to party a bit with people who are slightly different, but don't rock the boat.
What are they gonna do? Their tiny asian bodies are no match for my superior Aryan genes. I am going there next year and I am going to fuck their women.

You're massively outnumbered there

Why did you tag me ? (I am user ) as my point was I didn't pretend to be local and had a fun time.

the girls dont like condoms so just make sure you get them pregnant. its okay. the kids will probably be models in 20 years.

Get off Yea Forums Abe

Scarlett Johansson's ass

I could take 5 of them with one arm. The others would be too intimidated by my display of dominance to do anything about it. We bombed their country and we'll bomb their pussy.

Yeah, I understand this guys fun. I just found it entertaining having no idea what I was ordering and finding out what I had.

kek

I don't see why it would be an issue for anyone staying for less than a year, definitely not a tourist. But other than that I can see it being very frustrating. Hell, I know some half nips who say they go to Japan and their grandparents shit on them and no one treats them normally.
If a good cunt wants to become a New Zealander, or live here, I will welcome them.

I get that Japanese do have a good point thinking they're better than everyone else.
And their isolationism and racial homogeneity keeps their culture distinct and interesting.

But I wouldn't do them like they'd do me if they came to my country for a better life. It is kind of bullshit. And I feel bad for those who have tried to make a life for themselves in Japan.

This. I felt just like Lain riding the train.

Japan will be fine to you as long as you do not pretend to be a local. You can be born there and not be viewed as a local. so it nothing personal.

It's not bullshit. You should be respectful of people in their countries when you visit and recognise that you are a guest there by their kindness. it's not a right to go to another country. It's a privilege. You are a guest.

Just because you personally don't feel that value in your own country doesn't mean you shouldn't respect the rest of us. You cause damage if you selfishly push your way on others and it ends up with them losing their home and culture. case in point: when chinese outnumber australians 10 to 1 on sydney streets and actually hate us rather than recognizing they are here because of our kindness.

Playing Yakuza prepared me for wandering around there. All the shops were just like in the games.

This shit is sadly true. These days chinese look down on Australia and treat it like trash all because we let anyone in. They then claim they're an oppressed class for being asian, though they are much richer than the aussies and have been given the gift of being able to come here by us.

They treat you nicely everywhere as a foreigner unless you behave like the king of the jungle, are arrogant and loud, break the rules that secure their precious order or pretend you know better what it means being Japanese than they do. I can't understand how this causes problem to anyone with half a brain.

Oh man, I'm moving to Japan next month and that's something that I fear; ordering the wrong thing or even not having the confidence to eat out.

>You should be respectful of people in their countries when you visit and recognise that you are a guest there by their kindness.
Of course. I said it's not an issue for any tourist or short term visitor.

>case in point: when chinese outnumber australians 10 to 1 on sydney streets and actually hate us rather than recognizing they are here because of our kindness.
I agree, and I support heavily restricting emigration in NZ. However, those who do come, I want them to feel welcome, and like they are citizens here, not guests.

it's literally because of daft selfish cunts like same type who go "hurr durr why do we even need a military, lets just disband it bro haha you think somebody is gonna attack our country? you racist bro!"

What the fuck? For real?

Most restaurants, even without English menu or English speaking staff have picture menus, just point and you're good. Also learn hiragana and katakana at least and you'll be fine. Definitely eat out, it would be a loss.

What the fuck are you talking about lad?
You sound like you didn't even read my post.

Well if they're citizens sure. If they're short term they're literally our guests right?

Foreign students are allowed to study here on the basis that it makes them like our country more and thus when they go back there is less chance of war. They simply wouldn't be allowed to come in otherwise.

What gets me is now they come here and our universities proceed to teach them what bad people we are, how bad we were in history, how our countries are "stolen" and not really ours, to hate white males etc.

I'm gonna stop now, I usually live in the real world this just bugged me a bit. You seem like an alright guy. We could probably reach a comfortable middle ground in real life.

Did you just laugh it off?

Yeah, it wasn't a big deal

I do understand your point here. we invite them for one reason then we do the opposite. it's almost as if (((those who are in charge))) want to break down any respect for the nation

>Well if they're citizens sure.
That's where you and nips would differ. Nips will always treat an immigrant like an outsider.

Hell i even respect that attitude on some level but I do empathize with the people who try to make a life there and get looked down on and treated like outsiders. Social death by a thousand cuts. Like constantly being patronized about their language skills even when they're fluent and have been there a decade.

Also btw the main reason we get so many foreign students is that they pay high fees.

Don't pretend to be me in a conversation cunt.

What you've got to remember is, to the Jap you're trying the 5 lines incorrect of Japanese you learned from your favorite Anime on you sound like the poo fresh off the boat that's calls everyone brah and tries to adopt a Cali accent. Fucking ridiculous.

>not wanting khazar milkers

Here's another example. My friend is half Japanese. Moved here when she was 6 and fluent. When she goes back to Japan to visit her Grandparents, it's not like 'coming home', they hardly welcome her and they basically consider her a foreigner. She even wanted to move back to live there and they basically all implied she could never ever fit in.

I think that's exceptionally cruel and it's really fucked her up.

>Dressed as a american businessman
Hey Americans, I have a question related to this.

Why do you guys wear black suits that are slightly too big around the shoulders and thighs, and hella wide ties to the office? Isn't black just for funerals and shit?

No shit you fuckin idiot

Why do you care?

>the main reason we get so many foreign students is that they pay high fees.

Sure but the reason we allowed them in the first place was for diplomacy, to improve relationships between countries basically. That's why there are visas for them. Same as our working holiday visas.

Or hell it could have always been about money and they just framed it as that to get the public to put up with it.

It looks classy and a sign of culture and respect

That's pretty sad. Is Japanese society really that bad ?

It's so disgustingly hot and humid in Japan it's awful during the summer

Some do get really fucked up after going overseas though. Japanese women who study abroad are often driven mad, from a Japanese perspective.

>Is Bill Murray really a big star? I only know him as the weird guy from Get Smart
KEK

>Like constantly being patronized about their language skills even when they're fluent and have been there a decade.

There are 3 sides to this:

1. like you said, a few people will just patronize people badly like you said

2. foreigners who live there for 10 years will lose perspective. they assume a person giving them a fork instead of chopsticks is racism. really it's because they're so used to people who are white asking for forks and they never met you before. Also, they will speak to you in English because they really want to use the fancy English they learned, not because they think you aren't speaking Japanese.

>From a japanese perspective, you're taking the few in case #1 and accusing all the well meaning people in case #2 with them. Basically you're calling Japanese people racist. This will make them hate you in a lot of cases, and rightfully so, you're causing them trouble.

no quote intended on #3, sorry, drinking whiskey

She is a foreigner user. She didn't receive the upbringing to become a Japanese that you get starting the elementary school. She probably does not even think like a Japanese person. Even if she moved in there, life would be hard, not only because people would make it hard for her, but also because she would not be able to conform easily. It could be that they think of her good when they say that.

Also, Japanese grandparents would probably not be touchy-feely in general, not to mention with grandkids they see once a few years or whatever. They easily get awkward and detached in relationships. Maybe things she does, not even aware of it, seem foreign and strange to them and they don't know how to deal with it. If she lived close for a while, maybe they would warm up to her. Or they actually do hate the fact their kid married a gaijin. She should talk to her Japanese parent about this.

Anyway, this is not a society you just walk in, anyone should be able to say that by now.

This. Same for Korea, I'll go any time of the year but summer. It's already bad enough in the mid Atlantic USA but they don't have real ac over there. That said Japan is my favorite place to vacation once you get the hang of avoiding mainland tourists

I wonder what Marie Kondo looks like naked.

>They dont understand sarcasm
>Small talk at parties involves talking about "How delicious this beer is"
How do you know any of this, why would you be at a party speaking japanese with japanese people if you're a tourist? Sounds like you went to visit your friends or something and they turned out to be retarded

Fun fact: Japanese Samurai were some of the first modern exchange students. They had a period where they'd learn to fight but there was nobody to fight, so then they'd learn everything else. As part of their studies they traveled.

Would make a great movie

If you stopped breaking into houses, Jamal, I'd stop shooting at you. You should be thankful I'm looking out for your kid and only winging you here and there. Go back to school, your mom said you're smart.

>Moved here when she was 6 and fluent
So she is a foreigner. She basically never lived in Japan as a conscious human.

Literally one of the greatest movies ever made don't fucking @ me

I'm not that guy but japanese parties arent usually at houses. They do have parties at houses but they're more like tea parties focused around a food and with like 4 friends.

Either way user is correct. You go to a bar or an event (closest thing to a party i guess, i went to a "beach party" like this) and yes while eating and drinking they all just repeat "mmm oishhiii!" "oiihsiiii!" "mm" "oishii ne!!" "hai!"

translation: "this is delicious" x 4

but maybe they just do this around foreigners or people they dont know well.

That's what i was thinking. the girl probably only uses japanese as her identity while in the western country because its cool to be some ethnic identity thats non white.

Yeah but how would you be talking to them? People do have parties in public but why would a random tourist be expected to get included and to have a meaningful conversation? If you were having a party and some random chink tourist came up to you trying to fit wouldn't that freak you out

oh you get invited. i got invited to the bikini party while on the train for instance, some girl came up and invited me and we went.

you make friends too obviously, from your work or at bars. people will come to talk to you everywhere though. And tinder is insanely good there too. I lived in osaka though where people are said to be more friendly than say Tokyo.

Oh also don't be fat, negative/sarcastic or left wing. I am not even exagerating.

>i got invited to the bikini party while on the train for instance, some girl came up and invited me and we went.

Watch out user, a nice interracial couple snuck into your hotel room.

I guess you could go to bars as a tourist.
>What is this bullshit you're pushing user?
yeah while my specific example isn't going to happen to you, what WILL happen to you is people will come up and talk to you. You will get invited places. It's best not to wait though, just use tinder or go to a bar to meet people. don't treat it like you're picking up.

You and every other white guy that has been to Japland. You’re not special.

'cos its one of the comfiest movies ever

Let me just add, you can make friends before you even go there. interpals.net is great.

An American friend in japan once told me "I'd be more surprised if you werent getting laid." and snapped some sense into me on this issue.

Sad thing is I'm good looking in my home country and girls like me there, but you stand me next to any other thin tall blonde guy in japan, no matter how ugly they are, and people will think we are equally attractive. They don't see looks, just a checklist.

kek

cuz is not a movie about a couple, is a movie about two lonely souls that find some company for a few days, only to gtfo back to their miserable life. Is too relatable.

>people will come up and talk to you. You will get invited places
I have been to Japan and no it doesn't happen, in fact I've never been to a place where I felt quiet as isolated and detached from society as Japan. They don't want you there. Kids will talk to you randomly saying shit like HAROO HAROOO and people will ask you for photos for some reason but no, nobody wants you there, you're like a weird animal they look at, that's all.
Sounds to me like you hooked up with people on the internet and you're pretending people randomly hook up in the street. That happens less in Japan than it does probably anywhere on the planet, they're all walking around isolated in their own little bubbles.

Be honest have any of you actually left your house

Japan comes across as a corporate plastic nightmare

I'm not pretending anything, we just had different experiences I guess. I rarely felt unwanted but sure some people would reveal that they felt that way openly and others flat out told me it's the popular opinion that nobody states in how they feel about foreigners. All the same, my experience was not effected by this.

>you're like a weird animal they look at, that's all.

Because people love Bill Murray for some fucking reason and it has Scarlett Johansson in it.

I'm glad they did. maybe i'm wrong about fat? that was just the impression I got. Maybe if you have a nice face it's alright?

It's a women only car and it's like that only in peak hours. Otherwise it becomes a normal car and it's ok to wait for it in that line obviously. It's not such a big deal, would be worse if he boarded it. But he could have spotted the huge pink markings on the ground.

thank you for highlighting this post for me user, it was hilarious.

And yes some were sluts i guess, i honestly didn't mind if they were and some of the friends i made there still message me a year later after ive left so i don't think those ones were just sluts.

It's no shame for a beta Japanese guy to be there, this 'alpha' guy is the one who should be ashamed. It's like going to a kindergarten and celebrating beating the kids at uno.

Christ that's hot. More?

Who cares what japs think. They are a conquered race. You can literally go around the city acting like a white nigger and they won't say a word out of fear. Just like what Jake Paul did.

Got any decent stories about hooking up with qt japs so I can live vicariously and never have to travel?

after reading your post the more i watch the clip the more i like the japanese otaku guy. he probably went home alone like a sad movie protagonist. im thinking of him at home alone, considering his life. maybe thinking of offing himself. im cheering for him. dont off yourself! survive!

Jap guy wanted to suck white dick

by that logic whites are also a conquered race as black people act like that in white cities and nobody says anything out of fear.

because every white girl that age thinks they're her
