Part of the magic that is Ebay is its power to help you track down things that you'd
ordinarily have a lot more trouble buying. Today's fine example, movies from
around the world. I'd picked up the Thai version of
BackSlash
a few months ago, and now the Japanese version of
The Shadow Walkers
is available on Ebay.
(Amazon.co.jp too, just in case you were wondering.)
One drawback with this particular title is that I don't get to hear what I sound
like in Japanese. While, yes, it's true that the monster noises you hear throughout
the movie are me, it's also true that they're pretty much language-neutral.
So, you know, if you get me growling and grunting, it's kind of hard to tell whether
I'm growling in English, Japanese, or Pig Latin.
It's really only when I'm growling in Swedish or Minnesotan than you can tell. Those
growls are different.
