So me and my mom were discussing...well first we were discussing musical role made for big people going to not big people (Particularly Ursula in Broadway's Little Mermaid being skinny and rather sucking).

Which got us talking about the whole issue of people acting like any variation of Asian is swappable for any other in movies, and were talking about Rain in Speed Racer.

Mom: Well, they could have gotten some one from Japan....like that pink haired guy.
Me: ...huh?
Mom: Like...the musician you're always showing me...the pink haired guy!
Me: ...*Confused cause I never really talk about J-music, not being into it* Gackt?
Mom: Yeah him!
Me: ....but he doesn't have pink hair.
Mom: Really?
Me: ...mom are you talking about Shuichi?
Mom: Yeah! That sounds more right.

*headdesk*

So apparently my mom thinks they should have cast Shuichi in Speed Racer. IDK how they'd manage that. Thank god XP

Thank goodness Speed Racer was Shuichi free though =p

Shit he might have been in there with all the damn colores. You sure he didn't pull a cameo as a pink bush or something?

*totally thought you were talking about hide* http://ent.tom.com/img/assets/200604/060424zxmr07.jpg

but I know you and J-rock are a no, and Hide's been dead for like 10 years.

Your mom amuses me with her super ability to confuse Gackt with Shuichi.

Deleted and reposted because the links on this layout confuse me. >_<;;

AHAHA *is amused*


Actually, Gackt is gonna be in a movie o.0 with demi moore and that hot guy from wicker park 0.0

For a moment I almost said 'I'm sure Gackt has done pink hair.' ... then you said what she said, and I'm hoping she's seen that Shu is kinda animated.

Thank goodness I wasn't the only one not blown away by Broadway's Ursula. I don't know, maybe I'm just too used to healthy, SUPER ALTO Ursula, but... Meh. I mean, from what I've heard (my sister bought the soundtrack) she's certainly not BAD, just. Meh.
