It's just like the title says ... what are the Japanese opinions of recent popular box office movies.
This is partially brought on by a talk one of my co workers and I were having about Dark Knight and he mentioned how it had completely bombed in Japan while in N. American and Europe it grossed so much it took second place only to Titanic.
As well, Sin City, another hit here, tanked in Japan.
So, different cultures, different tastes. It would be interesting to hear the opinion of the Japanese (or what those of you living in Japan have heard from friends and family) on what they think of recent popular movies (i.e. Watchmen, Coraline, Dark Knight etc).
