Huh. I never saw it like that. You know that the LA in the film is supposed to be a megalopolis combining SF and LA, right? So that, plus the idea that the Japanese were dominating technology during this time, was what I always felt Scott was trying to get across, rather than a fear of Asian culture.

OMG I love that character. And I love that scene when the movie director throws a milkshake at him from a limo!

Poo on them. Well, at least we agree on both of their greatnesses!

Plus, he gets bonus points for being one of the only people listed who can handle accent switcheroos with the greatest of ease. Case in point: Gina Torres, who is badass but sounded ridikerous on 'Alias.'

It has to do with the way that standard-formed grips sit in your hand. Sometimes you need a tiny bit more friction or expanded form in order for the weapon to rest the best way in your…

Welcome to Gawker! ;)

Which is, unquestionably, one of the raddest scenes ever in all of the movies.

I think Idris Elba is handling canceling the apocalypse for ya.
