Memoirs of a Geisha is having a bunch of problems with their production due to translation difficulties on set. Instead of hiring Japanese actors to play the roles of Japanese people, the producers have decided to just grab whatever Asian people they can find under the assumption that they’re all basically the same. This is the type of thing that would normally piss me off, but as long as they’re finding more ways of putting Ziyi Zhang in front my face it’s all good. And if you’re wondering why I’m calling her Ziyi Zhang instead of Zhang Ziyi, read this and then go shoot yourself for being ignorant.

Heh, yeah, Ziyi Zhang if the hottest thing I’ve ever seen. I adore her, and I wish I could be like her. Sadly, I not chinese, I don’t speak it, I’m not famous, beautiful, an actress, or a model. O_o Oh well. xD
I’m currently reading the book Memoirs Of A Geshia, and so far, I love it. I’m on the 14th chapter, but I read about 8 chapters a day so it doesn’t count for much.
I’m going to watch the movie right after I’m done with the book. I heard the movie was a lot different and that there is no nudity, which is disapointing to me, but oh well. She makes up for everything.

Note that many of the segments in this business takes its idea of the previous Bond films, especially the scene where they drive the rickshaw.
