lovely j won't let me post because: Client error: Sorry, there was a problem with content of the entry

WTF?!

edit: ok... it seems the link to the source is the problem... maybe I try tp put in into a comment

here's my text:

hm~ TOKYO VICE is going to be made into a film, with Daniel Radcliff as the main - ergo Jake Adelstein

I have the link to his side in my sidebar *point left*

hm, I kinda apprecciate the work Adelstein is doing

but I am not sure if this is a good idea - both for Adelstein (who already has a kind of arrogancy sometimes~ which kind of backfires on the good thing he's doing & it's known he tends to exaggerate... but what he never exaggerated about was the danger he brought his family~) and Radcliff (who will has to play a Jewish Journalist coming to Tokyo, cramming himself to High Japanese Skills and taking up a job at Yomiuri Shinbuns crime department, getting friendly with Yakuza, policemen & prostitutes - the story sounds good in a book but I fear the film could be a horrible fail -.-)

Oh... this will be interesting. Did you read the profile about Jake Adelstein in New Yorker? I can send it to you.

I haven't read it - yet. I should have the link somewhere though

I am followinghim since years - he's an interesting character, I learned a lot from his book and from his blog - but somehow his tendency to exaggerate is sometimes going overboard~ it's hard to judge from my position, also about how much people telling the truth, who are accusing him to lie or exaggerate... hm~ I am intersted and worried for this also damn ego-feeding project...


but yes, it could be interesting~

b/w have you read Tokyo Vice? or his blog/magazine (link's in my sidebar)? you can also follow him on Twitter
