The video is worth a giggle ... as is the page on Gina.

Ive seen some of those nightmares they call commercials, it certainly left an impression.

But two things.....

I want to see the behind the scenes footage. I imagine Arnold speaking in broken English to another Japanese man who is speaking in broken English about how loud to yell as he orbits the earth on a box of Ramen.

Second thing. Who in the hell is making these commercials. Its like a toddler freebasing amphetamines is deciding how to best sell soda (Maybe? or coffee drink....).

The noodle ones are ok, the coffee ones are ok, but the energy drink ones are totally WTF.

As far as the Japanses are concerned Arnie is probably the godfather of cosplay ... Conan.

Haha, although there's not much on the costume.
