1. His best role was as a non-samurai

if you ask me. In Drunken Angel.

[Magrittes Pipe]

2. Never seen it.

Did he play a wussy?

[BigMcLargehuge]

3. a gangster in postwar Tokyo with tuburculosis

awesome film. You should go and rent it right now.

[Magrittes Pipe]

4. Tuberculosis makes people weak.

:P

[BigMcLargehuge]

5. Yep, and that was the point of his role as Matsunaga

and how he and Takashi Shimura bonded. Shimura was the drunken doctor who couldn't cope with the devestation of postwar Japan.

6. Was Godzilla in it?

Godzilla was tough.

[BigMcLargehuge]

7. No, but Takeshi Shimura was in Godzilla

8. Six degrees of Godzilla: David Spade

David Spade was in "Just Shoot Me," on which Kevin Sorbo made a guest appearance. Kevin Sorbo was in "Hercules and the Amazon Women" with Roma Downey, who was in "Touched by an Angel," which had Richard Chamberlain as a guest star. Richard Chamberlain was in "Shogun" with Toshiro Mifune, who was in some wussy movie with Takeshi Shimura. Takeshi Shimura was in "Godzilla, King of the Monsters!" with Godzilla.

10. Yeah, just look at what a scaredy-cat he is at the end of Throne of Blood.

I mean, production crews are always shooting dozens of actual arrows at their stars all the time.
