Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis "TV pilot" is actually an American-made parody of a Japanese TV show. There are several perhaps intentional mistakes in the pilot: - The label of the green coffee bag is upside down katakana, but only says gibberish. - The news channel being shown is in Chinese, not Japanese. - The actors are badly trying to hide their North American accent. The daughter is speaking Japanese in obvious North American accent. - The crew listed in the credits all have American sounding names. They are just written in katakana.

Featured review
This short was awful. I don't think there's anything offensive about it, the whole premise was stupid. First of all, hip hop is very popular in Japan and there are plenty of good Japanese rappers. There's nothing unusual about Japanese dressing in hip hop fashion or trying to emulate African Americans. Go online and listen to MP3s of Kick The Can Crew and Rip Slyme. The directors of this film are two unfunny white guys who thought it would be hilarious to have a Japanese family say Whas up ni**er every 5 seconds. The acting was horrible. People who like the FOX show Banzai probably thought this was funny. It might have been good if they set it in a country where hip hop is unknown, like Saudi Arabia.
PS: Congratulations on The Onion Movie going straight to DVD. Kuntz and Maguire will never work in Hollywood again. They're probably down at the bus station begging for change right now. Karma, ain't it grand!
