Yeah, Japan's not that great. It's kinda cool and all, but it's not ten thousand times better than america as alot of people believe. Women are still treated as objects there. yeah, that's cool.

Japan isn't great at all. It's just another country that has different things.

Japan is no America (even if I am pissed at them right now, and let people know far too often), I just like the things they create. That's all really.

No country is godly. Japan is f***ed up, America is f***ed up, everyone is f***ed up.

Anime are great. Manga are great. They have good movies. They have ramen. That's it. A country in which women think it's normal that perverts grab their asses in the subway and which kills so much dolphins (THEY JUST CAN'T KILL DOLPHINS, DAMMIT!! ) that some bays are coloured completely red (I'm not kidding, there are pictures of that out there) doesn't get too much respect from me.

And then we have america, a country where gay men grab guy's asses in Wal-Mart, people kill each other daily, TV promotes men who sing about rape, and pollution/hunting/poching/government carelessness/oil spill, are killing tons of species every day.

Like I said, all countries suck. There is no perfect government, no perfect society, no perfect culture. I like the things that Japan creates, but that dosen't mean I support the killing of Dolphins. Dolphins are smarter than us, we just won't admit it. If they had hands, they'd have killed us long ago. Just cuz I like TMNT dosen't mean I support american hunters illegilly killing black bears just because it ate their lunch. Every country sucks, peroid. I like a country for it's creations, not it's destructiveness, cuz everyone is a murderer in that department.

Back on topic, who watched the finale? I thought it was alright, not near as good as the show used to be but alright. I liked the fact, that they had a final Joey-Chandler scene ("Awkward hug or lame cool-guy hand shake?" ) and David Schwimmer did a good job, too. Even Courtney Cox (obviously pregnant) wasn't as annoying as usual. All in all a mediocre ending for a formerly genius show but at least it was better than most of the rest of the previous two seasons.
The Jay Leno special was kinda idiotic, I can't understand why they showed all those bloopers, I mean, we have seen ALL of them in the bloopers special.
Oh, the Joey trailer... I'm not sure about it. I hope the show will be good, Matt Leblanc is a cool guy and it would make me kinda sad if the show was a flop.

I enjoyed the finale. I was kinda worried that Rachel really wasn't comin' back for a moment.

I saw it. It wasn't that great... they had been hyping the end of the series forever.

Technically, it's Jim Henson Company's fault, before Disney's (because they had NO money to do anything, which is why they sold)... Sure, we had that 2002 Christmas movie special... thing... but that's about it. Disney is planning to make at least a few movie specials and stuff... though I won't hold my breath for them to be that good (THey are planning a retelling of Wizard of Oz) they have stuff planned.... just not really going that far with it yet.

Yeah... the Friends thing was over-hyped, and there will be a DVD for those who care. Fraisier gone unnoticed (until the last 2 weeks) and other shows are disappearing without notice.

Why does everyone compare Friends to Seinfeld, then say Seinfeld's better? God, that annoys me to no end!

They compare them only because they are the two most successful sitcoms ever. That's the only reason.

To be quite honest... I wasn't sure if I wanted Rachel to get off the plane. I mean, I was all about Ross and Rachel getting together before. But you can only pull the 'I love you, now I don't, but I do... but we can't" stuff for so long... by the end I actually wanted her with Joey! *ducks any flying objects*

But, in the end, I suppose it's the only way the show could have ended. Though... I thought they spent too much of the hour on Ross and Rachel. But, I was still happy when they got toether at the end.

Well I know that the "Joey" Spin-off is gonna crash and burn

The Finale wasn't all that fantasic, the thing i enjoyed most out of it was the New Spider-man 2 Commercial

Umm...ditto. I'm glad that talk about Friends will be easier to avoid now that the show is finally over.
