2. On Grovelbot's Big Board, I am assuming.
Some of the "stickies" are of people. Some I don't recognize. I assume neither does the OP.

Go Go Yubari from Kill Bill.

8. Donate to find out... When you do you'll have your choice to either write a message or post an image
Edited on Sun Aug-14-11 09:16 PM by NYC_SKP
For example, I posted an image I made to honor a DU member who recently passed, his name was Brien.



I miss him dearly.

:cry:

9. My thougtht was they might be Japanese actors or musicians...
Edited on Sun Aug-14-11 09:16 PM by SidDithers
and the donor is posting them as a tribute to the Japanese people and what they've endured with the earthquake, tsunami and Fukushima.

Purely a guess, tho.

Edit: no, that can't be right. Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Michelle Yeoh are not Japanese. Ken Watanabe, who is Japanese, is the only other one I recognize.

13. I recognized the 2 lead actresses from Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Toshiro Mifune, & Jackie Chan.
Bruce Lee, of course. One or two other faces looked sort of familiar but I couldn't place them. I wish there were a way to know who ALL of them are.

17. Someone must be an asian drama fan around here
Also Kimura from one of the oldest idol bands on the planet (they've been around for about 20 years) SMAP. He is a big deal in Japan. And Takenouchi Yutaka another actor who is well known. :) It really suprised me to see pictures of them here. :)

18. Who is the gorgeous guy to the left of the blue "Throw the Tea Party..." stickie?
(You have to click on the "Big Board" to see him.)

I'm not really that well-versed in Asian cinema, I used to catch a few Kirosawa movies in my younger days, and I own the DVD of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. That's about it.

I'm going to image google the other ones you named. :)

19. I'm pretty sure one of them is Jesus.
Anyway, he looks a lot like the pictures of Jesus that keep appearing on toast and waffles.

20. Yes, Jesus
though he's normally pictured with a shirt on except during the crucifixion.

21. Jesus looks like all of the hippie dads in "Spiritual Midwifery"
Or maybe a member of a southern rock band circa 1974.

You have to admit he DOES look like that guy that keeps showing up on burnt toast and water-stained walls.
