[the trailers are the same except the English one features Bae Suel Gi speaking in heavily accented English]
Uljjang-turned-pop-singer Bae Seul-ki is making her Hollywood debut in the “global project” Finale. (It’s being called global because the money is coming from Hollywood, while the director and most of the acting talent hails from Europe.)
Bae flew to Germany in early December to finalize her contract and spent a week there, shooting early teaser segments for the film. Finale is described as taking after Tarantino’s Kill Bill genre (so, a pastiche of a pastiche?), while Bae’s role in the film is the “cold killer and daughter of a mafia boss”; the climax of the film apparently pits Italian and Korean and mafia against each other in a big action sequence.
Bae Seul-ki said of the experience:
“At first I felt a bit dazed too, but after going to Germany and shooting the teaser and preview, it’s starting to feel more real. Finale is shooting a different teaser preview for each main character, and I was one of the last. … When they showed my face splattered with blood using special effects, I got goosebumps, but working with the European staff was a fun experience. Right now, I’m busy studying acting and English. I want to get everything ready perfectly before we start production next May.”
Behind the camera is a new German director, Rouchdi Guedria. Co-stars include Jeanette Hain (The Young Victoria), Lorenzo Renzi (Gangs of New York), and Sergio Albelli (Miracle at St. Anna). The music director is another Korean, Jo Young-wook, who worked on Oldboy.
Finale is planning for a February 2010 release.

AAA is a Jpop Eurobeat group on Rhythm Zone, it's like a seven member group. They came to perform two years ago at the Otakon anime convention. So they had two concerts and two autograph sessions. Morning Musume is coming to Anime Expo in LA this summer and I'm trying to go!

Plane ticket:
ORF[Norfolk,Va] to LAX $360
{1 layover}
5:45AM leave.....10:45AM arrive
11:05PM...........9:45
A Hotel:
Hampton Inn = Free Breakfast!!! ---$139.00{for the night not yet divided between ppl}
Day Passes on the Metro:
$10 dollars for both days.
Anime Expo ticket:
Reserve concert ticket---$20 bucks
Actual ticket---$50 for 2 days
All in all it's about $500[until we get more people in our hotel room] for two days, which is a lot, but I mean when will I ever see Morning Musume again? So I suggest look for airline tickets at Cheap Tickets, Orbitz, and Travelocity.
