STOP TAUNTING SHIZUKA ARAKAWA
Japanese skater, Shizuka Arakawa, won the gold in Torino but are the bitter Americans going to shake hands and say "Good game"? Never! Instead, they will use advertising for cheap-o horror movies to mock Arakawa and they will do it on Japanese TV.
The ad running in Japan for the upcoming release of THE EXORCISM OF EMILY ROSE has sparked a rash of complaints from viewers who are upset that at the end, the movie's star bends her demonically-possessed body backwards in what could only be interpreted as a sick imitation of Arakawa's signature backwards bend known as the "Ina Bauer."
Shocking! Demonic! Upsetting!
