You guys should check out Sakamichi no Apollon (Kids on the Slope) then, it's by the same director.

It's the same director, but after that the similarities between them are far and few between.

Question 20 was probably not meant for this much analysis, but here's my thought process on it. It says who would I "date", versus the usual "who would you f___" (the other fun activity I'd want to do with a really hot celebrity). Btw, I'm happily married.

- I can't pick someone who is too too hot, because chances are she's been with some hot guys and that just means that no matter how much I can make her laugh, 15 minutes into the date she'll receive that "emergency phone call from a friend" and she'll be gone.
- Some women that people listed are really tall -- for example, the beautiful Kate Upton is 5'10" so I'd look pretty stupid walking around with a girl who is 3 inches taller than me. If she wore heels, then I'm really going to look foolish.
- Some of the women might have kids already. That's a concern for me -- if some paparazzi snaps a photo of us and her kid sees it, that's going to be a very confusing and difficult time for them.
- Some women may have very high standards, the rich ones especially. Suddenly dinner and movie isn't going to cut it. And I'm a cheap guy.
- Some women have weird habits, like Kate Beckinsale smokes, and I'd be concerned about the whole second-hand smoke. And apparently she doesn't drink so the likelihood of getting her back to my place after the date with no alcohol involved is quite low.
- Then you've got some women who are just manlier than me. Like a Jessica Biel or Ann Hathaway or Kristin Kreuk.. these girls have kicked some serious ass and done some crazy stunts. I dunno, what happens if we get mugged on the way to the restaurant and she beats up the mugger? I'll never live it down. I don't think my male ego could handle that.

I ended up narrowing my choices down to Scarlett Johansson (5'4", sex goddess) and Kristen Bell (5'1", lover over sloths), and then I said to myself "OK. Between these two, realistically speaking, which one do I actually have a chance with? Kristen Bell is with Dax Sheppard, who is just a real goofball like me, whereas Scarlett has been with Ryan Reynolds, who is massive and also still funny. I'm thinking I can't beat Ryan but Dax, I mean the guy isn't even good looking.

So I picked Kristen Bell.

20) Assume your still single (if your currently not), celeb wise who would you date? Not sure she is a celebrity but LF's girlfriend - Jesus H. Christ she is ridiculous.

YES!!! How in the world did a scrub like Fields land her?

[hotfuzz]

20) Assume you're still single (if your currently not), celeb wise who would you date? Jessica Alba Circa from when she was on Flipper up til about 2008. Since she's whoring around with her husband and making babies nowadays, I guess I'll settle for Snooki.

I really hope that you're kidding about snooki.
