>>866 I have heard of Koda Kumi, but I haven't listened to her music or anything. I don't get into western stars who have that same image, either. It seems even more phony to me than the people who try to be perfect. Besides, I think it probably appeals to men more than women. Actually, didn't she fail an audition for Morning Musume? I think Britney Spears sued a Chinese singer for stealing her song. Koda Kumi is lucky that she got away with claiming that song as totally hers. >>873 Dove not only has commercials, but magazine ads and such also. They are a company that makes shampoo and lotion, and soap. In their ads they use women who are a little overweight, or flat-chested, etc., usually just in their underwear. I think it is just an attempt to sell their products to these types of women, but I can't deny that they have a respectable message when they say that beauty can come in many forms, and that we have been narrow-minded about it lately. I just don't think it is right to encourage women to remain at an unhealthy weight. These days, videos can definitely be photoshopped. I don't know how exactly they do it, but I have seen it. For example, in the early episodes of Kurosagi, the opening shows Yamapi laying in the grass and rolling over. In one of these episodes, that same clip was very noticeably photoshopped compared to the episodes that came before it.
Also, videos can definitely be edited in ways that conceal the truth. When you consider that, and visual illusions and CGI, it almost seems like people are likely to be fooled by video, because they assume that video doesn't lie.
>>874 I have seen a few different versions of the movie. You?
