Japander is a combination of the words ‘Japan’, which stands – foolproof – for Japan and ‘Pander’ a nobler word for a pimp. It describes a Hollywood celebrity trying to earn big bucks in Nippon the fast way. Thanks to the Internet we can watch these bizarre masterpieces online since 2003. (The compression algorithms of 2003 only were sufficient for small movies I’m afraid.)
On the image above you can see Natalie Portman swordfighting for her deodorant, Bruce Willis with a sleepyhead – macho! – Nick Cage squaredancing with Aliens in the desert, the Simpsons drinking lemonade – obvisiously not without certain additives, Ewan MecGregor using the force to get his drink and Peter Falk – yes, Columbo – serving Whiskey. To Godzilla naturally. There are more treasures to be found, I promise! Try this, this or this.
