2009: All Look Same

Check this out:

www.alllooksame.com

Take the test. It asks you to judge 15 faces - are they Korean? Chinese? Japanese? Its funny....let me know how you do.

And the bonus point question:

The shot above is taken from a Korean/Japanese co-production called "2009: Lost Memories". I saw it the other night at a film fest called Fantasia which features mostly cult films, Asian films, sci-fi - geek fare. This one was a bit disappointing - too melodramatic for my taste and direction was very stilted. Or maybe thats just because they were mostly speaking Japanese and you know how inscrutable those Asians are... :P

Found an interesting site on alllooksame.

Its point is generally "alllookdifferent". Has a nice academic reference to "Northern European" alllooksameness.
