Member Kwok Choi Posted March 25, 2011 Member Share Posted March 25, 2011 We all know there has been 3 major disasters in succession in Japan and our heartfelt condolences go out to the entire Japanese nation and communities around the globe.However it will be good to know if many of the film fraternity both past and present survived this calamity. Please help with information if you know whether people like: Sonny Chiba Ken Watanabe Takeshi Kitano Etsuko Shiomi Takeshi Kaneshiro Takeshi Miike Hayao Miyazaki Hiroyuki Sanada Hideaki Ito Kazunari Ninomiya Nae Aya Ueto Yumiko Shaku and many other young and new stars are well and OK.

Member Gaijin84 Posted March 27, 2011 Member Share Posted March 27, 2011 http://twssg.blogspot.com/2011/03/news-asian-stars-lend-their-support-to.html Ken Watanabe handed out the best actor award at the Asian FIlm Awards in Hong Kong yesterday. I don't know if Japan is as celebrity-crazed as the US (is anyone?), but if any of these people were still missing I think it would be a pretty big story, no?

Member Kwok Choi Posted March 28, 2011 Author Member Share Posted March 28, 2011 I've found a list of celebrities who made it but have not had time to thoroughly check the names due to pressure at work so I'll post it then check later.The website mentions that if anyone is concerned about names not on the list they should let the website owners know so those people can be traced and also that the list will be updated when more information is available.Should this thread be moved to the Japanese movies section of is the General discussion section OK? http://www.tokyohive.com/2011/03/in-progress-compilation-of-celebrities-who-have-confirmed-safety/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator One Armed Boxer Posted March 31, 2011 Moderator Share Posted March 31, 2011 Should this thread be moved to the Japanese movies section of is the General discussion section OK? I think that should be a question for the moderators....oh, hold on.... Personally I feel you`ll probably get more response in the Japanese forum. I live in Tokyo and have yet to hear of any celebrity fatalaties from the disaster, which is probably a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
