  • 2:12

    Harry Potter ^_^

  • Maybe the main reason I understand English is because of subtitled shows and movies so dubbing seems quite stupid if it is not a kids movie. Same goes for Japanese movies and anime. I always learn new words from there!

  • 10 dollars for a large bag of popcorn & 2 Large Drinks? Japan sure does know how to treat you right on prices.

  • oh Japan some day I will come I promise

    but all the movie there speaks Japanese or also English??? please

    someone answer me

  • @ALia4888 watch the video

    he explains it

  • @ALia4888

    I watched the last two Harry Potter movies and the movie 2012 in cinemas in Japan and they were in English with Japanese subtitles.

  • Trusting you to fill your bag. Now that's different.

  • Churros are everywhere in Mexico. :D

  • @PeircedinBlood they also have Churros here in NY

  • Churro so yummy ....yep south american dessert

  • not expensive??????/

  • are the food rediculuosly expensive like the other country let along American theatres? haha, yeah, i spend about $40 worth of nachos everytime I go to a movie.

  • WTF at 0:14

    is that Sonic the hedgehog?!

  • Dude!!! Japan always has better stuff than America!!! We dont have half that many candies and never any forgien movies unless they are remade by American Studio's!!

  • Its alot cleaner then the one by me !

  • Churros!!! 

  • TROLL, THE LEGACY

  • lol, i love that Screens with Movie info :D!

  • 0:16-0:18 Space Battleship Yamato!!!!!

  • churros!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! best treat EVER! Sugar sticks! is what they is! mEXICAN YUMS! XD Now i really wanna go to Japan if they have churros! hehe. getting excited for the wrong culture sorry! XD Cant wait to go to JAPAN!

  • wow! there are more english words in Japan than I would have thought! :D

  • where that cinema was located? it looks so much the same where I watched a japanese film when I was travelling in Japan

  • Scoop'n'go

  • I love your videos, just thought I'd say. (:

    Thank you so much for taking the time to make them!

    P.S. Yeah, churros are from South America (but originally Spain I think) and we have them all over here in the U.S.

  • @mebeAvi Yes churros are from originally from Spain. We often have them for breakfast dip them in coffee, It quite common for people to party all night have churros from a "churreria" in the morning and then go home to sleep. Don't know if they do the same in South America.

  • @ojedarob

    Umm... me neither.... but they probably do.

    I just know that in the U.S. we don't have specific 'churreia's, but a lot of bakeries sell them. (I love them personally, but they're not very healthy, haha)

    [:

  • Hey, when is the new Studio Ghibli movie coming out...?

  • I've worked in a cinema - there;s no difference at all! Except the floors are clean!

  • YEAH!!!! You did one on the movies!! ARIGATO. I've been asking for a bit! THANK YOU SO MUCH

  • Awesome that you can have green or black tea to watch your movie!

  • Wow everything in Japan is better. You only get to choose a king size box of candy here in america and they jack the prices up 3 times as much as they should be.

  • Screens?

    I thought movie theater had projectors and a concrete wall ^_^

  • im guessing food and drinks in cinemas are universally extremely overpriced and usually cost more than the movie

  • Thank you for the movie theater info. I am to poor to go to a movie in todays times. I was cheap back in the day 10 dollars could get you a ticket for two adults two bags of popcorn,and two drinks. Times have changed.

  • Thank you for the movie info.

  • Did I see that right? 600 yen for a coke? That's like 8 dollars US. My God I thought we had it bad!

  • BE SURE TO WATCH THE ORIGINAL TRON 1st BEFORE YOU GO TO SEE TRON LEGACY! I HAVE SPOKEN !!! (go to IMDB dot COM and type in "TRON" to see the details on the original movie)... Thumbs up for Digital Show Time Screens (^_^)

  • cool vids, keep up the good work!

  • That saw 3D poster was kick ass;)

  • cinemas are to expensive in Japan, like 4x as much as europe

  • @lukemomo1

    That all depends what country you are from :-D

  • @TheJapanChannelDcom  *crickets* (-.- )

  • @lukemomo1 Theater and theatre are both correct.

  • @lukemomo1 u misspelled you.

  • @lukemomo1 If you're going to tell someone you misspelled something; you should correct your way of typing a sentence, lol.

    And yes depending which country you are from there is different ways of spelling yet they all have the same meaning. Glad you know how to spell 'Theater' by American-English standard!

  • @lukemomo1 exactly. its spelt theatre pretty much everywhere except the u.s just like the u.s spells color, its spelt colour almost everywhere else

  • @therealkyleborges wow i did not know that! thanks for the English grammar lesson

  • If you tell us your Hollywood name like,Tom or Brad, we don't have to call you The Japan Channel Dcom.

  • @109mytiger

    My first name is "The"

    But my friends call me TJC :-D

  • @TheJapanChannelDcom can i say just TJ? sounds better to me

  • @TheJapanChannelDcom yum! churros! those are my fave <3 its fried dough coated in sugar. Its a heart attack in a cute stick shape xD gotta love em! usually we eat them by dipping them in hot cocoa :D

  • Yum churros. :)

  • churros are from bloody spain, do a simple google search

  • churos are from mexico

  • they got churros? churros es muy bueno! i now have another reason to want to go to japan.

  • I'll have to go to a theatre in Japan sometime. <3

  • wow looks like a better menu then at my local theatre and are the seats assigned i read that in a travel magazine?

    oohh i love that coke fountain

  • im surprised there is no stuff like sushi,takoyaki or ramen at the movie theaters. i know some sports stadiums over there do.

  • omg tht counter is completely empty!! Ummm popcorn n soda....tht's it?! o.O

  • Coke definitely rules the world.

    I want to go to a Japanese cinema, it'd be cool! :P

  • I dont really buy any snacks/drinks at all at the theatre, because they are pretty expensive especially the candy. I always smuggle a small can of roasted and salted peanuts inside.

  • Coke rules the world! What coke we talking about? (:

  • churros. Originally from Spain. Eat them in Texas all the time.

  • How much do tickets cost? It's 1315 (JPY) here

  • wow they definetly don't serve tea at american movie thaters. that would be nice. that would be the healthiest item available.

  • "Toron" ^^

  • cUrros. lol its mexican not south american...

  • Here in New York City we have a gun and knife check station where you can store your weapons, but I mean really why would you - if you get into an argument over seating you really want your gun nearby. Just me, maybe...

  • LOL the scale says "Scoop 'n' go"!

    Sounds very American, if you ask me...

    Thanks for all your hard work, mate!

  • Do you mean "churros?"

  • @0diidii0 YES

  • I once heard that you can take ur OWN FOOD in with you.. as in food you got from outside the cinema... is that true?.. coz all other cinemas around the world don't allow any food u bought from outside...

    ARIGATOU GOZAIMASU ^^Y

  • @SmilingMaram yha its true u can bring ur food inside the cinema the english movies is sub...

  • that's an good idea!! Haven't been in a Japanese cinema yet!! But yey, it looks pretty familiar ;)

  • great one my friend. I love going to the movies and my fav thing is how different the theaters can be. thanks for sharing. yours Earl

  • that theater look like the inside of the ship from star trek!

  • I'm surprised to see all the actual "Japanese films" because when I lived in Japan (2001-2003) there were an overwhelming amount of American films at the theater. I always felt like, "Am I in Japan or America?"

    Good to see times have changed and there are more Japanese films being shown in their own country

  • its true that some porn cinemas have a beds if you go with a partnert and have a some fun apart?

  • I've heard that video taping the movies is EXTREMELY restricted in Japan with harsher punishments. I'm surprised they even let you have them inside the lobby.

  • Plus, I just like to eat in general :P I take advantage of every opportunity if the food is good and not too expensive.

  • Churros are a mexican food. I had my first Churro in Tokyo Disney Sea last March on my birthday actually! :3

  • Do you ever need to ask permission to film? Have you ever encountered any problems while making these videos?

  • Wow, churros in Japan? I never would have guessed.

  • @lordcoyote2000

    they even have burritos and tacos.

  • the prices are actually lower than in my city. furthermore the purchasing power of japanese people cannot even be compared to the one here. makes me feel very good :/

  • our theatre is $10 for a ticket at night, a small drink is i think $5... not even going to mention food prices...

  • What are the portions like at the Theater? In the states the drinks are super huge. (way too much if you ask me)

  • @theeyesofanother

    way to little imo for the price.

  • My friend just found out that S.P was becoming a film. She now wants to go back to Japan to see it!

  • 600 yen for coke and hot dog? That aint so bad... (If sold in Australia, it'd be double that :P)

    I like how the cinema is very clean though :)

  • Worst thing about theatres...the bloody prices. And according to the comments...worldwide problem.

  • I never really fool with theater food because it is usually overpriced. I usually try to sneak food in or not eat at all to save money. Good video though.

  • I was at Toho Cinemas in Roppongi last week and I thought the theater was way different from back in America. We got to choose our own row before we even went into the theater, there was way more emphasis on videotaping the films (piracy), and there was a staff that sorted our trash for us as we left the theater. None of this is like back home.

  • Dang, I actually wanted to see a movie when I was in Tokyo last week but was a little anxious about how different things might be.I know for the movie I saw in Thailand you have to stand in honor of the King while they played the national anthem before the movie started. And they have special seating sections aside from the general admission seats... Nothing like that in Japan?

  • you are so right cocaine rules the world....lol

  • The theaters look cleaner and have a better selection than movies here in the US.

  • Movie theatres in India rocks. They have waiters bring you your food/snacks to your seat. You can order while you're seated. This happens during intermission. Intermission basically being a 5-10 minute break when people go use the bathroom or go out and get more snacks. 

  • They're spanish, they were brought to mexico later

  • Churros is from Spain, but it's very popular in Mexico and South America. I love churros with dulce de leche and cinnamon.

    Sorry my bad english! Greetings from Brazil!

  • The United States has TERRIBLE food and candy at the theatre. :(

  • @SagaciousSilence the worst part is the price! lol something there thats $2 you can prob get for 99 cents somewhere else

  • Churros in Japan, nice!

  • While I was there, I went and saw Inception TWICE in the theater that's in some tall building right next to Nagoya Station. I don't know how we managed to find it but.. it was very expensive! One thing I noticed that was different is that the prices are cheaper at night as opposed to the day, (I think it was like $12) and we also had to pick our seats before entering the theater. Which we found strange since there were a bunch open and the lady told us we had to sit in a specific row... o_o

  • @bbygrl4055 the same thing happens in India. you have to pick your own seat (they show you a chart where you can see the seating arrangements of the entire theatre) so most ppl call the theatre beforehand and choose their seats. if you're late, you end up getting the bad seats(closer to the screen). you also get frisked at indian movie theatres cuz there's the threat of movie piracy as well as terrorism.

  • After this video I just had to Wiki the Churros thing and apparently they are from Spain (kind of bummed since I'm Mexican and always thought they came from Mexico, lol), but they are very popular in Mexico too, you can get the regular ones like they show in the movie theater or get stuffed ones that have chocolate, or strawberry jelly too.

  • I think every theater has Churros =} it must be some kinda mandatory thing.

  • @ARCANIAN88 We don't have 'em in Canada, mostly popcorn, nachos, and hot dogs here.

  • you made me wanna go to the movie theater! it's holiday in japan and it's chilly today! thanks for the idea! ^3^

  • Are the junk food prices as bad as in Aus? In adelaide, you pay like $5-6 for a 150G of maltesers o.0 and a bag of chips is like $4. If you paid $20 for a bag of candy you got a deal! lol

  • Interessting Video! Thumbs up

  • WOW, they already have those New World Order STASI&GESTAPO-movies rolled out into cinemas there... what an advancement on their democracy ...

  • it seemed pretty empty

  • That sign should've said scoop'n'pay'n'go

  • wow churros in japan. is mexican or latin american food polular or even known there? how are the native japanese moves?

  • XD i so want to see tron in japanese i bet its epic

  • wikipedia churross

    ????

    profit

  • churros are from mexico

  • Are anime movies shown in the cinema? Like... for example.. the new Bleach movie (The Hell Verse) comes out soon so would that be shown in the cinema or TV?

  • Spain, but who cares? They are so good! Like your videos! Thanks for your insight into Japanese culture because I have always been interested in Japan, but only when I stumbled upon your videos did I get any actual information about Japanese culture. Just wanted to thank you for all your interesting and informative videos.

  • churros are from spain

  • @pudgeypigeon no they are from mexico, im mexican and i know they are from my country, they are very popular in the winter, with their chocolate cover and a cup of coffee, simply delicious!

  • @ihatefakersandposers AND I'm from spain and I'm telling you their from spain they are all over in the holiday season, and in the same manner, chocolate covered or roll them in sugar or dip them in coffee either way they are delicious. this might just be one of those noone ever really knows

  • @pudgeypigeon jajaja pues hablame en español tio :3

  • Churros are from Spain!

  • Churros originated in Spain but are very popular in South America and here in southern California were i live and other parts of the US.

    P.S. great vid like always

  • Are the patrons well-mannered in the cinema? Do they talk on mobiles phones and put feet on the seats?

  • i saw this movie theatre in Tokyo and it was in one of the smaller buildings (almost akihabara thin) and very small.

  • Churros are indeed from Spain. They're actually a type of doughnut, from what I've learned.

  • churos are from mexico

  • They are originated from Spain, but they are popular in other latino countries too. So that's probably why a lot of people think they are mexican. A lot of people assume all hispanic stuff is Mexican.

  • The good churros come from Mexico, but they were originally from Spain. =P

  • hahahaha churros in japan...nice, they look like our movie theaters, i hate when everything is translated and the original audio its not available, churros are from mexico, FELIZ DIA DE LOS MUERTOS...!!! (happy day of the dead)

  • I love churros, in Argentinean cinemas don't sell churros i don't know way, i wish they would, but I'm not in Argentina anymore so whatever haha. In the US there is a lot of popcorn xP.

    About the movies, here in the US, they only show American movies :(, in Argentina they show most American movies and some time European and Argentinians but in both countries never show Asian movies, except the anime ones. I wish they would :)

  • Great Video.

    

  • Pick-and-go candy at a theater?? really?? O.o Seems like kind of a cheapo way to save money if you ask me. I know some of the candy there is pretty good, but I still much prefer the brand name shit like Reese's peanut butter cups, Twizzler's, cookie dough bites, etc. over that generic shit. Pick-and-go reminds me of the fucking grocery store. I think that's where they're most common.

  • @whoo689 What is your deal with needing to have a huge, overpriced selection of name brand candy when you see a movie?

  • Well, it's not like I get the most expensive thing, or even a bunch of things when I am at the theater. Usually I just get one candy item and a Mountain Dew. It just feels right. It helps add to the experience. Must be the dopamine or sensations induced by the chocolate ;)

  • Hot tea? At a Theatre? That actually sounds like a pretty good alternative, actually.

  • Where are the soda machines?? Do they not offer much soda in Japanese theaters at the counter?? Kinda ironic considering there's some thing in front of the registers that says "Coca Cola" with a big image of a bottle.

    And is it just me, or did that theater seem unusually slow when you were there? Usually theaters here in the states, for example, get a good number of people each day, esp. on weekends. Lines can be long as fuck sometimes.

  • @whoo689 Wait... are those things that say "Coca cola" the ACTUAL soda machines in the theater where they fill up your cup?? Seems like it could only fit 1-3 soda dispensers (maybe just Coke), which is an incredibly limited selection.

    I'd feel very out of place in a Japanese movie theater. Seems like they just do the bare minimum. :P I guess seeing movies isn't much of a pastime there.

  • At :18 or :19 is that Sonic the Hedgehog in that movie poster?? LOl

  • i watched terminator 3 subtitled in japanese in the roppongi kino - and ive to say: this was the best cinema i ever went to.

    it was so huge&clean, the sound was ultraperfect and the picture really in HD.

    with the old currency rate (may last year) it costed 'bout 13€ and this is pretty much the same you have to pay in berlin - with less quality ;D

  • Could you do insects in japan, because I am scared crapless of insects.

  • Churros .. sooooo f-ing gooood! 

  • mexico

  • ohhh tron legacy thats a new movie from america :)

  • Churros are from Mexico, 100% sure. And Mexico is in North America.

  • Churros can be found in both places. From what I was told, they originated in Spain and went with them to Mexico. In Mexico churros are really big during the winter-time.

  • churros are  from mexico

  • Churros, sometimes referred to as a Spanish doughnut, are fried-dough pastry-based snacks, sometimes made from potato dough, that originated in Spain.

    Although they are popular in many other places, there from Spain, a quick search in

    google tells you so.

  • does anyone else find it almost impossible to watch japanese dubbed or even subtitled movies in America? I am having a lot of trouble finding japanese dubbed versions of my favorite films.. any tips?

  • *View all comments* *Command+f(ind)* *churros* 19 results... lol ^_^

  • Well they origin from Spain but are very popular in Portugal, and they are diferent from the ones found in Spain.

  • Churros are from Portugal actually ;). You can buy them in carnivals during the summer.

  • churros are from soth america indeed. quite tasty, when filled with cooked condensed milk and a mug of hot chocolate. Not so healthy, I must say... but who cares? :P

  • churros <333333333 love those, they sell them a lot around my neighborhood.

  • *fixates on the Coca-Cola display*

    That movie *does* look good from the posters of it...

  • mmmmm i love churros. they're mexican/ you can tell by the name :D, now i feel like having churros, mmmmm

  • Hey I was just wondering considering you mentioned that films were either translated or dubbed into Japanese, but let's say Shakespeare, is that also translated into Japanese or would they have no knowledge about him or his works?

  • @HillBillyDrew

    We know Shakespeare of course.

    Akira Kurosawa made some movies based on his works.

    And most Japanese prefer subbed versions to dubbed ones, because we want to hear the actual voice of actors and actresses.

  • Churros are awesome

  • churros are Mexican lol usually rolled in sugar

  • Looks just like the theaters here in the U.S. Pretty much the same food. Though we have mini pizzas, icees, and giant pretzels as well as hot dogs, coffee, and of course popcorn. And in some theaters they sell popcorn seasoning (they're just like little salt shakers that come in nacho cheese, white cheddar, or kettle corn). You just sprinkle it on your popcorn. Kinda strange.

  • I soooo want to see SP!!!!!! I loved the drama

  • Those candies are very good, i always waste money on them when i go to the movies.

  • No beer ?

  • looks a lot cleaner and a lot lot less busy... maby has something to do with them always turning up on time to stuff or something?

  • Generally when it comes to cinemas the quality depends on the company, for example here in the UK Odeon used to be popular but now there has been a rise in Cineworlds. There is always over-priced sweets and usually at least two arcade games like TimeCop.

    Tron Legacy cant be out in Japan...its not even out in America or Europe until December. That is strange.

  • WRONG !!!, here in UK, cinemas look like a HOT BAG OF SHIT !!!! , america and japanese theatres look so much better for some reason . . . also the screen size is small, i remember around 10 years ago there was a cinema in the city that had huge screens, now they are rare to come by in my city, only the imax are large, everywhere else is SHIT !!!! , also those hotdogs are a RIP OFF, 600 YEN ? 10 dollars ? 5 pounds ? , they cost like 1 pound at IKEA LMAOOOOO

  • @WOOF1234567891 they dont sell hot dogs at ikea mate :D
