Star Wars: Jews For Japan?

Published Sat, 09 Jan 2010 09:00:56 -0600

The latest edition of Diamond Previews has a listing for what they describe as a Star Wars: Japanese Poster Black T-Shirt.

Does it look a little not-Japanese to you? Maybe it's the font? Maybe it's my Westernised eyes, not being able to identify kanji, hiragana or katakana letters.

Or maybe, just maybe, it's actually the Israeli Star Wars poster, and instead of Japanese lettering, that's Hebrew. With the tag-line describing the film as "a western in space, a movie that is all 'fun'".

I knew that research for Watchmensch would come in handy…
