Whether it be bobbing up and down like a boat.
Or going down like the Titanic.
The Queen Elizabeth love hotel is definitely the place to dock.
Or plunge an anchor even.
Plus it’s also where there are seamen gags aplenty, so to speak.

Whatever the desperate hopes were of those who deemed it desirable, barely visible bygone billboards at the base of carbuncle-like buildings don’t make them look much better — a bit maybe at best.
However, on big and beautiful old abodes, they are arguably not only befitting, but really quite becoming.
In a weapon-wielding wild man sort of way.

With the Sex and the City movie currently enjoying its Japanese theatrical release, men the length and breadth of the country may well be somewhat loathe to accompany their lady friends to the cinema; a situation that the owner of the rather miserable-looking multiplex below may well be looking to the make the most of.
The theatre’s current batch of releases apparently offering a far more off-colour and fella-based form of the firm favourite, although while the focus will still be very much on friends, there promises to be far less fawning over footwear.

In attempt to arouse some interest in the upcoming Japanese release of ‘Bee Movie’, the powers that be opted to parade busty beauty Aki Hoshino about in a bee coloured bodysuit.
A move that was something of a master stroke as it immediately had antennae all across the country trained on Hoshino-san’s heaving, erm, hives. Their promise of succulent sweet honey guaranteeing the film at least a certain amount of success.
The 30-year-old pin-up also took the opportunity to wax lyrically about her line of work, as despite being Japan’s oldest active pin-up, she claimed that, “I’d like to keep on working, and since I can’t give orders, I guess I’m a working bee, not a queen bee”.
A comment that presumably produced a blooming enormous buzz of relief.

With sumo dominated by Mongolians and Sony already fielding a foreigner in the fold, the giant of all Japanese giants, Godzilla, also seems to have finally succumb to the force of foreign infiltration.
His current disinclination to destroy Tokyo may well have something to do with it, but either way, the monster has at least temporarily been muscled out by that legendary loner the Loch Ness Monster — the secretive Scot currently making uncharacteristically bold appearances in Tokyo Bay.
Albeit due to the success of a sizeable water screen.
And, perhaps predictably, in the pursuit of promotional purposes.
