I thought ansel elgort got semi cancelled for being horny on main It is kind of a shame that Tokyo vice has got the whole “white guy at the centre of bringing down yakuza bosses” thing going on or so the trailer makes it seem anyway

Zaslav just blatantly makes it known he gives no fucks and just wants that money. Yeah there isn't a difference between executives besides how they market themselves. They are all ignorant, dumb, short sighted self-righteous dorks after naked short term profit above all else. Once 'business' enters into art this is always what happens. It's the end goal by design.

(At least, the parts that he didn’t make up lol) I accept the show as mildly entertaining for what it is but it's far from the book, which was mainly about how working at a japanese company was weird and kinda sucked, and not so much about eg ninja attacks

You really feel the lumbering nature of disney. You guys like baby yoda (fad from 4 years ago, potentially 6-7 years ago by the time this movie is actually releasing), right

Was he the target of yakuza “snipers”? Did female sources agree to give him information only if he would sleep with them — with one woman in his book throwing a wad of 10,000 yen ($100) bills at him and demanding sexual satisfaction? Among those who have known and worked with Adelstein, sources assess that some of his more far-fetched adventures run the gamut from merely colorful and larger-than-life to “exaggerated” or, simply, “fiction.” https://globalitewatchdog.wordpress.com/2015/10/20/jake-adelstein-tokyo-vice-japan-journalist/ posted:–told the Foreign Correspondents Club of Japan that he turned down $500,000 offer from gangsters to keep his mouth shut. Gangsters deny this, telling Japanese reporters that they never heard of Adelstein.

He worked at a japanese company for several years and it sucked. That's about as far as I would trust him and honestly mostly what I remember from the book, though it has been almost 15 years since I read it at this point(!?!?)
