But the thing is, scratt, people from the West choosing to be ninjas would be a whole different ball game, because 'their' choice would be slanted by personality type, as opposed to arising from a cultural tradition. Wouldn't you agree? Especially wrt people who know little or nothing about Japanese culture.

A wise man once said, "It's better to be a pirate than to join the navy" or words to that effect. But the mutherfocker completely forgot about ninjary. ninjas clearly win in every way. no contest.

Ninja pirates are silly. Though Chris the Ninja Pirate is cool.

Ninjas all the way. How could anyone say differently? They have cool factor, cool-black-outfits factor and killing-people factor. Pirates just have talking-like-an-idiot factor and dressing-like-a-pansy factor. No contest.

You could rephrase the question as, who is cooler, Jet Li or Johnny Depp?

Not sure if that helps at all, but at least we're discussing soemthing of real academic value for once, rather than what journalism is, or some other similar irrelevancy...

No, that wasn't it. The lead part in the movie was a male pirate, matched with a female captive of noble birth (heh - all *kinds* of fantasy material here. hehe ). The female pirate was a more minor character, but she was definitely a 'real' pirate. I think I remember a tavern scene where the female captive and the female pirate have a duel with pistols. Since the female pirate was a great shot, someone sabotaged her weapon so that it misfired and covered her face in gunpowder soot. Very humiliating for her. Do you remember a scene like that?

I've never been crazy about Judy Garland, and am pretty sure I haven't seen the film you mentioned. Please tell me that dancing and singing weren't involved? *Not* in a vintage pirate movie. urk.
