No, I’m not talking sushi. I’m talking about Japan’s blockbuster sports marine invertebrate films!
Check out Kani the Goalkeeper and Calamari Wrestler below and I dare you to tell me they don’t have Oscar written all over them!

I love “The Calamari Wrestler”! Actually, I own the action figure (he’s on a shelf above my computer and gazing, in true ceph fashion, stoically into the distance pondering life’s intricacies).
OMG! There’s a Calamari Wrestler Action Figure!! WANT!!
Is the bad guy they show at the end of the Calamari Wrestler a mantis shrimp? I cant get a good look at it.
Truly an epic climactic battle if it is.
Yes, The Calamari Wrestler fights an octopus, and then when you think the movie is over, suddenly a mantis shrimp man appears and it all starts over again! My girlfriend and I watched this on one of our first dates and it set the tone for a wonderful relationship. I recommend.
