Well, Al Pacino's film 88 minutes reached Japan before the US. Then again it's apparently pretty awful. Smaller films can take an age - Woody Allen's London films have only recently made it here!.

Proves my point haha - only the films not worth seeing are released quickly!

Yeah, defo not an issue as Korea/China/Phillipines etc. get simultaneous releases, only Japan is behind every time
