First off, much, much better than Borat. However, while there were definitely some very entertaining parts to the movie, I didn’t really come away thinking it was my favorite comedy. That’s probably because instead of a core feel-good story, you have sheer ludicrousness instead. Plus, the trailer gave away more than I thought it had. [...]

Meeeeeeh. Definitely a rental. If you’re bored. And have a few bucks to burn. I guess the creators thought they could just string together totally random events, and a great movie would plop out. Well, I guess it worked for some people, because the Rotten Tomatoes score is fairly good, but it’s overrated IMO. “O.M.G. [...]

Wow wtf. http://foodparty.tv/ The NY times article expired, but if you can find some clips, it’s very bizarre. It’s like pee wee herman + food + petite asian girl..

I like her voice (and the eyes, I’m a sucker for crescent-shaped eyes). Apparently she kinda shot herself in the foot by publicly dissing BoA a few years back though, BoA being a music superstar in Asia or something. Btw, what is it with Asian chicks and using the word “fag”? I’m tallying it in [...]

[Actually, if Southland keeps doing whatever it's doing, I think that could be the best show on regular broadcast. I keep forgetting it's not a cable show. Only the censoring brings me back. Lost is good in a mysterious kind of way, but sometimes the characters are annoying as hell or out of character, which [...]

Wuh woh, begin uber nerdy post! I’d give the movie a B, probably to the anger of my peers, but eh. I wasn’t going to write this, but since I was out of line from my friends who loved it, I felt I should defend my rationale. I’m not really a hardcore ST fan, so [...]

If you’ve ever wondered if there was a difference between generic, cheap floss and the “good stuff”, well wonder no more, because I have explored the mystery for you. And there is, indeed, a difference. I bought the cheapo safeway floss and I kind of feel like I’m flossing with razor wire. I am actually [...]

Ah, Miyazaki. His mama raised him right! I’m totally going to sound snobby, but I’m going to say it, “Pixar stuff is overrated” and Miyazaki stuff is underrated (in the States anyway). Uh oh. Maybe it’s the foreign factor (I suspect it’s a big factor). I was watching some youtube vids of clips/music from some [...]

Wow. I just finished watching Oldboy. What a mind-fuck. Mental flagellation. I’m still kind of stunned. I feel like I should wait for my mind to simmer down before writing further, because I can’t yet decide if I like the film or not. On the one hand, this is a very jacked up movie, and [...]

Kana: The first time I get off the boat, I see Kanzaki. I think, “Ooh! He’s so handsome. How I get this kind handsome man? More better than picture!” All the other brides look at us, tell me “Lucky!” He act so nice, so kind. I think I’m in paradise. Riyo: Why Kanzak-san change? [...]
