i’m so slow

 

Paprika

Wacky soundtrack, and the visuals are pretty on-crack too (just look at the poster). Doesn’t have as much deep/confusing story line like some other ones, which can be a good thing.

Semi-old movie, and I liked it a LOT more than Tokyo Godfathers (same director). I think I missed the point completely on the latter, cuz people (the imdb crowd) seem to like it.

Anime movies are great. They’re not as time consuming as normal anime series.. which can last years, and the art is so much better than the TV stuff.

(yay the picture inserting tool is working again)

MGS4 Is Awesome

Almost the best game ever. Maybe it is.

It contains more than one game’s worth of awesomeness.

Shin Ramyun

Wikipedia to the rescue.

These things are painful to eat yet so good at the same time. I don’t remember when I first had it, but they’re everywhere now. Even Superstore and Costco have them. According the wikipedia, the pros add kimchi or extra hot sauce to it. Also saw on youtube that some people put a slice of cheese on it. I don’t think I’ll ever try that. I have it with an egg, thick sauce style.

No picture because my WP picture-adding function is funky.

O Ye

I secured one of those MGS4 PS3 bundles. There’s so much excitement around the game.. it’s like the first “real” launch title for PS3. It’s gonna be awesome.

I’m re-releasing my room-cleaning video from 2004. Digitally Remastered in higher quailty.

Some notables in this video:
-Steve’s in it.
-Doraemon
-I moved a box.

Gotta go now. What a sunny weekend :)

Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone

I usually don’t watch anime (not anymore), but this is too good to not blog about.

Evangelion started out as a TV series back in 1997 (10 years ago!). Since then, they’ve released movies, re-releases, and now a re-re-release. Unlike Gundam, which comes out with new series one after another, these Evangelion guys just does the same things over and over again. But it’s still so good! In other words, they milk their fans hard, and the fans are happily milked.

The thing is, they’ve done this so much that now, with this latest release, it’s pretty much perfect every frame. It’s awesome. And just look at the poster will give you a sense of the style they use. First of all, they use a weird naming scheme (1.0? and there’s a 1.01 DVD release), and the tag line has double meaning that it really doesn’t say anything.

Now this re-re-release project is still on-going. There are plans for 3 more movies, and DVDs. Wikipedia explains. I can’t wait.
