*tingles* The newest look at Burton’s version of Alice.
Does it give you the chills?
By the way, have you checked SyFy’s miniseries version of Alice?
You will fall in love with Hatter. So… hawt. He will ask you to go
back to your world with him, and you just gotta say yes.

Julz sent this to my email, and then saw it on Nippon Cinema.
Thank you, Yu. Just what I asked for!
And before I get to see Ike-chan! LOL
Also, gonna quote NC coz it seems more precise. Yu and Masaki Okada have worked together on Honokaa Boy, but Yu was in such a small portion of the first 10 minutes of the film, that it shouldn’ t really count as working together. LOL
But here goes~
Yu Aoi and Masaki Okada are set to star in an upcoming jidaigeki film called Raiou, which is based on a best-selling novel by Mari Ueza inspired by Shakespeare’s classic tale of star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet.
…
Okada will play Narimichi, a young man born into the family of the shogunate, and thus bound by the shackles of his own bloodline and the expectations of Edo period society. Aoi will play Yu, a girl who has been living deep in the mountains since being kidnapped at a young age. Under normal circumstances, these two would never cross paths, but a chance encounter in front of a strange tree called “Raiou” sparks an unlikely romance.
The project will be directed by Ryuichi Hiroki who previously worked on Eita’s movie April Bride, which I dunno… gives me some doubts. I didn’t really think much of April Bride, and I do love Eita a lot. However, the idea of Aoi playing a “savage” [insert shameless Savage Yejin plug here] makes it interesting.
Nominations are in! Just with a quick look, I’ve only seen 60% of the nominees, so I’m excited to see the rest. Looking good for some of those peoples there. Not really big surprises, except for a couple double nominations and one double nomination in a category… and some new names in the Foreign category.
My scandalous and ironic side says Peruvians will hate Chile even more (for unnecessary issues) – dearest The Milk of Sorrow didn’t make it to the list.
Also! Jumpy claps for Glee!! and Jumpy bloody hands for Dexter!!
Another Crowd Lu song to make you smile =D
That version makes me smile so much, with the hugging yourself dance LOL. However, if you wanna know what the song says in English you should check out this video here.
Congrats, Amy! You’ve made it a year!
Now please, get to work on that website you’ve been talking about all this time.
Yeah, where is Nate? Yeah, that. Nate and I are working on something else, which is nothing at the moment… just a random gig, which will hopefully fuel our bank accounts a bit and let us work on YAM fully for a month or two…
This is Julz 2nd straight cover. Hooray! Omedetou!!!
In it she covered the Stockholm Film Festival… met Susan Sarandon xD, there’s a Q&A with Sin Nombre director Cary Fukunaga, reviews for Precious, Up in the Air, Koreeda’s Air Doll, Map of the Sounds of Tokyo, The Cove, Thirst, Dexter Season 4, Sasameki Koto, Family Outing, Les Amants Papillons, 2pm, Shinee, Rihanna, The Swell Seasons, Crowd Lu and more!

More nominations. Are you keeping up?
These nominations seem like a pretty random bunch. Especially considering Nine has had little to no love until now… with 10 nominations (a big WEEEE for Marion!!), and also finally some love true for Inglourious Basterds~
BEST PICTURE
Avatar
An Education
The Hurt Locker
Inglourious Basterds
Invictus
Nine
Precious
A Serious Man
Up
Up in the Air
The New York Film Critics also revealed their choices for this year, and Hurt Locker is already a lock for a Best Picture coming newer nominations, which would mean a serious female director for the win… finally.
Also, more snubs for Carey Mulligan, and mixes for Best Actor. But Supporting are locks.
Winners after the break.
Greedy Boy tells the story of a boy (?) who eats everything without stopping… kind of a gruesome ending~~~ and a new cycle begins! Those jumping scenes reminded me of Tekkon.
Animation is rocking on this one~ Big cheers to Kim Young Ha.
