  • This is Still my Fandom

    DSC_0099

    I know that except from my 5th Year Anniversary Wiki Update [1], things have been usually pretty quiet on the Yu front. It usually is pretty slow during these months, as Yu’s activities tend to pick up by August all the way into December, January and February.

    Though my fandomess (that’s not even a word) has diminished, Yu still has a special place in my fangirly heart. I would totally be giddy with a new movie, and specially with starring on a new jdrama (as a lead, not guest). I’m not as an ardent fan of Yu’s passion for shaved ice, so those books are missing from my collection, as well as her first few photobooks. But as you can see, I’ve kept on supporting her any way I could.

    I’m still waiting to catch Vampire. The Shunji Iwai Festival team on Weibo told me it would be “soon” when I get to catch it on a proper online channel, so I’m crossing my fingers.

    I do miss that doki doki feeling I used to get when this fandom started. Maybe I’ll re-watch Osen to recapture that feeling. LOL


  • Sammi Cheng in Cannes 2013

    Damn, I know very little about Sammi Cheng — I may have heard a song or two (maybe?) — but damn~ that’s hot. Super hot. Vampire Shane Hot. LOL


  • Dream Collaboration: Ang Lee + Nicole Kidman

    I don’t know how this didn’t come to me before this photo.

    After her collaboration with Bong Joon-ho, and that she so wanted to work with Wong Kar-wai — it only makes sense that she wouldn’t mind working with Ang Lee, after all~ he’s won two Oscars for director. He hasn’t actually made his actors win anything, even though Heath Ledger should’ve won for Brokeback Mountain as Best Actor instead of Supporting for Batman.

    Kidman has a great selection of director’s on her filmography. One of the very few with really REALLY interesting choices [1].


  • My Teenhood Crushes

    I ran into this after a series of related links on websites.

    “I never took the fame too seriously, it was a great period in my life, but it doesn’t define me.”

    So I went down a bit on memory lane to think about my favorite guys.

  • Michelle’s Flawless Hair

    Look at that flawless hair on Michelle Williams. I adore it.


  • Jing Chang Does MJ

    Jing Chang just posted a photo of her in MJ attire.

    Though it’s hot from the knee up, I gotta say- shoes are kind of distracting.


  • Nicole Kidman: USAGI!

    I never thought I would see the day when Nicole Kidman would USAGI [1]. On a red carpet… posing for hundreds of red carpet photographers and for all of us to see. I LOVE IT.

  • From the Vault: Baby Bjork

    Bjork’s Facebook account has just shared a photo of teeny tiny baby Bjork, which is utterly adorable. Also goes to show us that Bjork has hardly changed at all.

  • Tokyo Kazoku Advanced Screening

    An advanced screening of Yoji Yamada’s Tokyo Kazoku [1] was held prepping for its imminent release on January 19th.

    Time flies by. It seems like yesterday when they finally announced they were shooting the movie.

    In the movie front… no signs of Vampire on DVD.


  • Clea Duvall, when did you ever…

    … get this hot?

    clea duvall argo

    I’ve always liked Clea Duvall. Duh, Buffy~~~ Popular~~~ Girl Interrupted, The Faculty, Can’t Hardly Wait, She’s All That. I’ve grown up watching Clea on screen. She’s a big part of my teen teen teenage years, so I was so happy to see her in Affleck’s latest film, Argo. And I said to myself, “wow~ look at that. She is so great in here.” When I ended up on IMDb that now has her profile pic from one of the Argo premiere pics, I said “OMG, she looks stunning!” I’ve never had this reaction to a photo of her before.

    Her face in this snapshot is quite flawless, and it’s impossible to get near-flawless on carpets with all the flashes going on.
