  • Early YAM006!

    So I wanted to make some time to work on those subtitles I was supposed to work on, and today is October 8th! So it’s perfect to release YAMM006, even if we are a little ahead.

  • China’s 60 Years

    It was almost like the Olympics… only with tanks and soldiers xD
    well, there were also many performers.
    I also took my Granpa’s photograph, and put it in front of the TV.

  • If it were the 2002 Experiment Awards~

    Continuing with the warm-up!
    Woohoo!! Movie count is up to 41!!
    Only 7 more to go~~~ xD

    First, some observations. I noticed that I’ve only listed about 70 films (counting with some really REALLY bad ones there), and I had to cut to half of those… the results are kind of very American. You agree?

  • I just did a crazy thing…

    xD

    I just bought the whole McDull collection over at YesAsia xD, complete with a pre-order for the latest McDull film – Kung Fu Kindergarten… or McDull Ding Ding Dong <- buahahaha.

    my mom will approve of that, though. She loved McDull.

    And because YesAsia was offering extra special offers, I bought (finally) Battle Royale and Kim Ki Duk’s Breath, I just wished they had marked 3-Iron as well xD hahaha

    crap, and then I wonder why I’m always pissed ass broke, eh?

    And still, wanna buy more stuff xD – Wanna complete my Shunji Iwai stuff with Swallowtail Butterfly, which you should totally watch, because it’s oh so awesome.

    3 a.m. online shopping it’s oh so dangerous~~~

  • To Watch Until They’re 30 – Sandrine Pinna

    I was struggling on who to pick as my #10 Actress, but I finally saw Miao Miao, so I thought to give the spot to Sandrine Pinna (or Chang Yung Yung). It’s an interesting choice for me because I’ve only ever seen her on this one film, but I’ll trust my gut instinct on this one… after all, I couldn’t really resist her charm on the first 10min of the film.

    Sandrine Pinna - Chang Yung Yung

    *EDIT* I had to change the other image because
    it turned out NOT being Pinna. LOL Forgive.

  • 20 Actors Between 20-25 to Watch until They’re 30

    This week I was thinking about making a compilation of 20 actors (women and men) between the ages of 20-25 to keep track until they’re 30. I tried writing the post today, but it turns out I don’t have many names. Ha! First, some of the people I was considering adding to the list are 26, or not even 20… or are already in their 30s, which is great for them since I thought they were in their 20s… not so good for my list.

    At the moment though, I have 8 actresses already picked out. However, I’m missing 2 more actresses. And I’m missing all of the guys (10). HAHAHAHA. So I need help. Leave a comment with some names of young actors/actresses.

    Just some things to keep in mind…

    • must be between 20-25, can also be turning 20 this year.
    • must have more than one or two films on her/his CV.
    • too much TV and only 1 film doesn’t count.
    • award recognition is nice, but not mandatory.

    As I add the people in single posts, I’ll be adding their names here and linking. :)
