  • Remembering the 90’s: Jordan Knight – Give it to You

    Oh man, I was so lucky my parents didn’t speak any English.

    I mean… come on!
    “Anyone can make you sweat, but I can keep you wet”

    that’s not even an undertone.

    I truly was an innocent child. O=D

    I was all over the choreography. xD

  • Shunji Iwai and Yu Aoi Back Together on Vampire Flick?

    I just got a sudden adrenaline rush.

    Not only Shunji Iwai and Yu Aoi together…

    ON A VAMPIRE FLICK… in an English-language project.

    SHOT IN VANCOUVER?

    I’ll let Kevin from Nippon Cinema explain as I SPAZZ some more.

    After spending the past few years screenwriting and producing, filmmaker Shunji Iwai (All About Lily Chou-Chou, Hana and Alice) is returning to the director’s chair for a yet-untitled English-language vampire drama to begin shooting in Vancouver this May. Currently, the only plot info available is that the story will involve a seemingly average young man who secretly craves blood and seeks out suicidal women on the internet. However, the women need to fall in love with him before he’s able to get the full pleasure of sucking the life out of them (yep, sounds like internet dating all right). Actresses Amanda Plummer and Yu Aoi are signed on as cast members.

    FYI, Amanda Plummer played opposite Sarah Polley on Isabel Coixet’s My Life Without Me.

    I am conflicted, Vancouver is Lainey’s territory… should we pimp Yu to Lainey and let her fall in love with her, so she posts about Yu papz while in town? LOL, though Yu in Vancouver is like… another Japanese girl. I probably would have had a heart attack if I had still been living in Vancouver.

    Okay, this means I really REALLY need to finish my If Only.

    Please, sweet baby geezus let this film be my dream project. LOL

  • How to Train your Dragon is Still a Thrill~

    After so many years of watching animated films, it feels like Dreamworks has found their winning formula of cheap thrills and decent box office numbers, and they’re sticking with it. Time and time again, they put out a piece with similar jokes, running gags, and uninspiring character design with little heart.

  • If Only… Tokyo Trash Baby

    This is Acerk’s last (and best) pick for Yu Aoi wishful thinking films. And I really did my best to stretch these picks as much as I could just to see if other fans would contribute their own.

    Gorgeous visuals.

  • Gorillaz – Stylo

    I meant to post this sooner, but the version going round was the one on YouTube, which got me a region restriction [SUCKERS!]. Anyway, here’s the new material from Gorillaz which features none other than Bruce Willis.

    I’ve never been a huge Gorillaz fan, but I gotta admit that they’re pretty visual. I don’t see this as more than a regular good looking video though.
