  • YAM011 Interview Teaser

    I guess I can show you a little, right?

    If you missed out that day, here’s what I said about the experience of interviewing Diane Warren.

    I’m behind on content. Too many events this week. >,<

  • Lee Hom Wang – All the Things You Never Knew MV

    This is the theme for Leehom Wang’s directorial debut Love in Disguise, premiering August Thursday 12th, right on time for the debut of his new album 18 Martial Arts… which I am already pre-ordering (plus, re-packaged Jing Chang’s album xD and other stuff from YesAsia… thankyouverymuch).

    I feel the MV spoils the film though, but that’s just me. The song’s good, though.

  • Hmm… I’m a little behind on stuff

    Again.

    I actually think I’m short of 2 reviews…

    I wanted to watch some of the Peruvian films playing at the Lima Film Fest, but 8pm is a horrible time. I hate going to the cinema at 8pm… it’s just so full of people. That was Octubre last night, instead I saw The Art of the Steal… and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Time well spent? I’m not sure about Wimpy Kid, but at least I avoided 8pm rush hour.

    Contracorriente (Undertow) plays tomorrow… at 8pm. I might try to catch that, but again. Why 8pm?

    Instead, I caught my 2nd viewing for Inception today. I was surprised to catch myself yawing a couple of times. I have made up my mind about it. It’s still a good movie, but this time I can officially tell you that I liked Joseph Gordon Levitt and Marion Cotillard scenes the best.

    I need to keep up with my music reviews.

    While formatting my aunt’s computer. That’s  a bonus. I hate Vista.

    I also need to format mine. The audio and video are playing… funny.

  • Jing Chang featuring Lollipop’s AoQuan – Loyalty

    5th single already? If you paid attention, I posted Jing Chang’s 4th single just a week ago.

    Otherwise known as 義氣 (Yi Qi), referring to the spirit of loyalty and self-sacrifice. Aiya They Didn’t is reporting Jing Chang will be releasing a re-packaged album by the end of the week (Aug. 13th), which will include:

    • 6 music videos [4 singles + Loyalty + 不再聯絡 (Bu Zai Lian Luo) – Lose Contact]
    • a Loyalty commemoration poster
    • a Mending card [is this Hao Le?]
    • and a birthday party invitation (????) xD

    Not sure why this is a 5th single, since it’s not included in the copy I’ve listened of The Opposite Me, but it’s kind of a nice rock/dance song. Kinda weird… but I could dig.

    I’m considering purchasing this re-packaged album. Seems like a good deal.

  • Stones of Power by Suren Manvelyan

    oooooh, smokey and fire-y.

    More here on Loud Dreams.

  • BoA – Hurricane Venus

    I swear to god, Asians release single after single. It’s been like 2 weeks? And BoA has already release this 2nd single… which is more dance, and I dig more than Game. I still think she looks potentially Hyori-ish with the blond hair, but I also think that this blond hair washes her out.

    Having said that. BoA dances in here. She can’t still match that rocking choreography on I Eat You Up, but this one is more my flare. This is her forte.

  • Greta Garbo Fake Criterion Collection

    Just started a Greta Garbo Fake Criterion Collection, from the TCM Garbo Signature set. The only one I’m choosing not to do is Grand Hotel… and of course, the TCM archives. So I’m only missing Queen Christina, Anna Karenina, Camille and Ninotchka. ;P

    My favorite fake cover… is between The Mysterious Lady and Flesh and the Devil.

    Fake Criterion Collection: Greta Garbo Collection - Flesh and the Devil

    In this one, I like the flame… which you know, I picked from the classic scene where they are lighting their cigarettes and the shot gets so awesome with the light. Of course, I couldn’t find a lighter, so decided to just use the flame. And in it, you can see a bit of that scene if you squint enough.

    Plus, Flesh and Devil sounds so sinful and all about kinky passion. LOL Fire, right? xD

    Fake Criterion Collection: Greta Garbo Collection - The Mysterious Lady

    And The Mysterious Lady plays the whole spy thing. I’m not even sure if the gun fits the movie, it just looked like it did… it wasn’t too “period-like” and it wasn’t a modern shotgun.

    It just didn’t feel right to use Greta Garbo and/or the movie stills. It seemed kind of… dull. That’s why I’m kind of disappointed on my version for Mata Hari. I couldn’t find a still of just the head piece, and I didn’t want to use Garbo’s face — as striking as it was — and I was about to use just the ring, but I guess it’s not really that striking.

    And of course, Anna Christie plays on the whole “Gimme a whiskey!” line. After all, Garbo Talks! LOL

    You can check the rest of the set here.

  • The Happy 101 Award

    Anomalous Material just posted a Meme about 10 Things that Bring You Joy.

    But before we start with mine… let me just say… “Forehead Titaes!” *giggles*

    Okay, moving on… what are some of the things that bring me joy?

    1. The sight of chocolate

    Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie

    In any shape or form. It doesn’t matter how pissy or how gloom I may be, I see chocolate and suddenly the world seems a better place. And forget about having a taste of the chocolate-y goodness.

  • This is my attempt at Classic Cannes Photos~

    Only without the Cannes part. xD

    The Lima Film Fest opened tonight, at a freezing night for reporters. I saw people shivering, but we had to wait outside for people to go in before us… and you know I don’t do “social photos” I HATE, LOATH the social section on magazine and newspapers. So I decided to take more photos of the sceneries xD

    And then camera people screamed at people “please, such-and-such a pose for this side too” so I felt obliged to take photos. And you know I hate using flash, even though it’s so dark… but I like blurry grainy photos anyway… so when I was going through the few photos I took, I thought… Hmm… wouldn’t they look nice in black and white?

    So this is me trying some “classic” look.

    I’m thinking of writing a 10 Tips for a Better Red Carpet event list. xD
    Remember guys, it’s PASO, PASO, POSE. Not PASO, PASO, PASO… OKAY I’M GONE.

    Check out the whole set here.

  • Eminem featuring Rihanna – Love the Way You Lie

    When did Eminem get such good DPs for his music videos?

    Anyway, new single from Eminem’s Recovery album. Man, what a recovery. I don’t even like Rihanna, but this song is pretty good… and I hate Megan Fox so so much, but this is her best role yet, because she doesn’t speak.

    Also Dominic Monaghan is looking kinda hot… always been, but it’s just him, being an abusive asshole on the video, and with the CGI fire – LOL, there’s something to the character. But then again, Eminem is also kinda hot there, so maybe my hot-radar is skew… I still wonder what he did to his face… but still some quiver. People kill the quiver when they speak usually… I never read Eminem interviews or articles. xD

    I think I might need to do a shame-f*ck list. LOL
