  • The Green Hornet Trailer

    Oh, Jay~
    Why did you have to open your mouth and talk. LOL

    You look cool doing your kicking, but all your dialog didn’t do it for me. Having said that… I do find Seth Rogen slimness, kind of unsettling because during the first frames, there was some quiver… then he spoke and it was gone. Phew.

    But this is Michel Gondry, right? So I’m still watching it.

    BTW, I hate the way they say “KAY-TOH” UGH. Never heard the English audio for The Green Hornet, so I actually grew up with how normal people say Kato. xD

  • This is a lazy poll plugin post

    I read this article on Yahoo titled 5 Movies a Girl Must Watch, and blah.

    And you know what I think about Chick Flicks. Anyway, the author of that Yahoo post says this:

    Here is my list of romantic (not necessarily comedies) movies a girl must watch. And if you are a guy, I guarantee you WILL score brownie points if you plan an evening with your wife/girlfriend and one of these movie DVDs.

    What do you think? Are these Romantic Comedies? Which one is your favorite Romantic film?

  • Redline Teaser

    It’s super short, but better cut than the 5min clip.

    and it’s got the Yu Aoi credit!!! Yay!

    Okay, now… really. Yu Aoi news overload much??

  • The Ten 20 to Watch Between 25-30 that Didn’t Make it

    We are only one spot away from completing our lists of the 20 to Watch Between 25-30, so I thought it was time to show you some of the names that didn’t make it. Just like in my first list of people that didn’t make it, I seem to have an overload of actresses, and never enough guys.

    In no particular order~~~

  • Toy Story 3 Makes for a Perfect Ending

    Whatever your thoughts are about Toy Story, and Toy Story 2, if you got the chance to grow up and grow old with the Toy Story franchise, you’re going to feel like Toy Story 3 will be pulling your heart strings. I wasn’t emotionally attached to the franchise, and I still felt the nostalgic ending, quite reminiscent of the ending in the Winnie the Pooh books. That of having to grow up, and let go.

  • Early YAM 010!

    MY85 made me realize that tomorrow is the 13th, so I decided to release this today.

    Thanks to Julz, who’s always a diligent writer.
    and MY85… and well, Maca who keeps tracks of her films.

    I just want you to head over here.

  • Yu Aoi for Takeshi Koike Animated Film Redline

    Alongside Kimura Takuya [SMAP] (37), and Tadanobu Asano (36).

    Takeshi Koike was an animator on the 1995 animated film Memories, was involved in The Animatrix short Program, as well as directing one of my favorite Animatrix shorts… World Record, and worked as the lead animator on the film Taste of Tea (Cha no Aji).

    Movie and CM director Ishii Katsuhito created the original story and explained why he picked those three actors in particular. “For this movie I wanted to get the actors I personally respect the most,” he said.

    …

    Aoi has been one of his favorite actress for many years as well. You could say that he is really looking forward to have his favorite actors lending their voices to the characters he created himself.

  • June 2010 Yu Aoi Short Takes

    Sorry for the lack of comment activity yesterday, there was a weird mixed up with me, my server, and my ISP… which was fixed NOT by Telefonica, but my server providers~~~ They’re the best. You should all work with them.

    Anyway, a lot of stuff… besides the World Cup,
    whose Opening ceremony I missed, because I couldn’t wake up for them…

    Toy Story 3 screening in the morning! So I’m making this short~

    First~ as you may (or not) have noticed, I have added a Yu Aoi Event Calendar to the right, below the Ads. That’s to help us all to keep track of what’s going on and when. As you can see, Flowers opened today.

  • Disney’s Tangled Trailer

    I don’t know if you had heard about Disney’s Rapunzel that suddenly got changed to Tangled. Anyway, the trailer for Tangled, the animated Disney film formerly known as Rapunzel, just hit the net.

    And I’m loving it.

    Especially because it’s set to Pink’s Trouble music.
    I love that album, and that song rocks.

    and the trailer is so SO funny.

    Look! It’s the girl from Center Stage!

    Hmm… seems like these films take FOREVER to be released.
