  • General Knowlegde: Is there tasteful porn?

    Note: I tried my best to get a capture where you don’t see much. LOL

    I’m not talking about erotic films, or nude art, or real meaningful sex of real couples who love each other caught on tape.

    I’m talking about glossy, using lights and filters to make it look more like a music video than actual porn. It also isn’t about a music video with non-explicit nakedness.

    In my quick google, I ended up on a Los Angeles Times article titled Feminine Porn Finds a Niche in Marketplace, which I guess… would answer my own question – in terms of plotting that is. But does it look as glossy as the above capture?

    I ran into this video titled Just the Two of Us — author or production company unknown — and man, if it wasn’t for some of those shots, the video looks like it could belong on Vimeo instead — it’s got nice lightning, a nice purple-ish tone, nice composition and framing… the song A Constant Reminder by Walter Rodriguez creates a certain mood. Who are Capri & Francesca? I have no idea, but this video seems to be very popular from the results. You can probably watch it with a quick Google.

    So now, tell me — is there high quality-looking porn?

  • The Harmony Evil Kiss

    I know this is wrong.

    SOOOOOO wrong, but all this Harry Potter talk has stirred my Shipper brain which had been laying dormant since… the better part of the Order of the Phoenix movie and the release of the last book.

    I suffered so much with the last book, it felt like being mocked. Especially in the Evil Kiss part, it felt like tainting all those hours reading those long and thought out essays. It was like all those who supported Harry/Hermione were… well, evil. LOL We were like the Horcrux, tainting a pure friendship with those dark bits in the Evil Kiss.

    I’ve made peace with that, in my own way.

  • Yu Aoi in India, GINZA Mag, and Minami he on WOWOW

    It seems like I haven’t blogged about Yu Aoi for a while. I certainly haven’t checked her website, so I’m a little out of the loop.

    The title on this post may be a little misleading. I don’t know whether Yu is in India, but the cover for GINZA Magazine for the July edition seems to indicate something similar… or maybe it will just be “India style”. Who knows~

    See the bottom title on the left?

    Aoi Yu, something about color no INDO he.

    While checking Yu’s website, I also found out that WOWOW will be showing a broadcast of Minami he~ it would be super awesome if someone took the time to record that and upload it so we could watch — even without subs. LOL

    Minami he – WOWOW
    July 8th, 11:30pm

    Yup, that’s it.

    what have you guys been up to lately?

  • Xiao Xiang Yu – Legend @ CCTV

    I was watching CCTV a couple of few days ago, when I saw the most awesome performance of the song Legend (传奇), which is sung by Faye Wong (I’m pretty sure she’s the original singer) in a beautiful way as well [1][2].

    But this performance by Henan Opera singer Xiao Xiangyu (小香玉) literally brought tears to my eyes. I wasn’t able to get her name the first time I watched the show, but they repeated it last night and I wrote it down.

    I managed to find a video with English subtitles. [CCTV looks better but it goes wrong after minute 15 or something – stuck on the freeze frame even when the audio continues]

    [iframe src=”https://open.iqiyi.com/developer/player_js/coopPlayerIndex.html?vid=17928efefd8ba611dc8cac707ba8e835&tvId=2062401009&accessToken=2.f22860a2479ad60d8da7697274de9346&appKey=3955c3425820435e86d0f4cdfe56f5e7&appId=1368&height=100%&width=100%” width=”100%” height=”480″]

    There’s even a bit of a funny part when they mention Jay Chou’s singing style. LOL They talk about the importance of Mulan in their national history, and discuss how Disney’s Mulan fell in love and there was a happy ending.

    If you really want to skip all the show [Legend is about 20min. into the show], you can watch Xiao Xiangyu’s performance of Legend, but it doesn’t have subs and the quality is not the best.

  • The Three Main Gays in my Life

    Here’s another confession for the LGBT Blogathon~

    —

    What was once changed through literature, shaping individuals through writing, is now — kinda sadly — shaped through what we watch from television (and movies) because nobody reads anymore.

    And so the medium of television becomes the ever important outlet for LGBT themes.

    Television is free — though some people beg to differ — it reaches millions and millions of people through different channels around the world in many languages. Unlike film — you know, the one you pay for to enter a theater or catch at your local film festival — a lot more people watch television, and through it, sometimes watch film — see, television is so powerful even if you don’t watch it.

    It is now, in our day and age (without counting the interwebs), that television plays a strong role into shaping the minds of the future generation of adults — that’s counting me, by the way… I’m not that old — who will hopefully grow into people who just won’t care whether you’re gay or straight or bi or transsexual. A generation that will ask about the need to add a “LGBT” genre tag when… it’s all normal!

    Pride Bunting

    This is my case. I came to know about LGBT issues because of television, which later prompted me to search online and then my world exploded with LGBT entertainment.

  • LGBT Blogathon is ON!

    Still deciding a few more films and tv shows I should review and talk about.

    I don’t think I have enough time~

    In the meantime, follow all the posts that will be added during the week.

  • A-Mei Does Talk Asia

    I haven’t watched CNN… for at least a month, since I’ve been focusing my news-watching on local news for politics, so I didn’t know A-Mei was going to be on Talk Asia… or I would have been flipping before.

    I totally despise Anjali Rao, though.

    Her face, her voice, the way she speaks irks me so much, it makes me want to punch her sometimes. Sorry, I had to get that off my chest. LOL It’s one of those things when the aura of people rub you the wrong way.

    Anyway!

    A-Mei on Talk Asia~~~

  • The L Word: Shane + Carmen – Fix You

    Hmm… not really in the mood of talking (or ranting) now.

    I don’t need to say that nothing on The L Word is really “safe for work” right? It’s not like you see much in here, but just to be safe, knowing you won’t get caught watching something… even if just a fanvid, that may look to some people like something else~

    I re-watched sporadically the 3 first seasons of the show, and I just got sort of nostalgic about Shane and Carmen. You know I like Shane a lot, I liked Shane with Molly a lot too because of how fluffy their development was. It was different for the character, they had somewhere to go… but they never made it there. Meh, oh well~

    So re-watching Shane and Carmen, I had almost forgotten how intense they were. Partly in a good way, but as the end of the third season came upon… it became more and more destructive.

    You know that bit when Carmen dreams that Shane is giving Cherie Jaffe their tattoo, and then Carmen reveals she also cheated on her after Shane slept with Cherie? That bit when Shane’s all mad but nonchalant, looks at her and asks her whether she feels better now that they’re even. It was awful in a really good way.

    So I guess Coldplay is their perfect fit. LOL

  • Yu is Depressed on Vampire

    Yesterday was a good day to be a Yu-chan fan.

    *cough* subs for Raiou are out.

    The YAM Magazine Weibo account was flooded of Hana & Alice talk – I still don’t know why, but I can’t complain.

    And Acerk messaged me with news of two stills from Shunji Iwai’s Vampire featuring Yu.

    I was really excited.
