  • Last Friends – Rasuto Furenzu – ラスト フレンズ

    I have been watching one of the latest Japanese Dramas (JDrama), Last Friends… or RASUTO FURENZU as its read Katakana name. It is the first Asian drama I have seen (Chinese, Korean… or any other) – and despite the fact that I have seen my fair amount of Asian films, or listened to music in an Asiatic language. Last Friends is my first EVER Asian Soap… or as I call it, my AsiaNovela.

    Last Thursday, we saw the fifth episode… so I have been roughly watching this weekly for the past month, and I can’t wait for more! (more…)

  • My Favorite Actor is… WHO?

    All the way back in September, I made a small list of some of my favorite actresses that people didn’t have idea who they were. But I don’t seem to have the same knack for spotting unknown names for male actors… funny, eh? I just realized this when making this list. Since most of the names are probably known, will post them from the ones I think are less known to the most known. And notice? No TV stars that I can recall~ WEIRD.

    *EDIT*
    How could I forget him??? Just added him on the first spot of actors that you probably don’t know.

  • Tom Scavo – Doug Savant – LUV!

    Doug SavantEver since I began watching Desperate Housewives, I always LOVED Tom Scavo. He was the best of the husbands on the show, and I dreaded the idea that Tom might have been having an affair… he wasn’t having one, after all. But due to his silliness… he got himself a new daughter. Seriously, is Tom Scavo a sperminator?? LOL’

    Anyway, I think Doug Savant is the hotness. Look at him in this photo that I stole from E! Online, ha! – It’s something I had to do, there aren’t many photos of him around…

    Now, if you take a look at his CV, you’ll noticed he’s been in many projects! A few days ago, they were showing Godzilla, and I noticed him! He’s been a soldier/policeman/enforcer of the law many-a-time! As he was a captain in Firefly.

    Who can forget Tom and Lynette’s fooling around, and Tom’s line of “Let’s risk it!” and Lynette punching him for even suggesting, LOL’. And instant LUV when he was wearing the leopard underwear. x’D

  • Best bits of the SAG winners’ speeches

    There were some good bits in some of the speeches for the SAG! Here are some of my faves~

    JAVIER BARDEM:

    My grandparents were actors in a time when actors were not allowed to be buried on sacred land, because they were homosexuals and prostitutes. So, it’s been a long way to come here, and that’s something we the actors should apply to ourselves.

    TINA FEY:

    If you’ve seen me on the show with Alec Baldwin, then you know it’s sort of like watching Fred Astaire dance with a hat rack. And after a while, you’re like, “Oh, that hat rack is pretty good, too.”

    CHARLES DURNING:

    Hello, Mic.

    DANIEL DAY-LEWIS:

    Heath Ledger gave it to me. [applause] In “Monster’s Ball,” that character that he created, it seemed to be almost like an unformed being, retreating from themselves, retreating from his father, from his life, even retreating from us, and yet we wanted to follow him, and yet we’re scared to follow him almost. It was unique. And then, of course, in “Brokeback Mountain,” he was unique, he was perfect. [applause] And that scene in the trailer at the end of the film is as moving as anything that I think I’ve ever seen. And I’d like to dedicate this to Heath Ledger. So, thank you very much. Thank you so much.

    JULIE CHRISTIE:

    And if I’ve forgotten anybody, well, it’s just that I’m still in character.

  • We Love Sexy Nerds

    ‘Nuff Said.

    I’ve heart Christopher Gorham since I saw him on Popular. I’ve always melted while seeing him on screen, ha! and I’m so glad he’s doing so good as Henry on Ugly Betty.

    But I saw him first!! Ha~ xD

    We can all be jealous of Anel Lopez-Gorham. She’s so lucky, eh?

    Here are some pics I’ve found.

    *EDIT*
    Images were offline so decided to find them again, and post. Hope you enjoy!

  • Jason Bourne Collection Already Out of Stock!!

    I just can’t believe Amazon doesn’t have any more of The Jason Bourne Collection, especially since they didn’t have it listed when Ultimatum appeared for pre-order~~~ damn u, amazon! I could’ve pre-ordered, duh!
    I. DONT. BELIEVE!

    **EDIT**
    Late edit, but I ended up buying from Amazon.ca, and Amazon.com re-stocked.

  • Shirley Holmes

    For those of you who don’t know, The Adventures of Shirley Holmes was a show for kids that dealt with Shirley, the great-niece of famous detective, Sherlock Holmes. She was a bright and curious young girl with some emotional and social issues, that are triggered by the mysterious disappearance of her mother, Dr. Joanna Holmes, in Rwanda.

    We follow Shirley, three or four years into her mom’s disappearance, when she finally meets Bo Sawchuk, a bad-boy-turned-friend and Watson-like companion to Shirley. Together they solve mysteries dealing with insurance fraud, kidnappings, alien abductions, illegal immigrants, conspiracies, and deception – just to name a few… all ending in young Shirley learning something about herself, and other people.
