The New Itunes

2008-09-17T17:01:00.002-07:00

Does everyone else finish downloading the new itunes?? That shit is sick! All of the new features are awesome but my favorite is the genious addition. That might be one of the coolest things I think I've seen so far this year. So you pick any song from your library and it makes a playlist consisting of either 25, 50, 75, or 100 songs from your own library that would go great with that song AND there's a sidebar that recommends songs from that artist and artists similar to that artist as well, with the itunes store on that sidebar as well. I'm in love..I've already bought some tracks from Lily Allen I didn't have and I'm satisfied.

Nostalgia

2008-09-17T17:01:00.000-07:00

I've been nostalgic lately, and I was thinking about the movie My Girl the other day, well My Girl 2 more specifically, and I couldn't get that Elton John song that comes out in the movie, out of my head ; Bennie and the Jets. So I downloaded it, I'm pretty sure everyone's heard it and it's a classic, I've provided the link below for downloading.

The new Apple Ipods were revealed today and I was crossing my fingers for the new ipod touches' to have a built in speaker, and my wish came true; they will not only have a speaker, they upgraded all of the earphones, which will now have microphone, it will have a "shake to shuffle" feature,, and yeah, you can actually shake it! I sound like such a nard, yes nard, but I can't wait get get my hands on the 32g i pod touch. Here's more info..

Not Happening

2008-09-05T10:42:00.001-07:00

So there was going to be an Arrested Development film in the works, there was even an IMDB page for it:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0901469/, but that dream was shattered for dozens of AD fans when during an interview this week for the craptastic movie Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist, Michael Cera announced there was no plans for the movie and that he hadn't been approached; AND that he doesn't think it's a good idea to adapt the show into a film since all three seasons of the are on dvd, sounds like an asshole to me.

You Better Thank Me

2008-09-03T16:15:00.000-07:00

On a random note, the trailer for the new Lindsay Lohan movie "Labor Pains (in my ass)" came out today, but I woudln't do that to you guys.

It's Trailer Madness

2008-09-03T16:05:00.000-07:00

Another trailer yes, but this one is exceptional; it's the trailer for the new Gus Van Sant film about Harvey Milk, the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in America. It stars Sean Penn, James Franco, Emile Herche, Diego Luna, and Josh Brolin. I will defintily be checking this one out, comes out November 26.

It's Here!!!!

2008-09-03T13:44:00.000-07:00

The trailer for Zack and Miri Make A Porno, starring Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks, directed by Kevin Smith; doesn't look half bad.

Spaghetti Western Meets Asian Cinema

2008-09-03T13:08:00.000-07:00

This is Takeshi Miikes' next film, Sukiyaki Western Django. Normally I would have been excited for his newest film but I think an asian western is a weird combo AND none other that Quentin Tarantino makes an annoying cameo in the movie, he never was the best actor; watch for yourself...

If You've Been Under A Cave....

2008-09-02T18:43:00.000-07:00

If you have any sense of humor, you will most likely enjoy/love this video, I literally cried while watching, I was laughing my ass off so hard, some people think it's lame and/or immature but for most people under 25, it's pretty fucking hilarious, so please enjoy Sister Being Busted By Brother.

Unboxing The Office Season 4

2008-09-02T14:25:00.000-07:00

What To Do....

2008-09-01T19:07:00.000-07:00

So Burn After Reading, the Coen brothers' first film since No Country For Old Men, and Righteous Kill come out on the same week of September 12. I want to see both films but I'm more inclined to see BAR than Righteous Kill, because RT comes off as a very gimmicky Colin Farrell-ish type of movie, trying to cash in on the fact that both Robert De Niro and Al Pacino are in this film together; both favorite actos of mine but idk, somethings' off....

True Life: I Live Another Life on the Web

2008-09-01T18:56:00.000-07:00

Hopefully you know what True Life is, the show on MTV thats been running for years, ranging from all funny topics to downright sad. Well, I was watching this one, about people who have a whole different life on the internet, and this girl stood out to me. She was a musican who had stagefright so she has a second life in which her character was a famous rock star and looked almost identical to her. When she showed the cameras her second life avatar, she said "I can do the same vacant expression as my avatar." (see above) I thought that was sooooo funny, if you've never watched true life, or haven't seen this one, here's the link.......

And I'm Feeling Good

2008-09-01T17:28:00.000-07:00

So I bought Guinea Pig Series' double feature of Devils Experiment and Android Of Notre Dame for 13 bucks, the "banned" japanese films from other there; I was down on my hands and knees when I was going through the bins at Amoeba when I found this sick little gem so I bought it along with Macabre, this sick, little shady italian film, filmed in New Orleans (?), I've heard its pretty stupid and sick and lame but I love that. Both cost me about 25 bucks, which is not bad, not bad at all.

The King Of The VMA's

2008-08-25T22:25:00.001-07:00

Mr. Russell Brand did another funny promo for the VMA's with Britney Spears and this one is my absolute favorite, BAM!

Concerts That I Must Attend

2008-08-23T16:47:00.000-07:00

There are just some bands and performers that I have to see in the next few years now that I'm 18 and I have a little more independence. These are the people/bands I have to see live, someday:

-Rage Against The Machine (they better not break up again by the time I get to see them)
-Kanye West
-Mark Ronson
-Radiohead
-John Mayer
-Muse
-Madonna (if she's still alive :D)
-Jason Mraz
-Lily Allen

I would have included Amy Winehouse on the list, but if i wanted to see a shitty performance, I'd just look at them on youtube, and the chances of her coming to L.A. to perform are slim to none.

Madonna's Bitch

2008-08-21T23:09:00.000-07:00

So Guy Ritchie's new film RocknRolla comes out October 3, and I can't wait, he did another favorite of mine, Snatch, with the beautiful Brad Pitt. Apparently Jason Statham was supposed to have Gerard Butler's role but dropped out over scheduling conflicts; now I'm no fan of Jason Statham, he's a b-list actor that makes bad b-list movie, Crank, Transporter 3 anyone? But since he's out of the picture, it's fine now, AND Thandie Newton's in the film, I love me some Thandie Newton. RocknRolla, I'll be waiting.

SICK

2008-08-21T22:53:00.000-07:00

Another movie post, I apologize. But its WATCHMEN, don't you understand???? The movie looks sick, no doubt about that, but will the movie be good? Well, I've read the comments from the avid graphic novels' fans and they seem to think that the movie will be great; the director Zack Snyder, successfully turned 300 into a movie so I'm pretty sure this will be a hit too ( i just jinxed it, didn't I?).

I heard the Ting Tings a while ago, but I didn't know it was them until my sisterrrrr lent me their cd and I heard their song again and I instantly recognized them and the song. I posted the video for their awesome song "Great Dj".

The Language of Women

2008-08-21T22:04:00.000-07:00

So, as we all know, women are complicated creatures, I'll be the first the admit it. We make things difficult on purpose sometimes (SOMETIMES) because guys are completley oblivious as to why we're mad at them when they should know. Anyways, my friend emailed me this list of words and things us women do, and I'll admit, I've done everything on this list; Men, you are being given an inside perspective on a woman's mind, embrace it, take advantge of it:

9 WORDS WOMEN USE
(1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

(3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

(5) Loud Sigh : This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)

(6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says "Thanks a lot" - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say "you're welcome" ... that will bring on a "whatever").

(8) Whatever: Is a women's way of saying FUCK YOU!

(9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "What's wrong?" For the woman's response refer to # 3

My Mission For Next Year; Comic-Con

2008-08-21T21:58:00.000-07:00

I missed Comic-Con this year because there was no way of me getting there, but it is my mission to be there next year. I know it's a geek convention, over-the-top, ridiculous but I love that. Everyone goes, I would have given anything to meet Kevin Smith, Seth Rogen, J.J. Abrahms and the cast of The Office but there's always the years to come.

Beat This And You Win Something

2008-08-21T21:24:00.000-07:00

Ok, so you don't get anything, just a little ego boost. I've been playing this game for a while and I can't seem to get past level 14 or 15, I don't exactly remember since everytime I lose, i just abruptly close the window. Point of the game is to get that little white ball to swing to that green ball while getting the coins, it's a lot harder that it sounds*, so good luck, link to the game below.

This Is Gonna Be Epic

2008-08-21T21:16:00.000-07:00

Star Trek, the J.J. Abrams revamped version is set to hit theaters in May of next year and we got a teaser trailer of the movie when Cloverfield came out. Simon Pegg is infinitely my hero, from Shaun of the Dead, to Hot Fuzz, to Run, Fat Boy, Run, to Star Trek, that guy from Heroes comes out too but who gives a shit, it's all about Pegg.

DAMN!!!!!!!!

2008-08-21T21:03:00.000-07:00

So hopefully many of you saw this tragic event unfold at the Beijing Olympics, ok, it was just fucking sick and sad. Look at that! His elbow is inside out, I feel so bad for this guy, he looks like he starts to convulse. Poor guy, video of the event below.

The Guinea Pig Series

2008-08-14T19:24:00.000-07:00

It's not real, so look at the pic all you want. The Guinea Pig Series is something I read about a couple of years ago but I recently got reminded of it again. The second film in the series, Flower of Flesh and Blood caught my attention the most. It depicts a man drugging the girl above, and cutting her up; to me, it doesn't look real and it isn't but I can see how some people can believe that it is. Apparently Charlie Sheen saw a few minutes of this movie back in the 90's and believed it was real, (pussy), and he contacted the FBI. First of all, why in the hell was Charlie Sheen watching this snuff wannabe, and where did he get it, its not like you walk into K-Mart and purchase it on the spot. So....I really don't know what my point is, I'm distracted from the bad special effects..

They Hate Weed

2008-08-14T19:03:00.000-07:00

This ridiculous 1930's exploitation film on weed is so ridiculous and untrue, its quite funny. In the movie, they "warn" you about the effects of "marihuana", (i spelled it the way they did), the horrible "harm" it does to you and your loved ones. In the film, it ends with murder and a guy getting thrown in a mental hospital, ALL OF BECAUSE OF MARIHUANA, this movie is a must see just for laughs. The film ends as a teacher warns parents to warn their children about weed, very ridiculous.

Japanese Horror

2008-08-14T18:57:00.000-07:00

Ok, so this movie isn't really horror, or maybe it is, depending on how you look at it. The movie is Ichi the Killer; director Takashi Miike, who also directed another favorite of mine, Audition. The scene above is one of the most elaborate, ridiculous torture scenes ever, the movie itself doesn't make much sense, but most japanese films don't, I suppose that's the way they intend their films to be; for you to make up your own explanations on why there is a puddle of cum in the opening credits. The movie is about a guy who needs answers, and the movie is very violent but if you enjoy crazy shit like this like me, then go watch Ichi the Killer.

2008-08-05T21:02:00.000-07:00

Seth Rogen was a guest host on SNL last year but they reran the episode recently so I proceeded to record his most hilarious skit.

*Kristin Wiig is my hero.

A Hills Fan!

2008-07-31T21:08:00.000-07:00

A man that can admit that he is a Hills fan, is more that fine in my book. To non-Hills fans, The Hills is a "reality show" on MTV which follows Lauren, Audrina, Heidi and Spencer. It is a guilty pleasure because no one likes to admit that they watch The Hills, most of the show appears to be fake but who cares, the show gets about 4 million viewers each week so obviously people don't mind. But back to Seth Rogen, he recently admitted he is a Hills fans in the current issue of GQ and in his exact words he "watches the shit out of that show" and he said he was even star struck when he ran into the cast at this years MTV Movie Awards, he says that Jonah Hill went to high school with Spencer from The Hills and Spencer went up to them backstage to tell them that he was a fan of their work, which left Seth flabbergasted, now I'm using Seth Rogen's EXACT words, don't think I'm making this shit up, I couldn't believe it myself.

Elsa Says Watch This Movie

2008-07-31T19:29:00.000-07:00

Lila Says is a 2004 french film that I fell I fell in love with, much like how the main character falls in love with Lila. Chimo, is a 19 year old self proclaimed loser living in an Arab ghetto with his mother in post 9/11 France; he turns down an opportunity to study free of charge at a writing school for teenagers. Lila is a beautiful blonde 16 year old that lives in the same town. They have an unspoken love that reminds me of Jim and Pam, from The Office. There is so much more story but I don't want to spoil it. It really is a simple love story with a raw and emotional ending, so go rent or buy Lila Says.

Don't Play Fast Games and Square Dance While On Your Period

2008-07-31T19:04:00.000-07:00

I watched this education video from the 1950's which was called Molly Grows Up; very interesting to see how they viewed a "menstruation" in the 50's. So I thought their views on the subject of what not to do while "mentruating" was so funny. In the film they say, you can shower, wash your hair, swim, dance, and picnic...um...ok? And they say that you cannot skate, ride horseback. play fast games or square dance...what??! SQUARE DANCE? Didn't they just say that you couldn't dance while on your rag? What is so different about square dancing than regular dancing? Is it more violent or pathetic? Answer: Both.

The Hot Wings Cafe, the best place to get your wings in L.A. My sister used to take me alot, and I forever loved the wings from here. Theres one on La Brea and Melrose, and one in glendale but i recommend the one on Melrose, its a little bigger, but gets packed. Be sure to get the large with ranch, its soo good, you'll love it.

Mmmmm..mmmm...mmm. Raging Bull. I just want to say, how great is this movie? Robert De Niro IS Jack Lamotta, a boxer in the bronx, the movie is soooo beautifully done by Martin Scorsese. Its done in black and white, has slow motion shots, dark and very light colors. Such a good story, sooo beautiful. Check out Raging Bull.

Completely Gratuitous

2008-07-24T15:39:00.000-07:00

Since I've noticed that a few more people are coming to check out my blog, I thought I'd ask for some help. Those shoes above are the Sam Edelman Carmen Flats, I really want these but they sold them only at Urban Outfitters and now they don't sell them there anymore. If someone could please, please find these online, I would love you forever.

Le Plus Impressionnant

2008-07-21T20:20:00.000-07:00

Les Diaboliques is a french suspense film, and I say suspense because never has a movie literally made my heart rate slow down to the point of it actually stopping. I'm not going to give away the plot, i'm not going to tell you what the movie is about because you need to check it out for yourself. If the last 5 minutes of the movie doesn't slow your cardiac rate down, then nothing will.

Oh you MXC, you will always have my heart. MXC, which stands for most extreme challenge, is a japanese game show dubbed highlariously in english. They have a penchant for their input of random exclamtions (My Parents Are Poor!) during painful eliminations. Its a must see, it airs on Spike TV.

Speaking of Bradly Pitt

2008-07-20T18:28:00.000-07:00

So, reportedly, Quentin Tarantino met with Brad Pitt earlier this week to discuss him possibly starring in QT's next film, Inglorious Bastards. Then, it was said that QT was going to meet Leonardo DiCaprio to discuss him starring in another lead role. I'M SO FREAKIN' EXCITED.

Praise After Watching

2008-07-20T18:09:00.000-07:00

Another one to look foward to. Burn After Reading is the first movie for the Coen Brothers since No Country For Old Men. It looks like they went running the opposite way from the look of NCFOM, you know, the mystirious, western-ish look that had going, but that's fine. What I am also more then ok with is, is the casting of Brad Pitt and George Clooney in this film. Definitely gonna check this out, comes out September 12.

On Dark Knight Overload

2008-07-20T17:57:00.000-07:00

Since everyone is hyped up on The Dark Knight right now, I won't be posting anything on the movie yet, in case some of you haven't seen the movie yet. So, in relation to The Dark Knight, I thought I would talk about a couple of Christian Bale's other great movies; such as American Psycho and The Machinist. Christian Bale sort of has this cult following so his fans know about American Psycho, one of those films that STILL gives me the chills, it sort of reminds me of A Clockwork Orange. Now The Machinist is another great movie of his, he lost 60 pounds for this movie and a few months later, had to gain more than all of his weight back for Batman Begins. That sounds pretty fucking insane to me, but that's also true dedication, if ya ask me. If he hadn't been able to gain the weight back for Batman, he woulnd't have secured the role, which means some B-list actor would have gotten the part, ahem, Eric Bana, anyone? So check out American Psycho and The Machinist.

"Oh Please, Didn't Roman Polanski Just Win An Oscar?"

2008-07-20T17:12:00.001-07:00

Indeed he did, for The Pianist. This small HBO documentary called "Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired" is about infamous director Roman Polanski ,which I saw in its premiere weekend. I already knew some stuff about Roman Polanski; I knew he directed Chinatown, Rosemary's Baby (my fav) and The Pianist (great movie), that his wife was killed by Charles Manson "family" and that he was involved in some rape scandal, but this documentary went into all of this. What I found most interesting about this semingly sane man, is that he did in fact had sex with a 13 year old girl, whom he had invited into his home to photograph her, he admitted it himself and he knew he would get into a trouble when conticted, so he fled the country in the middle of his trial, and he hasn't set foot in the U.S. then, which was in 1978. He has directed many more movies since, such as The Pianist, and Oliver Twist, and as I already metnioned, won the Oscar for best director. Check out this aweome documentary.

2008-07-19T19:35:00.000-07:00

Sweet and Tender

2008-07-17T22:06:00.000-07:00

So I enjoy listening to this little french cover band called Nouvelle Vague, which in french means, new wave. They cover songs you wouldn't expect to be covered, like the Dead Kennedys, and Buzzcocks, but it works. There's only one of their covers that I did NOT enjoy, their Come On Eileen cover, which had a woman with a very low and dry voice singing it; which is ironic since all their other covers are done by women with sweet and calm voices, so it's sweet to listen to.

This Chick Has Balls, Like Literally

2008-07-17T21:24:00.000-07:00

Well, I recently send upon this chick named Sada Abe, who was an entertainer, geisha and prostitute, but she isn't famous for that, she's INFAMOUS for cutting off her lover's dick and balls. She reminded me of that other woman, Lorena Bobbitt, that chopped off her husband's dick ten years ago. What I thought was so strange about this story was that it happened in 1930's Japan, I didn't think they were so freaky back then, I know it's where hentai and the guinea pig series came from, but I thought things were more idyllic back then, guess not.

Another Thing We Don't Have in L.A.

2008-07-17T20:47:00.000-07:00

In Japan, they have the coolest SWAT team, look at them! That is so awesome, I would much rather have our SWAT team riding these cool futuristic looking scooters, than have like Paris Hilton riding one of these around on a photoshoot or something. Japan is so cool, minus the uh "pink" films they have, and the uh, skyrocketing depression rate...hmmm...nevermind.

I remember watching Chappelle's show back when I was in middle school, his skit about the internet, his skit "When Keepin' It Real Goes Wrong", *sigh*, yup, and of course his infamous Lil' John, Rick James, and Prince impersonations. Please enjoy...

You Knew It Was Coming*

Whenever you've caught yourseelf in a dilema, and someone says something that sorta sounds like something sexual, you have to say THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID. You can use it in almost everyday life, ex: Hey! Is your mom coming? That's what she said, Wow, Steve, that looks really hard, That's what she said, I don't think I can keep this up any longer Ann, That's what she said. Use it, embrace it.

*that's what she said

iView Concept

Just a concept, but we might see iView hit the market late next year.

Now I Know You've Never Seen this One

2008-07-16T21:51:00.000-07:00

So I saw this movie called Bobby a couple of years ago, it's about the Robert Kenndey assasination, but it focuses on the lives of other people leading up to the assasination. It was really interesting, most of the stories in the movie are fictional, but some aren't. Literally every actor you've ever heard of comes out in this movie, I'll name a few: Laurence Fishbourne, Nick Cannon, Heather Graham, Anthony Hopkins, Helen Hunt, Joshua Jackson, Demi Moore, Ashton Kutcher, Shia LaBeouf, Lindsay Lohan, Elijah Wood, Freddy Rodriguez, Martin Sheen, Christian Slater, Sharon Stone, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Now, when I saw Nick Cannon and Lindsay Lohan, I didnt think they could pull off their dramatic roles, but they did, and they did a really good job, especially Nick Cannon. So this is an ensemble cast, the movie doesn't rely on one actor, it relies on all the actors to carry the story, and its done beautifully. I recommend this movie to anyone that is interested in historical events, such as the Bobby Kennedy's assasination.

Now this is BULLSHIT

2008-07-16T21:25:00.000-07:00

Now I was a little pissed when I found out Japan, JAPAN, got their grindhouse dvd released before us, why did they get it before us, here in the u.s.? They don't even have grindhousees over there, they didn't get the concept, but yet they get the dvd release before us AND they got an awesome packeging, complete with 6 discs. So whatever, I let it go, then I found out that the GERMANS are getting their dvd release this september, chhhh, and their packeging is the image above, it looks like like a gas can right? But a better looking one that the reservoir dogs one, ayyy, I'm so pissed...

I Hate This 'Tard

I hate Dane Cook with all my heart, he's as white as can be, but he has this bit, that really is fucking hilarious, please enjoy.

I'm Veronica

2008-07-12T21:32:00.001-07:00

Oh that Betty and Veronica! I love this comic, of course it began as Archie and Company, but these two bitches were so awesome, they got their series of comics. I've been reading them since I was probably 10. In case you didn't know, Veronica is the feisty brunette and Betty is the sweet little blonde (that wouldn't be the case in real life), they're both vying for Archie's attention throughout the series, and its pretty useless since it seems like it'll go on until paper doesn't exist anymore. I just love these two, so pick up your Betty and Veronica comic of the week at your local Ralphs, :).

Live Performances vs. In Studio

2008-07-12T21:06:00.000-07:00

Now, I'm all for live performances, but I'll be honest, some people just can't perform live! Example, one my of all time favorites, Amy Winehouse, sucks really bad, when she "performs" live, I don't know why, possibly the drugs, yeah, most likely the drugs, but still, she needs to get her shit straight. Now one person, that I'd rather hear live is John Mayer, yeah, he sounds great on record, but his live performances are nothing to compare to. I've posted one of his live performances and one of Amy Shithouses performances, you decide.

The Friday Night Project!

2008-07-12T19:39:00.000-07:00

So its the Friday Night project! The FNP is a sketch comedy series in the UK that airs every sunday night, its sort of like the equivalent to SNL here in the US, it has a guest celebrity host and musical guest every week, except they already have hosts. The two hosts are Justin Lee Collins and Alan Carr, they are two comedians from the UK, they help the celebrity host each week. I started watching the FNP because Lily Allen was a host and then I started to see that a lot of american celebrities and musicians were getting on this show, I don't know why it doesn't get reported here in the US, but some of my favorite musicians have hosted the show, such as like I've already mentioned, Lily Allen, Mark Ronson, Kanye West, and Amy Winehouse. I've posted the videos below to show you their hosting abilities.

Guilty Pleasure #1

2008-07-10T19:45:00.000-07:00

It's The Girl's Next Door! I love them! I've been watching this show since it came, which was 3 years ago. Short premise of the show, it's about Hugh Hefner's 3 girlfriends, Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt, and Kyndra Wilkinson. First of all, I love all of the girls, except Kyndra, I won't waste anytime describing her dumbass, btw, she's the one on the far left, holding up the number 3 with her fingers -_-. So anyways, Holly is so cool and so freakin pretty, so I can see why Hef picked her as his main girlfriend, now Bridget is the one that needs to get away from all of this; she's super smart, taking courses at UCLA, she is so sweet and funny, and as it turns out, she's married! But she said she's been sepereated for quite a while now, so there's my #1 guilty pleasure, The Girl's Next Door on E!. More GUILTY pleasures to come.

Does Your Soul Have a Cold?

2008-07-10T17:16:00.000-07:00

Is the name of a little known japanese documentary which studies depression and how it is treated in modern Japan. Take notice of the American Pharmaceutical slogan, "Does Your Soul Have a Cold?" being advertised in Japan as is. The film was beautifully done by film director and graphic designer Mike Mills. It was really...interesting to see the people this documentary follows young people with depression, living their lives, as normal as they try to live it, when behind closed doors, they confessed to the cameras their suicidal thoughts. I highly recommend Does Your Soul Have A Cold?

I love the Gwen Stefani fashion like L.A.M.B but its just a little too expensive for my taste, but she has another division call Harajuku Lovers, which is a more fun and affordable version of L.A.M.B, but the prices are still pretty insane, but I took the bait and bought myself a couple of her bags, and you should to!

File This Under...Underappreciated

2008-07-10T13:43:00.000-07:00

No, not the girl, the movie Babel. She's just a 1/4 of this great movie; so I'm guessing no one saw this movie, because, well, I have no idea. It has big star names such as Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. This movie came out in 2006, and I only know one person that has seen this movie. Babel is built like Pulp Fiction and Amores Perros, meaning its 4 stories woven together, all from different parts of the world. Babel is absolutely one of the best films I've ever seen and I hope you watch this movie and appreciate it for what its worth.

The One We're All Waiting For

2008-07-09T18:06:00.000-07:00

The Whole Bloody Affair, which is Kill Bill volumes 1 and 2 combined, with no black and white scenes, was supposed to come out late last year, postponed to early this year, then postponed to god when knows when. Although I am willing to shell out the 100+ bucks it'll most likely cost, the wait is more excruciating then the money issue itself. Damn you, Weinstein Company.

Wii-Rific!

2008-07-07T00:21:00.000-07:00

So since I literally only have about 20 bucks in my pocket, I can't buy the wii just yet, but I will, I WILL. I've been wanting it since it came out but since I'm not rolling in dough, like some gamers I know, I thought it would be best to wait, for when they ineviatbly reduced the prices and added more features, or different division, I don't know. I want it. I will get it.

Before it gets Butchered...

2008-07-06T21:59:00.000-07:00

By Hollywood, The Lovely Bones is one if those books you get mesmerized by. The author, Alice Sebold remembers her youth in this semi-autobiography, and writes poetically about a very violent crime that happened to her. So back to the Hollywood thing, this book is being adapted into film, the director of the film is Peter Jackson, from Lord of the Rings fame, so I'm not too worried about the imagery being fucked up as opposed to the actual story. I'm not sure that they can capture the wonderful story that this book really is. But anyway, if you give this book a chance, I know you won't regret it, even if you aren't into books that much, I highly recommend it; the imagery is phenomenal, and it is written so beautifully, that's why I love, The Lovely Bones.

2008-07-06T19:26:00.000-07:00

THAT is Spike Jonze. This guy is too cool and he knows it. He's a director of music videos and commercials, and an Academy Award-nominated director and producer, most notable for his 1999 film Being John Malkovich. He's also credited as a co-creator of Jackass. He's worked with some of my favorite artists and bands. To name a few, Sonic Youth, Beastie Boys, Bjork, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Daft Punk, Weezer, and Kanye West. I now present, Spikes' best work...

Yo, I'll tell ya want I want, what I really really want!

So first of all, if there are any girls reading this, you MUST know about Betsey Johnson, she's a great designer with a sick sense of style, her dress designs blow other dress knock offs away. Her designs look like they're on acid, and that's a good thing. I bought a dress of hers and I wore it to prom. It was soooo sweet, I'm definitely buying more of her dresses, She also designs causal dresses, not just these wild crazy party dresses, so check out her designs girls.

Sigh

2008-07-06T17:08:00.000-07:00

Where do I begin?...I seriously don't know where to begin. Well, one of my favorite novelty restaurants. If you haven't been here, you should go, right, now, after finishing reading my blog, ha ha. There isn't many here in Los Angeles, the closest ones being at The Grove, and at the tourist trap, also known as Hollywood and Highland. The one at the grove is bigger and roomier with more seating but it lacks the spark of that the one on Hollywood and Highland has. The waiters are very much into the novelty aspect of the restuarant, which is great, because that's one of the reasons that keeps me coming back. So remember, order your Rocket Double, with an order of cheese fries with a nice glass of strawberry milkshake and enjoy.

Wake Up With The King...

2008-07-06T16:32:00.000-07:00

So please tell me that I was NOT the only one that used to get creeped out by those burger king ads, you know, the ones with the "king". That scary plastic mask needs to go back to the burger king basement. What's scarier is that some people dressed up like him for Halloween. Did anyone ever see that one commercial for like the new stroke on a sandwhich, it was like a burger, for breakfast, and a guy wakes up with "the king" next to him, and they eat the sandwhich together in his bed? Ugh...

As a graduation gift, I recieved two bottle of wine from my sister. I haven't opened them yet, and I'm not sure when I"ll open up the first bottle. Wine is really good, relaxes me when I don't even need to be relaxed. It is very intoxicating and I can never have less than 2 glasses, so please pick up a bottle of white zinfandel and enjoy yourself. Drink up!

The Greatest Show that YOU never saw

2008-07-04T14:56:00.000-07:00

It sucks that most of you won't know about my next topic, Freaks and Geeks. But hopefully by the end of this blog, you'll be a fan of this show. Judd Apatow (director of The 40 year old Virgin, Knocked Up) and Paul Feig (who now directs The Office episodes, another favorite of mine) created this wonderful show with as much heart and as much humor as the next Apatow movie. Simply put, this show is about high school set in 1980's Michigan. This show ran through the 1999/2000 season, was cancelled and to be forever forgotten. But this show was so good, it grew a fan base and now has an almost cult like status. I've posted the link to the pilot episode, and if you like quirky humor, hilarious dialogue, and Seth Rogen, or just tv in general, then this is for you. Please watch, and enjoy.

Pass the tortilla chips

2008-07-04T13:47:00.000-07:00

I fucking love mexican food, most white people enjoy it, they always say they love it, who wouldn't? The warm tortilla chips they serve an hour before you get your enchiladas, the gooey cheese on anything you order and the over priced cup of sprite you ordered, who doesn't love that? Well, here are some of the best mexican restuarants in L.A. starting with one that is literally 2 minutes away from my house..

1. La Barca, it gets completely packed, especially on weekends, even more at night, but is it worth it? You bet it is, police love this place, they're there almost everytime I go there and USC kids coming flocking faster than at a HOlister sale, the wait is excruciating, almost up to an hour, but if you want a few drinks with some authentic mexican food and the company of your good friends at this beautiful restuarant, try it.

http://losangeles.citysearch.com/profile/8823/los_angeles_ca/la_barca.html

2. Don Antonio's, this place is great, if any girls are reading this, you might recognize this place as the frequent haunt of Heidi and Spencer's, of Hills fame, they love this restuarant and you can't blame them (even though we all want them to die), it has a great atmoshpere, the parking is a bit of a drag, your best bet is to just leave it up to the valet, enjoy.

http://losangeles.citysearch.com/profile/92460/los_angeles_ca/don_antonio_s.html

3. El Tepeyac, I used to come into this joint back when I was a little girl, I've been coming here for years, the food is great, staff is polite, the wait is a bitch, need I say more? GO NOW!

http://losangeles.citysearch.com/profile/59599/los_angeles_ca/el_tepeyac.html

4. La Parilla, now this restuarant has been given a lot of shit lately, been it's stil one of my favs, be sure to try their famous desert, the fried ice cream, yeah you read that correctly.

http://losangeles.citysearch.com/profile/59555/los_angeles_ca/la_parrilla.html

I hope you visit these places, because they're really good, I know there are a lot more mexican restuarants, but these are definitely worth trying. happy farting!

Job Hunting is a bitch

2008-07-04T13:29:00.000-07:00

Like I've just said, job hunting is a bitch, applying here, applying there, same old bullshit, same fucking questions, are you tidy? if someone was to steal somethng, would you tell on them? are you puncuatual? where do you sleep? what are you wearing right now? I even remembered my social security number, I've written it down so many fucking times, and maybe that's a good thing. So I applied at the following places: Target (meh) Claires (-_-) FYE (can't get enough of those movies) Toys r' Us (fuck it) Barnes and Noble (for the old jewish lady in me) and Pearls art store on La Cienega, so these are potential employers, I'll be wating for their calls, if they are even interested on a fairly unexperinced out of high school gradute, in the mean time, I'll just enjoy the free time I have as of right now thank you very much...

Something I have that you never will

2008-07-03T19:30:00.000-07:00

So this is my first blog, I'm just gonna write about my stuff, nothing too personal. I wanted to start off with something I just bought recently, my Grindhouse dolls. If you've never seen Grindhouse or even heard of it, get out of my blog because you won't know what I'm talking about, ha ha, but yeah, I was at Suncoast the other day and I saw these toys from one of my favorite movies, so I decided to buy them, they were cheap, so that's one reason I bought them but because I just love this movie, it is bad and people know it but it's also one of the best movies you never saw.
