+ :: the killers ... i am loving this album ... the first half of it at least
- :: the grudge ... oh god, i had serious misgivings about this, but it is so much worse than i thought it would be. please do NOT go and see this awful hollywood remake of an ok japanese horror film. stop the insanity. they've stolen the slow pacing and rising tension

i listen to the killers on the way to work which causes major embarrassment.

hello.

[_generica]

oh really ??
why ??
i don't know anything about them ... is it shameful to like them ??
i'm always behind the times

hi.

[pyjama]

yeah it's shameful to like them. like, more shameful than franz ferdinand.

i am also looking forward to les savy fav.

and what is it with america stealing all the japanese films???

are you going to go see totoro when they screen it at acmi next month? i know that everyone's seen it. but it's free! you can't turn down a free film, can you?

[_generica]

but i don't like ff, so i get points there, right?

so why is it shameful ? gimme details.

america killed the genre
japan re-invented it
america wants to kill it again

what is totoro .. never heard of it
and why is it free ?

[pyjama]

i guess you get points there. though sometimes i kind of like ff, so maybe we are both losers. ;)

i'm not sure why it's shameful. i find that sometimes they really annoy me, and sometimes i can kind of like them. they remind me of glam rock out of england from the 90's, a la Suede. kind of like a cross between Suede and The Faint, but they seem to be missing something. i'm not sure.

totoro = my neighbour totoro. it's a japanese animation. done by the guy who did "Spirited Away". ACMI is showing it as part of their Japanese film fest.
