OH FUCK YOU, NAKAJI.

And you, Dr. Catboy. YOU DO KNOW YOU ARE BETTER THAN THIS SHIT, RIGHT?

Oh LJ promos, sometimes I just don't get you.

You know what else I don't get? Has there been any proof that Asano Taeko and Eriko Kitagawa aren't the exact same person? Like, documented, have they ever been in the same room together ( Read more... )

Right, that's it for me with Pasta. I tried. Episode 10 - I couldn't even finish watching. I think the actors Gong Hyo Jin and Lee Sun Gyun are enormously charismatic and personally appealing, but their characters and the wonky relationship dynamic bothers me to no end, and if it was any other OTP situation, the little cute moments I would be going ( Read more... )

pasta episode nine: everyone has the emotional maturity of a cranky five year old - EVERYONE.

Just watched St. Elmo's Fire for the very first time, thanks to Hulu.com - and wow. A movie full of terrible people. And the characters that weren't morally repugnant, were hit with a huge dose of oh my god, WHY ARE YOU SO STUPID ( Read more... )

sorry for the spam, f-list.

kitsune714: so, okay

kitsune714: is hot for about three weeks.
kitsune714: and then you realize.
kitsune714: UNEMPLOYED.

kitsune714: that too

I hate that feeling of being sideswiped by crazy - I was reading a fairly informative, critically-minded blog about j-dramas, and then as the objective review speak was intercut with more salacious fanboying and then a completely repugnant summary of a drama trope, I realized I had gone over the danger line - you know you're not going to agree with ( Read more... )

there'll probably be another Hanadan remake.

Snaps to tinyangl for bringing this gem to my attention ~ apparently there's going to be a Filipino remake of Hana Yori Dango (the Shojo that will never die)

thoughts, besides OMG WHY ANOTHER REMAKE.

I'm barely 25 minutes into Halfway (and I think I will go on an Okada Masaki movieathon this Thanksgiving weekend - because yes, I'm thankful for sensitive cute boys) and I'm highly irritated with Kie Kitano's Hiro, because GIRL, YOU ARE TOO CLINGY AND VIOLENT. I realize the 'cutely violent school girl' is just another archetype in Japan's WTF ( Read more... )

to even consider Jo March and Anne of Green Gables in the same company as Bella Swan is laughable, and frankly, insulting

I think Twilight has its own place in popular culture, but I don't think it's going to be a classic, unless we're talking of the cult, camp it's so bad it might be good -type of classic, because of course, there is always room ( Read more... )
