Okay, I actually had stuff I wanted to talk about, like having to go back to York today to drop off an essay which was a pain in the ass, and getting a DS for my birthday that was supposed to be new but ended up being used and already set up in French, but OMG THAT GOES OUT THE WINDOW, DAI NEWS YOU GUYS.
"Beck Rock Manga Gets Live-Action Film with Hiro Mizushima" AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH YOU GUYS I AM FREAKING OUT. I adored the BECK anime like you can't even believe, it sounds so stupid to say a series has ~a special place in my heart~ but if I was to say that about an anime series IT WOULD BE BECK, AAAAAAHHH THIS IS JUST SO SO SO PERFECT I AM IN HEAVEN~ |D
Cast, you guys, the cast is just awesome:
Mizushima Hiro as Minami Ryusuke <- AHAHA AWESOME MATCH-UP
Sato Takeru as Tanaka Yukio <- SO PERFECT, I AM SERIOUSLY SQUEEING LIKE AN IDIOT
Kiritani Kenta as Chiba Tsunemi <- FFFFFFF I NEVER WOULD'VE THOUGHT OF THAT BUT HE IS SERIOUSLY SO PERFECT, THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT
Nakamura Aoi as Sakurai Yuji <- QUITE POSSIBLY THE ONE I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THE MOST
Mukai Osamu as Taira Yoshiyuki <- FFFFFFFFFF what, seriously? I'll believe it when I see it HAHAHAHAHA WOW
AND, AND.
THE BEST PART?
THE BEST PART?
DIRECTED BY TSUTSUMI YUKIHIKO (20th Century Boys trilogy, Ikebukuro West Gate Park, the PIKA*NCHI films, etc).
Admittedly I am a little =/ =/ =/ about it being A FILM ABOUT A ROCK BAND and THEY DON'T SAY WHO'S WRITING THE MUSIC, but I'll get over it. (The anime had The Pillows and BEAT CRUSADERS so that'll be hard to top, but I won't say it's impossible. Wait, and hope! and all that.) I WOULD ALSO BE INTERESTED TO KNOW WHO'S ON SCRIPTWRITING DUTY, especially since 'manga-based movie about a band' makes me think of Nana which makes me think of Asano Taeko, and it's really unlikely it's her but IF IT IS I WILL DROWN MYSELF IN THE SINK, so... yeah.
So yeah, brb reading the manga. (Somebody might want to IM/e-mail me in a day or two to remind me to go eat something...)
