Babes, breasts... and much bouncing ensues.
I'm busy trying to work out if I am hypocritical. More specifically I went with a group of people to see Dead or Alive. I'd like to specifically state I didn't organise it, that would be anarch-kitty who has actually played at least one of the source games... and presumably wanted to see the mockery that would result when it was adapted for the big screen. I' ( Read more... ) -
Snakes, Planes... and much biting ensues.
Just got back from Dinner and a movie. The dinner was surprisingly good, the Herdsman Lake Tavern looks like one of those immense barns of a place that rely on cheap food and no competition. In practice though the food was fast and not bad at all, although they do seem to have a tendency to want to deep fry everything. Of course the dinner was made ( Read more... ) -

Heat Guy J
A friend at work, discovering I was into anime, offered me a title from his personal collection. The rather mysterious "Heat Guy J". Not mysterious because it's rare or exotic, it had a well funded commercial release, but interesting because it seems to have bypassed all the anime fan's I know. Some knew the title, but not much more ( Read more... ) -

New Review: Noir
A new review up... finally. Well, it's not even a new review, I had an old review of Noir but it was based on only 6 episodes. I gave it a worthy, because it seemed to have a really cool start rich with promise, but as I watched I realised how shallow and dull much of the content is. It was really quite a struggle finishing the damn thing. But it ( Read more... ) -
My ears.... so good.
From the opening of Texhnohalyze the soundtrack steps easily into the back of your mind and starts happily pounding on the walls. It's damn fine stuff, potently driving but without being boring like so much of the beat driven music is. And some of the individual sounds from which it is constructed, like the sort of "back-scrape" in "Guardian Angel ( Read more... ) -
Hope... has gone.
So says Lady Death, from the astoundingly average animated movie of the same name. A movie that's not even bad enough to laugh at, it's just soo awfully average, showing clearly the near complete lack of sophistication or imagination on the part of those who brought it into being. It's not anime either, since the script is entirely western (Carl ( Read more... ) -
Anime Reviews ... why I've done none.
It's partly because I'm soo busy, lots of thesis re-work I should be doing in addition to
something far more enjoyable (a.... a.... girlfriend omgwtf!). The other reason is that I
was blessed by the heavens with a girlfriend who enjoys anime... and brings a substantial
personal collection into the deal. As a result I have just been struck by shock and ( Read more... ) -

Anime Meta-Review
html! That makes things a lot easier, I assumed it would have it's own obscure format... although an lj-cut sounds somewhat painful.
