yes...i know i cant stick to a weekly schedule. so I've been on a weeks vacation from uni for easter in which ive done well i guess a moderate amount. Last Week I finally watched "A Better Tomorrow" which i bought a while back. Wow.
its rated as the 2nd best chinese film ever and i think it deserves it. something that is desguised as an action film actually carrys a dramamtic and meaningful story. i wonder why John Woo couldnt make any western films as good as this.
Really hanging out to see "Hard Boiled" now
Last saturday was Jen's 22nd which was pretty cool, we played some poker and joked around the whole night.
So yeah...on Thursday Matt came around to do some filming of the random parts in our dorito ad entry...we included him running around and throwing corn chips into the air.
Yesterday I went to the city with Matt to do the comic rounds. I picked up the next installment of the new "Punisher" series i was praising a few months back and it still is going strong.
However i also broke one of my sacred rules. I bought manga. Star Trek Manga. which i have to admit is pretty good. including a story that involves Kirk throwing down with a Emotion emitting teddy bear. Only could happen in Manga.
Matt picked up a preview of "Terminator Salvation" comic and the end of the prequel to the film. I gotta say the prequel was dissapointing and i really failed to be excited by it. I didnt care at all for what was going on in it. ah well.
Also picked up another chinese film called "Tiger on the beat" that im planning on watching tomorrow night some time.
Last night i had a sports night at youth which i was looking foreward to most of the week. It was fun apart from the pain i gained.
Today I was wrecked from the previous night and found that my crappy shoes had infact ripped off parts of my skin...pretty deep too. I couldnt walk and have been in slippers all day...i still cant walk properly. ugh.
So i made one trip out to pick up the lay-by I'd had away for a while and to get some lunch. I came back and started work on an essay for Cinema Studies. I'm almost done.
The lay-by was the complete "Twin Peaks". taking a break from essay writting i watched the pilot and a few episodes. again this is a fantastic show. David Lynch proves to be the hype on this one. I highly recommend seeing this. Special Agent Dale Cooper is without a doubt one of the best characters ive seen in a while.
ok so im running on a bit. I found some old-ish skits from mad tv on youtube that i cant stop watching. check this one out
So with that i wont run on a rant on how fox should not cancel "The Sarah Connor chronicles". but if they do you will hear my anger in one of these posts.
Ok im out for the night
Be seeing you

Ace of Kidneys
So again im writting this in the morning which may become the norm from now on. not that it really matters to anyone.
clocked Need for Speed: Undercover on monday so now im missing my gaming fix. actually i started playing Ace Attorney: Justice for All again so that might do for now.
Finally watched 12 Monkeys the other day aswell after having it on DVD for like 3 weeks. wow. i was pretty impressed by it and by the fact that it still is pretty creepy in places. If you havn't seen it do so now, its worth it.
So yesterday i had my first real assesment at uni for media studies which was an oral presentaion on genre theory. Anyway it went fantastically well thanks to great work of the whole group.
so thats some good news
Finally got some more devlopment on the whole Quantum of Solace DVD issue which is that a re-release will happen in the future with more special features a-la casino royale's 3 disc re-release. so i guess i'll just purchase the blu-ray for now and buy the later re-release.
im still pissed about it though
last night i stumbeled upon this which has both me and Matt addicted to watching, check it out.
Going bowling with the youth tonight which im looking foreward to heaps. cant wait.
Pre-production on one of my films has pretty much started with script writting stage. its got me all fired up to know stuff is moving even if just a tiny little bit. Ezekiel better work hard on that script.
jeez its very film noir out my window right now. so much rain and darkness. yes i have official ran outn of things to say...so on that note
Be seeing you
