Finally!

I have finally updated my slow (very slow) blog! Sorry for the late update. Finals week = HELL.

Anyway, now that finals are over I plan on making some time for my blog (among other things). Besides updating my blog I am focusing on some video projects with a local small-time band. We plan on finishing a video by the end of February, but seeing as how slowly we have been progressing I doubt we can finish by the end of March -.-

So! With that said lets get to what I have been seeing recently. First, and by far the most important, is "Slumdog Millionare". This was the best movie I have ever seen. And im not exaggerating at all - its really THAT good. The strong point of the movie lies in its storytelling. The director managed to blur the line between past and present and patched them together to make the story seamless and very smooth. It had just the right amount of mystery and revealing, a little give-and-take that left the viewer hooked to the movie, it reveals key parts of the story and at the same time presents more mystery. Not only that, but the director of photography really deserves to be mentioned. The way he presented India from the inside shows what "slumdog" really means. The beginning of the movie - when the 2 main protaganists are still children - was very interesting to me. The scenes of the children running through a jungle of rickety tin shacks and cramped dirty alleys was a very defining point in the origins of Salim and... The other kid... >.> Anyways, I can't really think of any negative points to this movie. Aside from the gross-out factor in some scenes. (Like the kid jumping in a pile of... Well just watch the movie.) All in all.. WAIT! I FORGOT TO MENTION ONE THING!!! LATIKA! The actor for Latika is gorgeous.

So! Thats all I got for tonight. Hah. Not much for a 21 day update huh? AH WELL! So is the life of a young adolescent with nothing to do. Anyway, a little something for my music loving J-rock fanatics!

This is the ending song to Bounen no Xam'd (A really good anime that I have yet to finish) Fall-Q should cover this song! Fall-Q should be a J-rock Cover Band! (Its in English BTW, The lead singer is apparently from Arizona)
