That's why I'm excited to see it, because of the Asian stars who are in it (one of whom is my neighbor. Woot!). I'm not really a big fan of Emile Hersh but it looks exciting. :woot:

wew... you live next door to Rain now? :beaten:

yup. Sanada, Rain, Matthew Fox, and that friday night lights dude are the only ones i know. i didn't spot two of the above in the trailer though.

LOL! I wish!! Psshhhh. Nah, I'm talking about Park Joon-hyung from the Korean group, G.O.D. He lives next to my old high school. I've met him a couple of times when I used to work at Target.

not lucky. IMO his body is kinda scary :sweat: . does he go to Target topless? :beaten: . anyway a couple of korean artistes (for female, the plastics. they should learn a couple of things from Ayumi Hamasaki :hehe:) freak me out. especially that JYP dude. he's like *shudders*

anyway...

Well, LOTR has a lot of swords, but not much sorcery. :mrgreen:

So ka.

Regardless, the books and movies didn't pique my interest at all... :sweat:

LOL. No, he was fully clothed the last time I saw him and he is a little intimidating when you first meet him. I'm like a midget compared to him. But he's really nice in person. He's very down-to-earth and humble.

I agree, JYP is the most unattractive person ever! Never liked him. His music is bizarre and his clothing style....yea. Gross. I'll have to show you a picture I found one of these days. It's....scary.

But yea, plastic surgery is a big thing in Korea, especially for girls. HEHEHE. A lot of them are not as extreme as Ayumi Hamasaki. That girl is just plain freaky. Looks like an alien.

Anyways......the kiddies are over and want to watch High School Musical 2. Time to lock myself in my room again. :beaten:

If you were in a hotel, you could call in for room service. :mrgreen:

I watched a fascinating film last night titled:

CITIES OF LIGHT: THE RISE AND FALL OF ISLAMIC SPAIN

Not in theaters, it's a documentary (sort of). A history lesson (sort of).

It was on PBS and if you're in the U.S. and get PBS... I highly recommend it.

The PBS blurb about the film:

This film (from the producers of MUHAMMAD: LEGACY OF A PROPHET) takes viewers on an epic journey back into one of the most captivating and important periods of world history - a centuries-long period when Muslims, Christians and Jews inhabited the same far corner of Western Europe and thrived. The lemon tree, the water wheel and Aristotle's lost philosophy all arrived in Europe through Islamic Spain, as did algebra and the beginnings of modern medicine, science and poetry. Here were the very roots of the European Renaissance. But the fragile union dissipated, destroyed by greed, fear and intolerance.

That sounds familiar. :sweat:

Last nite i watched Night At The Museum... whats up with that T-Rex?Is it
actually a doggy? :rofl:

We saw Mrs. Palfrey at the Claremont recently. A quiet, slow paced touching film about an elderly women and the young writer she befriends.
Joan Plowright gives her usual outstanding performance.
We both loved it.[/u]

Oh no, nothing like that. JYP's style is more...I don't even know how to describe it. But it does include white stretchy spandex, short shorts, and plastic clothing. There, 'nough said. :bleh:

Ok, the kiddies are now done with High School Musical 2. Now they want to watch The Incredibles, which I am totally fine with. At least that movie was cute and enjoyable. And there's no really bad singing from annoying teenagers. HEHEHE. :hehe:

Omgosh, that's a movie I won't watch again! I hate spiders! Eeeek! Especially giant spiders like the one in that movie. :bleh:

I didn't mind it that much... What was worse were all the girls screaming in the theater... :bleh: :shakehead:

REALLY?! I was a huge LOTR buff for a good few years. I then fell off the bandwagon... but I'm sure I'll hope on when The Hobbit is released. :victory:

I saw I am Legend. Not bad. I was really impressed with Smith's acting tho. He's gone a long way since his Fresh Prince days...

Did you ever watch The 39 Steps, considering all the trouble I went through?
