timepiececlockAnyone else notice how Shigure is the slut of FB fic? He gets paired with freaking everyone.

I watched Kill Bill 1 with my family on Saturday night. My brother and I had seen it before, my dad, mom, and aunt hadn't. I was surprised, but my mom sat through the whole thing and even made a few jokes afterward instead of walking out and giving me a look that says "why do I ever let you convince me to watch this awful stuff?"
I guess there's something about campy movies that can take in people who loath the entire genre these movies spoof.
I still love O-ren Ishii's council speech. And I've still got to convince someone to go to the theater to see volume 2 with me.
I did watch the "making of--" thing on the DVD. The interviews with Tarantino cracked me up. He uses the word "like" the way a California teenager does-- spoken rapidly, interjected between every 5 words, and with great nuances of emphasis and meaning that only one's fellow like-saying peers can truly appreciate.
I don't even know where he grew up or anything about his origin, but it cracks me up to hear "adults" talking the way I did 3 years ago and still do when I'm relaxed.

about above comment...
Date: 2004-06-07 11:24 pm (UTC)Also, I have just one more to add.
1. Cowboy Bebop
2. Trigun
3. Naruto
4. Fruits Basket
5. Full Metal Alchemist
6. The Vision of Escaflowne
- 1 season, divergent manga that is not as good. A movie that is so horrible that you will weep and demand your money back. But the tv series that was first... this is the best anime series I've ever seen. Trigun is my baby and Naruto is my mad addiction, but Esca takes the cake from a critical perspective. On every level it is stellar.

Date: 2004-06-07 11:56 pm (UTC)I'd previously nabbed what I thought was a torrent of Full Metal Alchemist only to discover it was actually Full Metal Panic. Heh.
Do you know anything about One Piece or Tenshi Ni Narumon? I've got the most revolting cel of Raphael that someone offered me for bills for because, apparently, he is TEH HOTTZ!

Date: 2004-06-08 08:29 am (UTC)One Piece is entertaining, VERY entertaining, but I like the manga better. Because the manga and the anime are almost exactly the same, the manga lets you get through the extremely long multi-episdoe fights a little faster. Also, it's kind of repetitive the way Ranma 1/2 is repetative, you know in a cute and dependable way, and that repetition is easier to take in manga form.

www.boxtorrents.com has full sized torrents of MANY anime series, including FMA. unfortunately I downloaded it, and it skippes 3 seconds every once in a while. Doesn't really damage your viewing, but it is annoying.
