Link of the Day [7.11.08]

Aya Hirano was the voice of Haruhi Suzumiya. She’s big in Japan. And, seemingly, like all idols, she’s got a blog. It’s in Japanese, but each of her posts is accompanied by a picture. I like to look at them, because it is either her cuteness or something she’s eating at the time. (Sometimes its also of stuff in Japan.)

School Rumble #281

Finally. After a couple of very weak chapters, School Rumble comes back to the main reason to read it: Eri v. Yakumo. The previous chapters had Eri and Harima finally making a couple, at least a pretend one. It seemed that Yakumo was out of the picture. She’s back in. Onigiri is on!

I’m conflicted because it seemed to be that Yakumo gave up, so I was somewhat happy that Eri won. Yet, damn I can’t give up on Yakumo. Go quiet girl! Go!

Also, the scans were cleaned up better and it looks better too.

Quote of the Day [7.10.08]

“You know something Fox. Right now in Europe they’re trying some 80 year-old camp guard for Nazi war crimes. And all around our country they got guys on death row for murdering 1, 2, 3 guys. And they probably deserve what they’re going to get. But you & I… we know a couple of people that are personally responsible for the death of what, 50,000 non-military personnel? Librarians, teachers, doctors, women, children. All dead! We’ve wiped-out entire cultures! And for what? Not one C.I.A. agent has ever been tried, much less accused of any crimes. You guys think you’re above the law. Well, you ain’t above mine.”

Quote of the Day [7.09.08]

“My fellow Americans. As a young boy, I dreamed of being a baseball, but
tonight I say, we must move forward, not backward, upward not forward,
and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom.”

Quickie movie post

Wall E: Amazing first hour. Silent film. Second hour a little bit shaky as a story. Liked the deranged robot room like the robot torture chamber in Jedi.

4 of 5 stars.

Hancock: Unexpected. Surprised. Somewhat delighted. Amazed that some Hollywood producer would have the nerve to create a comic book character without the comic book. First movie in a while that tried to establish its own universe. You knew from the first minute you realized that Charlize Theron was in the movie that something was going to happen.

3 of 5 stars.
