If I was asked what computer to have for my job, I think I would choose 「マウス」. But only if it comes with Shiraishi-san as tech help.
“Don’t mind Dave. His callous mask hides his grief. You know what they say, little man, big emotion.”
I watched Annabelle: Creation. Maybe “watched” is a strong word, because I watched it from behind my fingers. Was it too scary? Not really, but I always watch scary movies from behind a veil of fingers. It’s a habit.
Not sure why I like too, but I do.
Scratch that I like to watch the scary movies because of the heeby-jeebies it gives me. I like the goosebumps up my arm. I like going home in the dark and wondering if I should leave the lights on. I like sleeping to the glow of the television if not to the light on. It’s weird but it’s fun.
Anyhow. Annabelle is a prequel to the first Annabelle film which itself was a prequel to the first Conjuring film. It wasn’t stupid scary like The Conjuring was and it doesn’t have the evil character like the Nun from the second Conjuring. She’s there but in a great cameo. LOL.
There were a few things that bugged me. There always is. Like that damn scarecrow. Why even have that? Then there’s the Demon. There’s too much of it.
Overall, that doll is still the scariest thing out there.

“I might as well. After all, I am the belle of the ball.” “More like party slut.” “Jealous.”
The Hitman’s Bodyguard is a movie you watch when there are no other movies to watch. Even then, you flip the channel to Chiller or TruTV, but you find yourself going back to The Hitman’s Bodyguard because that is your life at the moment.
Don’t waste your time. I already have. You were warned.

“Good work, Dave. It takes a real man to crumble under pressure so fast.”
Let’s start of 2017’s NewsRadio Quote Month with a rocker.
BabyMetal death!
If there must only be one Nakamoto sister, I prefer Himetan and her lovely beam (ひめたんベーム!). But that won’t be possible come her graduation. So we’ll have to have the imouto, SUMetal. I believe she’s got a voice and poise better than Techi from Keyaki-chans. She would give her a run for the money.
So. The fox god will guide us well this month.
Just Posting Something That Was In Draft… Again
The following should’ve been a Link of the Day at the end of July. It’s what I was going to post while drinking one of those lagers, but iPad Pro kind of sucks at blogger’s web interface. Plus I was also drunk at the time…
Link of the Day [7.28.17]
“This Tampa-style Lager is inspired by the traditional German-style Helles, which translates to “light colored.” Perfect for the Florida heat, it’s a beer that’s made for drinkin’ when it’s truly hotter than helles outside.”
Spider-Man: Homecoming
Spider-Man: Homecoming is no Spider-Man 2, but at least it isn’t as unlikeable as The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
I almost said this one was as good as 2. Almost. It at least made you care for and like Peter Parker. Of course, if you watched close enough it followed 2 very closely in emotional beats. It was very much the same film. And that’s why I knocked it down a bit.
I liked Peter Parker, but he’s such a kid.
4 of 5 stars.
Baby Driver
I didn’t think this was Edgar Wright’s masterpiece. You can’t beat his Coronetto Trilogy. Baby Driver tries, but sure can’t. It did have a funny moment with Mike Myers, but that would be funny.
Anyhow, I saw this a while ago. I don’t remember much. But I’m sure I would watch this on FXX when they show it and I’ll enjoy it then, too.

Link of the Day [8.06.17]
I wash watching Nogizaka’s 3rd Gen closing out Tokyo Idol Festival 2017 on YouTube when word came out that our beloved Himetan, Nakamoto Himeka, announced her graduation. Fudge. It ruined the show.
Himetan! Nooo! I hope it wasn’t because of health reasons. And I hope it wasn’t because she didn’t make senbatsu for the 18th single. But why? I am sad. Now we don’t have 46…

Fucking finally.
I blame Google for keeping it alive. But I’m sure some dude is going to keep it going. Fuck those guys. And fuck Google for keeping it alive. THppppttt on Android for pretending to.
Adobe, let me know where you bury it so that I can merrily dance on the grave!
Again, I blame Google.

Barefoot Summer
I’m gonna post this, but it will be gone in a few weeks because of the copyright police. For now, though enjoy!
Hadashde summer isn’t my favorite of the three singles from last year, but everytime I listen to it from the live I love it and join in with the rest of the fans on the call…
Hai! Hai! Hai! Hai!
Also, 3rd Gen! And an Ayatii blunder!!
So good.
Let’s go to Japan in November to help close out their tour!
