watched willow, and superbad. not back to back, but within the last few days. that’s the new problem hannah and I have with our life, netflix. next up is kicking and screaming, and not the will farrell movie, which is actually pretty funny because he has a brother who is as old as his son. what’s also funny is I didn’t realize that sorsha and madmardigan actually fell in love for realz during the filming of willow and married shortly after. we are going to do a movie night sometime but I don’t know when, and what the hell to watch because there are so many movies/shows in the world. i had never seen superbad before, it’s funny. I also didn’t realize how much non stop fighting/action was in willow, as a kid I sort of thought the story was more balanced in pace, but I guess I was just wrong or had a.d.d. because there is a battle like every 2 min. I also didn’t realize that there half of willow’s lines in the movie were just yelling “madmardigan wait!” or “madmardigan stopppp!!!” or “Kaya!!!”, etc. hahaha. Also learned (i’m learning a lot) that the actor who played willow is like the ruler of all midget actors, if you look at his filmography he’s in everything that has ever needed a midget in his lifetime!! anyways, willow imho a perfect kid movie. back to movie night, would a sealab night be cool? or the proposed forever thai night ie Ong Bak + The Protector + thai food be cool? or like John Carpenter night ie BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA + THEY LIVE be cool? there are entirely too many options. hahhaa oh god i just thought of the ultimate: PITCH BLACK + FAST AND THE FURIOUS + XXX + CHRONICLES OF VIN DIESEL + a five course meal of mountain dew and code red.
IN THE PIT! IN THE PIT! IN THE PIT! IN THE PIT! IN THE PIT! IN THE PIT! IN THE PIT! IN THE PIT! IN THE PIT!
Here’s a comic titled “everything is over” I did for MOCCA this year. It was originally going to be 16 pages but got reduced to 8 pages due to time constraints. I think it works better as an 8 pager, and will likely not draw the other 8 pages. Finally uploaded.
I was a college dj for four years while in school. the station was kcpr and it was probably one of the nicest parts of my college experience. having an access to a huge amount of great music and constant updates on new releases with a great community of like minded music lovers was actually more awesome than it sounds. Although in retrospect I did take a year off when I was abroad and when I returned most everyone I knew was graduated, the new kids were cool and it turned out to be a good year station wise. I’m still coping with not being a part of that station. Searching for new music is an annoying/rewarding task, I’ve sort of forgotten how to do outside of a college radio station atmosphere. Anyways I will post some short reviews of cd’s I bought.
Hannah got us a projector. It’s all set up now, it’s pretty ridiculous looking because I used one of the leftover gargoyles/griffin’s as it’s base. But it works well, we saw Tekkonkinkreet on Sunday as a test. BTW that movie is awesome. It follows Taiyo Matsumoto’s work very well, and the visuals… amazing. I highly recommend it, and hope they adapt more of his manga into movies soon.
We’re hoping to have movie nights at our place soon. I want to see Inland Empire. Maybe a David Lynch night then. We have 3 couches so movie night seems to make sense.
Also, Hannah and I celebrated our 4 year anniversary. crazy.
If you haven’t noticed, I’ve added a few pages to the blog. Some architecture work and comics work is archived. It’ll take some time before it’s all up here.
