Been watching a slew of korean movies lately, The man from nowhere an instant classic (like my fav bittersweet life) the action and humour and tragic drama all balanced nicely although the chinese version i watched had bad English subtitling but happy news as the US version comes out 8th march so i will buy a another copy. (my version said' feed' everytime a character said talk)
Rough Cut was another film i really enjoyed, story of 2 characters, one an action star (which i hope to be one day) and a gangster who dreams of being an actor, when their paths meet they each offer each other something to think about and they decide to make a movie together where the action scenes are all real, the punches and kicks etc...simply awesome, i hope to be a superstar like that action hero but hopefully where people dont question my credibility (so i will train hard like burce lee and donnie yen :P my heroes)
Wu Jing-itis at the moment, seen drunken monkey, city under seige, SPL (for like the 3rd time) and fatal contact in the last week, i hope he makes it big - he's doing well and i look forward to his work in shaolin and windblast, took donnie til he was like 40 to make it big so hoping Wu Jing can make it earlier. (been watching alot of old donnie films too, holy virgin vs the evil dead, high voltage, chettah on fire, ballistic kiss etc i really cant wait to make films myself in a year from now :) be awesome!)
Anyway all my movie watching aside (its all i look forward to after a long nights work, or even a day off after constructive business) i have been working on things besides watching trademe for houses to rent in auckland and saving my cash. (which is hard considering how easy i fall prey to foreign dvds on ebay :) haha)
I'm working on a mugen game, a 2d fighter tournament, i have 14 characters designed and i am in the process of drawing them, myself included :) will be epic, i will post sample sketches on my deviant art site which should show up here anyway.
Havent worked on any music or Dark Records related things for a while now, but shooting a couple of live videos of Surface as well as promo pics for the site so once i get to aucks and catch up with a friend we can rehash the site, would be nice to making money while studying so i can save up for my feature film project after i graduate.
I'm thinking of doing a video blog for a year once i get my Aucks place as Something to build up suscribers on my channel and build a name for myself.
Last but not least, reading again. I'm happy. Right now I'm reading The winner stands alone by Paulo Coelho. And in this moment i am happy :) 13 days til i finish my job, 2 weeks and a bit til i leave for my 'merantau' :P
