blue_lotus13The finale of Carnivale Season 1- Excellent. This was a great arc, and a good end to the season. I look forward to season 2 whenever it reaches us here in Canada.
Bad Education- Another great film by Aldomovar. Gael Garcia Bernal is fantastic as a transvestite. He looks hot as a woman and has a great ass. I won't tell you much about the plot, except to say that it's incredibly twisted. It's a story within a story and you really have to pay attention when you watch it.
(Back to Gael- This movie is also hot because they show you the outline of Gael's package, and his pubes without showing you his equipment. This is such a great tease and probably hotter than showing the whole thing.)
Batman Begins- I rate this about as good as the Spidermans. It was a good superhero pic, but that's about it for me. I was disturbed by the Asian stuff at the beginning. It seemed to me to be feeding into the stereotypes that everyone is a ninja, and this bugged. However, the scenery at the very beginning looked a bit like Mongolia, which made me happy. Also, did anyone else start thinking of Liam Neeson as Quai Gon (sp) at the beginning of the film? I sure did.
I was quite annoyed when Rachel was on the monorail because she had a car. Why the hell would she be riding the monorail since she had a car and that monorail didn't look safe.
I think I have a new lust for Cillian Murphy. This makes sense because he's skinny and has nice cheekbones and lips, while Mr. Bale was a little too hulky looking for me.
I also saw the filming of the L-word this week. They were filming at the Vancouver Art gallery and were using big lights outside. I didn't see any of the stars, even though there have been reports of Gina Gershon at Chapters. She came in once and bought some yoga books. I think Gina Gershon is extremely hot, and I'm sad I missed her.
I also walked by another location this week. I was somewhat excited because I saw a bunch of production trucks outside a hotel, but discovered they were only filming a Burger King commercial. This would have been completely unremarkable, except I saw a crew member mixing up a huge vat of orange, cheese like, special sauce using paint and a paint mixer. Ew.
