Oh happy day!
Got a whole bunch of stuff in the mail the other day. I was so happy that i took pictures! Look!
(Ignore those DVDs. I was just too lazy to put them away.)
OMG. What could it be!??! And what could be so big that someone had to send it in a pizza box??
The Eye
Well it’s time once again for me to recommend a movie that 97% of you probably haven’t even ever heard of (ala the Infernal Affairs trilogy, which i hear is going to be remade by Martin Scorsese, possibly starring Brad Pitt and Leo ‘King Of The World’ DiCaprio. w00t!).
ANYWAY, to the 3% of you who’ve seen The Eye, whether it was during its super ultra limited US release last year or on bootleg VCD/DVD if you live in Asia (because seriously, nobody in Asia actually goes to the movies when they can just get all the latest releases on VCD/DVD like a day after [or sometimes even a fucking week before] its official theatrical release date), you might remember The Eye to be one of the better Hong Kong produced horror movies of the year. I definitely thought so. And for once, it was nice to actually watch a horror movie that actually had genuine scares in it. I can tell you that there’s at least one BIG scare in the movie and it wasn’t even a cheap BOO scare. I guarantee that it’ll make your girlfriend jump if you watch it with her.
A coupla years ago, i saw Ringu (aka The Ring) and contrary to what my roommate told me at the time, i didn’t find it in the least bit frightening. Then i saw the American remake last year and while i do admit that it’s scarier than the original, it still didn’t do anything for me (although i’ve heard that it scared the bejeezus out of most American viewers, mostly those who were unaccustomed to Asian style horror [you know… creepy girls with long hair covering their face kind of ‘horror’… which is so typical in Asia that it doesn’t really scare ‘us’ anymore… us being us azns of course… unless you’re Stacy and you get pretty much find everything scary, even silly Aliens and Predators like in that Batman: Dead End short. Yeah, she actually thought it was scary]). But anyhow, i think it’s safe to say that if the American remake of The Ring scared you, then The Eye will probably scare you shitless. And that’s saying a lot since, remember it isn’t a remake (although i think they probably ARE going to remake it and Americanize it at some point in the future.. the rights have already been bought by New Line) but yet it’s just as slick and as stylish as an American remake (Ringu = blah. not scary. The Ring = slick. scary. The Eye = very slick (for a Hong Kong movie). and twice as scary). But of course, with me telling you that it’s supposed to be scary, if you ever do decide to watch this movie someday, you’re probably gonna be bracing yourself for all the scares and thus, diluting the overall experience. Which is why it’s always good to go in as ‘fresh’ as possible (i.e not watching trailers and reading reviews prior to watching said horror movie so as to not know what to expect and subsequently be pleasantly scared shitless when you’re supposed to be).
ANYWAY, for those of you who missed out on The Eye, here’s the trailer for the first movie. Which is presumably the most you’ll ever see of it seeing that it’s a foreign movie with *gasp* subtitles and we all know how everybody HATES subtitles in these here parts.
And now for those of us who’ve actually seen the movie, treat yourselves to the teaser trailer for the SECOND movie, cleverly titled, The Eye 2, of course.
Note: FOR MAXIMUM EFFECT. TURN UP THE VOLUME. TURN OFF THE LIGHTS. AND WATCH IT ALONE.
It’s not much but FUCK. Lemme know how it went for all you Eye veterans.
SHIT. SCARY.
Tina Fey
I think she looks better with her SNL glasses on.
Speaking of which, the Ben Affleck Gigli skit made me laugh tonight.
Sad
Well according to all the Olsen Twin 18th Birthday Countdown sites out there, as of today, there’s only 91 days left before the both of them turn 18.
June 13, 2004. 18 years old.
You know, i wonder what’s going to happen once they actually turn 18. I think it’ll be a sad thing. I mean, once they turn 18, we’ll all lose the novelty of waiting for the big day to come. And once it’s done and over with, there won’t be anything more to look forward to (well, except for their inevitable move to PG-13 or, heaven forbid, R rated movies of course).
The day they turn 18 will be like the day Return Of The King came out in theaters. Fans all over the world who’ve been waiting for the day to come will both be equally happy and sad. Like how LOTR fans were happy because the movie finally came out and sad because there won’t be anymore LOTR movies to look forward to anymore.
Like how Olsen fans will be happy because the girls will finally be legal (so they won’t have to feel guilty about having all those naughty thoughts about them anymore). And sad because they’re not illegal anymore, because i mean come on now, that was part of the novelty right? The fact that they weren’t legal and it made it even more naughtier to have those kinds of thoughts.
But oh well. There’s other dates to look forward to i guess. Hehehe. You fucking pedophiles.

Justin,
Hey — I’m a really big fan of your site. I’ve visited on an almost every weekday basis for the past few years — you and I are actually friends on friendster.com as well! I tell people about your site and link to it from my own. Please keep up the good work!
Like all Howard Stern fans, I was completely outraged by the past weeks events. On Tuesday, March 16 at 10PM, one of the bands I manage will be giving a special show in honor and support of Howard in New York City. While we know this can probably have no real influence with the right people, we feel it’s important to make our voices heard and hope others will join us in doing the same thing.
I was hoping that you might help us to get the word out. The band is called The Boroughs and are a very popular act in the club scene in NYC (people compare the band to The Violent Femmes and The Ramones). This is a free show, so we will not profit anything by this. We simply hope to have a large gathering of support and protest over what’s happened to Howard. Anything you might do to help us publicize this with your popular site would be greatly appreciated.
Again, keep up the great work with the site.
All the best,
Chris Burkett
Manager
The Boroughs
Venue: Luna Lounge
Address:121 Ludlow Street
City: New York, NY
Price: FREE ADMISSION
Time: 10 PM

I’m sure most of you have heard. Howard’s reign on radio is coming to an end thanks to the F(u)CC(kers). Score one for censorship =(
You know, i actually laughed when i read “you and I are actually friends on friendster.com as well!“. Hahaha. Friendster. Friendster is so fucking gay. I actually can’t stand Friendster yet i’m a member. It’s stupid.
It’s kind of like my dislike for Hilary Duff. I hate her yet i’d still do her.
Love/Hate relationships are funny that way.
I gotta tell ya, UrbanDictionary.com, fucking rules. I love that site. It provides endless amounts of amusement. I find myself just entering random words in there just to see what people think they mean.
Like with friendster:
friendster
service where thousands and thousands of people get together to collectivly kiss each other’s ass and gush about how great they are
i may be lonely now, but on friendster i have 708934 friends!!!!!!!
Or Xbox:
XBox
One fat-ass doorstop.
XBox? Mo like FRIDGE BOX!
Or SOCOM 2. Which i happen to play all the time.
Socom
An Playstation Online game that is good to play with friends. Is fun when you aren’t in a room with homo’s who are concerned about rank and don’t want to be TK’d. Third best birth control device behind the pill and Everquest.
I own you in some fucking Socom.
Hell, there’s even a definition for Keli in there!
