full weekend

[ audio selection | diesel boy – the descent ]

its a monday morning, and my minds still not exactly firing on all pistons. im actually writing this additional intro after having written the majority of the post already, rereading what i wrote, and realizing its absolute shit. *shrug*

not only did last week seem to fly right by, but the weekend did as well. i think it was the first weekend in a very very very long time where i went out 3 days in a row. thats like, wow. ooh, and i watched two movies…constantine (rock!) and kung-fu hustle (fuckin’ rock!). i grabbed foodies friday nite at yakiniku with sally, then taiwanese drinks at jennys cafe. yum. satty was a late din with marisol and crew at oh! taisho, and sunday was an ikea run and foodage with margie, who i hadnt seen in months…craziness. so now i have an un-made billy bookshelf sitting in my hallway, which i will most likely put off assembling til tomorrow.

so back to the aforementioned movies. firstly, constantine is not for everybody. it takes artistic liberties with its religious subject matter, which could upset certain people. and its definitely not everyday you see an angel tell you that “you’re fucked”. that scene btw, rocked. keanu reeves was definitely rockin’ as constantine…snarky little fuck. and while he will never be the sting-esque brit constantine people want him to be, hes still a damn good constantine. so go see it damnit…gogogo! a bag of shit movie like hitch should never be making more money.

next up is the kung-fu goodness that is kung-fu hustle. it rocks…go get it on dvd, or wait til march when it comes out here…then see it in the theaters. this movie is some hawtness…stephen chow and his crew of regulars, with the addition of yuen woo pings fight choreography. just go see it. im gonna drink my coffee.
