Japanese movies '09

Saturday, Jun 13, 2009 4:30AM / Standard Entry

Finally i was able to watch "クローズZEROⅡ"
It's one of my favourite movies, i was waiting for the second part since they started filming it..in summer. Abviously most people think that sequels are not a good idea, BUT not with this movie! Everyone who loves "Crows Zero" manga & movie gonna love it. Besides it's an 小栗旬 movie, so it can't be bad for the box office? I mean people gonna watch it anyways. 小栗旬 is like a "new" mascout for everything..i didn't think it would last so LONG. His CM's are pretty good though, i love his cellphone CM's! especially the one when he had to dress like an actress (^__^)
However, i think 山田孝之 should finally cut his hair & shave! i know he had to go with the "binbo look" coz' of the movies..but it's done, he should really cut his hair? (o_O)
I'm a little dissapointed that 黒木メイサ & Miura Haruma appeared on screen 3 times (O_O)?? Seems like it is true..all the good moments are gonna be used for the trailer:)

"Crows Zero" Black Premiere

Another movie I'm about to watch is "GOEMON" it's a must see for Kiriya fans & those who liked "CASSHERN"!!! I really like Kazuaki Kiriya's movies, they remind of "Star Wars" but..better?! Although i love Star Wars (i've seen it 100 times) but his movies are..just different, i think only a Japanese person/director can shoot a movie from that perspective. It has those Asian elements Hollywood will never have. The way he puts Asian & Western things together is very inteersting. The fact that the cast had to go into fightting training for 6 months is actually unsual for Japan, isn't it? And the cast is great (^__^) Basically "CASSHERN" cast is back again, plus more great actors:)

ALOHA!

Korean teenagers & uni students are amazing! (^0^) Like some people say "1st: u have to study, study & study. 2. be a devoted fangirl/fanboy" Basically everyone knows that Koreans love to dance...since the whole word saw those 100000000000.. "TELL ME", "SO HOT" & etc. videos - even military, flight attendants, policemen & teachers filmed themselves dancing to "Tell Me" o(^__^)o

I saw this "Sorry Sorry" (by Super Junior) video a couple of days ago. Seems like Korean unis are so much fun~ They just dance in front of the entrance! When i was watching this, i noticed that one of the girls on the right is wearing a costume pretty similar to After Schools "DIVA" stage outfits..so i guess many students were performing various songs?..
Compared to that my uni is so boring (=_=)... u can't just say it's coz' i'm in a law school..europeans would never do stuff like that, they hate karaoke..I just don't get them, how could u hate karaoke, karaoke box are LOVE!:) Maybe i became too Japanesy?
Anyway, when i go to karaoke with my friends sometimes we would dance like that too...Korean Pop culture has influence on us as well (^_~)

These high school girls have so many videos..seems like they're using their calssroom for filming more than for classes:)

Last week:

i went to my friends "okomiyaki party"
i love "takoyaki" & "okonomiyaki" however i never make them myself...(o_O)...
the best thing was that i'm friends with girls from Kanzai & as u might know the best "okonomiyaki" is from Kanzai & Hiroshima. So all 3 of my girlfriends were cooking & it was so delicious~! It was a "Japanese only party", i met some of friends friends.. some of them were just visiting & some were exchange students..
Yesterday, when when i was talking to my friends about the party one of my friends asked me "but what were u doing there? ur not Japanese" Hmmm... no idea, my Japanese friends just invite me to these kind of parties.. On my way home, when i was walking down the street with some of the guests..all of a sudden 2 of them asked me "do your parents still live in Tokyo?" (O_O).. Sometimes i have a feeling eventhough u talk to people & u get the impession that they're listening to u..they DON'T! (>_<)...

I've been back home for a week now?...
So, for "easter holidays" (no, i don't celebrate easter i'm a muslim - it's just everyone here has so called easter holidays) i went to Germany & Paris o(^__^)o
Officially my holidays aren't over yet..they gonna be over tomorrow (=_=)...

Anyways, it's amazing how different the weather is! When i left Vienna it was ca. +8 & guess what it was +25 in Germany (O_O)... I was thinking "what am i supposed to do with my warm clothes?" Then when i went to Paris, it was COLD again & it was raining (>_<).. Although I can't really complain about Paris this time. It wasn't HOT which is great, coz' usually u gonna die in Paris during summer! Why? NO AIRCONS!!! and it's too crowded, but during spring it's OK:)
I was shopping a LOT hahaha (^0^) Basically i went to Paris for shopping like I always do, coz' I've been there so many times..I don't wanna go to the same museums. Unless they have some new exhabitions. But indeed I went to LOUVRE on sunday, which was a big mistake? Kind of, it was very crowded, coz' 1st sunday of the month's FREE ENTRY! U can imagine what that means right (O_O)... It was fun though, some tourist decided to undress right in front of the Mona Lisa & the guards had to stop them (^__^) Everyone was watching them instead of Mona Lisa...

Düsseldorf & Cologne were nice too, I met some of my friends for karaoke. They have Japanese & Korean karaoke there, isn't that amazing! And I was speaking Japanese the entire time..i had a feeling I was back to Japan for 1 day (o_O)? It's weird that people speak in Japanese to me, eventhough I'm not..but they always think I am.. Like 2 days ago, I met 4 of my Japanese friends & one of them brought her friend, who's just visiting for a couple of days & she though I'm "hafu" :) When she was saying something like "it's hard for foreigners to study Kanji..." I said "yes! unless they're Chinese or Korean. But it's ok for me" She looked at me & said "why? ur Japanese..." that was funny!

Now, I have to start with planing summer vacation (=_=)... Before I go back to Japan I will be going on family vacation & then I have to make plans with my friends in Japan. Hopefully this time I gonna have enough time to meet everyone.. Otherwise I'm always feeling guilty coz' I didn't have time to meet up with them.
However before that i gonna have exams! I'm not in a "study hard mood" but i have to do this..がんばります~♪

Tomorrow is Kazakh NEW YEAR! When I tell ppl what our New Year is on March 22, they're chocked.. Actually it's pretty easy, New Year starts with Spring, new Life - which is supposed to start in spring o(^_^)o
Although, it supposed to be warm & sunny..it's NOT! It's very windy & super cold here (o_O)... I can't wait for "real spring", it seems like this winter won't ever end...

I don't know, but my cellphone & my camera look like that (^__^) seems like everything should be きらきら (^0^)

Easter break gonna start soon..and I'm supposed to go somewhere for vacation, but it's really hard to decide where (=_=)... There are so many places I could go & I can't decide, sometimes I think it would be easier if I would just have 1 choice.

This year a couple of my friends quit law school, coz' they said it's too hard..but we've been studying together for 3,5 years. I was a lil' shocked, when they told me that. I think it's a shame that so many young people gave up on things so easily... I think when u started something u shouldn't stop until u bring it to the end..on the other hand if ur really not interested in the thing ur doing u should stop before u start hating it. Making decisions is hard..especially when it will effect ur entire life & carrier. I'm just hoping they won't regret it later.

"Ooo i've been traveling on this road too long,
Just trying to find my way back home,
The old me is dead & gone, dead & gone

I turn my head to the east I dont see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the west still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the north, swallow that pill that they call pride
The old me is dead and gone, the new me will be alright
I turn my head to the east I dont see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the west still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the north, swallow that pill that they call pride
The old me is dead and gone, the new me will be alright"
