I’m still alive!

Sunday, April 18th, 2010

I haven’t updated this in a while, I know, and I feel TERRIBLE.

I have to review Clash of the Titans and Kick-Ass, hopefully I will get at least one of those up by tomorrow night. I’ve just been busy with life and everything else and its just been a hectic couple of weeks….but I’ll definitely get on to this soon :)

Bear with me!

Twilight Rant

Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010

Good god. I just saw this limited edition Twilight New Moon DVD cover and HAD to make a post about it. Because it is THAT WORTHY OF ANOTHER ANGER FUELED RANT.

So, can anyone see anything wrong with this cover?

What’s that?

EVERYTHING is wrong with this cover?

FIRST OF ALL. Why does Kristen Stewart always have that really disguted ‘ugh Im too good for anyone’ look on her face. CAN ANYONE ANSWER ME THIS because every SINGLE TIME I see a promo picture for Twilight related merch, I always see her face and think ’she needs a happy pill!’

Also, why does Edward Cullen look so disdainful and emo? I don’t know if its the really generic stereotypes being forced onto the actors here, but the facial expressions on this DVD cover seems to sum it all up in one image: even the actors ar disgusted at how disgustingly foul Twilight is.

Even Taylor Lautner’s fail attempt at ‘glowering’ doesn’t really cut through the layers of disgustingness.

ANYWAY. Enough of Twilight.

I saw Girl with a Dragon Tattoo last week, and while I did enjoy the female lead……..it really didn’t live up to the reviews I read about it! I’ll post my full review sometime later this week, but yeah….kind of disappointed actually.

Also, I saw Pi on Sunday, and I have to say it is a really amazing film. Pretty much reinforced my belief Darren Aronofsky is a-ma-zing. Can’t wait for Black Swan now!

I was in the zone…

…and I finally updated the layout!

Okay, so I kinda cheated and used an old layout. But hey, its not like anyone will ever know, considering elusionerie.com isn’t online anymore!!

I felt the inspiration tonight and just did stuff…….no idea why the favicon isn’t showing up though. But I’m too tired to fix that up now.

I was actually supposed to do this rough cut of this CTV project I’m working on in IMOVIE of all applications…but yeah. I couldn’t stop working on this til I had it right!

So yeah, just thought I’d update you all.

Oh, also, if you didn’t realize the header is supposed to be like lightning bolt french fries. I know, it’s kinda hard to make out but I TRIED MY BEST. I’m very rusty with Illustrator. I have to say though, compared to After Effects, Illustrator is a breeze……..

Anyway, I should get some sleep. Spending the whole day at IKEA tomorrow, JOY. :(

The start of something new…

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

I’m sick of pandering around.

I’m sick of being lazy.

I’m sick of wasting time on facebook and msn and doing absolutely nothing productive!

Which is why I have a new project for 2010. And no, it won’t be a billion and one side projects like Elusionerie(that is a whole other story). This will be even more awesome. Because it will be fun AND productive at the same time!

I am starting a review blog. Mostly movies, but I may review books too, on the occasion I feel compelled to write one.

But yes, the plan is, to write lots of movie reviews. Current, old, new, whatever takes my fancy. I’m aiming for maybe 2 or 3 a week???

I’m just trying to write better and develop some sense of writing style…because I haven’t written anything in ages and I don’t want to lose that.

So yeah. Help cheer me on fellow movie enthusiasts. I want to hear your opinions and reviews too!!!

I just hope this lasts longer than a week. :D
