In the shape of a heart;

I have decided that the "Prettiest Lips of All Time Award" goes to:

Clara Bow

Exceedingly random topic... but they're so prettily heart-shaped that not admiring them would be quite difficult...

and, no. It's not how she's contoured her lipstick, it is her natural lip shape. Visit Wikipedia, bitches.

Anyway, I know how much you've all missed me and my obsessive compulsive posting disorder, but the truth is... the words normal life and school just don't go into the same sentence anymore. So please munchkins, bare with me.

Over and out,

Sharlto Copley...

... is officially my new (dream) lover.


Now, if you haven't seen District 9, you probably haven't heard of this little blessing to the art of acting. He may not be hot or handsome in that irritating conventional sense, but the guy improvised his whole role in that monument of a film.

I M P R O V I S E D... his whole bloody role.

and he was pretty brilliant to top it off, so that alone makes this man sex on legs. Not to mention that he's South African, so the accent makes him even more adorable. Anyway, I firmly believe that this film, and specifically this actor, were both robbed of well deserved Oscars. I personally thought that D9 knocked Avatar into frilly cotton socks. 'Twas much better made, and ten times more original as well as innovative.

Favourite line of the film: "I Would Neva Have any kind of Pornographic Activity With a-a- Fokkin' Creature!"

LOL! The guy is class, and if you happen to miss him in District 9, fear not, for he shall be starring in the remake of the famous 80's tv show The A-Team. Not a big fan of it myself, but I feel obliged to see it since our dear Sharlto plays a significant role.

Thanks for reading! Over and out,

MV of the week;

Second post today! I should really be studying, but I just can't concentrate... Sucks to be me, huh?

Anyway, as promised before, I have finally decided to post my MV of the week and, let me tell you, it was quite a tough choice, as I had three pretty sensational vids to pick from... all made by the same user. DUN, DUN, DUN.

Okay, well, the user who's video I have chosen to review this week is named catemonster and she(?) vids quite a variety of fandoms, including the likes of Lost, Harry Potter, Final Fantasy and many others. She's also an exceedingly skilled editor and to watch her videos is quite a delight for me.

Okay, so, the MV I have chosen out of all of catemonster's splendid works is an... INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS fanvid!

As a few of you may know, I fell in love with this film after watching it! It was just so delightfully Tarantino. Violence, gore, black comedy, ingenious dialogue and not to mention that it's the guy's first war film EVAR. But, anyway, in a nutshell: Quentin did good. He did damn good... as he usually does.

Well... back to the video: I sincerely apologise to those who want to see an MV purely made for the film, as it's not really a tribute to the film itself but more so, one of the characters. So... can you guess which character?

No, you love-blinded, fan-girlish twats, it's not Brad Pitt... It's Colonel Hans Landa! Who you ask? You know, the evil, S-S, Jew-hunting man who kept chugging milk. Yeah, that guy.

Landa has been described by Tarantino as probably the best character he's ever written, which is kind of cool, as he is my favourite character in the film... besides Shoshanna, she's also pretty likeable.

This MV's purpose (I think) is to bring to life the character of Landa in a sort of satirical and ironic manner, yet at the same time, keep it quite relevent to the film's plotline and the original eccentric nature of the character. The vid's concept really isn't all that hard. All you have to do is follow the song's lyrics (which match his demeanour quite well) and you'll figure out what the user is aiming to acheive... which is pretty much presenting the greif Landa brings to our Basterdised heroes.

Anyway, onto a more technical note, the MV is rather rad as it shows the two sides of Landa through the colouring (well, that's how I interpret it). Full colour signifies Landa's persona from the outside, which is the charming, yet slightly quirky colonel. This is in contrast with the grayscale tone, which symbolises Landa's true identity as actually being a blood thirsty, psychotic and murdering scum... who also happens to be a Nazi.

The song is also an epicly epic addition to the video's... epicness. Gives You Hell by The All American Rejects is pretty much about, yep, you guessed, making someone's life hell. Examples of the song's cohesion with the film's plot, is the fact that characters such as Shoshanna experience hell everytime they see Landa. Plus, these lyrics, I think, really go well with his character: But truth be told; I miss you. And truth be told; I'm lying. I firmly believe that that phrase catches Landa's different persepectives wonderfully!

Anyway, I give this vid 4.5 out of 5, due to the fact that I didn't really have much to write about it and that it is pretty short... But overall, a very well-made MV, which presents to the viewer a great description of Landa's character without entirely spoiling the film. I personally thought that Christoph Waltz played this character to perfection and that he definitely did not have the right to look that sexy as a middle-aged Nazi. Overall, I hope Waltz wins the Oscar on Monday and... here is the MV for your own viewing:


Anyway, thanks for reading and wish me luck in my exams! Over and out,

Jeffree is a Star;

I'm not really into the whole scene/emo kid crap.



BUT I do admit that Jeffree Star is an epic babe:


Isn't she absolutely stunning?
All her Hello Kitty and Gloomy Bear merchandise is on my wishlist.

Anyway, MV of the week blog shall be posted later today.

Audrey Hepburn;

Yes, you fads. She deserves a post of her own:


Aren't Audrey and Gregory just the cutest? I think they should've made babies.
Anyway, Audrey Hepburn is pretty much my idol in every single way. She's poised, she's elegant, she's got a fabulous fashion sense and she's a rather decent actress. To be honest, it's not really her acting that makes me love her with such a depth, as I admittedly think that actresses such as Vivien Leigh, Bette Davis and Katherine Hepburn are far more superior. BUT, I still firmly believe she's a great actress and I don't think they'll ever cast a better Eliza Doolittle.

Overall, it's Audrey's charm and poise which really makes her my favourite 'Golden Age' Hollywood starlet. Not to mention that she's the lead in quite a few of my favourite films (Roman Holiday, Sabrina, My Fair Lady, War and Peace, etc...).

Well, that's it from me. I'm going to go lay my head down, due to the aftermath of the english exam I just had.
Over and out,

I love him;

What a babe. He's like totally my new hero.
Now I know who Borders Guy looks like.

LOVE.
