30 down! Who the hell knows how many to go...
So far 2012 has been a pretty good year for films. A much better start than 2011.
And things will only improve… starting this friday with Cabin in the Woods!

Ever since I posted that poster of Sound of My Voice, I haven’t really understand why a lot of people seem to be jizzing all over that film. It’s like there is this universal excitement for this film that could not figure out. But after watching the trailer just now… well… HOLY FUCK.
Sound of My Voice looks so fucking amazing! Besides being intriguing and awesome in every way, after watching the trailer I got a real sense that this might be one of the best films of the year. It’s the same feeling I got when I saw the teaser trailer for Prometheus. And Brit Marling… dear God, what is it with this woman? Every time I hear her voice my whole being completely shuts down and I am unnaturally enamoured. I honestly have never seen a more endearing person. Yes, she is beautiful and an amazing actress but there is something about her voice and the kinda vibe she exudes… I don’t understand it but I love it.
I can’t wait to see this film!

It would be nice to say I haven’t been on tumblr because I’ve been extremely busy with school work, but the truth is I’ve been busy taking back Earth. For the past three days straight I’ve been drenched in politics, back-stabbing, deaths and all in the most epic game I’ve ever played. Mass Effect 3 is just too amazing and intense. That ending… one of the best endings of anything I’ve ever experienced. Since it’s monday, things will return as usual… for the most part.
As a side-note, I did not see John Carter on friday unfortunately. In the screening I went to the film was dubbed in french much to my surprise and overall dread. Am disappointed the film under- performed (to say it nicely) at the box office but I guess that was bound happen. Hopefully it’s good and people will spread the word. At any case, I’m watching John Carter (in english) later today and I’ll have a review up tonight.
Have a nice day everyone, adios!

I finished David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas a couple of days ago and I loved every word of it. Suffice to say that Cloud Atlas is a masterpiece and I was so blown away by it that I decided to buy another of Mitchell’s books. What really impresses me about his writing style is that he is able to make you care about the character and the story from the first page. That level of immediate engagement is hard to find and even though I’m only 10 pages into Number9Dream I’m already loving it.

I bought this issue of Little White Lies a while back and didn’t read it until a few days ago during my flight. That was the first time I’ve read this magazine and I am so in love it now. It is so amazing and I love how they focus on one film and explore all the various elements that make that film great. This issue further fuelled my love for Drive and I think I might subscribe from now on. I feel like next year there will be a issue for The Dark Knight Rises and I need to have it.

If you’ve followed me long enough, you might know I go through different ordeals every time I travel. Maybe it’s because I dread flying, but random shit seems to always gravitate towards me. This time around things weren’t as bad as they’ve been before oddly enough. The only weird thing that happened was during the plane landing to Toronto.
You know the “kick” that was so perfectly explained in Inception? Well I felt asleep just as we were landing and the kick happened and I woke up in the most exaggerated abrupt way. I don’t know what I was dreaming, but my sudden jolt scared the shit of the woman sitting next to me to such a point that she screamed. Not mild scream, I’m talking about “horror film girl about to get decapitated by leatherface” scream that even silenced the baby who cried for an hour straight.
You’d think the other passengers would panic but no one did. The flight attendant came and asked us what happened. I apologized and explained I woke up suddenly with a Inception-style kick and that the faster we forget about this the faster my embarrassment would subside. Unable to be discreet, the flight attendant laughed and went on. God, I’m such a magnet of embarrassing moments.
As a side-note, while that baby was making our ears bleed for two hours straight I thought to myself: how can we prevent children from crying in airplanes without physically harming them? A state regulated drug that would put babies to sleep as soon as they boarded a plane came to mind. But what if we simply section off a part of the plane where only babies and their parents are allowed? This section would also be sound proof. Would that work? I think it’s an idea worth considering. It certainly would make flying less of an agonizing pain in the ass.
Anyway, I seriously need to get some sleep. Good night!
