Re: WE ARE THE WORLD
Vince Vaughn being present isn't any stranger than Dan Ackroyd being there the first time around. Maybe this is just the kind of song that calls for the presence of a random comedic actor?

Re: Yaguchi becomes the Parmesan Fairy~
For some reason it felt like I was watching Nozomi in that clip, and I had to keep reminding myself that it was actually Mari.

Re: Ted Kennedy, 77, Dies After Lengthy Illness
It is amazing that it didn't cost him his political career, and I think if something similar happened to a politician today, it would, regardless of how much weight his name carried. Frankly, I for one am glad that Ted Kennedy's career continued for another 40 years, because I feel strongly that the...

Re: Watchmen
I don't need it to be like the comic. I've seen enough adaptions of books I read to know that everything can't translate to screen. But a lot of fans who loved the original (including myself) did need it to be like the comic. We've seen enough of our favorite works raped and pillaged in the name of...

Re: Watchmen
Saw the Watchmen this weekend, and absolutely loved it. I was a big fan of the comic, and the move is a very faithful adaptation, both in story and in imagery. I see that it's been getting mixed reviews, and it seems like quite a few people completely hated it. I'm not really surprised, this sort of...

Re: Anime Expo® Announces Morning Musume As First Official Guests Of Honor For 2009 Convention In Los Angeles
There was a time I would have been pretty damn excited about them coming to LA and would have been been there in a hearbeat to see them. Now I'm not sure how I feel. I have to echo's Geoff's "why didn't they do this when I cared?" Still, my wife and I talk about going to Anime Expo every y...
