Happy Turkey Day + Ninja Assassin!

First of all I want to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving!!!
Eat up, sleep and repeat! KILL THEM TURKEYS!
After today I'm going to go on a diet haha.
I am thankful for:
1. Family
2. Friends
3. My girlfriend. WAH AI NI! O_O
Yaaay.

And..
I just watched Ninja Assassin last night with a few friends and I came in pretty excited because I love ninjas and assassins lol.
Korean popstar Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain! stars as an orphan adopted by a Japanese ninja clan who raises kids to become assassins.
Somewhere along the line some government agents stumble upon this secret and find out governments use the ninjas for assassinations.
Rain turns against his clan after refusing to kill an innocent victim...almost like Batman Begins...actually this movie is a lot like Batman Begins just minus the Batman and Rain actually kills people..bad people though.
I didn't expect much of a story nor substance within the film; I just wanted to see some ass blood and guts! And the film delivered in that department.
The opening sequence satisfied my expectations as to what kind of violence this movie was going to offer. A fun cameo by Sung Kang was made as well.
After that the movie slowed down a bit; introducing Rain in a brief scene...though I feel they could have introduced him in a better fashion *shrug*
The film encounters a series of flashbacks showing Rain's strict training as a child to a teen and his encounter with an orphan girl who wishes to escape.
This pretty much leads to his confrontation with his Master played by Sho Kosugi who in my opinion was the most badass motherfucker in the entire movie and his clan.
If you have no idea who Sho Kosugi is...he's like one of the pioneers of ninja movies in the 80's. I grew up watching a lot of his films..

Revenge of the Ninja!
Anyway back to the topic; then Rain teams up with Europol agent Mika(Naomie Harris, same girl who played Selena in 28 Weeks Later!) and they go on the run after the clan hunts them down.
This is your basic revenge type flick with ninjas. The acting was pretty bad, the story wasn't that engaging, and there wasn't any development between the characters.
The best aspect of the film were the fight scenes and even those were hard to keep up on because the direction was very close, shaky, and too flashy to tell what's going on. I suppose the director McTeigue(V for Vendetta) wanted to show how sneaky and fast the ninjas were but I feel that, that is never a good way to film a fight scene. The fight scenes were like Bourne/Batman Begins type fights...
But do prepare for lots of gore, slicing and dicing. The film does not fail in that department...if you want to know how gory this film really is just watch the redband trailer.


7.5/10

Lilou vs. Cloud

Clear case of tricks vs. style.
As much as I wanted Cloud to win I guess Lilou came through with more solid blowups but Cloud's creative input is on a level I cannot comprehend...so original; definitely one of my favorites ever since I started dancing.
And if you see this guy in person it's even more crazy.
I honestly think it could have went either way but oh well congrats to two wins on Lilou.
They should start scouting for some new blood; they're recycling b-boys over and over haha.





and to those people who kept shouting "LILOU!"...they need to shut the fuck up!


-EDIT-
This is why I stay off the bboyworld forums..

The funniest part was the announcer with his hip hop t-shirt and hip hop music not being used in these battles. I think I can do most of Lilous freezes he used in these battles therefore maybe I too can become a red bull bc one champion some day.

CUZ I SPIT HOT FIYAH!

Bangs is a 19 year old rap artist born in North Khartoum, Sudan. At the age of 11, he moved to Egypt with his family after his Father married another wife. He spent two years there before coming to Australia in 2003.

He has been writing rap, hip hop and pop since settling in Melbourne in 2004.

“Music is my wife”, Bangs sang in a live jam recently. He writes about life, love and hope and his music grows with him till the end of life.

He recorded his first demo “Girlfriend” in 2005 with DJ Wasabi in Collingwood, then started to lay down tracks in his home studio.

In July 2008, he recorded his first professional album at Gateway Living Music Studios, titled “Hard to be Up”. Produced by John Favaro and Paul Last name, it features the new hit single “Take U to Da Movies”.

The name “Hard To Be Up” means that he worked so hard to put the songs together to make the album.

He is constantly stretching his creative abilities, and is already working on his next album, with the working title “Am Still Moving On”.



Real shit yo!

DEAR LOSER...

This is how I'd break up with people lol

THE REAL BATMAN!

Hahahahaha.
I would probably get freaked out too if I saw that thing in a bathroom or elevator haha.

Halloween

So my Halloween didn't turn out so bad.
Everything was just last minute. I had no idea what to do that night but overall it turned out cool.
My original costume didn't happen because my lazy procrastination skills -_- so I just wore a clown mask I bought last year. It was alllll right haha.
My original concept was to be a bank robber from the 1995 film Dead Presidents.
*shrug* ANYWAY
I just went to my friend's girlfriend's house with some friends and chilled. Ate BBQ and later went Trick or Treatin'
YEAH! TAKE YO SHIT! lol
By the time we finished it wasn't too late but I was tired from all that walking and screaming.
I was supposed to go to my homie Matt's pad but I just felt too tired to drive that far. MY BAD MATT! Are you mad at me?! I'LL BUY YOU YOGURT! O_O
Anyway and that was pretty much it.

YOU CAN'T SEE ME!

PROM!!

On another note. I'm finally get around to making my designs come to life!


My first run are prototypes and a few may not have been printed to perfection but I haven't printed anything since high school so sure I'm a bit rusty hahaha. But I'm getting back into it and have plenty more to make. Yippee-AH-KAH-YAY MOTHAFUCKA!
*no biting please*

SAAAAYAH!
