Movie Review: Chocolate

Uma Thurman Ain't ShitI went to see Chocolate tonight. I haven't had this much fun in ages.

Years ago, these were the kinds of movies Jackie Chan and Michele Yeoh and a lot of other Hong Kong stars made. Not much plot, and not much need. Clear the decks and let the action begin.

In Thai movies, they still hit each other in fight scenes.

The most visceral part of this movie...Read more

I have 14 guitars but no children

I never wanted to have kids. I figured that if I was going to have one, I would want one more than I did, which was not at all. So I never had kids for that reason. I mean, it's one thing to not want  an ipod, but you get one because everyone else has one, and you get sick of people asking why you don't have one.

Well, too much minus the 2 hours of my life stolen by Three Kingdoms. What a waste. Ti Lung as Guan Yu and it stillsucked.

Ever been in one of those relationships where the longer you stay, you realize you like the other half less and less? It becomes more and more work not to be aggravated, or to overlook their shortcomings? What used to charm you now makes you want to puke? The other half just stops being funny, intriguing, lovable, sexy, and attractive? You find yourself feeling trapped, like you made an a...Read more

If you can read this you have too much free time

Perhaps more realistically, I should be thanking you profusely. The idea that anyone would find what I have to say worth reading is flattering...

I love living in Hong Kong for a lot of reasons. It's the greatest place I've ever lived, and I don't ever want to leave.

I am still perpetually astounded that the city's entertainment industr(ies) are so transparent. I have met more people I always wanted to meet than I ever would have thought possible.

I've even bumped ...Read more
