please please please let me get what iI want

Last night I went to the Zoo for the first time (yeah, i've lived in the Village for 1 year and haven't been yet) to see my buddies TJ and Mattihalica's band COOKSON HILLS for the first time. Turbo J's on stage energy is on par with that of.....I'm not sure he's in his own league. Anyways downed afew pints there and lwent Walter and Alicia's to have a jam session on Rock Band. Let me just say this right now Guitar Hero is history and Rock Band is clearly a superior game on all levels! Thanks to Walter, Alicia and Bailey for the new/old water cooler for the house!

Two sleep left and the apparent most important day in the universe is here, thank god. This year in the retail industry has been fuckin' nuts and people love spending money more than ever on shit no one needs. Regardless Christmas is a nice time to just chill the fuck out and have a great time with your friends and family, just spread some cheer. Unfortunately this will be the first year I won't be able to see my mum and dad for the holidays which is a bummer. Regardless I'm still going to eat as much food a possible and enjoy time with my cousins, aunts and uncle.


anyways here's a little present

my biggest regret of 07...

missing this madness...


oh this one too....

keep on keepin' on

now that I've finally see the three films I wanted to see most this year; Control, This Is England, & Electroma. The first two candidates (aka obsessions) are The Dark Knight & What We Do Is Secret.

The Dark Knight is the sequel to the hugely successful Batman Begins (in my opinion the best comic to movie film since Batman directed by Tim Burton). The brand new trailer launched sunday night at http://atasteforthetheatrical.com/. But here is is for all its youtube glory (I think it speaks mostly for itself)


As for "What We Do Is Secret" well to put it bluntly it's the biopic of Darby Crash and the Germs staring Shane West (famous for his role in A Walk To Remember) playing Darby.

And say she's lost control again

Despite the critical acclaim and awards Anton Corbijn's newest (and first) film titled "Control" has not made it's way to any big screens in the city of Winnipeg. But last night I had a private viewing of a pirated version on my lap top. I can't begin to express how excited I've been to see this film seeing as Joy Division has been one of the most important bands in my life for many years. There is a lot to be said about this film which can be found in a number of international Film & Music media outlets. But take my word for it this is the best film of the year in my opinion. Lead by a great cast whom take the roles of a few of the greatest minds in independent music during the late 70's and early '80s such as Ian Curtis, Bernard Sumner, and Tony Wilson. It is as much a story about the music and the accomplishments Joy Division reached as it is about the love and abandonment of love between Ian, his wife Debbie and his Belgian mistress Anik. Word has it the dvd release will be February '08 but I hope I can see this on a bigger screen before that date closes in.

here's a taste for you...

And with that we usher in a new age of bloggage. This is maybe my 2nd or 3rd time up at the plate but I'm hoping the turn this one out. Please continue to stop by and keep on my ass to stay updated. I'll try to live a relativly informant life.

ROBOT, HUMAN

To sum things up quickly.
daft punk's film "Electroma" had a mightnight showing for one time only at the Globe Cinema on Friday, December 7th. It's completely void of any dialogue and has a great soundtrack (including a perfectly choose "I Want To Be Alone" by Jackson C Frank for the last scene). Bangalter from Daft was the cinematographer and personally I think his studying payed off cause there are some really amazing shots in the film. Anyways word is Vice releases the DVD in January 2008. If you are into the Daft Punk schtick (like I AM) this is right up your alley.
