Words of a Stranger

Waxing lyrical of the crappy details of my life and my views with a healthy dose of cynicism, sarcasm and everything you like about non-wholesome movies.

What is the point of forever if the answer is never?

Now I've done it. Never mind what. I'll spare you this one.

Let's get to more fun stuff.

Despite the fact that I have an upcoming presentation and exams the next week, guess what? I'm currently into LaMB, that new Animax original OVA. Not fleshed out too well, but the premise and the animation is pretty cool. The plot is great, but not too well-written. A better script would have done it.

Now I'm just waiting for Tuesday night. If this one got converted into a live movie... Oh boy, what a treat. Provided we have good actors for the role, and a good director as well. And a better script.

It helps that they had really brilliant marketing. Still do, actually. And they chose the right theme song.


Some great quotes (despite the overall poor script):
  • The future will always be beautiful (if you watch LaMB, the implication is actually really scary)
  • Everybody has regrets, whether it's things that they did, or things that they didn't.

Actually, that's all I remember. But it's still cool.


Lemme see if I can still list out my all-time favourite animes (manga not included):

Blood+
Kino's Journey
Detective School Q
Jigoku Shoujo
Jyu-Oh-Sei
