Recently I've decided to finally watch Perfect Blue. Yes, it's an old anime but I've also heard some good things about that stands out from other anime.
I have to say this is difficult to sit through, but at the same time I wished I've seen this earlier. There's something about that anime that reminds me that not all anime is flashy and bombastic like the most of them, instead it's subtle and creepy. Just how I like my anime and films.
Anyway, what other stuff you've been watching lately?

A Game of Thrones, which i can safely say is the first fantasy serial on tv that does NOT suck. Next to Hercules and Xena.

Ditto, Gorvar. Watching the new episode as we speak.

Sports (hockey and basketball right now). I don't have the attention span for anything else on TV anymore.

Finished watching DOA. No, it doesn't stand for "Dead or Alive". It's stands for "Dead on Arrival". It's an old film Noire made in the 40s.
Damn, that's some good old fashion Noir film.

I've been watching V. Yes, I'm a hopeless sci-fi nerd.

I've been slowly watching the second season of Stargate Universe. I haven't liked a show this much in a long while, and they cancelled it, so I'm not looking forward to that last episode... which is apparently a cliffhanger. -.-

I hear you, I hate cliffhangers, especially in TV series.
Planning to get LA Confidential tomorrow and scouring for more really old school Noir films on the internet.

In my country, they actually cancelled the alst episode o Reboot because it ended on a cliffhanger while the previous episode ended on a happy note. Same goes with the Starship Troopers: The roughneck chronicles.

La Confidential is good. So is Chinatown. For actual Noire films, you can't go wrong with "Double Indemnity" There are others I really like, but those are the ones stuck in my head.

Hmmm... I heard good things about Chinatown and I've never heard for Double Indemnity before, so I'll be going to check those out too. If I have some spare cash, I'll check to see if they have Glinda in stock. I saw Rita Hayworth performance in the "Put the blame on Mame" on youtube and sounds fantastic.

Lately I've been watching Firefly. Say what you want with Joss Whedon, but he had something going until it got cancelled for some BS reason.

Tis a good show!
When you're caught up, go back and read Tali's recruitment chapter again. There are some Firefly gags!
