Tati & Ludo --> "The phrase "Chasing Cars" came from Lightbody's Father, in reference to a girl Lightbody was infatuated with, "You're like a dog chasing a car, You'll never catch it and you wouldn't know what to do with it if you did." Here's the link.

Movie update! Today I finally watched Over The Hedge: I saw the trailer a couple of months ago, and I thought it looked like a funny movie, but I was so wrong. Besides being boring like hell, it was sooo predictable. I can't believe they spent three years making such a boring and useless movie! =_= The only funny character was the squirrel, and it was copied and pasted from Hoodwinked. That was quite a stupid movie too, but that's not the point. ;) I also saw Scrooged for the very first time, and I liked it. Well, most of all I liked Bill Murray in it. ^^ What I didn't get is how he suddenly becomes a good guy after meeting the Ghost of Christmas Future. I've read the novel a billion times, and I remember that Scrooge starts changing after meeting the first ghost, and after the second ghost leaves he's already a good guy. The third ghost only gives him the feeling he can have a second chance, as he's not dead yet he still can do something about his life. But in this movie he keeps being the same ol' bastard even after meeting the second ghost (who was my favourite one, by the way: look! A toaster!), and after being almost burned alive by the third ghost he simply gets scared. So, the character development seemed a little off, but other than that I liked it a lot.

Ho anche avuto il fegato di provare a vedere Notte prima degli esami. Deve essere stato un momento di follia, perchè, santo dio, è persino peggiore di quanto mi aspettassi. Come recitano... neanche al livello da recita scolastica! La sceneggiatura è penosa, la storia prevedibilissima... unica nota positiva, per cui non l'ho mollato dopo 5 minuti, è la colonna sonora. Essendo ambientato nell'89, mi sono goduta tutta una serie di classici anni '80, che bello! Soprattutto un'intera sequenza con Don't Stop Me Now dei Queen! \o/

And yesterday I also noticed how I mistook the band Cabaret Voltaire for the singer Voltaire. Man, I have to tidy up my music folder on my hard-drive, that's beyond embarassing...

Oh, the moon was full
And the color of blood
The night the pirates came
To the Vampire Club
Their leader was tall and snide and slim
He looked like a gay Captain Morgan
Well, he recognized a Vampire
From his school
And he did something that was
Most uncool, he said,
"Hey everybody, see that fool in the cape?"
His name's Bernie Weinstein
And he's in the 8th grade!"

Fangs were flying, capes were torn
Hell hath no fury like a Vampire scorned
The number one rule in this game:
Never call one by his real name
Wigs were pulled, top hats were crushed
By pointy boots in a rush
And Boris at the bar orders a Bud and says,
"It's just another night at the Vampire Club."

Missi lost a fang in the ladies room
And we all laughed and called her 'Snaggletooth!"
And Dee was mad cause he broke his cane
And he flushed his contacts down the drain
There was so much angst after the fight
Vlad and Akasha broke up that night
While some rivet-heads danced in a puddle of goo
That used to be "Father" you-know-who!

Well, it's hard to believe but we're still around
And when we hang out it's upside down
Dressed in black from toe to head singing,
"Bela Lugosi's still undead!"
A gaggle of goths is a peaceful site
We'd do anything to avoid a fight
But if you really want to see some gore and blood
Wait 'til the Ravers come to the Vampire Club


Just to celebrate this week's Tsubasa chapter. ;) *I want the scans!*

I actually liked Over The Hedge. Well, maybe because the O.S.T. is exactly what I like. *lol* And the squirrel has got Ralf Schmitz as voice actor, he's my favourite comedian ... I was probably biased. But he's so cute when he says "Aber... ich mag den Keks!" - so whiny! XD It's really not a very good movie, but at certain points it's really nice.

Scrooged is one of my favourite Christmas movies! The toaster scene is hilarious. Yet without Bill Murray it wouldn't be that good, I think. ^_^"

Everytime the Ghost hit him I was on the floor laughing, she was so funny! XD

I like Voltaire's tunes. The boy should stick to music though, he CANNOT draw.

I read he made cartoons as well, but I never saw one... he worked for mtv too, right?

Ah, grazie mille! Così me lo vedo anche doppiato (certo che la voce originale di Bill Murray è bellissima! Meno male, ho ancora un bel trauma dopo aver sentito quella di Michael Caine... brrr)
