Film.
It's time for me to see a horror movie in theaters! Five movies have already been released and I haven't seen a single one! Not good. What kind of scary-movie fanatic am I? A bad one! I really really want to see some of the movies, not necessarily horror movies alone, coming up soon in 2009; they really do look promising. No lie. Take a look:
The Top 5 Nicky B-approved Upcoming Movies
1. The Last House On The Left
In theaters: Currently
Okay. So this is going to be the first scary one of the year. Plus, it looks promising, it really does! The Last House On The Left is the story of the revenge parents seek on a group of strangers who take shelter in their house, these strangers of course have shot their daughter and left her for dead. "If bad people hurt someone you love, how far would you go to hurt them back?", asks the trailer. I don't know. I find the whole storyline intriguing and think that it should be a pretty interesting movie that is probably more realistic than Friday The 13th or The Unborn.
2. 500 Days of Summer
In theaters: July 17, 2009
It's not the story of how love is found. It's the story about how love is found, and lost. Something about the trailer immediately grabbed my attention and would not let it go. I'm interested. I want to see the story of Summer and Tom. It looks funny. Sweet. Genuine. Something you can relate to. All of which make it something for Nicky B to see.
3. Sunshine Cleaning
In theaters: Currently
Something that looks fresh and new. A comedy about two sisters(?) who begin a crime scene clean-up service to rake in some dough. The story follows the triumphs, the rough times, and the people they meet as they work to create a brighter future for the entire family. It looks heart-warming and fun, so it's a go.
4. Tokyo!
In theaters: 3/18, 3/20
Part of the Sundance + Asian American Film Festival this film is going to be a rarity so I hope I can try to grab some tickets and see it this Friday with some friends (Who wants to go?!) The film looks crazy, zany, and just fun! It offers a portrait of Japan's famous city brought to us by three equally crazy directors. "Shaking Tokyo follows the story if a man who leaves his apartment for the first time in 11 years after falling in love with the pizza delivery girl who's covered in mystical tattoos", says the SF Guardian. That sounds interesting enough to make me want to go, but wait, there is even more. The story of 'Merde' follows a hermit who pops out of the sewers to embark on a havoc-creating attack. Yikes! And lastly there is 'Interior Design' a depiction of a women who is tired of fighting life in the city and decides to become a chair. Yes, a chair. Sounds cool. Let's go. Call me.
5. Adventureland
In theaters: April 3rd, 200
Because I like those Juno and Superbad-esque movies. They make me smile. Just like this one should. I don't know why I like them so much. I just do. Plus Kirsten Stewart is in it and I like her so far because she fits well into that mold of actors that are kinda geeky and abnormal.
So there ya go! They aren't exactly movies to 'look forward to' because three of them are out right now. But they're movies I want to see and that's all that's important right!?!? Right!?
Television
What else is there to speak of you ask? Well. Let's speak of my favorite new TV show! Weeds! It's hilarious. Witty. Smart. Sarcastic. Something that is again similar to Juno and Superbad really! I don't know. But really, you should check it! Watch the first two seasons on Netflix Online for free! I've just started Season 2 and can't wait to finish it all. It's a show I genuinely like. What can I say?
I have realized I don't really 'watch' TV. I simply leave the TV on while I'm doing homework or cleaning my room or looking at Facebook. Not too good a habit with all that energy being wasted and all. Yikes.
Music
I've begun listening to more of a 'chillout' type of music. Rock bands and power-punk groups pushed aside, I've realized I'm beginning to like tunes that are mellow, yet powerful. Don't get me wrong, I'll still love dancing to Black Kids and Calvin Harris it's just that I've never realized how enjoyable chill music can be. Especially when you just want to be put in a chill mood.
CheckitOUT:
The Youth - MGMT
As Tall As Cliffs - Not Animal
Oxford Comma - Vampire Weekend
Dramamine - Modest Mouse

Good songs for stressful days. Good songs for bus taking. Good songs for homework. Good songs for forgetting about life. Good songs for everybody. Yay!

Wo
w. I have found something super cool on my friend's blog. Check out Derek's blog and find out about more cool events. This one was just calling me though, SF Zombie Swarm. How amazing is that? Ah! Pictures galore. That is what I will do if I find the time and somebody to go with. Take pictures galore!!! Crazy. Check their website for more info. + Imagine it. When will you ever see something remotely similar?
I need to keep writing my book. But It has been hella crazy lately. That's what summer is for. Reading, writing, hanging with friends, and all that stuff you do in the sun. So. I will finish it over summer! Yes. And if I have time on a weekend I will write it over the weekend! That's a plus. But no promises! Haha. Life has been hectic. Very hectic. My math class is killing me. And I have to memorize 42 Japanese Prefectures tonight. Yes, yes, lucky me.
Oh! I've decided to start my film-making career off! That means. I'm think I'll make a documentary about four kids at Lowell. Not this year. Probably next. I can see it now! Ahh. Greatness. I have to decide whose lives to follow still. I need interesting people, and stressed people, and people who wouldn't mind being followed by a camera for a month or so. Yessss. Plus I'm gonna have Kris make a LIVE SHOW on stickam with me. It's boutta be crackinnnn'! Ahh. I'm talking nonsense.
Okay. I don't really want to stay up until 3 am all week again so I'm going to start reviewing Catcher In The Rye and memorizing those prefectures...after my bagel.
I'll write again soon.
