Enormous Heaps of Metal

Despite the countless bad reviews for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, I went to go see it in a theater that was surprisingly packed for a 10:55PM show, and I basically got what I expected. The action was fantastic — giant glistening robots beating the crap out of each other, hell yes — and everything else was kind of paltry or mediocre. Transformers had no lack of humorous gags in it too, from marijuana brownies to a humongous robot monster with dangling balls.
At almost three hours long, this film included a lot of rather useless shots that seem to have been put in for the purposes of trying to pretend like the audience actually cared about anything other than explosions and/or Megan Fox [digression on that to come soon]. This means much time spent watching people roll around in the sand or run from Decepticons, which in my mind is ridiculous because how do you outrun a monster like that?! I would just give up and crawl in a hole.
Why Did I Fall In Love With You?

One reason I like listening to foreign music is because I can freely imagine what the lyrics say based on how the song sounds, but sometimes the actual lyrics speak my thoughts just as well.
Shoes Off In The House

Unless I’m dead tired, it’s pretty easy to make me laugh in the wee hours of the night. This is simply a delight, especially considering how repetitive and stupid the original song is [and how much I love parodies]:
Somebody spread the word, please: living with an Asian person usually means that shoes come off at the door. It hasn’t been easy these past two years at college, living with Roomie #1 and #2, who are both white and do not come from families where shoe removal is required.
I laughed at the first appearance of the two ripped guys in tank tops [0:32] — totally unexpected, and they look so serious! That definitely drew me in [yum Asian boys with big guns]. Then I could not stop laughing at 2:45 during the little interlude; such shenanigans are reminiscent of the Back Dorm Boys. The one in the black tank top [is it okay for me to call it that? I don’t like the term “wifebeater”] is really cute, which makes me happy that there are more videos! This one is also hilarious:
Their dancing/hip thrusting reduces me to LOLs every time. Also, why does the one in the grey shirt look so unnaturally orange when he eats rice?

I thought about putting this video up on my other blog, but since it’s not an official music video [the release date for that is June 3 & I’m waiting breathlessly], it belongs here instead. Besides, I’ve already blathered on and on about my love for Lady GaGa; a little more can’t hurt.
I love the faster versions of her songs as much as I admire her piano versions. GaGa’s musical talent really shines in these performances.
