yeah I sound like a real prick in these boards I know...but in real life I'm actually very chill. No, I'm serious! That's why everyone thinks I'm being very offensive on the boards...they don't know I'm actually not taking anything seriously at all.

Merry Christmas to you.

I hate everything and everyone.

hmm...I'm not sure but all the previews,sneak peaks and clips I've watched were all spoken in both Mandarin and Cantonese, i.e. Zhang Zi Yi, Gong Li speaking in Mandarin and Tony Leung speaking Cantonese and the Japanese guy speaking Japanese...I thought it was gonna be that way anyway...and I think that should be the way.

Sorry but I haven't seen Last Life in the Universe.

I hate everything and everyone.

christopher doyle though is natively australian has said that he is more 'asian' now than australian since he has spent the better part of his life in taiwan, hk etc...so i find it odd that someone would think that hero was shot with more an australian eye...interesting though.

yes, as i've said, i know christopher - i've moved among the hong kong movie makers and know quite a few of them as friends.

my reason for saying that the cinematography was great because of an aussie eye (and not a chinese one) is simply because for years and years, the focus of hong kong made movies were often on action, not artistic expression and i stress "artistic" in terms of colour, texture, quality. these are often what young film-makers in europe (and not only film-makers, graphic students, those in fashion, in the creative industries generally), and internationally outside of the u.s. are taught to develop. the development and perfection of an "eye" - one that allows you to weigh and provide symmetry - the beauty of form from balanced proportion ... and you either have it or you don't.

canadian, australian and new zealand film-makers, unlike american film-makers, don't have to bow down to the pressure of producing a movie according to a commercial formula, so most could afford to be "artists", and express themselves given the ability to raise the money to turn their art into something the public could view eventually and hopefully appreciate.

hong kong never had a proper film school, and everyone had to learn from starting jobs in advertising agencies working on commercial campaigns, and following a "director" who oftentimes was a foreigner and they were considered the best then as they charged astronomically for their work. those who tried to learn on the job, eventually picked up what they felt was the trick of the trade, and yes, some learnt finally to develop an eye.

... of course, everything's improving now and with the hong kong and mainland chinese movies going international, some production are really outstanding. i make it a point to always buy the latest movies in hong kong and get feedback and recommendation from my friends there. the last one (some months ago) they recommended was ONG-BAK and they were telling me that this was awesome stuff, no wire and stuntman to take the beating. nothing hong kong can beat. it's incredible. whew. left me stunned.

anyway, i'm no film expert, i just love movies that are beautiful, have great stories, make me laugh, make me feel good, or keep me in suspense. i also love to monitor the development in cgi even if the storyline of the movie sucks. i can't take horror and violence too much and really will prefer to avoid them.

erm...ma'am. Zhang Yi Mou(the director for Hero) is not a Hong Konger...he's a mainlan Chinese from Beijing and is an arthouse director. You obviously haven't watched any of his classics yet. Hero is a commercial film and to date his worst movie is probably House of Flying Daggers.

Ong-Bak is a Thai movie.

I hate everything and everyone.

Christopher Doyle is more Chinese than Australian......

isla maia = my kinda guy

I'm personally sick of all these crap in the media about Shanghai and it's "westernization" and all this commercial madness...just another product of the sick media consumer culture of the west.

I hate everything and everyone.

since there has been so much talk lately bout prolly the greatest single piece of clothing that the 2 immigrants who went to America gave the world. Here's a little something for you...enjoy

[/b] About the charm of the Jeans [/b]

Fascinating many people in the world, it does not stop, "the jeans".

It diverges the charm, but it tried rearranging the point which you thought in your own appearance here.

1. It is strong

As for the jeans the underpants which are born originally the work wear as a beginning. Therefore cloth is thick in comparison with the other clothing, those which make strongly are many. Symbolizing the ruggedness it was struck in the various parts where load catches, the "kappa rivet" is. In addition, also the buttons of the metal make which is rammed down with similar technique and role of ruggedness are borne.

It is connected to maintenance present cheapness that it is strong. As for delicate clothing such as suit the element which uses the air in wearing, retaining and cleaning etc. is many, but as for the obstinate jeans handling rather in the rough, as for receiving the damage which causes hindrance to wearing it is little. And being strong, durability is connected to also the height of cost performance.

2. Bosom is deep

As for the jeans which are born as a "strong work wear", because it was done after that by enterprise and the designer and the individual whose improvement of the material and design and detail etc. is various, now various, the jeans about of the number of stars are sold in the world. As a result, the jeans regardless of the old age Wakao woman, it became "the underpants which anyone can wear".

Originally, ruggedness the jeans of circumstances, it is the favor which obtained the create which is answered the needs of the wide customer.

"Ruggedness, tough" you can say that with the "various variations", make the depth of bosom of the jeans.

3. Fitting to body

The jeans of just fitting in the men's underpants rather show the body conscious (body line clearly) the clothes. This point is considered, the place where by your are good is emphasized, the bad place the jeans which can be recovered become the weapon which is very effective.

And somatotype of the person who good quality of the good strain and arrival feeling, and wears about the jeans which are fitted are shown well.

In addition, cloth thickly as for the jeans whose sewing is strong, is can expect also the reform of the body can line and, also use as the barometer of your own somatotype management.

4. It is various to in addition to

When "abundance" of ruggedness "and the variation" purchases the jeans, wearing it is the merit, but in the jeans it is the various pleasures to in addition to. Roughly when you write the main pleasure, as follows.

(1) it combines with the other clothes: Pleasure of coordinating

(2) color falling and change of arrival feeling: The pleasure which raises

(3) favorite is gathered: The collection the pleasure which is done

(4) you try processing by your: The pleasure which creates

You talk together (5) concerning the jeans: The jeans as a communication tool

Perhaps to in addition to the expectation which is the various pleasures depending upon the person. Method of enjoying is infinite.

Roughly you just wrote as for the clothes where the merit is many so there is no medium 々.

Also everyone, please enjoys the jeans by all means from various viewpoints.

I hate everything and everyone.

dude, seriously...how many pairs of jeans do u own man? just curious...be honest. I can't guess as I really dunno what to expect and dunno what's your income.

I hate everything and everyone.

not to mention a good t-shirt also has to be pretty resistant to stretches and alterations due to pulling/jerking etc. Y'know just in case u get into a rumble with some asshole or something...or some kid brother or cousin who likes pulling your t-shirt.

I hate everything and everyone.

maybe they should at least throw a fucking superstar/new year's eve party in conjunction with it then it wouldn't be as bad...but still...spending new year's eve at midnight waiting to buy shoes...never thought of that man...

I hate everything and everyone.

oh...funny...I actually wasted my time typing a long winded piece of crap as a reply to CL's posts and forgot to copy it so now it vanished coz I got timedout again. Blah! I'm not gonna bother thinking about what I wrote again and rewriting it coz it's a waste of time anyway. I'm out.

Whoever's in charge should fucking remove the timeout or whatever setting as it's clearly inconveniencing and pissing a lot of people off.

I hate everything and everyone.

I'ma go bang my head against the wall now.

I hate everything and everyone.

erm...do you actually know how many percent on average the retail price of a BAPE tee is increased from the cost of production? And there are many tee-shirts out there with similar qualities or even better that don't even cost half as much as a Bape tee-shirt.

If you have done your research and know Nigo's strategy thoroughly well from day one since he started, you'll know that his justification for the high price is that as long as he makes it hard to get and limited, people(dumb) will be willing to fork out money like nobody's business...and in Japan, basically the majority of the youth. Sorry, it's blunt but everyone who knows Japan knows it's the truth.

I hate everything and everyone.

so when can we expect XXXXXL t-shirts from BAPE and some Hockey jerseys? j/k

BTW, just for general info...Nigo doesn't design most of the tees himself.

I hate everything and everyone.

I personally dun recommend trying to speed up the process with sandpaper or any chemicals as it won't be as natural as the natural process itself. If you know what I mean.

Be patient! Just wait! It's worth it! Also, when washing, do not use too much soap or don't use soap at all if it's not that dirty as the soap washes out the dye even faster.

For me personally it's not just about the smell but it's uncomfortable if you're wearing a piece of garment that's filled with dried sweat and dead skin cells in them! It makes me itch as well!

I hate everything and everyone.

those romanelli jackets are sweet but hella expensive man!

I hate everything and everyone.

lololol

I hate everything and everyone.

heh you guys should look at not just my sneakers but my white chair I use on the computer table back in my home.

I hate everything and everyone.

yeah.

Check the label. If it does shrink after the first wash it's usually only about 11% on the length.

I hate everything and everyone.

oh it was Dolo.

I hate everything and everyone.

even after washing them they're still gonna stain your shoes...I have the same problem as well. But I just don't bother too much about it.

Some guy asked this questionn before and someone(can't remember who) here on the board adviced using some tape on the insides of your hem.

I hate everything and everyone.
