And another also: OMG THE REBOOT MOVIE WON'T ROCK. It should, but it won't. Mainframe isn't producing the film, and while it'll still be CG, that doesn't mean it'll have the same feel, or authenticity of the original title. The only reason I can sort of accept the film being made, is because the last two "films", (the 4th season in America), left the audience with a huge cliffhanger. Which sucked. Ahem.

Okay, I will give you that the ReBoot movies won't be as good as the original series, but I'm hoping SOME of our questions will be answered!! I'm disappointed to know Mainframe isn't producing it, but what can you do.

I saw Dir en grey in Orlando in Februrary, and I liked them, but they weren't the best band I've ever seen. I do know that Plastic Tree is awesome. I'd like to go see them at some point, too.

For those of you poor people who have not read Kobo ABE he will change your life. Try Yukio Mishima, Yasunari Kawabata or his rival Tanizaki. If you are a diehard Murakami fan you just might meet the real masters. You will find out why the Japanese think you don't read much if you like Murakami.

That book was huge. It's Wikipedia article isn't.

Also, Dir en Grey wasn't that great in Seattle about a month or so ago. The set was only 40 minutes long. But that's OK, because Plastic Tree > Dir en Grey. You know it.
