basterds.

so i saw inglourious basterds on monday with jacky
i really really liked it.
and for me especially, cos i was so proud that i could understand quite a lot of the german dialogue without the subtitles
:) :)
my german still hasn't died yet

oh, and throughout the movie
i kept going
"oh, i've seen that guy before. who is he?"
and it happened like 3/4 times
and it annoyed me cos i kept thinking about it
i remembered though during the film
turns out they're from all the german stuff i've watched
so i'll mention them to you :)
Daniel Brühl
so to all of my german buddies
and those who came to german club with us
he was in The Edukators and he played Jan
and also, if you've seen Goodbye Lenin!
he played Alex in that as well



Gedeon Burhard
he is the second Kommissar Rex (Inspektor Rex) guy
he played Bradtner
and he was my favourite out of all of the agents
(well, maybe i liked the first guy too, Moser, but the third guy was crap with that girl as his partner)
defs the best looking though, out of all the agents
:)

and the other two
Eli Roth and Til Schweiger
i still have not figured out where i have seen them before
but the look SO familiar
and i looked at their list of movies
and they haven't been in anything i've seen
hmm?

another thing i wanted to say
Eli Roth
he looked like a friggin male model in the movie
he gave off this Zoolander/Bruno look
it was quite funny





























also, B.J. Novak
Ryan from The Office was in it too
and i don't understand why
he's just not tough looking like the rest of the Basterds
its just doesn't work

and one last thing
i kept having trouble spelling their 'inglourious'
cos it has an extra 'u'
and its strange cos the lose the 'u' in the rest of their spelling
like color or favorite
(as opposed to colour & favourite)
odd.

anyhow,
thats my little spiel on the movie

wait, oh one last thing
there's this scene after they introduce the director and his wife
that scene was just so unnecessary and i have no idea why it there.
yes s if you watch that movie, look out for the scene
i think, you'll know what i mean.

bitte?

haven't done a music post in a while

so here's my review/recommendation for his week

The Dirty Projectors new album, Bitte Orca

i'm quite liking it.

though it did take a few listens to get use to

they're a six person band

the songs are sung by both male and female vocalists

what i like about them is their

is the interweaving of the music with the vocals

what i mean is they make the vocals work through the music.

(did that make sense? or did that just sound like i was tryng to make myself sound like i know what i'm talking about?)

myspace: here

& for more on what i listen to

go to my last.fm

just click the music tab at the top

:)

in other news,

i really really can't wait til i get my guitar

i'm ebaying off guitar music

:)

the ones i really want though (strokes, death cab, yyy)

are really expensive

there's also one that you buy the pdf of beatles songs

its like 200 songs

but

i'm not sure if its dodgy or not

like whether thats legal.

but yes, i do really want the beatles musc, too!

i'm also plannng to learn the cello

but not this holiday

the 3 month break at the end of the year.

go me :)

will write a more interesting blog soon

i'm out today.

(STILL have to study.)

oh, and if you didn't know bitte means sorry or please in german.

(but it has no relevance to this blog, just that the albumis called Bitte Orca)
i miss german :(

♥

another sighting

i saw frau paffenholz (my ex german teacher) again today
she was riding a bike
& i was crossing the road
i actualy talked to her today
i was like "frau! frau!"
she was like, "OH!"
and smiled her cute swinty eye smile
and waved.
then i was like, "are you going home now?"
she was like, "no, i'm going to buy food"
and i was like, "ok, bye" and waved
and she rode off
aww.
