Some nice stuff from 2006

Taking an opportiunity to share my excitement about some stuff

Movies:

These weren’t released on 2006 but I watched them only in 2006, I think, anyhow they are great movies

The life aquatic – A fantastic movie, sort of mockumentary about that famous French diver. A good friend of mine says that watching it is like going on a short vacation. It also has one of the best soundtracks I’ve heard in a long time.

Howl’s moving castle – A great animated/drawn Asian film by this guy Hayao Miyazaki. I first saw a poster of it in a subway walkway in London I think… I was simply awe struck by the concept of a moving castle, sort of explains what breaking conceptual barriers is all about. Watching the movie was simply an amazing experience, that castle…

Hello my name A Borat – I have so much respect for this guy, even more because he’s partly Israeli and all… I always have the feeling that if I’d focus myself entirely on something like this, I could pull it off. Watching Baron Cohen do it first of all makes me laugh my ass off, because I appreciate cheap yet sophisticated humor (Dumb & Dumber, Adam Sandler tapes, the Chinese restaurant gag, “your daughter kicked my dog…” and so on).

Music:

We Run This by Missy Elliot – Bumped into this song while running, whow what a song. Not odd for someone like me who likes both Rahmaninov, Snoop-Dog, Metallica and recently Wolfmother.

Wolfmother – Apple Tree and Woman – My cousin Mike played me these and I fell for them immediately.
