About Me

Right so, hey... how's it going?
Goooood.

My Interests

Television, movies, music, pop culture in general. I swear I'm going to start my own magazine after the first stack of Hamiltons I make doing something else.
Acting, theatre, writing, directing... and again, TV and Film.
Sketching, comic books, graphic design.

I'd like to meet:


OH, see the Heroes section, so that this isn't just a wall of images... yet.
The creator of this fantastic peice of work...

Music:

TV on the Radio, Feist, David Bowie, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters, Jenny Lewis and The Watson Twins, Bob Dylan, John Prine, Tom Waits... to be continued.

Movies:

The Usual Suspects. Unbreakable. Pulp Fiction. Adaptation. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
I'll stop at the High Fidelity-esque Top 5, though if it's HF-esque it needs to be much more then just a Top 5, because a Top 5 Top 5 is impossible and selling to many movies short, which is what I'm doing right now because it's to late. So yes, the title of this Top 5, before the list goes up is...The Movies that have made me what I am, and what I want to be, as a person in and on film... or something.

Television:

JJ Abrahms and Joss Whedon own my everloving television loyalty. Amoung others, course, just those to have earned a reputation.

Books:

The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay...
And my 'other' books, at one time or another...
Watchmen. Fables. The Runaways. DMZ. Astonishing X-Men. Invincible. Y: The Last Man. The Walking Dead. Sin City (The Big Fat Kill and The Yellow Bastard, ecspecially). pre-Icon Powers. Ultimates 1 & 2 Geoff John's The Flash. X-Factor. All-Star Superman.

Heroes:

Judd Apatow Seth Rogen Ed Norton Paul Newman John C. Reily Ryan Gosling Paul Bettany Jack Lemmon Paul Thomas Anderson Charlie Kaufman Warren Ellis Bryan K. Vaughn Robert Kirkman Bryan Hitch John Cassidy James Jean JJ Abrahms Joss Whedon
