“In this word, there are three types of swindlers. Those who defraud other people’s money, Shirosagi. Those who deceive others by manipulating their feelings, Akasagi. And then, using the Shirosagi and Akasagi as his only source of food, is the ultimate swindler in history. His name is Kurosagi” Pretty cool eh ? That’s the opening text of this drama.

Kurosagi is the latest JDrama I’ve watched. I’m actually not really a fan of JDrama since most of the stories are more about relationships. I haven’t known any drama that focuses more on action and stuffs, but maybe that’s because I’m just not exposed enough to the world of JDrama ;) I think the last time JDrama I watched was Friends (god damn Kyoko Fukada looks so cute in this drama).

Anyway, enough of Friends, I wanna talk about Kurosagi. The drama is about how a victim of a con case which in turns became a con artist himself. The main difference between him and other swindlers is that he only cons from bad swindlers. That storyline alone got me hooked to this 11 episodes drama. The story kinda like Matchstick Men by Nicholas Cage. So, if you like this Comedy/Drama/Thriller/Crime/Romance (just a little bit), go grab the DVD, totally worth it, but of course, I just downloaded it from the net :) Oh yes, you can get more information about the actor and the actress from DramaWiki. Enjoy the drama!

Since I got nothing to do on this boring weekend, I decided to share with you people my favorite TV Series. So here goes the list with some information about it, oh, by the way, it may contain a little bit spoiler for those who haven’t watch it, but I’ll try my best to keep it to the minimum so that it won’t ruin your experience if you decided to watch it.

CSI: Las Vegas

You may ask, why not CSI Miami or CSI New York ? Simply because it’s the first and the leader, Gil Grissom. is actually a scientist (in the show, not in real life) which to me is so freaking cool. Compared to other CSIs, others are not scientist. But don’t get me wrong, I do like CSI Miami (due to the coolness of Lt. Horatio Caine), it’s just that I like Las Vegas more. Cases presented are much more mysterious, weird, and complicated than the others. Remember last season criminal, the Miniature Killer ? The one who killed people and then send a miniature model of the crime scene to the CSI team, totally wicked.

Desperate Housewives

I still remember the first time I heard about this TV Series, I was like, the only reason I would watch a TV Series displaying old housewives together is because Teri Hatcher is in it. I became one of her fan due to her act in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. So, I decided to watch the first episode and then, I’m totally hooked to the TV Series not just because of Teri Hatcher anymore, but also because of Eva Longoria and of course, the storyline which is also interesting. Who would have guessed, a beautiful neighborhood got so many secrets hidden inside their houses and that’s what make Desperate Housewives so interesting.

Gossip Girl

I didn’t pay much attention at all when this TV Series was launched. I did read about its review on how Kristen Bell from Veronica Mars narrates the show as the “Gossip Girl” herself, the story which is somehow almost similar to The O.C (my favorite too). One day, my friend recommended me to watch it, so, I thought since I don’t have any teen drama to watch at that moment, I decided to give it a try, of course, I got hooked up to this one too. The first thing I noticed is one of the actor, the beautiful Leighton Meester which appeared before in House as one of her patient that fall in love with House just because she got disease that can fool her emotion. She definitely act very well for her character as a classy, beautiful, manipulative and rich. But, it’s not just about her, others act very well too.

Heroes

I don’t think I need to introduce this one, one of the most popular TV Series at the moment. Even though, it’s more like The 4400, only it’s so much better. This show got everything, flying, mind reading, bending space and time, invisible, fast healing, nuclear bomb, you just name it. My favorite character is definitely Peter Petrelli, the one who can absorb any abilities, that ability is just so freaking cool.

House M.D

I never like E.R much, House is the only medical show that interests me specifically because it deals with weird deseases and solve it like it’s a puzzle. Even though my friends from medical departments said that House is a stupid show since it shows how the doctor do all the work, from MRI, to X-Ray, to Lab Testing and others which is totally a lie since no doctors can do all that stuff alone. But, who cares ? I’m so glad I’m not in the medical field, coz, if I do, I won’t be able to enjoy this show. The most interesting part of this show is not about the medical itself, it’s about Dr House himself. The way he talks is just way too cool. I definitely like the way he being sarcastic to others around him. I also learned about a few weird deseases after watching this one.

Jericho

The storyline is indeed interesting. Some people said the show became worse at the end of Season 1. But seriously, you people just hold on and watch till the end of this TV Series. The ending is so well done that I felt I don’t care anymore if this show discontinued, simply because it has been ended very well. This is one of the show when it was cancelled, people got angry and started to send tons of nuts to the tv station just to show how many people are supporting this show.

Kyle XY

This is only show for people who likes to science fiction series. But of course, if you watch this series just because of the ‘cute’ main actor, Kyle himself, or maybe the heroin, the beautiful Amanda, I won’t blame you. The story got better when Kyle’s secret being exposed one by one. This is more like Heroes except there’s only one Hero where he can perform multiple extraordinary capabilities due to his powerful mind.

Lost

I seriously don’t understand why people would watch a TV Series displaying a bunch of people living on a remote island. I mean, what story could they possibly make ? So, I tried the first episode, oh my, I was so wrong about this one. The mystery about the island itself is enough to get me hooked. But if you don’t like waiting for the answer of everything happening on that island, you should just skip this one. It’s a very torturing moment waiting for the answer :(

Prison Break

The first season of this show is definitely the best. I was so addicted to this show, just to know what will happen in the next episode. Of course this is an interesting show, put a genius in a prison and watch him escape, that’s just so insanely cool. But it got worse in the second season, however, the third season became better, but still can’t beat the first season. By the way, every time I recommend Prison Break to anyone I know, they all seems can’t get enough of it, so, maybe you should try it if you just heard about this one for the first time :)

Smallville

Who don’t like Superman ? If you like Superman, you’ll definitely like this one, at least for a while. Getting a little boring from time to time due to the storyline. The only reason I’m still watching this one is because the current season likes to talks about the Superman’s secret. Thank god the heroin is in the coma right now (in the show), if not, this one will suck more.

Supernatural

Put ghosts, funny and cool guys, hot girls crying for help and black magic into a story, you got a good TV Series. Supernatural is more like a Ghostbusters except that it’s better and most of the ghosts are based on the real one from around the world. It’s always cool to watch Dean and Sam do some hocus pocus to destroy the ghosts, which usually boils to the same thing, either cremated the dead body or recite some weird words.

I guess that’s all, so, what about you, tell me a little bit your favorite show in the comment section, thanks !

So, last time we got Shaolin people playing soccer, this time we got Kungfu people playing basketball. Written by Takehiko Inoue (my favorite Slam Dunk manga author), Kung Fu Dunk is about Jay Chou playing basketball using Kungfu. That’s pretty much the summary of the movie. Expect it to be released February 2008. Untill then, enjoy these videos :)

Trailer

Leaked Video ?

Apparently, there’s another movie made for Death Note. I’ve never like these movies much, maybe because of those actors don’t give me the same feeling as the anime. But since it’s Death Note, it’s definitely on my must watch list. So, as far as I understand, this movie is about L living his remaining life before he’s dead on the 23rd day.

Visit the official website.

For those who don’t know, previous movies are about the battle between two geniuses, one good and one evil. One of them somehow got hold of a book called Death Note which belongs to a Shinigami (Death God) which he can write any name and that person will be dead later. It’s pretty interesting and refreshing story. I just don’t like the actors, both of them doesn’t look genius enough especially Kira and L looks like a retard that is not a genius where he should act as a retard, but a total genius, XD. But that’s just me, who knows you’ll like them :)
