The central nexus for all things film, gaming, art, and music.
and still
To be unhappy, in a world like this. I am greeted every morning with light and a song; the flowers bloom. My mother calls me, she wants to know how I’m settling in- she says my dad misses me. My friends are so kind, telling me I matter. The dog across the street wags his tail when he sees me. Oranges, butterflies, music. The poetry in my phone describing emotions I couldn’t begin to understand. Words, touch, the smell of wild lavender on the walk home. Being able to sleep when I’m tired, to eat when I’m hungry and enjoy it, to shower when I’m cold. Me and my sister laugh over the phone, and I get to see her grow. I get to grow too.
Double Jeopardy in Tokyo
On a sweltering hot afternoon in the summer of 2002, in an air conditioned conference room high in a Tokyo office tower, I sat opposite a team of Japanese SEC officials. They were steadily raising their voices, now almost shouting, accusing me of insider trading. The man in the middle, a mid-aged man with thick swept back hair, named Okada-san, peppered me with questions and accusations, while his two colleagues sat expressionless, studying my every movement. They wore the dark blue suits, white shirts, and pressed ties that were the standard uniform of Japanese government bureaucrats. I was an outsider.

Okay so the Vampire Academy books were something that I absolutely devoured as a teenager. I recognize (as an avid reader as well as a screenwriter) that the actual writing was not great. But I insist that there is a really great story buried in those books. HOWEVER that becomes a very difficult point to argue when they release a Vampire Academy movie that looked exactly like every parody film released in the 2010s. So when I found out they were making a TV show based on the books I was so skeptical and I wanted nothing more than for them to bring to life the story I saw in my head while reading those books. Well I finally got around to watching the show and I don’t know how many more chances this story is going to get, but can someone hire me so I can do this right PLEASE?!
