Brett Helquist has to be my all-time favourite illustrator since, in 2003, the moment I saw A Series of Unfortunate Events: the fifth book The Austere Academy at Whitcouls on Queen st.

I love the style he draws people, all angled and skinny, and the way he depicts surroundings, making the three orphans all vulnerable, as they are. Anyone who's seen my drawings would know why I like him so much, his stuff is all straight edged and precise. He is a part of the reason why I bought the whole series consisting of thirteen books Tee hee. And the one about Vermeer.

I vant more of his works yay !

I don't usually ramble over action movies




excluding pretty impressive ones such as Kill Bill vol.1 & 2 or 괴물 (The Host) - if you would call that an action movie it is, instead of... Yeah it's an action - but Batman: The Dark Knight I must say was one of the best I've seen, thanks to Heath Ledger (as he is one of my all-time favourite actors) and the IMAX camera (along with the mega screen, it felt amazing, I think it may have impressed me even more than it should have because it was my first time watching on a mega screen too)

So, not only am I not into action films much, but the cartoon character batman doesn't really excite me that much either, based on my knowledge, he's merely a silly young man who enjoys spending money on gadgets and likes to wear tight suits. But let's not go into too much detail in bitching about him because that way he would be eating up too much of my time and i. . Yeah . You get the drift.

The main reason I enjoyed it much if because of the Joker. And the way Heath Ledger portrayed him. Since I love him so much, I would have enjoyed anything that features him (for example if he played batman, I still would have liked it, less, but still) but in my opinion it was the best he's ever done.

Was it, You either die a hero or live along enough to become the villain..?

Perhaps he knew it would be his last, who knows what was going through his mind when he was trying to adopt the Joker's characteristics, it would drive anyone to madness, since the man is pure madness himself. And if he did, knowing it would be his last, who can't help but do their best. It was also my first impression of the character of Joker too, since I didn't pay much attention when the animated Joker was rambling on on TV, and as important these first impressions are, to me, no one will play the role better than Heath ledger has.

May he rest in peace . ;__;
