Australian Idol is over, but rest assured as another singing competition will soon hit our Channel Ten screens. What makes this show diff from the others? Well not much really, besides the fact that there's no age limit and that anybody can enter whether you're a individual or vocal group. sound exciting? not bloody likely. looks more like a shit version Pop Stars. eww. let's not go back there again.
thought of the day: what happened to Casey?

COFA (College of Fine Arts) just had its recent exhibtion of the graduate works of 2004, as well as a screening of motion works (video, 3d, motion graphics, animation) from the Digital Media school. Alot of nice work at the screening, but the work that stood out the most and set the standard of the year was from Lisha Tan with Archentide (pronounced Ark-ken-tide for those playing at home). Simply amazing 3d work with an anime aethestic. It was basically a trailer to an epic war film. You know those Brave heart, Hero, Final Fantasy type shots of soldiers running into battle? Just like that, but in an anime/3d sorta way. Fucking brilliant.

Take look at the new maccas. Gone are the days of the ugly plastic looking booth seats as well as the ugly dining chairs as we say hello to the most stylish fast food resturant. It looks like something from Ikea, which can only be a good thing. Continuing with their "new" McDonalds initiative (which started with the intro of salads and healthy food), people can now finally eat in style.

LINKIN
PARK VS JAY-Z
Thursday
18th Nov 2004 
Remember how Linkin Park's Reanimation CD was so hot?! A
CD full of the illest remixes of their first album Hybird Theory, well this
time they're doing it again with some sick ass collaborations with Jay-Z.
That's right, Jay-Z the-ugly-rapper-who's-boning-hottie-Beyonce
himself makes an appearance on the rock/alternate record. i was skeptical
about this, especially how they're from two difference genres. But from listening
to the fusion track Numb / Encore (from LP and JZ respectively)
i've already wet my pants in anticipation.
LP + JZ: Collision Course is available November 29.

THE
REAL INITIAL D
Saturday
13th Nov 2004 
Out of all the inevitable things in this world, this has to be the greatest.
That's right, the real live action Initial D movie has finally
hit the streets. Staying true to its asian form, its full of Chinese (how
weird they're not Jap) actors, with Jay Chou taking the lead
as the drift whore Takumi and Anthony Wong as everyone's
favourite car dad, Bunta. Personally, i think that fat old guy from the YnD
series would fit the role better esp with his squinting eyes.
No idea when its released, if not released already. So if anyone has the movie, please give me a call.. lol
