Omegle: Chat with Complete Strangers
2009-04-10 18:00:00 This new social service wants you to strike up conversations with complete strangers. Omegle puts you in a private chat with someone completely random, and the handles are simply "You" and "Stranger". Kinda weird, right? But who knows? Maybe this will catch wildfire.

100 Strangers - Triya....a model from Bandung
2008-08-06 18:00:00 Triya...the model from Bandung This picture is #1 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at www.100Strangers.com or http://www.flickr.com/groups/10-0strangers/ This is my first stranger to kickstart this project. I am very happy to have succeeded in capturing a beautiful, sweet model from Indonesia for my first of the 100 strangers. I was at the backstage of a fashion show in front of Ngee Ann City shopping centre. They had an event going on promoting 'Visit Indonesia 2008' Meet Triya, a 24 year old model hailed from Bandung, Indonesia. She was one of the models showing off some haute couture clothes of young budding Indonesian designers. I saw her sitting backstage waiting for her turn to go on stage, i just had to capture her portrait. And willingly enough she posed in front of my camera. What she liked about her job is that..."I can wear nice clothes and the money that I get from modeling is good. I have ...

Movie Review: The Strangers
2008-06-04 19:11:00 Title: The StrangersDirector: Bryan BertinoReleased: May 30, 2008Runtime: 90 min.I work at a movie theater, thus I get to see movies for free. Sometimes I even get paid to watch movies. This review should be the first in a long line of movie reviews this summer. I hope to see as many movies as I can, but these reviews will most likely be mostly positive, because I?m going to see movies I want to see, not just anything. The following review will be the exception.I got to screen The Strangers on Thursday night, which was a pretty good gig, really. Instead of doing any real work, I got paid to watch a movie for a little over an hour and a half. While I would have preferred a better movie, I can?t really complain. It certainly was better than tearing tickets.The Strangers is a horror/suspense film, coming from a long line of movies that I don?t care about at all. I never saw The Ring or any of the Saws, or even Friday the 13th (though I should see that one, if only because it?s ...

2008-05-30 10:29:00 Poor Liv Tyler. She?s stuck in a remote vacation home with nothing but the blank-stare acting of Scott Speedman to ?save? her. What?s a rock daughter who becomes an actress to do? First, she shouldn?t sign onto yet another version of the couple-in-terror cliché. ?The Strangers? is a scary movie that has been there and done that with a few style points thrown in to distract from the ripoff. Read Patrick McDonald?s full review of ?The Strangers? in our reviews section.View our full ?The Strangers? image gallery. Tyler is Kristen McKay: a single gal who?s on the precipice of the big engagement. Speedman is James Hoyt. He?s her potential fiancé: a boorish chap who thinks the big rock is a slam dunk. After they both attend a wedding, Hoyt sets up his uncle?s remote cabin (cue ominous music) to celebrate what he figured would be his betrothal. Surprisingly, though, Kristen has rejected his promise. For some reason, they?re still completing their depressing journey to the cabin. The he...

CD Review: The Strangers Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, by tomandandy
2008-05-28 22:08:00 Horror scores are an interesting lot. They should provide an atmosphere of tenseness and a presence of looming danger, but without overdoing it and toppling over into melodrama or camp (unless that’s what the film calls for). Typically these scores are more fast paced than normal scores with numerous jolts and screeches intended to frighten ...

Liv Tyler Held Hostage By Masked Strangers
2008-03-18 01:59:00 Liv Tyler and her son, Milo, are traipsing around, looking cute on a rainy afternoon just outside their Soho apartment. I feel like I had noticed some strange alterations Liv had made to her face (and God only knows where else) not that long ago, but she looks pretty normal in these pictures. I really wish she wouldn't mess with what God gave her. I wouldn't, if I looked like that. On another note, I just watched the trailer for Liv Tyler's new movie (which you can see after the jump), a suspenseful thriller called The Strangers, and I'm officially ready to buy one of these. A review for the film points out that the plot of an unsuspecting couple finding themselves held hostage in their own home is going to evoke some comparison's to a movie out at the moment with a similar storyline, Funny Games. Needless to say, I probably shouldn't watch a double-feature of these two back-to-back if I ever hope to be able to sleep alone at home again. There might need to be some The...

Review: Strangers In Death
2008-03-07 21:35:00 Strangers In Deathby J.D. RobbTechnology may be different in 2060 New York, yet the city is still a place of many cultures and great divides. But as ever, some murders receive more attention than others-especially those in which the victim is a prominent businessman, found in his Park Avenue apartment, tied to the bed-and strangled-with cords of black velvet.It doesn't surprise Lieutenant Eve Dallas that Thomas Anders's scandalous death is a source of titillation and speculation to the public-and of humiliation to his family. But while people in the city are talking about it, those close to Anders aren't so anxious to do the same. With some help from her billionaire husband, Roarke, Eve's soon knocking on doors-or barging through them-to find answers.But the facts don't add up. Physical evidence suggests that the victim didn't struggle. The security breach in the apartment indicates that the killer was someone known to the family, but everyone's alibi checks out. Was this a c...
Balki is Back as Perfect Strangers Comes to DVD
2008-03-06 04:56:00 Everyone has their favorite television shows from years past. Some shows from our childhood will always hold a special place in our hearts. Watching some of these programs on DVD years later can be a depressing experience. Well, the television show Perfect Strangers, which has just released its first two seasons onto DVD, is just such an experience.The show, launched as a mid-season replacement in 1986, was a success and aired through August of 1993. It followed the story of Larry Appleton (Mark Linn-Baker) and his (very) distant cousin, Balki Bartokomous (Bronson Pinchot). The show starts out with Larry, a mid-20-something man from Wisconsin having moved to Chicago to live alone and pursue his dreams of becoming a photojournalist. One day (the day the show begins) Larry answers a knock on the door to find out that a cousin he never knew, Balki, has arrived from the island of Mypos to live with him. The culture clash is instant as Balki has little to no idea about U.S. customs other...

Strangers- Decent Thriller- But…..
2008-02-13 17:25:00 In a way, the title could take another dimension. The four principle characters (based in London) seem like strangers to Hindi cinema, or at least to what we have come to expect from lead characters. In an earlier, more stereotypical yet socially better era, three of the four principle characters here could be called negative. But today, with writers and filmmakers obsessed with dark sides of human beings, with being non-judgemental and with spinning tales of “gray” men and women, we have a thriller made on three such people and a fourth character who, though a victim of both circumstances and spouse, is not portrayed as sympathetically as deserved but is the only positive one! And so the four characters look as if they belonged to a foreign country – at a time when Hollywood is learning from Indian cinema and so many of their films (Meet The Fockers, The Holiday), emotions- and value-wise, come across almost like Indian films set in foreign shores! It... |
