Time Magazine Interview: 10 Questions for Susan Sarandon

Harper's Bizarre

Whilst I am a staunch defender of Japan and its culture, I have to say even these illustrations by Japanese artist, Toshio Saeki (not to be confused with the character of the same name from The Grudge) somewhat shocked me.

FEIST

I'm totally...

ashamed/unashamed to say that I'm in LOVE with Jersey Shore at the moment.

Whilst I slated it, dismissed it as another MTV/Hills creation & (from what I'd heard) thought it shameful exploitation of a certain stereotype of Italians, it's actually highly entertaining, honest, even touching in parts.

They're loud, dress how they like, do what they like, and I like them for that.

And never do they say they represent Italians, they've even said they represent no-one but themselves.

& Snooki really isn't that bad. She's just an insecure girl looking for love.

She's probably the nicest girl in the house too.

JwoWW's still my favourite though. That girl's got BALLS.

SIMPLY AMAZING

Toy Story 3 is simply a brilliant film & MUST be seen.
I defy you to not get caught up in the whole story, & I advise watching at LEAST the first film prior to viewing the (hopefully) final installment in this fantastic trilogy.
& as per usual, the short animation beforehand is genius.
