「トワイライト・ブレイド」[TWILIGHT BLADE] Interview with Akado Yamada

Hi there! Alucard Yamada here.

OK! Here's the interview with Akado Yamada.

Are you ready? 3, 2, 1, GO!


1. Describe yourself in 3 words… and why! ( use adjectives )

Courageous: I always face up to challenges. Even if I lose, I will not back down from a fight!
Compassionate: I always take good care of my girlfriend, my family and my friends.
Stubborn: There are most things that I will never give in to people. Maybe that's why I have only a few friends.


2. What made you want to be part of "Twilight Blade"?

First of all, it has been my dream of producing a fan-film that has the best of both worlds. That has the romantic feeling of "Twilight" and the action-packed feeling of "Blade".


3. Are you anything like the character you play on "Twilight Blade"? What are some similarities / differences?

Actually, the character is more like me. LOL!

Similarities: We never give up. We are good in swords. We have a dark past. And we always pick our fights.
Differences: I am a human (duh!), I do not have superhuman abilities. And I have more brain power than Jake Cena (the character).


4. Any unforgettable / hilarious / most enjoyable moments while filming?

Actually, there was this time that I was halfway filming a scene and then all of a sudden, the battery went flat! LOL! We had no choice but to re-plan and re-do the entire scene, solely because the scene itself sucks. That is also laughable as the sucky scene turned out to be too cheesy for our taste.


5. What are some of the challenges you faced while filming?

Manpower. We only lack manpower.


6. If you’re not filming, what are some of the stuff you enjoy doing in your free time?

Playing video games, Playing music, Listening to music, Watching Anime and Tokusatsu, Reading comics, Sparring, and surfing the Internet.


7. Favourite:

Singer & Song: "Decode" by Paramore, "SAKURA" by THE LOCAL ART, "Here Comes The End Again" by Eyeshine, and there are many more (in fact, too long to be written!)
Celebrity crush: Riyu Kosaka, Reina Tanaka, Koharu Kusumi, Dakota Fanning.
Book: "Twilight" by Stephenie Meyer, "The Lord of the Rings" by J. R. R. Tolkien, "Artemis Fowl" by Eoin Colfer, "Harry Potter" by J. K. Rowling

Twilight (2008 film)

Finally! Here's the review of "Twilight" for the Ultimate Media Freak!

As you can see, this is a vampire romance film.

And I must say, it really is hard for me to describe this film in a review form.

So, I'm gonna put it blunt and simple.

It was really good. It had depth and story. Most important of all, it was WAY better than the novel itself.

How was it better than the novel?

In a way, it really portrayed the setting and the characters in a more vivid environment.

So, it really was made into a good film.

And yes, of all the movies I have reviewed this year, this will be labelled "The Ultimate Media Freak Movie Event of the Year 2008"!

So, I'm gonna give this an ultimate score of 10 out of 10 stars! WOOT!



And by the way, keep a lookout for this show. I'll be doing more than just movie reviews. I'll be doing game reviews, and more music reviews.

And hopefully, I will get to start a video version of the show soon.

I am Adam Yamada a.k.a. Alucard Yamada

and this has been "The Ultimate Media Freak".

Have a happy Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

P.S. Whoever the fucktard said that Twilight was bad *ahem*BUM!*ahem*, go and fuck yourselves to shame!

This movie deserves an Oscar for the efforts being put into it!

Cicak-Man 2: Planet Hitam

OK!

I know I should have reviewed "Winx Club: The Secret of the Lost Kingdom", but I might as well review its DVD when it is out. Since most cinemas have already taken the movie out of the roster.

However, there is another movie in which I find awesome to say the least.

"Cicak-Man 2: Planet Hitam" is a superhero movie that defines the action in an action movie.

OK, OK. I know I am using the formula "X Y is X". I just use that for the lulz. Intentionally.

Anyway, the movie started with a big bang! Seriously.

The character portrayal in this movie is really solid. The dialogue in this one is more multi-lingual. The action sequences are way too awesome!

The depth of the story? Needless to say that the storyline in this one is more politically-driven and personal issues spread like wildfire!

In fact, think of it as a clash of "Hancock" VS "Spider-Man" VS The Real World.

Yes! It's a triple threat, ladies and gentlemen.

Well, it's more of a Fatal-4-Way between Cicak-Man, Professor Klon, Rrama and The Ginger Ghosts. (Spoiler Alert!)

And yes, it is way better than the first one.

Still, if only Cicak-Man reveals his true identity to Tania!

Well, it's just wishful thinking.

Anyway, here is my score on this movie.



A perfect score once again!

5 out of 5!

Thank you.

Akumajou Dracula X Chronicle Original Soundtrack

OK! My first music review for "The Ultimate Media Freak"!

Here it goes.

As you can see, this is the best soundtrack arrangement for an epic Castlevania game.

For those of you who don't know, this compilation has songs that are featured in Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles, AKUMAJOU DRACULA X: CHI NO RONDO, and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

Why do I say that this is the best?

For starters, the soundtrack is digitally remastered. So don't expect this to be a low-quality affair.

Instead, you will be treated with a wholesome, refreshing sounds in real instruments.

You might want to get this. It is worth your money.

Anyway, here are some pictures for your reference:








For a soundtrack, it really stands out to be the most detailed in its presentation.

So, I'm giving this a perfect score of 5/5!



Thank you for reading!

The X-Files: I Want To Believe

OK! Now, it's time to review another film.



Well, I'm not gonna spoil anything.

But one thing is certain. This film is a standalone sequel to the TV series, meaning that this film still retains their storyline, but the details are not related to their alien mythos. Instead, they are dealing with something inhumane and questionable.

I'm not gonna say what it is. You have to find out.

Also, as a teaser, there will be a romantic twist of a plot in the end of this film.

And be sure to stay behind during the credits. There will be something interesting there.

Anyway, the character development here is solid. However, the plot got lost halfway through the entire film, making it "broken".

So, A rating of 4/5 should do justice.

Alucard Yamada
