Fun With Honorifics

If I watch too many Japanese movies in a row, I start referring to Keeley as "Keeley-san" and myself as "Erin-chan".
Keeley does not like foreign films especially Japanese and French. I think it's because in American movies there is like a constant level of noise, just about every moment is filled with sound. But in foreign films there are a lot more moments of silence and then when there is a loud noise, it startles Keeley because it stands out more. That's my theory anyway. Keeley is okay with some foreign movies though. For example, he seems to be okay with Bollywood movies.

Japanese movies are cool! Though I don't understand what they're talking about(thank goodness for subtitles), the cinematography and stuff are always awesome...=) And Bollywood! The music is great for the films that I managed to catch...=)

We have never seen a foreign film, Keeley! Our favorite channel is animal planet but once in awhile some fun commercial gets our attention!

Love ya lots,
