American Live Action Death Note
Category: movies

So WB acquired the rights and is going to release apparently new, American-made movies here. Interesting.

Thanks for the info. I'm sure they are a way off but if and when they ever get made it will be interesting to see how it comes out.

snowflakes
Category: city

As I drove down Hertel today I present a simple question: Can we take down the snowflakes off the light poles already!?!?

tiburon1724 - 04/24/09 22:45
yeah but it's not Winter....

paul - 04/24/09 19:43
True, its even snowed on mother's day.

metalpeter - 04/24/09 19:03
Um No It still Could Snow, the Flakes stay up till May 1, as the New Spokesman for Hertel that is what I declare, HA. I'm guessing with it now trying to be Little Italy that someone forgot to take them down. I think I saw an Irish Flag still up on Delaware like around a week ago and wonder if there are still any up still from the Parade.

That is so crazy that they are still there. Do they have something like the elmwood village association for hertel. I would call them.

Avant Part 2
Category: buffalo

So I was lucky enough to get a tour of the under construction Avant building. TO and Marshawn Lynch have bought a pair of the $1.7 million condos, a guy on the tour as well was the new owner of one of the ~$350,000 units as well. MANY units are gone, not many left in fact. Office space has one entire level leased and parts of other levels. Four restaurants will open with the hotel on July 1. I was VERY impressed. Most of the pics are actually city views from the condos themselves since there are full windows along the outer walls.

It is great to hear that so many of them have been purchased already.

tiburon1724 - 04/07/09 12:15
my bad, it's apparently the former Dulski building and I said Donovan...I think the Donovan is the one by the Aud. Anyway apparently some punk destroyed some shit over the weekend inside :/

Nice pictures. I agree that it is nice that there was no NIMBYism with this project. It really looks pretty cool. I can't wait to see what it looks like when it is completely finished.

tiburon1724 - 04/06/09 11:55
yeah I wish the weather was nicer for the pics. Sadly I'm not affiliated with Avant in any way, lol, I just love this stuff...this is actually happening, in Downtown Buffalo....no NIMBYs stopping it or anything, it's amazing! WNYers are WNY's biggest problem. Like how a rotting steel structure for all of eternity is better than a casino in it's place...

Too bad it was a rainy day.

Pssst: You sound suspiciously like an agent for Avant. Spill it! ;^)

L movie
Category: movies

So I got an email about showings of L movie.
Since there were get-togethers for the last two Death Note movies thought this was worth mentioning. A whole movie surrounding that guy? His character is so annoying!!

April 29 subtitled and April 30 dubbed at 7:30pm.

metalpeter - 03/26/09 14:49
I had no idea there was just a movie about him. That might be pretty interesting to see. Since I don't know the when I don't know if I all ready have plans but a when and a where would be cool to know.
