Thanks to the generosity of a good friend, I got the chance to see an advanced screening of Martin Scorsese's latest expression of his obsession with Leonardo DiCaprio, "Shutter Island". While I would not say that I hated the movie - it certainly has quite a bit going for it - something about it just did not seem right to me. It probably did not help that the only seats available in the packed theater were in the front row, so what I remember most about the experience is having to strain my neck and eyes to see DiCaprio's giant scowl for a little over two hours straight.

I apologize to any regular readers for my absence. I could say that a series of complications have prevented me from updating over the past few weeks, but that is not entirely true. What is true is that I spent a weekend at Ohayocon, an anime/manga/video game convention, where I cosplayed and attended a few panels and took some pictures. I would now like to share my experience with you.
