whoa - version 3 already?!
Not really.
But the four-part ad series was really gripping, and kept me watching. I’m not a target audience for this particular product, but hell - I’m sure girls, metro guys and ladyboys would be more than persuaded to at least try out this product. =P
(props to my sis for pointing me to them)
The Dark Knight premieres today. Caught the premiere at 9.40pm, 16th July - one day after taiko’s birthday.
But why, you may ask - if it’s a Batman film, why the hell did I put a poster with Joker as the opening pic? No, it’s not because the actor Heath Ledger died and I’m doing a tribute. No. It’s because he’s more or less the star in this film, overshadowing even Batman. He did an awesome job portraying Joker as a genuinely insane character. So rest in peace bro, you did an awesome job and went off with a bang.
Just do a Google imagesearch. You’ll be scarred for life. (assuming you’re not familiar with evil net memes like goatse and lemonparty and 2girls1cup etc - search at your own peril)
And to further prove my point, quoted from Roey (random MSN convo):
[14:41] Roey: yo
[14:48] Roey: Roey has nudged you!
[14:51] Roey: wanna go watch Hanpenis?
Sneaking in bottles of coke lime which have been alcohol-treated is fun. The elixir of happiness has this way of making a person view a movie in an entirely different light. Of course, one does not remember the details… But meh, details.
Anyway, the movie was fun. Lots of really lame and slapstick humour, but the beauty lies in the execution. They have been masterfully timed so that in catches you off-guard. Expect to laugh nonstop. I did something along that line. I’m sure it’s that funny.
Or maybe it’s the alcohol.
Here’s the obligatory promo poster so that you know what I’m talking about. And the IMDB link because I’m feeling especially nice today.
You may or may not know that there are two different versions of the above poster. The other one has Steve Carell’s tie covering half of Anne Hathaway’s… face. Needless to say, I can’t be arsed to post that version.
Yes, Anne Hathaway is awesome. She’s officially my favourite actress. I like Alba, Scarlett and Megan as much as the next guy - but Anne Hathaway just owns all. She just has this really strange aura of attractiveness (and hawtness) to her that I really really really really really really like. Plus she saved a shitty gay cowboy flick from being a flop. Single-handedly.
First, let me put forth my argument:
…not convinced?
I now put forth decisive evidence.
Your honour, I hereby rest my case.
Haih. Didn’t make the premiere for Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World’s End. Busy, no car, no money. Not a good combination when a film sequel to one of the most popular franchises currently is showing. Even worse still - the cinemas were packed full like nobody’s business. Punya sial.
Finally made it last Saturday night (26th May). Yeah man. Every person is garr for Captain Jack Sparrow, whether they admit it or not. He is, regardless of whatever people say, the epitome of coolness. Wootages. Screw Orlando Bloom.
The third instalment of this trilogy is about Captain Jack, his best friend Barbossa, a man (Elizabeth Swann), a 15-year-old girl (Will Turner) and friends sailing the seas - first to rescue the good captain from Davy Jones’ Locker, then to capture the heart of the tentacle-crab-hentai-monster Davy Jones. Oh, and go to war with a million ships (or something along that number). It’s like 300. With pirates.
At first sight, this film may seem like a potential potong steam as people kept saying it was 3 hours long. Actually it was only 2 hours 30 minutes or something along the line. But length of the film made me fear that this is another floppy trilogy climax like Spider-man 3. I’m glad this film proved me otherwise Continue reading ‘Garr Ye Landlubbers~’
Wow. Just holy, fucking, wow.
Transformers are coming to the big screen on the 4th July 2007, but I’m excited already. Anyone old enough would have most probably watched, or at least heard of the famous Transformers cartoon series. Flash back to two or three years ago when my physics teacher was teaching about transformers (the electric one) and then suddenly mentioning Autobots and Decepticons - and me being the only one grinning while the others held a puzzled look. Damn, I felt like a total geek. A really cool one.
And so why am I suddenly so hyped up about this upcoming film when I’ve already heard about it for a long time?
The final trailer for the film is out.
Hell. Fucking. Yeah.
Holy shit. The screwed up part about this whole thing is that I actually, as a Spider-Man fan (I even spell his name right, dash and all), missed the premiere date for Spider-Man 3. By 2 days. Shit. Only the night before was I sitting near a TV and suddenly seeing a Spider-Man 3 trailer - and screaming “WTF IT PREMIERED YESTERDAY?!?!?!”.
All is fine now.
I’ve watched it. Continue reading ‘Spider-Man 3!’
