3 movies in a go...

Thank goddess the friend i meet today is really Valerie.. Haha.. and i just know that she got a blog and she read my yesterday's post.. Opps..How did she even has this address? Oh yeah, friendster!! Sianz.. Haha.. Sorry Valerie, my fault.. but i did guess correctly that it is YOU.. haha

Anyway, saw Malcolm again at Jurong Point.. His company moved the roadshow to there.. I think i see him till i dont want to see liao.. (actually only saw twice lah) I think he will like working at JP since Audrey stayed Jurong West mah and they can meet each other easier..

Realised i forgot about Val's birthday last week so i bought her something today.. We went to Life bookshop cos i wanted her to help me pick a present for my friend.. During the process, she saw some books she liked too so i just took one and bought it for her, along with a bookmark.. heehee... She was like thanking and thanking me, and i only got two words for her then.."Shut Up".. haha.. Rude hor.. No lah, cos movie is starting mah...

Btw, i saw the trailer for "Harry Potter 4" today.. not much different from the one on the web.. think it is a teaser trailer.. i hope there will be a better one.. :p Also saw the trailers for "The Island", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "Wedding Crushers".. All looked quite good.. I want to watch!!!

On my way home, i went to Popular Cd Rama to buy the cds i reserved cos the renovation is next week so must clear the stocks liao.. Spent a freaking $182 on the cds and vcds.. OMG.. I am siao liao.. I think i will die a pauper.. Confirmed one.. Still got some reserved books to buy.. sob sob..

Anyway, i watched 3 movies in the past 24 hours.. Let me reflect on what i thought of them..

1. Constantine (DVD)

Basically, i am completely wowed over by the effects in the movie.. The storyline is interesting.. Although i didnt quite catch it in the first few scenes, like not understanding what is going on.. And I found a new celebrity crush.. Keanu Reeves!! He is soooo cool in the movie.. And i enjoy watching everything, from the humor (yes, there is humor..you know) to the horror..

I like the last 2 scenes the most.. The one where he stood on the roof and he ate chewing gum with the lines, "I have to die twice to understand that God has a plan for everyone (not the exact words cos i cant recall..hee)". So true.. everyone has a plan by Him and let's just learn to accept it. I also like the last scene, shown after the credits where the apprentice who was killed reappeared with wings and flew to heaven... I predict there will be a sequel to this movie and i can only hope it is just as good..

Oh ya.. there is an actress that i really pity cos her scenes were all deleted out..She should have like 2 to 3 scenes with dialogue.. Ended up become only one scene.. not even scene, of showing her face once and she said "holy water?".. So ke lian.. Life is unfair..

2. A Lot Like Love (theatre)

This was what Valerie and i watched today..Poor me had to pay half her tix.. haha.. plus i was really busy trying to finish the horrible box of popcorn i bought (which i literally finished.. alone)... Man, i'm going to be fat.. Back to the movie..

As FF and Ah 9 had said, it is a nice show that ppl can relate to as it is in our everyday lives.. I wasnt really touched till i cry lah cos i can somehow predict how it will end.. no need spoilers.. i closed one eye also can predict.. And that is so sianz...

3.Kungfu Hustle (VCD)

The one mistake i make today is to watch this last.. After watching 2 good movies and doing comparsion, this movie turned out to be pretty lame for me.. It is not that it is bad or anything but i cant relate to the show.. I dont understand why there is this or that.. the way the plot went is so not logical.. At least, the previous Stephen Chow movie on kungfu soccer, i can still understand...

Overall, it is still okay.. a guranteed laughter film, that dont need you to think.. Good when you are stressed from all that thinking already.. And good for a gal and a guy who are not a couple to watch... cos you can just laugh and laugh..

I realised that recently most of the female bloggers i like to read are posting really serious and intelligent stuff, like Anna for example... I wish i am like them, having the ability to spout cleverness into the words they typed.. But then i think about it and i realised that the day i seemed to type serious posts means that i am either pissed off by someone or very very angry at something.. And that is bad. So i think i better save my strength and just type my simple thoughts out.. It is easier in this way too :p
