one prince of persia please.....

Wow.. and double wow. Tristan is hot... or was it Dresdan? And his older brother, i believe he was one of the men of Rohan in LOTR. and the other brother kinda looks like one of my barkadas. LOL

Anyway, lessons learned in the movie? yes there is. About brotherhood and sometimes people you trust are the ones who want you dead.

Fight scene was fantastic, the chase scene are excellent, i know there is a name of that technique, it is actually a street sport and this ain't the first movie that featured this certain technique. One movie who showed this maneuver is in a Vin Deseal movie and the other one was in CIS: NY.

Excellent stop motion technique when the dagger was used.

The actor, i forgot his name really fits with these types of roles. I believe he was Prince Alexander in the alexander movie. And i must say he looks hotter and hotter right before my eyes while i was watching the whole movie.

You know, come to think of it the king looks like one of the kings in LOTR and his brother is one of the actors at LOST.

hehe, I am not really good in remembering the real names of the actors.

I was expecting though that this movie was 3D, it could have been a great movie in 3D, specially when that snake jumped out from the underneath the sand.

Now, speaking of sand. The Assakasins (whatever) they are cool. They can manipulate sand and control snake. More like those kids in the SLytherin house. Their leader was quite handsome to even with his scar. You know scars can look cute. hehe.

Over all, the movie was not bad. Story line does makes sense and watching the movie kinda makes you think you have a game console on hand. It is so much like the game. You know, there was a scene that reminds me of the Assasins Creed game.

Best movie for Call Center Agents...

LOL. A nightmare of Elm st. you must be wondering i say its the best movie for call center agents. This is because the movie totaly fits the life style of a call center agent. Its normal for any call center agents to be awake more than 24hrs. I myself has experienced being awake for a full 3days not because of insomia, but because i need to have a life aside from taking calls and have people scream at me through the phone and taking crap with my supervisors and managers. lol but anyway, there are also good people in the call center business too.

Anywho, going back to the movie. We all know that this movie is a reboot from the old one back in the 80s. I do remember watching it when i was a kid. (lol i'v been watching horror movies since i was a child. no wonder i'm a bit insane lol) but really as the new movie says "Nobody remembers when they were five" That might be true, Coz i didn't remember freddy being a phidophile. All i remember is freddy in a killing spree. I also thought this is a gorey movie like SAW or Hostel. But its not really that gorey... a little slash here and there not really much gore so i could take it. I am planning to watch the old one, the original one. Coz i read somewhere that this reboot isn't really how the old one was told. But then again, people get confused between a reboot and a remake. Guys, those are two different thing, google it to know the difference.

Here's my assistment on this movie. It has the elements of an asian horror movie. (remember the hallway where nancy saw her friend chris in a body bag? thats so asian horror movie. Also the one in the pharmacy, thats also soo asian horror movie). But there's also the hollywood horror movie element. The screaming. *rolls eyes* hollywood horror movie isn't complete without the screaming. lol even though theres no point on screamming ^^j. Over all, i liked the movie. It has been years since i like a hollywood horror movie. These days hollywood seems to confuse themselves that the more chopping of body its the best horror movie. ^^j

In addition, i was surprised to see Micheal Bay as one of the executive producer of this movie. I mean, Micheal Bay.... all the movies he does has explosions. """ oh... there was the explosion when the parents burned Krueger in the dream of Quintin. Anywho, ending was hanging... so i think we are expecting a seguel. Now since freddy grabbed Nancy's mother in the end. So i'm looking that the sequel will be the parents turn to die. ^_^

Atleast his not sparkling... lol

The Vampire Assistant, one of the novels in Cirque de Freak. A mini novel that has been around for decades and has been reprented coz it has gain popularity again due to the movie. I haven't read the books though, but i know the books tackles alot about supernatural beings.

So on with the movie. There's your typical bestfriends that eventually became arch nemises. Darren became a vampire not because he wanted to be one, it was the price he paid for the life of his bestfriend. Unfortunately, greed and well being emo took over him and was easyly brainwashed by Mr.Tiny. Who wanted to create chaos to the world.

There isn't much about the movie. You get to see the typical freaks on a freak show. Now, most vampire movies are almost about vampires vs. werewolves. This movie, well they did have a wolfman, but what they were against with are their fellow vampires. It looks like there are two clans of vampires. One who are well groomed and sophisticated and the other one, they look dirty and smelly and they eat humans all the way.

Why i watched the movie? I didn't have anything to do that time. So i grab some popcorn and milk chocolate shake and watch as vampires battle each other.

This is a long mini series book, so i wouldn't be surprised if there would be another cirque de freak movie coming out in the future.

Solomon Kane

When I hear the name Solomon Kane what usualy comes to mind are demons. A mortal man hunting for demons. His like Hellsing.. a hunter of supernaturals but kane here just specializes in Demons. So, I said... I think I want to watch that. Besides, i like movies with demons,.. i am fascinated with demons. I wonder why. Ohhhkeey... so off i went to watch Solomon Kane.

Alright, typical royalty, since he is the 2nd child his father sends him to became a priest and his big brother to rule thier kingdom. Little brother don't like to be priest so he ran away from home and while doing that accidentaly pushed his rapist brother off the cliff.

Now, Kane grew up as a bounty hunter or treasure hunter and came accross a demon who wants his soul. According to the demon, his soul is already traded for for hell. (which until now have no idea how it happened. Like why was his soul doomed to hell. maybe i just need to watch the movie again and pay attention more closely) Moving on. He escape from this demon and seek refuge within a convent which he promised himself never to kill nor fight a man. However, he was thrown out by the convent. Head priest told him its not his place and he needs to go to a different path to seek redemtion of his soul.

Along his journy he met a family who was attacked by the forces of Malakai. The new overlord of the land.. and he is a sorcery. With the promise to save the daugther to the dying father (who actually died) he went to the journy to rescue her and broken his promise to his self that he won't kill nor fight. Along the way he has killed a lot of Malakai's horde.

Eventually he found out that Malakai has invaded his father's castle and that his brother was alive but under the spell of Malakai. I really don't know if he was under the spell or he just really hated his little brother for pushing him off the cliff. lol

Anywho, the movie is ok, i can't really say that they followed the graphic novel coz i haven't read it. I just know the name and well there was demons. Unfortunately there isn't much demons in the movie.. (sad) He looks cute though.. reminds me of the long haired guy in Brandon Lee's The crow movie. ^_^

Stark Vs. Hammer

Enter the biggest egotistic super hero in marvel. Ironman, tony stark... wonderfully portrade by robert downey jr. It was nice to see the same faces. Too bad the original actor of Rhodes could not join this sequel. I've read somewhere that its because he raised his talent fee. So marvel wer looking for another alternative given that his project nearly got pulled out due to the budget. I think they are making sure that they can keep Robert Downy as Ironman.

So, like Bruce Wayne, Tony Stark is an orphan. Instead of an old butler he has a sexy pretty private secritary Pepper Pots. Yes, the two are always compared at.. just search Batman vs Ironman in youtube and it will make you cry with laughter lol.

On to the movie. I was expecting that this was 3D but then again i was wrong. Marvel hasn't ventured into 3D yet. But rumors are flying around the internet that Marvel is looking into the possibility in making Captain America and The Avengers in 3D. Too late for Thor though coz they are currently shooting the movie already.

To much distruction, he trashed his house coz he got drunk on his birthday party and the whole Stark Expo blown to pieces because of the droids. *sigh* ah the millions and billions wasted, I guess he has insurance.

Beginning of his movie, Tony is dying because of some chemical reaction of his body with the current chest plate he is using. Saved by Director Fury (oh you will see a lot of him here) he was able to create a brand new element that could power an entaire city or country and is the answer to his survival.

Then there's the russian guy Ivan who love his bird... hehe I don't know if he died in the end but he took out a lot of beating with Ironman and Warmachine. And speaking of Warmachine... i didn't know warmachine was pimped by Hammer Industries. Oh yes, Hammer... his a dork. I believe he doesn't know anything about his company other then running it. He can't level with Stark coz Tony may not know about running a business but he knows what his company is developing. Besides, he has a very understanding private secritary.

Enter Natalie, the russian red hair. (was she russian?) anyway, i thought she was a villian, i was surprised that she was with the avenger.

In total, Ironman2 is ok. okey.. its great. But something is quite off with the movie. The screenwriter should have watched The incredible Hulk first before writing Ironman2. If he did, he didn't watch all through out that movie. Marvel has been tying down the movies that involves the Avenger Project. In Ironman2 it shows that Tony hasn't agreed with being part of SHIELDS "Secret Boyband" as he clearly stated with Dr. Fury. But in the incredible hulk movie it was tony who visited the general in talking to him about the avenger project.

Moving forward, we all know that what was found in new mexico is Thor's magnifent hammer. So thor is diffently the next. then Captain America then the Avengers. I wonder if DC will make a movie with thier Justice Legue to match Marvel's Avengers.



Here is Thor, played by Chris Hemsworth. As you can see, Marvel is going to stick to Thor's comic custome. For those you don't know Mr. Hemsworth, his the father of Capt. Kirk in the 2009 reboot of Star Trek movie.

Super Hero wannabes anyone?

So me and my sister decided to watch kick-ass after a dinner at Sofitel.

First time i heard about the movie "kick ass" i was thinking.. eh? Watchmen spoof movie? When i digged deeper and finally saw the trailer, i found out that it was not and it was more like an indipendent superhero movie.

So here was a geek who likes to qoute superheros. Love the scenes where he actually pointed out that he was not bitten by a radio active spider, nor escaped from a doom planet or his parents got mug and murdered on the streets. That was pretty hilarious. I think comic book geeks would love this movie. There are some truth in the movie though, setting aside the super hero stuff.

Admit it, you wouldn't help a stranger being mug in the streets. How many times has happened that someone died right infront of a call center building coz the guards didnt do anything but lock the doors and watch a poor fellow being mug and stabbed to death. Sometimes, it takes a hero to help strangers in need. Not only that, how about corruption inside the law. That is pretty normal. Policemen in the gang's payroll? really now.

Funny about this movie is the little girl. Wow.. love the way she handled the balisong. And love the way he saved his dad. She is a good actress in such a young age, she reminds me of Dekota Fanning in her younger years. And really does this picture look familiar? Yes, for those otakus. She does look like Kite.

In the end, you would see that we might be expecting a Kick Ass two. Which is already at the works. Maybe we will be seeing Red Mist as a villian in kick-ass2.

Release the Kraken....!!!

Clash of the titans. I watched it in 3D, because well i wanted to experience 3D and i had fun watching Avatar and Alice in 3D. Lets just say i got used to watching movies in 3D these days. I haven't watch the Clash of the Titan back in 1981, heck! i wasn't even born yet.  But according to my research, the 2010 movie isn't the same as the 1981. However all the actors in the play as much the same. Except with Hades, he wasn't in 1981. Back in the 80's it was the sea goddess Thetis who wants her son to marry the princess. There was no Zues going emo other his creation (which is us humans).

Ok, so much for the 1981 movie... lets move on and go to the 2010 movie of the clash of titans. The movie was full of action, nice fighting scene specialy in 3D. Custome design execelent they really look like those people back in the olden times. Cinematography, ok. However, as a self proclaimed greek mythology researcher (yes i like to learn about myths, specially about the gods and goddess of all old civilation) i couldn't help notice that the story line is quite off from the real deal. But the 2010 movie is much closer to the real greek myth of Perseus.

And oh... all through out the movie i have been staring at Hades. He looked cute with all his darkness. Bah... no wonder he looks cute... he was played by Ralph Fiennes. In fairness, Fiennes and Neeson really looks like brothers in this movie. ^_^ Both are sooooo cute.
