Let the Shopping begin!

Christmas is almost upon us and shopping is in the air. Went to mid valley two weeks ago to help Rose look for curtains. The deco in Mid Valley was not too bad. They seem to do a good job... especially last year and the year before that. This year it seems its a fairy land of something..... but once the fairies came out and started dancing... i felt a little scared... but i braved myself and tooke a few pictures of the fairies.... .....scary looking fairies....
Caught this guy in a shop window....and i just love what they did with pvc pipes in the background.... so...cool...


Mo Mid Valley in my next post.........

Beowulf

The tale of Beowulf has been told in so many ways much like Homer’s Iliad… … and so far I have seen three…

The first one I watched was a C grade Christopher Lambert movie called Beowulf. It was so cheesy and bad with its cheesy graphics and even cheesier soundtrack…… … and like cheese it was full of plot holes…… the only thing good about this movie was the introduction of Rhona Mitra…….. even with Rhona’s ‘offerings’ and Christopher Lambert’s silver hair… I give it a 2/10…and with that im being generous …..what’s with the science fiction twists lah? Sheeshkebabs!



Beowulf & Grendel caught me by surprise… I didn’t know much about it until I wanted to know more about Gerard Butler after his performance in the movie 300…… it was noted that he did well in this movie too… so I went and got it. Beowulf & Grendel was filmed very well and although it’s a myth and was made famous in a poem, it was however portrayed very realistically. Somehow the grammar in that sentence doesn’t feel right….. anyway I would recommend this movie with a 7/10…. But mind you it can get a little dull but intriguing nonetheless.

Now we come to the latest installment of the famous poem of this infamous Norse warrior. First things first…. 3D animation has come really far… it was just stunningly superb. Its really hard to see the difference between animation and reality especially the skin tone and body motion…. But I think the animation of ‘hair’ still needs some work…
The movie captures you from the get go and it’s a wild ride from there on after but they did change the story a little bit… I call this Hollywootism. First, Beowulf does kill Grendel’s Mother but it was rumored that Grendel had an offspring. Secondly he does not inherit a Kingdom. The Movie Beowulf & Grendel followed the story more faithfully but the 3D motion capture Beowulf was more entertaining. So it gets 8/10.




MO.....

Last Saturday My mum and sister took me and rose out for dinner to celebrate my birthday at Pizza Uno in Taipan... food was ok only.... but i have eaten their English breakfast before... and that was the bomb....
