I love this animated adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic by Wes Anderson! It’s nothing like any Pixar or Disney films. It’s brilliant. It’s witty. It’s imaginative. It’s something both young and old, wise and innocence will relish.

I love it! I love it!
It’s not a love story. It’s sad. It’s funny. It’s warm. It’s a story of boy meets girl.
I love the soundtrack. In line with the playfully unorthodox nature of the film, the soundtrack featured a host of offbeat artists, including Regina Spektor, Feist, Black Lips, Doves, Carla Bruni, and The Smiths!
I am in love and yes, I totally agree with my sister, I am glad Tom found autumn.
It’s a fashion documentary. An invitation to the mystical world of fashion. A documentary decoding the mystery in bringing a Vogue issue to the newsstand.
Anna Wintour’s office is like a wonderland and my dream wardrobe! Anna is like a Pope in Vogue- well respected by fashion followers in America. This documentary brought new perspective to me about Anna Wintour. It seems to me that underneath her strong, cold and glamorous self, she is very much lonely in her big big world. Her siblings find her job amusing while her daughter thinks people who take fashion too seriously are hilarious. Instead of working her ass off for fashion, her daughter would very much prefer to be the one laughing.
Through her body language in the show, she seems very protective of herself (the way she crossed her arms) and the way she speaks of her family, it seems as though she’s taking pity on herself? I don’t know. I guess anyone would appreciate some family support even women who appear strong-willed and all.
In the show, I got to know another strong character – Grace Coddington, Creative Director of American Vogue. Grace is one woman whom I respect after the show. She is strong, stylish, passionate, expressive and very human. It’s a pity that she’s like a shadow in the presence of Anna Wintour.
I must be the only female in her tweens, teens or twenties who have not watched Twilight. Yes. I know. It was launched in 2008. HMPH.
I actually like it! I am blushing. GRR. No I do not fancy guys with pale face or blood red lips but the words coming from Edward Cullen’s lips were all so romantic.
# Fav. Line 1
- Edward Cullen: I don’t have the strength to stay away from you anymore.
- Isabella Swan: Then don’t.
# Fav. Line 2
- Edward Cullen: I… I feel very protective of you.
# Fav. Line 3
- Edward Cullen: I hate you for making me want you so much.
# Fav. Line 4
- Edward Cullen: It’s like you’re my own personal brand of heroin.
With lines like these, I don’t think any girls can resist falling for Edward (minus his pale face and red lips)! My heart breaks whenever I see how painful he looks. GOSH. I hate myself for blushing and swooning like a sixteen year old for a fictitious character too young for my liking!
Watched the Gala Premiere of Alvin & the Chipmunks 2 yesterday all thanks to the free tickets from my company!
The storyline was mediocre but the Chipmunks and Chipettes were way too adorable! I was given four tickets and my sister’s friend Marcus came with us too!
Sci-Fiction has never been my favorite movie genre. I am more of the chick-flick and “Ooo, give me the brainless movies” kind of girl. But James Cameroon’s latest creation wowed me with the beautiful digital images and reality-reflecting storyline. You must be wondering what has Aliens got to do with us, the “Sky People”. Haven’t you heard of greedy corporate figurehead robbing people’s lives and homes for money and wealth in reality? In Pandora, the greedy corporate figurehead together with the restless Colonel moved forward their ruthless extermination strategies, killed native tribes and robbed them of their peaceful home and heritage for precious materials.
SIGH.
This show is good for both genders! There is a beautiful love story and a happily ever after ending! HAHA. Go watch it! 4.7 / 5 stars!
I’ve watched The Princess and the Frog and was rather disappointed with the tragic (Exaggerated for special effect) ending the princess got herself into even after marrying her prince. She spent all her life savings to set up a business and had to work really hard for the rest of her life!
I know I know. I heard your BOOS from afar. I heard you, Feminist. Yes, I heard you, worrying parents whose only wish for their girl is to not grow up like me having wistful dreams about meeting their prince then live happily ever after and the end, without all the hard work. I know. I know. I mean, a girl can always dream! I dream, I dream, just one day, someday just any day, I’ll meet my prince, live happily ever after and be happy always and the end without all practical activities to keep up with reality.
*PI-AH*
Right. Wake up the idea Serene! I’ve got to learn from Princess Tiana! To save up and build my own dream that is to see the world and be happy always!
On a side note, the voodoo magician and his friends from the “other side” are a little creepy eh?!
Remember a while ago I wrote a post about a talented local singer – Jean Tan? Cowboy Caleb thinks she is good too!
I got a pair of free tickets to the sneak preview of Ninja Assassin from my cousin and so I brought my baby brother along for the show. After eating BK (kids love fast food huh?!) we headed straight for the show.
And I took the usual, me with the movie poster picture…
… and after the picture taking, my brother calmly said, “This show is M18.”
M18!!!!!!!!!! He is freaking 15!!!!!!! AHHHH.
I tried and failed terribly in trying to sneak him in and so we were literally kicked out of a free movie. Gosh. This is the most depressing day of the week but we made another couple happy. One man’s loss is another man’s gain.
URGH.
Remember a while back I got some cheap DVD/VCD from a bazaar sale? I finally found time to watch it. The American Dreamz is the most, THE MOST, retarded show I’ve ever, EVER seen. THE MOST RETARDED. I can’t believe Hugh Grant actually agreed to be part of the show. His cute factor just went down by 32 points. I’m in shocked. I can’t even pull myself together to share the storyline with you guys. It was just BAD. Don’t ever, EVER, watch it. The worst part of the show? They freaking blow up Hugh Grant. Like BOOMZ. EXPLODE! OMG! I can’t believe this.
