2009

new year Pictures, Images and Photos

2009 is right around the corner.

I have a pre-New Year's Resolution.

To go to a damn New Year's day Countdown.


2008 was a shitty year for me. Yes, real bad. Imagine the worst thing that could happen to a person, now divide that by like a thousand you sicko. There. That was how bad my year was. However the year was filled with lots of events; I still find it hard to believe that I was in school this year. That feels like eons ago.

This year I did alot of things; sometimes it's hard to keep up with it. I have never done as much as I've done this year. Recap:

(1) I like drove around alot :| Haha well that aint much is it? Actually I drove my brother and mom around, like a driver. School, tuition, classes, and other shit.

(2) I learnt alot of stuff. Healing, flakking, Economics (my lecturer was hot XD)

(3) Went to college, discontentedly. Naw, college is fun :D Glad, I am.

(4) I found more skeletons in my closet this year. Yeah they just keep on coming.

(5) I collected my SPM results. Hey, this was a big event in my life.

(6) Tutored some. My student got an A in Maths. Congrats Nadzmin :D:D:D

(7) Bitched and was bitched on a-fcuking-lot. I mean, a person can only be cussed on so many times before he/she cracks don 'cha think? Yes, I cracked too.

(8) I lost a few people in my life. Friends and family.

(9) Found out more about the world we live in. Not the physical, convoluted place we call Earth - or the Universe if you will -but the bigger picture, broken down to simple meanings and rules that...Oh never mind, you wouldn't get it anyway. :D (Refer to header)

(10) Ah, the tenth thing. Well the most -for want of a better word- complex part was the transition from being a high school student to being a university student. It seemed hard at first; everything had to be independently done. But now, as I look back at what I was then, I go: 'What the fcuk is wrong with that motherfucker? Is it so hard to fill up a damn form to hand in?' Seriously. Forms were a chore for me. 'Chore' is putting it lightly. It was grueling, like killing your granma!

(11) I missed school alot. A hell fcuking lot. But now I do not. Definitely not.

(12) I met awesome people. And asses. They keep coming and going. Fat bitch needs to go. ;) *prepares rifle*

(13) I was blamed for alot of things. :| Hmm they were not my fault but still others' per se. Ah screw it.

(14) More skeletons.

(15) More secrets.


2008 sucked. I hope for a better year in 2009. I'd better get what I want. Or somebody's gonna pay. *cocks rifle*

The day I was nearly abducted by aliens

If science fiction, alien themed, X-Files-ey movies were the suck (which they are) then The Day the Earth Stood Still would be, er... well, the suck. No, that movie is worse. At least The X-Files piqued my curiousity at one point. This was just... totaly brain inactivity for 105 minutes.

Deck the halls..



... with bounds of holly, FA LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA~ ~

Tis the season to be jolly, FA LA LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA~

Sigh, Christmas was just over. Don't you just love it?

What do we love about Christmas;
Does our delight reside in things?
Or are the feelings in our hearts
The real gift that Christmas brings.
Joanna Fuchs

Take a look at the Christmas tree over here. Does it not emanate comfort, warmth, and happiness? Lightly decorated with red and gold baubles and some ribbon, lightly wrapped around to make the tree look like a Christmas present in itself. Under it, presents are cramped, randomly arranged. Gold, red, white: magical colours for the eyes to feast at the beginning of Christmastide.

The whole concept of a Christmas tree is so captivating, enchanting, and definitely not overrated and hyped. A Christmas tree is so beautiful, that when you see one, admiration takes over your whole body, the warm fuzzy feeling just creeping up your spine taking base in your shoulders, where comfort generally rests. So resplendent, the sight of a little tree in the living room housing presents which kids are so eager to open in the morning, over a cup of eggnog or what not. No one can escape the captivating glow of the lights, falling on the baubles, tinsel, and stars. They shine with dazzling perfection under the lights so much so that they look like vivid gold nuggets and rubies. A Christmas tree is simply perfect, impeccable, no matter what it is decorated with.

Christmas Eve is an incentive, building up the excitement for Christmas day itself. Inducing a belief that has lasted two millennia, Christmas Eve is even celebrated albeit on a smaller scale, probably on a personal or filial one. It is more of a countdown, where people wait for the clock to strike twelve, while prepping for the next day, the big day. On Christmas eve, I was so full of the Christmas spirit, I felt like dancing, extending my happiness and joy to others who did not feel the same way. However, I think nearly everyone was filled with the same joy; UTAR was filled with seas of Santa Claus' caps on peoples heads.

Christmas is awesome, I feel so happy on Christmas (though I have no reason to celebrate it). But do I really need a reason? Do WE really need a reason? If you ask me, Christmas is a time for expression of love for others, bliss, elation, joyfullness, and definitely a time for giving to others. But receiving is an added bonus as well XD. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.


Peace on Earth will come to stay, when we live Christmas everyday.

Chain Mail

Here's a view of my email inbox for ya:



Notice the e-mail count in my inbox? Yeah .This is because my inbox is filled with shit like this: (adapted from Alexander's post Forward Forward Forward)

(1) Case 1:
Omg Omg this is soooooo true!
Here's some story from other people that delete this e-mail after they'd read it,
Mr./Ms.Fake found dead in his toilet bowl(or anywhere) after he deleted this e-mail.
Mr./Ms.Example had been dumped by her BF/GF after she deleted this email.
Mr./Ms.(whoever) blah blah(bad news) after he/she deleted this email.
You will be attacked by a bear if you delete this email.
This ghost will like haunt the fuck out you if you delete this email.
You will get bad luck if you delete this email.

:| Omg omg I have never forwarded those e-mails. Looks like I'm doomed to be dumped, attacked by a bear, and haunted with bad luck, and dead in a toilet bowl right after. Pfft!
To those who created such emails in efforts to bullshit the fuck out of us, you could have made much better use of your time by jacking off. You have probably lost a few thousand brain cells just by sending that email, let alone typing it out.

(2) Case 2
Did you guys ever receive a kind of e-mail that said:
AbCDefGhIjKlMnOpqrStuVwxyZ..
Scroll down.............(weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee)
And make a wish (I wish for this and that)
Then you'll see a big word "STOP".
If you forward this e-mail in XXXseconds to XXppl, your dream will come true in XXXminutes.


Get real, assholes, of course it will not come true. They forgot the pixie dust. *rolls eyes*

(3) Case 3

This is Billy Gate.
I'm giving free money!
If you forward this e-mail to XXX ppl, I'll send you XXX$$
Because I'm just THAT dumb!
After fowarding, please send this e-mail to XXX@abc.com.
Because we are just THAT gullible!
In XXdays, you'll receive XXX$$ check.
Because we are just THAT ready to give free money!


I would love to send a chain mail to all the people who forwarded emails like this. Then the whole world will see how stupid they are. In fact, I think I will create a mail that goes like this:
"Attention: AAA was hit by a boat while she was playing in the street. We need urgent medical assistance for her, and my wife and I conveniently can't afford the hospital fees. Please forward this email for XYZ.com has promised us 3 cents for every email forwarded. If you do not forward this email, my daughter will return from the dead and haunt you till you end up dead in a fish tank. If you forward this message to 3 to 5 people, she will go poltergeist up your ass. If your forward this message to 10 to 15 people, she will appear in your nightmares. If you forward this email to 20 people and above, she will leave you at peace because she also conveniently knows (while in her comatose state) that when each person donates 60 cents, the multiplier effect will cause the sum of money collected to reach about only 100 bucks, which not even a tenth of the fees we have to fork out to pay. So yes, do forward this message to everyone you know. Thank you. And oh yes, Billy Gates is giving out money too, so remember to forward this message!"


I don't know why the last picture came out so shitty.
Alex is my muse :)

Of fucks and sucks, bitches and dick-es, shits and clits.

fuck you Pictures, Images and Photos


Cursing. I think I've mentioned this before. Click here to see a related post. Or else, read on to see a more interesting post.

Cursing. It has been a convention for people in anger since...er...like really long ago.
:|

Yes, as I'm sure your less illuminated self (relative to me of course) knows, people curse all the time. A simple thing you say can end up being a curse. For example, a most virtuous saint may miss a step and say "Oh dear me", but that guy has already cursed right there. Curses take different forms depending on the usage of different words at different time. There's no fixed nomenclature. Let's take a look at significant curse words over the years.

Sometime long ago: Gee-willikers, Oh dear, etc etc etc, more lame etc

Sometime in the '60s, '70s, and '80s: Shit, Damn, Hell, slightly more interesting than "Gee-willikers"

Now: Fuck, slut, whore, pussy, etc etc, how fun :D
Some people get their panties in a twist when they hear people curse. Exhibit A: Grandmas.



Grandpas not so much, Grandmas twitch at anything uncouth.

It all comes down to this. There's nothing wrong with cursing, goddammit. XD I mean fuck it, if you need to make a damn point, and vent your ruddy frustration on a thing, just fucking do it. Why should what you say be the crux of embarrassment, just because you used a word that is fucking associated with vulgarity?

Cursing is a means to make a point. Case in point:

Person 1: Where's the spoon?
Person 2: In the sink
2 minutes pass
Person 1: Where's the spoon again?
Person 2: In the fucking sink.
Person 1: Oh yeah...

Notice in the conversation above that the addition of the work "fucking" added emphasis to the fact that Person 1 was retard to begin with and could not understand a simple answer such as "In the sink". So yes this is one of the functions of using curse words: You get to emphasize your point(s).

When you curse ("Oh shit!", "Damn it!", "Fucking hell!", etc) it makes you feel better. People curse to vent their anger in a less physical manner, that is to say, in a verbal manner. Now, they should not have to worry about whether or not their cursing will hurt the others around them because its their fucking mouth 'aint it? If others are so damn sensitive, tell 'em to go live in the North Pole where fairies, elfs, raindeers, and Santa co-exist in harmony.

But did I say cursing is not rude? Cursing is rude, and there are some people that you are just not rude to. Get it, or die; I 'aint elaborating.

All-in-all, there is no all-in-all. Die motherfucka. :D

Yes, there was no talk about clits. I just needed something to rhyme with shits.
Alex thinks I'm cheap. :D :D :D

Henry Ford got it right.

"Quality means doing it right when no one is looking"
-Henry Ford


Damn right it is. The moment someone puts their eyes on it, the quality is lost because the person who's working on it tries to impress the person whose eyes are on it so then it's called shit.


The Movies Suck Pictures, Images and Photos

How many of you notice that the sequels to movies almost always suck compared to Part 1 of the series? Yes I see you nodding in agreement.


Let us look at an example. Charlie's Angels. Good lord, the sequel was absolutely f***ked up. Click here too see a related post

Now Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle was just stupid. I mean after watching that movie I discovered that those girls were REALLY talented. Like wow :| From disguising as sluts, to driving huge-ass trucks these Charlies Angels tackled new frontiers to the extent of human abilities. In addition to the examples I gave above, Charlies Angels could go kung-fu on your ass, drive (fly, steer a ship, you name it), fall on bricks and glass and not get killed by accident (by the way, this really takes the adage "Sticks and stones may break my bones.." up a whole new level: Sticks and stones may break my bones, but guns will never kill me), and speaking of guns, I understand Kevlar, but falling from the top of a building and not breaking at least one bone is ludicrous. Look we know you're tough, but still.. =.=||


But then again, that is not my point. My point is, the sequel was "Throttled" to the point of mediocrity. I guess producers like to add some oomph to the sequels that they produce, thinking that the viewers have the IQ of a child and will sit through such nonsense. People who sit through exceptionally stupid sequels only do it for the eleven bucks they paid to watch it, trust me.


The basis that producers are working on is the fact that the sequel to a movie needs to rock, better than the first part. But sometimes, less is more. :)


Now you may be thinking "Hey! Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers rocked. You suck!" or "I liked Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban!". Let me tell you retards two things:

(a) Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban sucked

(b) These sequels were based on effin books. Your argument is deplorable right there. You've been pwn-ed by the greatest mind of all time: Moi.

Generally, viewers like Part 1s better than the sequels to movies. Why? Simple. Producers tried too hard to make a nice movie, that they spoiled it. Here are a few sequels that sucked, relative to their Part 1s:
No, you know what. They all suck. But somehow, Part 3s rock :)

People, find me a thing.

I need a thing.

Everyone has something.

I don't.

Is it ignorance? Hmm, maybe.

But still, I need a thing.

Get a thing for me, minions.

Mamma Mia! : Here I go again, with a movie review


Wow, Meryl Streep really outdid herself in this movie. Aside from the fact that her acting was top-notch, when I say she "outdid" herself I mean she was really really really active. :|

She hops here and there, shouts, screams, laughs out loud, does mid-air splits, jumps on her bed, dives into the sea, and falls God-knows-how-many times. I nearly thought she was not over sixty years old. I mean, if my mom did half of what Meryl Streep did in this movie alone, she would have slipped a few disks if you know what I mean. Touch wood. :)

I totally agree with the casting of Meryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried as mother and daughter. But Pierce Brosnan? How awful it was to see him act in such a flick, let alone sing in one. He pulled it off nonetheless. *shudders*

However this movie would have been nicer to watch if it were not for the people screaming for joy in the background during a joyous song. I mean, I could not hear what they were singing and could not savour the effect of the song because of the background singers and all that. A word of advice to the director: This is a movie, not Broadway. And I mean that in the nicest way. :)

But if you ask me, the movie was very fast paced. It just wooshed from scene to scene and the songs came as fast as it went. However one song that took its own sweet time to pass was "The Winner Takes it All". I felt like killing myself waiting for her to stop singing. 8-|

My favourite songs in the film, arranged in order of least sucky to teh suck:
1: Mamma Mia
2: Does Your Mother Know
3: Honey, Honey
4: Lay All Your Love On Me
5: Slipping Through My Fingers
6: When All Is Said And Done
7: The rest pretty much sucked. Naw they were good, but I did not enjoy them as much as numbers 1 to 6.
8: The Winner Takes It All XD (Teh Suck)

It's the end of September

Yeah folks, September has come to and end. You may ask why this little bit of general knowledge is significant. Well, it just is! And also because I'm bored. Tsk tsk =.=

Californication


I've just finished watching Season One of Californication and it is Awesome (with a capital A). I was introduced to this show by some unimportant being and it seems that I'm the only one she knows, besides her, who likes this show. Funny :|

This show is awesome because I say it is. There is not definite moral value learned at the end of each episode; it is more of how this writer copes, or rather does not cope with the shit in his life. He is a sarcastic, sometimes depressed, irritable alcoholic who makes his way through each day with the help of his daughter and his ex- ... er ... ex-whatever (technically they were never married so she is neither his girlfriend nor his wife), who is with another man. He loves them so much but still finds it easy to sleep with a different girl each night. Hot women must be his anti-drug I guess.

His shortcomings and flaws notwithstanding, he is a very lovable man. The two people he loves the most in his life are his ex-whatever and his daughter, who he treats better than anyone else. It's nice to see a man with such vices care for people. :) OK he's not that bad; He just has issues to deal with. Trust me, it's easier to watch than it is to explain.

Nice show, good plot, good actors/actresses. 3 thumbs up.
The Golden Globe says so

There's something about sambal ...


Does it not look dangerously good? <:) Absolutely. Sambal simply has an air of delectable goodness resonating around it, while looking hazardous in that resplendent red colour. This condiment, which originates from Indonesia and is famous in its country of origin, Malaysia, The Phillipines, Singapore, and (this surprised me) The Netherlands. Like wtf right? :D

I simply love sambal and thought of posting something about it today after experiencing a jam-packed sambal day. Unfortunately, I will not tell you about my day, a topic which I am truly against because the goings-on of my day-to-day life is not a matter of your concern.

Sambal is like chili con carne minus the disgusting beans plus a delicious ingredient that makes it so much more different from chili con carne. One of the things that differs between chili con carne and sambal is that tortillas can be eaten with sambal while chili con carne cannot be eaten with other Malaysian dishes simply because it lacks a necessary feature: the absence of effin beans. While beans may not necessarily be an ingredient of chili, sambal still differs from chili, though the recipe could have been derived from the Mexican/ Spanish dish chile con carne while the Spanish ruled Indonesia.

Spain, while scouring the Indonesian lands in search for what it had to offer, taught the Indonesians a thing or two about Spanish cuisine. In no time, they were dishing out Indonesian cooks who were experts at Spanish cuisine. One of them brought chile con carne home and it was it a hit with the village. Hence, as people learnt the recipe, they altered it to suite their taste buds, and voila: the birth of sambal! This is a little fictitious tale which I came up with while I was typing paragraph 3 so don't mind me. :P

Sambal is also the main ingredient of Nasi Lemak, a side dish of Fried Noodles, and other delicious dishes that will get me talking more and more about how much I love my country for being multi-racial. :D

Oh yes, sambal is also available in many variations, not just in its plain, ordinary, old self. There's sambal ikan bilis (anchovy sambal), sambal udang (prawn sambal), sambal sotong (squid/ calamari sambal), sambal belacan (belacan sambal) etc. If you noticed the slight pun I've included here, do let me know. :)

More new-age bullshit.

I've been hearing people say this for over a decade, which makes it new-age to me. Have you heard it?

"Study smart, not hard"
I would like to advise you people out there, who use this saying as part of your day to day prayer, believing that you will get an A the moment you say it. My advice is: You suck.

You may think studying smart will get you somewhere, but doing it without effort will get you nowhere but back at the chair and table where you started studying. Let's say you sat down at the table and decided to "study smartly" for an hour. So you study, using all your smart techniques and and shit like that. At the end of one hour, what do you have? Brimful of nothing in your head? Well it depends on how smartly you studied.

What's my point here? Well I guess this saying has been bugging me a lot. You see, when people tell me their exams are next week / tomorrow/ etc., I conventionally wish them "Good luck and study hard" and they get all smarty-pants on me an go "No, it's study smart." Then I have nothing to say to it because it's like as if a fistful of mud was thrown at my face. However, being on higher wavelengh of intellect than everyone else, I go "So what? You're still going to be failing the paper. What's the difference if you study smart, or hard?" to which they reply "Soo baaad."

Studying hard has benefited me more in exams than studying smart has. Studying smart has helped me prepare for presentations and assignments more than studying hard has. So I think I will be orthodox for once and side with studying hard. :)

Don't say Study Smart if you're not studying smart. But ultimately you'll be busting your ass off to study for your finals tomorrow so Studying Hard rocks. Woo-hoo.



Footnote: The blogger just finished his final exams today, hence he is feeling unusually high and happy.

It's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness

Bullshit. Listen up ambivalent assholes, curse the darkness all you want, tell it to "Go to hell" or "Fuck it's mom" or whatever you deem appropriate at a moment of panic, vexation, frustration, anger, etc. But of course, light the candle after you're done.

:P

My point here is it is not better to light the candle only, because you can't channel your rage/ panic/vexation/ frustration/ anger into some form of closure for yourself. If you let it all out, then it's gone forever, never again will you think about it.

But then, don't be stupid ass and do nothing about the cause of the panic/ vexation/ frustration/ anger. Solve the problem there and then, and move on. Light the candle.

Heath Ledger In Memoriam


He's gone. But his legacy will carry on forever. He shall be known as the man who made a difference in his acting, a man who pushed himself to the limits for each role he carried, a man who dared to be, a man that would play all that he fucking could, be it a gay man or a psychopatic maniac.

Heath Ledger is gone. I still find it hard to digest these four words. I cannot stand knowing that a man with great caliber is never going to be around to flaunt his skills on the silver screen again. It's just so bloody, fucking-ly, excruciatingly sad.

Heath Ledger, you da man. Your performance in The Dark Knight was awesome. Your best work if I may say so; however that is yet to be decided, not until I've watched The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus (which I'm sure will top The Dark Knight XD).

Heath Ledger, You Da Man! We'll never see you on the silver screen again! omFg! *cries*

Stupidity in Kollywood.

I'm watching a Tamil movie called Anniyan (Onion), and I tell you: IT IS A FUCKING STUPID MOVIE. =.=

omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg

Seriously I cannot explain it because it's stupidity is unfathomable. The concept is good, but the portrayal is worse than mediocre. Giving it Mediocre status would be like Simon Cowell complimenting Keith Beukelaer on his singing. OMG that guy was the shit (Keith, I mean). hahahahahah

So yeah, besides giving themselves a God-awful name, the Tamil movie industry has once again managed to purge out more shit. Firstly, what's with the name? KOLLYwood? Why KOLLY? I'll tell you why. They were carefully observing Hollywood and they noticed that Hollywood was dishing out some pretty good movies. So they decided to emulate Hollywood's concepts and style, merge them into their own movies, and voila: a super smash hit! Or so they thought....



Look I don't mean to be so blunt and all, but they seriously need better methods of portraying their ideas. Don't get me wrong, I've seen many Tamily movies that are good, and I mean really good (not relative to English movies, but intrinsicly good- storyline, acting, blah blah blah, the full works). Hey, the world isn't split into Hollywood and sucky movies. Besides I ain't that much of a bigot. haha

I would like to be more detailed about this but this will take up alot of my time, not to mention posts. So yeah, just trust me on this; I know I'm right. ;)

PS: I would write about Chinese movies, but I don't watch them. With the exception of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon of course. Haha. Hmm, Chinese movies, well I guess the most obvious thing is the ability of the dudes and dudettes to fly up a roof or a tree in a couple of movies I've seen. Haha, but this is supposed to be about Kollywood, not Chinese movies.

PSS: Did I mention the existence of Mollywood and Tollywood? Hmm, another time maybe.

People disappoint me. : |

People suck you know? Yes, they really do. I mean, there aint a more revolting species that the homo sapien. Being the so-called superior species among all in the world, they sure seem to be making a myriad of mistakes. Gosh even baboons know where to scratch their asses better than humans do.

Humans make mistakes. But do you know other animals don't? I'm talking in the sense that they know what they want and they know how to live and they are totally independent of human beings. Yes, animals are smarter than human beings. Let me give you some examples:

Dogs



Yes, dogs. They are THE MOST LOVING, CARING, PROTECTIVE, and not to forget LOYAL friends in the world. Yes, siree, I don't consider my dogs as pets. They are my friends, my doggies, my babies, and what not. A dog is the only thing on Earth that loves you more than it loves itself. A dog would never give you up for something else. Here are a few sayings by people that explain more about dogs.

The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail
instead of his tongue.
-Anonymous

Dogs love their friends and bite their enemies, quite unlike people,
who are incapable of pure love and always have to mix love & hate.
-Anonymous

There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face.
-Ben Williams

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.
-Josh Billings

If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you;
that is the principal difference between a dog and a man.
-Mark Twain

Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.
-Roger Caras

Dogs are cute. I rest my case.
- Jonny




Cats

Nah, cats are as dumb as humans, if not more.

Ants

Ahh, here's an interesting species. The ant is commonly known for its ability to cause pain to a human being for getting in its way. That shows you who da man really is. What? "But I kill 'em the moment they hurt me" you say? Well, sir, I dare you to put your hand into an anthill and try and kill the ants. Hah!

No seriously, ants are dead helpful. Do you known if ants and all those other little critters did not exist, the Earth would crumble and break? Yes, these critters which we take for granted and squish the hell out of dig in the ground and help with the circulation of air in the ground. So yes, respect the ant and let it have its way.

But that is not the point of this post. As a great guru once said: "The ant is the uber-pwn." Anyway, the ant lifts fifty times its own weight (how many humans you know can do that?), they are extremely hardworking, they are born leaders, seriously people its all in the movie A Bug's Life. Do watch it. :)

Any other animal you can think of?

All animals on this world are able to live exclusively without the help of human beings. They are independent of us and expect nothing from us but just for us to leave them alone. But no, we hunt them, kill them, etc. How would you like it if someone killed your mom or dad huh? Ate your brother or sister? Took a piece of your grandma as a souvenir? You like it?? Well then I'll start hunting humans from now on. =.=

Why do humans act like as if they own the planet? Because they are the more superior species? Nonsense.

Anyway, My point here was to highlight that animals are so much more useful than humans. Humans appear on Earth, suck up all its resources and leave. Blood suckers. =.=

PS: If you have read this post up to this point, and agree with what I say, then you don't suck as much as I thought you did. Now since you agree, we gotta go vegan. HAH, hesitated didn't ya?

Fussy about Fagotry.

Seen a fag lately? Hated what you saw? Well then you suck.

No, I'm not a fag, and no I'm not part of some pro-fag support group. I am just indifferent. You see, many people just hate being around fags (Yes I'm using the politically incorrect term), and they complain and bitch about fags.

Seriously people, suck it up and move on. Let me ask you, Why are you straight? Your reply would be "Uh, I dunno I just am." Well that's it. "Fags are just fags." There aint nothing to it. How can you "just be straight" but not them?

You freaks may be struggling with accepting this piece of logic. Okay let me break it down for you. While we straight dudes grew up liking girls, those gay dudes grew up liking guys. How? They just started liking guys, damn it! And fags are just fags, they can't help but be that way. You may like doing things a certain way, and so do they. You cant hate them for what they are.

You can get all religious and shit, but it aint gonna do no good, you hear? I'm not gonna get all technical into this religious part, because I don't want to bring up sensitive issues. ( Damn you Heathens! )

Let me tell you what you can hate fags for. Normal stuff! For being asinine, proud, rude, disgusting, irritating, selfish, and about all the other stuff you can hate people for. You should not hate them for being gay or faggish. It's not their fault they are that way. Yes they choose to be that way, but only because they feel comfortable being that way. Just because the rest of the world found one acceptable way of behaving, does not mean that their ways are wrong.











All these complaints about faggots, its just bigotry.

Why so serious?



THE DARK KNIGHT MOVIE REVIEW!

Is there another word to describe this movie besides:

"AWESOMEROCKININCREDIBLEFANTASTIC
ABSOTIVELY-POSILUTELY-SPLENDIFIROUS
"
?

No, there isn't. So there you go, the entire movie review in (relatively) one word. Muahaha.

Ok, actually, the movie wasn't all that good...... Naw, man it was AWESOME! Ehem... I mean, it had it's flaws (yeah well, which movie doesn't?). What was good about this movie was that it did not have just one climax, climaxes were spread out through out the movie, which was not such a good thing per se.

Let's start from the beginning. The started off in a not-so conventional way, quite opposed to the usual Batman beginning, where they show off a few parts of Batman's body, fully dressed of course (in the previous Batman movie, Batman and Robin, they actually had the audacity of showing us some crotch, ass, breast, and what not, fully dressed of course. :) ) Anyway, this movie (The Dark Knight) started off not so conventionally, I won't mention how so as to leave a little suspense for those who have not watched it. F.Y.I if you have not watched it, all of us who have watched look down upon you from a higher level of consciousness.

Anyway, if you ask me the best parts of the movie are all the scenes involving The Joker. Seriously, you don't get bored with him; there is some form of humour, thrill, darkness, evil around him (or her : OOPS theres a little spoiler for ya XD) Yes, folks, The Joker, probably the best character in the film. Sadly, they spent most of the movie focusing on the sissy Batman and how sad he is, that he is losing to the Joker, which is not even highlighted very clearly in the movie. It's like... The Joker goes "Oh Batman, blah blah blah or else blah blah blah (throw in a psychotic laugh or two)" and then Bruce Wayne's all sissified and going "Now i see what I have to become to stop people like him." Of course we DO know what's going on but in a movie, we should be taken step by step through the plot, ya know what I mean?

And it was sooooo irritating to see The Joker winning throughout the movie! Hahaha it was fun but still irritating, no doubt. I mean I was like "When is this guy gonna slip up and get his ass beat?? =.=" Oh don't get me wrong, he DID get his ass whacked loads of times... but it wasn't getting to him. Like wow. I salute him. :X:X:X:X:X:X:X. The character of The Joker was just soo awesome, ladies and gentlemen. He was the ultimate bad guy. He was the UBER-bad guy. (Hah managed to slip that word in somehow).

Hmm what else did I miss? Batman was a sissy...Joker was TEH man... Rachel was a pussy.... Alfred was useless, Harvey Dent.... OH YEAH him! Well his character was a complicated one. Really kesian him one... One last little spoiler? You won't be seeing anymore of Two-Face. Muahahahahahahaha! But The Joker will be back. He is TEH man!

Congrats Heath Ledger, and my condolences. XD

Our Essay.

Well today we had a small activity to do in class: a narrative, of all things. *rolls eyes*

This is what we came up with.

After my graduation, I took a clerical job with an insurance company. The job was extremely unpleasant and I found myself among some annoying people with whom I had nothing in common. However, things changed when ‘she’ came in.

Initially, I was under a lot of pressure from my supervisor. He expected top notch work and I was but a beginner in this field of work. I made mistakes, a lot of them, and always ended up being shouted at and blamed for the shoddy work. My colleagues stayed away from me because they did not want any ‘screw-ups’, as they put it, in their work. I found myself sitting alone for lunch and being sort of a bell-boy for the office workers.

Then ‘she’ came. I had not met her in many years. We were friends in primary school, but she move to boarding school after Primary 6, and I had not met her since. In school we did not talk much to each other; just a little nod of acquaintance to each other as our eyes met.

She recognized me the moment she laid eyes on me. I, however, was taken aback when she approached me because I have come a long way since Primary 6. I’ve grown taller, thinner, and ganglier. I kept my hair long and dyed it brown. If my own grandmother could not recognize me, I did not see how she could, but she did.

She said “Hi” in a less than formal fashion and introduced herself, thinking I did not remember her. I told her of course I knew her and she was glad. We started talking and she told me about her life after Primary 6. There was something about her that captured me, something that made me want to listen, to listen more as she spoke. Was it her smile, her smile that made me feel like I was floating on the clouds of heaven?

We started talking everyday and became closer as each day passed. Life at the office was not as dull as before, in fact I was better at my job. Everyone stopped avoiding me and became friendlier towards me. Even my temperamental supervisor congratulated me for a job well done after I successfully completed two projects. It was like the “Productive” switch in me was flicked on and my attitude towards work completely changed. I was more willing to learn and always checked my work trice before finalizing them. I always believed that it was with her presence that I was able to do better; without her I was nothing.

Without doubt I started t develop feelings for her. We became very close and I hoped she was feeling the same way for me. I decided to open up and express my feelings to her, to let her know that I have been slowly falling for her. What would she say? I needed to know. I invited her to lunch one day at and exquisite restaurant. She was surprised with my invitation, but accepted nonetheless.

I pictured the scenario of how I was going to break it to her, imagining her saying “Yes, I feel the same way.” That blissful thought was punctured by the phone call I received from her the next morning. She told me that she knew of my feelings towards her, suspected many times as we had those wonderful lunchtime chats. When I invited her to lunch her suspicions were confirmed and she told me she could not let me fall for her. She wanted to end our friendship, which she treasure so deeply, lest it grew into something more. Before I could answer, to defend my standing, she hung up the phone.

Since then, I have not received any news from her, nothing at all. Funnily enough, my job performance was not affected in the least, though I thought it would have dropped if she was not there with me. I did my job just as well, as if she was there beside me, giving me the power, the confidence, the poise one needs in the corporate world. I will not forget how she changed me, helped me to become a better person, from a depressed newbie, to a dynamic and fruitful worker.

I constantly asked myself, what happened? What was all that about? Why did she come into my life, full of laughter and gaiety, and then leave so abruptly? Our time together was so short, perhaps I acted too impulsively. Was it too quick a decision to make about a person who I knew so little about? Questions after questions formed in my mind and no answer could satisfy them. However, I was always sure of one thing: how I felt about her to moment I saw her.

She was a phantom delight,

When she gleamed upon my sight,

A lovely apparition sent,

To be a moment’s ornament.



Too bland? Thank you very much. :)

Here's information for ya

Rain is the uber - suck

Yes, the suck. The absolute suck. Rain is a bane on my life. Rain continues to ruin my life. Rain continues to fall at times when I am prepared for a good day. Rain continues to fall at bad times. Rain continues to fall in the morning at 5am when it's not even Sun-out yet. Yes, folks, Rain sucks.

Here's something informative which you will never find out from anyone else. Rain sucks. Yes, I hate rain. I hate rain so much that my hatred towards it is infinite. Infinite. I'm sure you are wondering why I hate rain so much (if you're not, you should), even though scientific evidence has proved that rain is integral in our lives. Photosynthesis you say? Temperature of land? Aquatic life I hear you voice out? Sure, it's important to them! To us? What? I heard some ass say the earth will be too hot without water. Let me direct your attention to something called air conditioning smart guy. Too expensive? Get the mint to produce more money and use that excess notes to pay for the air conditioning of the Earth. You know, when you don't have water anymore, all those extra costs you use for water treatment, can be used for air conditioning of the Earth. That way, it will be cold in Malaysia as well. Wouldn't that be nice?

Just take rain away from my life, please. Thank you.

'Twas that time of the year. Now it's July: Informative Month

June wasn't that good a month for me. Neither was February, March, and April. May was okay though. Hmm. On New Year's Eve I always wish for a good year, but at least ONE month of the year will suck for me.

Come to think of it, since I was, er.... 13, I've never had an extremely good year. I've always had at least ONE month that sucked. As in, sucked to the very bottom pits of hell. And it gets worse every year. This year really takes the cake though, as it was one of the most painful experiences of my life.

Why am I blogging about how I feel? Ew. I think this month I will post blogs about informative stuff. To widen my knowledge, and all those knowledge-building crap as well as making me sound like a total smart-ass. :)

I love nothing

Empty Post.

Desperate for something to do

I need a thing.
Thinking

Seriously I do.

Everyone seems to have a thing they are good at, do you notice? Jonny is an expert nerd, Yvonne has her anime which she knows like the back of her hand, Jie Juan has his guitars, Nicholas is the master of DotA, and what about me? I have nothing. Nada.

Sure, I may have a few hobbies like playing one or two games here and there, watching one or two anime, practicing a little bit of my guitar, etc but none of these things are define me you know?

Let's take a look at some possible things:

Comics

Sounds good? Probably. I like reading comics anyway. I could start a collection. XD

Guitar

Yes I have a guitar but first I need to find the time to practice. :(

Anime

*laughs*

Online games

Nah, not interested.

Young political analyst

Politics is interesting you know, I realised this fact after following the Malaysia General Election that just passed and also through following Hilary and Obama's campaigns for presidency. Haha.

Health freak

Ew, getting up early in the morning to go jogging around my area and practicing a healthy lifestyle? Sounds tedious.

Computer nerd

No no no no no .... I'm not that interested in computers.

Movie buff

I'm already sort of a movie buff aren't I? Sort of, not a real one. I could take this further... *thinks deeply*

A spiritually inclined freak, perhaps?

Meditation was fun, but I'm not ready to make it permanent. Nuh-uh ...



You know what? Screw it all. I'm just going to be my plain ol' self. I love myself the way I am anyway. Right?

Er ... right??
=.='

I love my blog :)

Here is one thing I love besides myself: My blog.

onion head

You might ask why but the answer is obvious. Who doesn't love their blog? And most importantly, who doesn't love my blog?? Anybody who says that they don't like my blog is either doing out of spite after seeing this post or hasn't read my blog yet.

onion head

I can't stress this point enough. I LOVE MY BLOG.

I hate the Harry Potter movies: Part Sept

Okie dokie chokie mokies. We've reached the end of my I Hate the Harry Potter Movies series.

Here are some funnies for you guys to digest. Oh yes and one last thing I want to point out before I close is this:

Hermione likes to defy Harry alot doesn't she? Take a look at these lines.

Harry Potter: [sees a strange reptilian-like horse] What is it?
Ron Weasley: What's what?
Harry Potter: That. Pulling the carriage.
Hermione Granger: Nothing's pulling the carriage, Harry. It's pulling itself like always.


It's obvious Hermione's hiding something, the way she was defending the fact that the carriages pull itself. What are u hiding, Hermione? Hmm ...

Harry Potter : There's something behind the curtain
Hermione Granger : There's nothing behind the curtain, Harry.
Harry Potter : Do I look like a effin' retard? Something's behind the friggin' curtain!
Hermione Granger : There's nothing behind the curtain, Harry.
Harry Potter : [steps on Hermione] Die bitch, DIE!


PFFT.

I've decided not to post the funnies, since you can see 'em in Photobucket. So yea, adios!

I hate the Harry Potter movies: Part Six

Well folks, it's the 29th of May and my series of posts about the Harry Potter movies is now coming to an end. But that doesn't mean I won't be writing anymore. You can be sure I will publish a post about the upcoming Harry Potter movie right after catching it. :D

Anyway I've run out of things to complain about the movies. I've basically touched on every aspect that I hated. There were too many lines for me to include in these posts so I posted the few that I could come up with.

Now if there are any opinionated Harry Potter fans who have read my posts, and think that the movies did not do justice to the book, well, I am going to give a few pointers here directed to them.

Now if you noticed, in my posts, I did not mention anything about "the movie doing justice to the book" in the sense that the movies did not follow sequential incidents in the books and the like. Well let me explain why I did not talk about this.

Because it is not relevant. A movie is a movie. It is not a book. It cannot be a book. You cannot have the same experience watching a movie as you can reading a book. A book can be more flowery, more descriptive, more personal, and (obviously) longer. This is Common Sense 101.

You cannot expect and in depth view into the mind and thoughts of the main character in a movie as you can in a book. It is hard to show in a movie what the main character, or any character for that matter is thinking at a particular moment, though in a book the writer will explain what the character is thinking. This facilitates the reading process and makes reading the book much more enjoyable.

So for those who think "the movies did not do justice to the books", I have this to say to you. Suck it up. It cannot be exactly like the book, so what? What are you going to do about it? If you were the producers or the director of the movie then you will understand the conundrum they are in.

In my posts I explain, not what they did wrong in relation to the book, but what they did wrong in terms of common sense, plot outline, lines, and characters, etc. I don't believe that the movie can be one hundred percent like the book because the the movie needs to fit certain criteria.

Criterion number one is, of course, timing. A fast reader takes a couple of hours minimum to read a book as thick as Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. A slow reader would take a week or two, maybe even a month, some never. So how do the creators of the movies condense such a thick book, filled with loads of information, and characters and make a movie that doesn't run for longer than two and a half hours? Quite a conundrum they are in aren't they? Yes.

Basically it all comes down to common sense and practicality. How well they plan the movie so as to keep the lovers and the haters coming back for more. :) I sure as hell can't wait for the next one to come out. I'll be the first one in cinemas to watch, I'll make sure of that.

Oh and one teensy little suggestion? You (creators of the movies) should have divided every movie after Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban into Parts One and Two. Then you would have been able to make more scenes, and most importantly, more money.

But who knows what's going on behind the scenes right? If I have thought these things, I'm sure they would have thought it long before. They know better because they are over there doing all the work while I am here, shaking my legs at four in the morning and criticising their work. Haha

Somehow though the movies are doing extremely well in the box office.
Kudos.
Really, Kudos! *grins*

Coming Up:
Goodbyes are said

I hate the Harry Potter movies: Part Cinq

Let me show you more ridiculous lines from the Harry Potter movies. Hopefully I will be able to find more topics to write about from them.

Oh wait!!! I remember something from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban! Remember the Gryffindor common room? In the first two movies, the common room was found at the end of a hallway. But the room has moved in the third movie. On top of that they've replaced the Fat Lady with a Bitch Lady who cannot help but be an irritating squawking dog. Once again, the change was not relevant. :)

Alot of changes were made in the Prisoner of Azkaban, changes that were unnecessary and irrelevant. Here are a list of things that were changed in the movie:

1. The Gryffindor common room and dormitory
2. The Fat Lady
3. The Whomping Willow (size and location of the tree)
4. Location of Hagrid's hut
5. Dumbledore *grumbles*
6. Malfoy's hairstyle
7. My anticipation towards watching the Harry Potter movies

Anyway, moving on to those lines.

But you know something? Isn't it just wierd how they are always talking so god damn fast? I'm lucky I understand because I've read the books but for those who haven't I expect it's hard for them to grasp what they (the characters in the movie) are talking about. When I watch it with people who don't read the book, they usually go "What are they talking about?" and I have to explain, being the good samaritan that I am.

Take a look at this line:

Professor Moody: The Goblet of Fire is an exceptionally powerful magical object. Only an exceptionally powerful Confundus charm could have hoodwinked it! Magic way beyond the talents of a fourth year.
Igor Karkaroff: You seem to have given this a fair bit of thought, Mad-Eye!
Professor Moody: It was once my job to think as Dark Wizards do, Karkaroff. Perhaps you remember.


Professor Moody said all that very fast, so who in the world was suppose to understand that someone had hoodwinked the Goblet? I mean, there should be a standard speed of speech in movies so that people who some kind of hearing problem will be able to understand and comprehend fully what they are talking about.

Professor Moody: Alastor Moody. Ex-Auror, Ministry malcontent, and your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. I am here because Dumbledore asked me. End of story, goodbye, the end! Any questions? When it comes to the Dark Arts I believe in a practical approach. But first, which of you can tell me how many Unforgivable Curses there are?
Hermione: Three, sir.
Professor Moody: And they are so named?
Hermione: Because they are unforgivable. The use of any one of them will...
Professor Moody: Earn you a one-way ticket to Azkaban. Correct. The Ministry says you are too young to see what these curses do. I say different! You need to know what you're up against. You need to be prepared...
[as he turns to the blackboard again, Seamus ducks under his desk]
Professor Moody: You need to find another place to put your chewing gum besides the underside of your desk, Mr. Finnegan!
Seamus: [whispering] No way, the old codger can see out of the back of his head!
Professor Moody: [throws a piece of chalk at him] And hear across classrooms!


In this scene too, Moody introduces himself way too fast. Sigh, when will they learn?

Professor Moody: [mocking Hagrid] 'Marvelous creatures, Dragons, aren't they'. Do you think that miserable oaf would've sent you into the woods if I hadn't suggested it? Do you think Cedric Diggory would've told you to open the egg underwater if I hadn't told him first myself? Do you think Neville Longbottom, the witless wonder, could've provided you with Gillyweed if I hadn't given him the book that led him strait to it?
Harry: It was you from the beginning! You put my name into the Goblet of Fire! You bewitched Krum!
Professor Moody: You won because I made it so, Potter! You ended up in that graveyard because it was meant to be so! And now the deed is done! The blood that runs in your veins runs within the Dark Lord! Imagine how he will reward me when he learns that I have once and for all silenced the great Harry Potter!


Yet another scene where Moody is speaking very fast. I mean, come on! The mystery is finally being solved here! Everything is coming out into the open! He should speak slowly and clearly so we can get it.


Sirius Black: [in his letter] "Harry, I couldn't risk sending Hedwig. Since the World Cup the Ministry has been intercepting more and more owls, and she's too easily recognized. We need to talk, Harry, face to face. Meet me in the Gryffindor Common Room at one o'clock, this Saturday night. And make sure you're alone. Sirius. P.S...?
[the bird bites Harry's hand]
Harry: AH!
Sirius Black: "The bird bites."


Sirius couldn't send Hedwig? He couldn't send Hedwig? Whose owl is Hedwig? Harry's or Sirius? Pfft! *rolls eyes*

Voldemort: Don't you turn your back on me, Harry Potter! I want you to look at me when I kill you! I want to see the light leave your eyes!
Harry: [facing Voldemort] Have it your way!
Voldemort, Harry: [both shouting together] Avada Kedavara!/Expelliarmus!


Aww, how brave and chivalrous of Harry Potter. *wipes teardrop* As if a boy of his age will look into the eyes of the most powerful -and not to mention evil- wizard in the world and say "Have it your way." The book is much more sensible.

[after the dragon has run into the teachers stand]
Fred: [yelling] Well done dragon!


Promoting a sense of rebellion and payback into the minds of the young ones eh? Good job.

Professor Moody: [points to a mirror in his office] That's my Foe-Glass. Lets me keep an eye on my enemies. When I see the whites of their eyes, it means they're right behind me.
[a trunk in the office rocks violently, and a low moan comes from inside]
Professor Moody: Wouldn't even bother to tell you what's in there, wouldn't believe me if I did.

Do you remember at the end of the movie, they found Professor Moody (the real one) inside the trunk? He was far far below at the bottom of the trunk, like as if the trunk was a huge room or something. Remember that? Okay with that in mind, how was he able to shake the trunk violently hmm? Not possible right? Right.

Hermione: Ron, you spoiled everything!


This is what Hermione told Ron after their fight during the Yule Ball. He spoiled everything? But I seem to recall everyone else having a good time, Hermione. Maybe you're too self-conscious that you consider "everything" as your own. So if he ruined "everything" that means he ruined your time did he not? Why are they trying to make Hermione sound like a know-it-all bitch? She really isn't you know.

Hermione: Ronald would like me to tell you that Seamus told him that Dean was told by Parvarti that Hagrid's looking for you.
Harry: Is that right? Well... what?
Hermione: Uh... Dean was told by Parvarti... please don't ask me to say it again. Hagrid's looking for you.
Harry: Well you can tell Ronald...
Hermione: I'm not an owl!


Once again, their efforts to make Hermione look like a bitch succeeded. What kind of friend would help one friend but not the other? She was willing to repeat Ron's message again to Harry but she did not even wait to listen to Harry's. On top of that she shouted at Harry and not at Ron. Do you see what I'm trying to convey here? The scriptwriters need a serious kick up the you-know-where.

I hate the Harry Potter movies: Part Quatre

The movies suck so much on so many levels. I-I just ... cannot stand it!! Phew. I just don't understand why the movies are not structured properly. Why? Why?

The first movie was directed by Chris Columbus.


Doesn't look so bad innit? It actually looks quite magical and believable as a fantasy film. The movie was not so bad either. I actually liked it very much. I liked seeing them in the castle, studying magic, and Quidditch! Ah... Quidditch! Hmm.. what else did I like about the movie?? (I'm becoming one of those bloggers who note each of their thoughts) *back to normal self* Anyway, this movie was not bad, it was actually good. Okay I've mentioned that. Argh! I liked it okay? I was just good. There were a few things I didn't agree with but those things are trivial and overlook-able.

The second movie rocked. Yes, Chris Columbus was the director.

Gahh ....! I cannot put into words my feelings towards this movie!!! I was simply wunderbar! It was dark and scary and just fantastical! Sigh...~~~

The third movie was directed by ... *grunts* Alfonso Cuaron.

The series just went downhill from here. Look at the poster. The wind effect lost its touch long ago people, let alone using it on these war-minded teenagers.

Till today I'm still trying to figure out why Chris Columbus handed the movie to Alfonso Cuaron, of all people! Y Tu Mama Tambien (a movie which was directed by Monsieur Cuaron) wasn't all that great you know. It had nudity and all the naughty things children should not see. (not that I watched it ... *blushes*) Er ... anyway ... Why Mr Columbus, why? Why Cuaron?? What does Cuaron have in his repertoire that proves that he is suitable to direct a movie of this genre??

He changed alot of things that were in the previous two movies you know. The Whomping Willow somehow shrunk into a normal sized tree standing, not "in the middle of the grounds" but by the slopes of the hills around Hogwarts. Okay this is a little complicated for me to explain but I cam going to do it anyway. I agree with Mr Cuaron's concept for the Whomping Willow. Yes I do. I agree with the concept of the tree itself. Columbus made the tree a freaking huge one with clubs for branches. I just couldn't agree with that. Cuaron made it better. But WHY did he have to move the bloody tree? The tree was in the middle of the grounds! Leave the thing there! He shouldn't even have changed the shape of the tree. Columbus made it retarded so leave it. Why could he not do it? Incompetency is what I call it.

Another mistake, and this is quite prominent too, Hagrid seemed to have moved to a new home didn't he? From the hut he had near the school building in the first and second movie, he moved to a hut further away from the school, down below the sloping lawns. Was that really necessary? Seriously, was it? The Forbidden Forest was always behind Hagrid's hut, so why the sudden move? Why?

Thirdly, *ehem* why have their uniforms changed?

Photobucket Photobucket

Notice anything different about the uniforms? No? Fine. But I'm not explaining either.

And while we're on the topic, why the ruddy hell aren't they wearing uniforms in the movie?? They are not wearing their uniforms in most of the scenes, as opposed to the previous two movies where they always wore uniforms, since they ARE school students and they ARE in school and stuff, you know.

What else wasn't right about this movie? Hmmm ... Oh yeah! Did anyone check out the werewolf? What in the world was that bloody creature? Did Monsieur Cuaron even read any books on werewolf, let alone look it up on the internet? Here's how the werewolf was portrayed in the movie:


Now compare it to this creature:

thinking alittle to hard
Me thinks there's a strange likeness.

Next, did u notice that the whole ambience of the movie feels different from the first two? I certainly felt different when I watched this movie. It didn't feel the same. This point is hard to explain so I don't expect you to understand. :P

Next, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, directed by Mike Newell.


Sigh, once again, the wind effect. What is with these people? Try a different approach for goodness sake. You dare to change the movie so much from the previous three but when it comes to picture time, you decide to remain orthodox, not that the first two movies used this effect, but STILL ... once is bliddy enough!

So what was wrong with this movie? Everything! Every single thing! From the beginning where Harry wakes up in Ron's house to the end where the other schools depart from Hogwarts. Where do I start? Let's start with the prominent mistakes made by the creators, or rather, the director, since he takes all the credit for the movie.

Let's talk about Professor Moody. A little bit too much don't you think? When I watched the movie I couldn't help but think "Is he on crack?" I mean, did you see the way he was acting? He wasn't growling, he was shouting! Shouting at students and throwing chalk at them. Growling is something, but shouting is taking it too far. Acting roughly with students also is taking too far. But they equalised this with him being a total lunatic (SPOILER) at the end so they think it is okay. But I do not.

When Moody made his entrance in the Great Hall, there was thunder in the sky. Upon seeing this, he points his wand to the sky and casts some crap to it and the thunder goes away. Uh... relevance? None? Yes.

And since when does Hermione have the nerve to shout at a teacher?

"Stop it! Can't you see its bothering him? STOP IT!"

She shouted at Professor Moody when he was torturing the spider and simultaneously causing Neville uneasiness. Tsk tsk Hermione. She should have been put in detention. Firstly for shouting at a teacher, and secondly for refusing to answer his question about the last Unforgivable Curse. Bitch.

Secondly, why does Professor Moody say "Professor Sprout tells me you have a knack for Herbology" when Neville puts up his hand to asnwer a question? What? Did I hear you answer "Because that's the style of incompetent scriptwriters who simply love to include irrelevant lines in the films?" Correct.

"Eternal glory. That's what awaits the student who wins the Triwizard Tournament." These were the words of Professor Dumbledore when addressing the students at the start-of-term feast. So the student who wins this tournament will be forever happy and joyful eh? Then why does Cedric Diggory get killed despite winning the Triwizard Cup in the end? And when I say win, I mean he got past all the obstacles and managed to get the Cup which was located in the middle of the maze (the object of the Third Task). So he touched the Cup, got transported to a graveyard and was killed by Death Eaters or possibly the most evil dark wizard of all time, Lord Voldemort (this wasn't explained). If that is how one attains eternal glory, boy, I'd rather stay miserable for the rest of my life. But hey, Cedric could be up in heaven enjoying his eternal glory right now couldn't he? Bless his soul.

Here's another thing. Did anyone notice that only the people who we saw put their names into the Goblet of Fire (not including Harry and Fleur) were chosen as Triwizard champions? Also not including Fred and George whose applications were rejected due to their being underage and all. Did you see anyone else put their names into the Goblet? I think not. Even Krum who put his name into the Goblet with Karkaroff beside him did it by himself. None of his other schoolmates put their names into the Goblet. Could the makers of the movie not show more people putting their names into the Goblet? No they could not. Why? Incompetency.

What's with the dance rehearsal with Professor McGonagall eh? McGonagall is actually teaching the Gryffindor students how to dance. Once again, this is a question of relevancy. Yes? No.



The next movie is Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix directed by David Yates.



Sigh......... what can I say about this movie? The fighting scenes were awesome! The first time i saw it I was in awe... Kudos Mr. Yates.

But like all the others, there were mistakes here and there. I think I have highlighted some of these mistakes in my other posts. So there's no need for me to mention them here.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows are disasters waiting to happen. And you bet your bucks I'll be there to report it if they are. :D

Coming up:
We'll see what I can come up with
