After what felt like ages of watching movies in front of my lappy and television, I got to watch a movie on the big screen last night for free. YAY to Yani! LOL. We watched Doomsday and it was one hell of a movie.
The storyline was straightforward: A country (Scotland) was infected with a deadly contagious disease, so London not wanting to spread it, sealed the country with steel doors and put all the people of Scotland in the danger of being killed by the virus named Reaper. But, one girl managed to get out of the country with the help of some nice-but-not-hot-looking soldiers. After about 30 years, this girl (last name's Sinclair) is shown as a major, who is going to head a group of specialists to retrieve some sorts of antidote from the "no man's land" because apparently London has somehow caught Reaper and is spreading "like a rapid forest fire". So, Sinclair and five other officials go on a journey to their "Doomsday" without knowing what to expect. And what they saw there is certainly not what I expected.
Things I expected:
1. Abandoned streets : checked
2. Dead infected bodies : partly checked
3. Cannibal : checked
Things I didn't expect:
1. Narnia kind of setting in the country area of Scotland
2. Too many survivors
3. Beautiful green sceneries like as if there was no such thing as a deadly virus spread in that country. "Reaper? What's that?"
4. Cows? Lots of those in fact.
5. A girl that went "What's that?" when she saw a oh-so-cool car. (I mean she should know what's that since they were shut off from the world when cars were still around. It is dumb.)
6. Way too many survivors.
I can go on about how absurd the whole plot became after they entered the "no man's land" (which was so not true). But, thankfully, it was packed with comedy, actions and just-perfect-for-the-situation thrills. It is an entertaining movie to watch for, like once. I'd never pay to watch this movie. Maybe one very bad point of the movie was the many unanswered questions it left me with, like why Sinclair decided to stay there and seriously, why that girl was surprised by the existence of a car. And, I really hated those camera shots that gave me a slight headache after some time. These shots were especially used in the action scenes. The action was really good though, but I've seen better ones, like in Triple X and SWAT. Comedy-wise, gosh, the movie should be watched for its absurdity. Too many surprises that made me go "OMG!". Yani asked me how I will describe the movie in a sentence: "The movie should be watched for its absurdity." Like seriously.
And, Yani and myself shared a little special night walk together along Orchard Road after all the excitement and shrieking like high school girls in the preview theatre.
On a totally different note, I was greeted with three voice mails from James when I reached home. I mean the matter was pretty serious, but not so serious as to leave such messages on my voice mail. He sounded as if someone was trying to rape him or something. Not that that will ever happen...
I need more dosage of Bloody Monday manga scanlation! OMG! It is as addictive as Worst. Oh, and NEWS's Pacific album is the best! So so so....pacific.
I still am hoping to go Beijing.
Oh gosh, Four weeks of internship has passed so fast. And, I'm still unclear about my future plan. That can be quite scary. Sometimes, I just want to 'go with the flow', but won't that mean that I've lost to fate? Oh well, that was some random ranting.
Leah Dizon - I can spend the whole day listening to her songs! My current obsession is Leah Dizon and Thelma Aoyama. Both have soulful voices.
For the record, I've sustained a whole of 2 days without any Japanese shows. That's pretty sad. But, I can't get my Bitorrent to work! My computer is like superbly screwed up and I don't want to download using my lappy. So, I'm caught in a dilemma which leaves me feeling like a drug addict who can't live without his daily dosage of drugs. Just that this time it is not drugs, but Japanese dramas. Ah! I want to get my hands on Last Friends Episode 1! Oh my Nishikido Ryo.
I'd better fix the problem before next week comes. More dramas are going to be out next week! Namely Zettai Kareshi (oh my Mizushima Hiro!) and Gokusen 3.
Ah, I've yet to get around completing my articles and I've to attend an event tomorrow. Ah, so not looking forward for the weekend to end this fast.
LALALA. Old icons actually. I haven't been producing new ones. Gosh, I just realised that I spent the whole of last night anf today reading 'Worst' manga. That one is super addictive, I tell you. Tsukishima Hana is cute! I mean, his character. Ah, it'll be so nice to have someone so sweet around you the whole day. He's a sweet tough guy. *dreams*
