Alex Wan: i can marry tmrw la if she shows up

actually, not just today.

Being a HUGE fan of Neil Gaiman's, I can't wait for his story, Stardust to be told in a movie form.

Me thinks Claire Danes as Yvaine was perfect.
The cross-dressing pirate, Captain Shakespeare is played by Robert De Niro, personally I would much prefer Johnny Depp aka Captain Jack Sparrow. Love him but we'll see how De Niro carries it off.
And Ian McKellen (Gandalf from LOTR) as the Narrator - brilliant. Love his warm, grandfatherly voice. Another favorite choice of mine, Morgan Freeman.
Not too keen on Sienna Miller as Victoria but we'll see.
And then we have Michelle Pfeiffer who is finally back taking the role as Lamia, the evil witch!
I'm just so excited!

You know I have a feeling Mr Tay won't wanna watch this with me.
He hates fantasy / magic / prancing fairies / dark faeries kinda movies.
Hence, I didn't get to watch Pan's Labyrinth, waiting for DVD now

Stardust - Coming to cinemas near you ~

Neil Gaiman didn't quite like the tagline they are using, "Stardust. This summer a star falls. The chase begins."
Neil said, "My own suggestion, "Stardust. It's not a sequel to anything," was appreciated but, probably wisely, rejected."
Personally, I think I prefer the first one. Hmm.

Oh you don't mean no nothing at all to me
No you don't mean no nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free

Oh you could mean everything to me.

Mr Tay and I watched Apocalypto yesterday and it was mindblowingly astoundingly brilliant.

Directed by award-winning director, Mel Gibson, only he could pull off a film in a total foreign language and produced it so wonderfully good.
In Passion of the Christ, he had the whole film in Aramaic which he did the same for Apocalypto, but in the Yucatec Maya language this time.

I'm not doing a full review about it but I just have to say this.
I couldn't help feeling SO FREAKIN' ANGRY throughout the movie.
Mel's brilliant in this matter, I feel.
In Passion of the Christ, I couldn't stop tearing and this time, instead of just sadness, I felt anger building up in me as the story progressed on.
Mr Tay could testify to the fact that I had numerous outbursts yelling, "HOW COULD THEY DO THIS!", "YEAH, KILL THAT BASTARD!" "OMG, I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW COULD ANYONE BE SO CRUEL!!!"

It was THAT gripping for me.

The Hero

Mr Tay made one very interesting statement while watching it.

"Notice how we human glorify the great architectures of the Angkor Wat, Pyramids, Hanging Tower of Babylons, Great Wall of China, etc... saying how magnificent they are, where in fact these exact buildings were built entirely by men or slaves captured and forced to just like these people in Apocalypto. So, do we still glorify these so-called 7 Wonders of the World?"

That's something to ponder on.

Watch Apocalypto, if you haven't.
Dubbed as The Most Powerful Film of All Time, click on the link to read about it.
Or just go to Wikipedia la.

That's all about this wonderful film, while I go do this:

Apocalypto - Goofy Picture of Mel Gibson

1. Find a copy of the Apacalypto teaser trailer such as at http://apocalypto.movies.go.com/ or though any search engine.

2. Fast forward to around the 1:45-47 mark.

3. Go frame by frame.

4. There is a single frame of director Mel Gibson standing with some of the actors. He has a goofy grin on his face and a cigarette in his teeth.

 

THE FACE YOU WILL LEARN TO HATE!!!
