I am. :)
Yes, this is another Harry Potter post. No, I am still not over it.
I still wish they’re together for real.
Gotta love fan fiction.
I held my breath for this one.
I wish I went to Orlando when the cast went on the rides with kids!
Must consider all contributing factors.
PLEASE BE TOGETHER FOR REAL!!!!
And I just died right there. Hahaha!
Dylan and I were supposed to catch Thor on opening day, but apparently, that was what everyone had planned. We had to push it back a few more days. However, even if we watched in 5 days after it’s first release, I just have to say, Filipinos are such movie freaks. I mean really! The theatre I looked into was sold out at 12 noon! And I thought I had a good plan.
Good thing, I still managed to get seats for us. I don’t want the hassle of falling in line, so this is the part where I thank SureSeats! :)
So… moving on…
Dylan had to give me a breakdown of Nors mythology. Thor is the god of thunder, Loki is the god of mischief, Odin is fantastic papa. Hahahaha. Sorry Babe. Some things didn’t stick. Don’t worry; I’ll look it up later.
SPOILER ALERT. SPOILER ALERT. SPOILER ALERT.
It was almost uneventful if it weren’t for that sudden whim to watch a movie.
Dylan and I caught RED at Greenbelt 3. I wanted to take him to Power Plant Mall, but I didn’t want to push him, so we just went to our comfort zone that is Ayala Malls. :) We’ve been meaning to catch that movie for quite sometime now, and we finally got around to doing it.
RED stars Oscar winning actors in their, well… senior form. Bruce Willis, Frank Moses, plays an ex-CIA agent who is not really adjusting well to his retirement. He constantly flirts with this pension operator Sarah Ross, played by Mary Louise Parker, by tearing up his pension just to talk to her. Then one night, an elite group raided his house in attempts to kill him. I say attempts because in true Die Hard factor, Moses escapes unscathed and goes to Ross to rescue her.
Apparently, that’s how they do it. They kill everyone you’re close to.
Anyway, Moses rounds up his old gang, Joe Boggs (Morgan Freeman), a lunatic laced on LSD for years as part of a government conspiracy aimed at tracking his neurological functions Martin (John Malkovich), the Russian guy who seems to serve fantastic vodka Ivan (Brian Cox) and the foxy Victoria (Helen Mirren).
It was hilarious. Malkovich and his fantastic quips managed to whip new age action stars, scolding them and reminding them that action need not be serious. They can really use a cue if not more from these veteran actors.
Mirren is the sexiest woman on earth, holding a gun like it’s a cellular phone: casual and normal. Nuff said.
Too bad, Red is no longer showing in the theatres. Dylan and I managed to catch the last stretch of it last week, and well, for those who haven’t watched it, there’s always Pirate Bay. :)
