Make it decided in 8.5 seconds.

Hehe.

So.

I'm gona be in Bukit Jalil tmw night, catching the 2nd, unexpected, Man U vs Msia match!

Lol! Funny stuff man :

First, I'm no MU fan. I actually support any team that's not MU, when Arsenal's not playing, during matches with MU in them, but Arsenal's dying now anyways lol.

Second, I made the decision to go in, approximately, 8.5 seconds. 8, when I went, Er, and 0.5 when I went, Ok! Hahahaha I was on the line with Andrew Tan, who so very kindly bought my ticket, when he sprang the question, "You wana go or not? There's still one more. I mean I have money to get one more ticket." And after a few seconds of hesitation, 7.9 to match what I said above, I decided to go. Hahaha. Maybe I'll wear an Arsenal jersey and ask Rooney to sign it. Heh. I think that's what my bro's friend is doing, except with a Liverpool one. Lol! :P

Third, I randomly asked Miriam if she wanted to go, I have no idea why, but I just wanted to ask her. Mana tau, she agreed! Hahahaha I never knew she did football :P But all's good cos it'll be our first football match seeing them footballers in flesh! Actually, not for Miriam though, because, she freaking saw Henry, as in THIERRY HENRY, walking on the streets in Paris, France!! Unfortunately, Andrew did not have enough money, he had to buy 6 tickets before that, and was also already out of the line, so I had to go queue up in Parade to get Mim's tic. Took a while, but managed to get my hands on it hee :DD


Anyways, on a separate note, Public Enemies was super on for me man! I liked it :)

Harry Potter 6 was a bit of a disappointment, altered a lot of stuff. The goods and the bads :

Goods :

I really liked some scenes, especially the ones with Ron in them, he just seriously acts so well : the Keeper tryouts scene, the in-love-with-Romilda-Vane one, and the one where he gets poisoned. Cool acting :)

The way there portrayed the Vanishing Cabinets, I thought was brilliant, it being in a triangle-ish shape thingy.

Dumbledore's black hand, not bad. The ring looks not bad.

Cormac McLaggen. Haha. I thought he would look burly and big and ugly, but hey, he's quite good-looking haha.

I liked the Quidditch scenes :)

The bads :

NO EMO DUMBLEDORE'S FUNERAL!! No white tomb, no crying, no chance to show Harry's conviction to stop school and head off on his own to destroy the remaining Horcruxes.

THEY TOTALLY MISSED OUT THE HOUSE OF GAUNT MEMORY!!
Meaning, there're NO Morfin, Merope, Marvolo etcetc. I'm like.. What?! Cos I really wanted to see how Voldermort's mom & granddad look like. And I just wanted to see how they would portray that whole scene yknow, with the dead snake hanging from the door etcetc. Tapi, betapa sedihnya aku bila aku sedar bahawa tiada such scenenya.

Very disappointed in the fact that there was NO fighting scenes AT ALL between the Aurors & Death Eaters, it just went straight to them burning Hagrid's hut. Ish.

The green lake in the cave, is not even green. Not a faint hint of green glow pun. Lol.

Still feel that Daniel & Emma Watson cannot act. Harry & Hermione are like, stone, or fake. Like most of us feel that they can't portray the emotions strongly enough. In sad scenes, Hermione is just frowning, with her eyebrows coming together and looking all... Pathetic? Okay, too harsh, erm.. Forlorn? Whatever lah, just that it doesn't sampai the tahap of sadness she should be showing. I mean, Dumbledore DIED for crying out loud. Lol. I do like her dress though, the one at Slughorn's party.

In the book, it was Tonks that found Harry, not LUNA, on the train where he got Petrificus Totalus-ed. There were so few scenes of Tonks, too :/

Oh oh OH AND, in the book, Harry uses the Invisibility Cloak to get into the Slytherin compartment thing, NOT Peruvian Total Blackness Powder or whatever the crap it is.

I know la this are minor things, but then.. I duno, it's like they altered a lot of stuff. I mean, dahlah they cut a lot of things, cos tak cukup masa, but they alter things somemore. If cut scenes but accurately portray the remaining ones, then tak begitu teruk yknow. Yang ini ar, tukar here tukar there. Aih.

But the effects were good la yknow. The ending, for me and a lot of others, super potong can die.

Watchmen! I liked it :)

17 Again was highly enjoyable for me :):)) Not, because of the Zac Efron stuff, but cos it's just so funny! And quite cool lah like how he realizes it's not all about basketball but more of helping his kids out. I feel that Zac Efron looks much better here than in High School Musical, although HSM3 was quite good for him too, looks wise, compared to HSM1 & 2.

Imma go watch The Notebook again now haha. That's a pretty good movie too :) I like how they start off with the old man telling the story to the old woman, and how it plays out, like flashback, then present and then back again. :)
