what do we think about atonement !





what do we think of atonement !
isn't it the best movie you have ever watched ?
i believe so . with it's aura for breath-taking scenaries and profound music direction by academy award winner Dario marianelli (also the music director for pride and prejudice)!

let's talk about the awesome music !
dario was kinda going for a composition that would stay true Ian mcewan's novel which would be pre-ww2 ish and maybe a bit victorian !
it is an immense fact that the music in this movie is so stunning that even i can't stop talking about it !'
let's take a look at the composition per say ,
ummmhh !
love letters !
till this date this piece can make me cry ! for me this piece tells the story of the movie and if this piece could be translated , you would have "atonement "
it definitely deserved the oscar it won (i'll get to that part later ).
ooh !
let's not forget the piece entitled "briony" .
dario marianelli actually used a typr-writer to complete this piece !
at the background of this piece , you come to hear sounds of the typr-writer !
briony is trully classic !

let's now move on to the acting or performances shall i say !
1. james mcavoy -
he kinda did a fair job , though i wasn't sure he could be more natural at speaking fast !
2. keira knightley -
what can i say ! she's god ! i just think she is one of the greatest actress in this new generation of crappy actresses !(vanessa ann hugdens let's say (i hate her )) .
coming back to keira !
she is excellent at what she does and there's nothing she can't do (i have generated a particular favoutism for keira knightley ) .

3. saoirse ronan -
for a new comer , i think she did an amazing job , depite the fact that she was the only one to be nominated for an acting role at the oscars for this movie (i am furious with the academy for doing this ) .



my point of view !
i think ATONEMENT should have won all 7 academy awards that it was nominated for and on top of that nominated for more !

i love atonemnet and there's nothing you can do to stop it !
long live ATONEMENT !

ravaanan


ok , i went to watch this highly rated tamil movie yesterday !
the truth is , i actually went to watch this movie mainly because of the director ( MANI RATHNAM ) and the likes of 2 time ACADEMY AWARD winner A.R RAHMAN (music director).

mani rathnam is famous for his beautiful and elegant shots and of course the story line !
he makes unconventional tamil movies which me and my family like !
so much so that we actually don't watch a tamil movies until we know the director !

coming back to this movie ,
of course it was beautiful !
so beautiful that i was in "awe " .
the cinematography was so profound !

the cast were all very well assembled and they did a pretty good performance !
Aishwarya RAI was as beautiful as ever and her co-star (prithvi raj) was given a really good make-over !


the music was of course very well composed !
A.r Rahman was going for an earth , folk type a thing which was very much to my liking !
the songs were just o.k !

the thing is , that is all i can tell about the movie !
the story was really cliche' and not impressive !


all in all this was an O.K movie which i don't think i can watch again !

sick and tired !


lately , there's been a lot about Lady gaga and the person she is behind all that make-up and those wacky costumes !

there's been certain speculations that she actually worships the devil or is she the devil ?

i'm not too sure myself but it has been about time that someone actually defended her !


lady gaga is nothing but wacky costumes (or in my words couture )and drenched in 6 inches of M.A.C , oh ! not to mention those very "artistic" videos !


all that lady gaga wants is to be different !
in an interview by MTV she said " all i want to do is to prove that there are no boundaries , so i am making that happen "


is that her fault ?
she taking up a challenge .
for years now , the media has trashed her so badly .
from calling her a hermaphrodite to a transexual and now THE DEVIL ?
seriously , people !


if you people are so into and so dedicated and so faithful to your religion , i' m sure people wouldn't have the heart to trash someone like this !

does your religion tell you to trash people and to create rumours and worst still ,
spread those rumours ?

i don't think so !

you people get so influenced by these antoganist who tremble upon thick clouds of confusion !

infact , the ones who get influenced are the ones who are not true to their religion !
so people , its not enough to be true to god by just having a few meetings and singing songs !
it needs to come from a clean heart !


so people , THINK !

and yeah !
how nice , shelby takes quinn fabray's baby !
ok , now that part needed some ammendments !
hahahahhaaaa !


yay glee !

what do we think about the twillight saga ?


ok !
here we are at brink of destruction !
hahahahahaaa !
i love being dramatic !
what does that mean ?
anyway , twillight;eclipse will hit the cinemas on the 8th of july !


i already have my prediction or shall i say vision on how the movie is going to be !
i am not in good terms with twillight or shall i say i'm an anti- twihard !
hahahahhaaaa !
i just think this saga should stay as pages and not appear on the silver screen !
talking about reading a cheeeeeeeesy book !
(me typing this amount of e's is to express the degree of cheesiness )!
is there such word !
anyway , everyone thinks rob-pats or was k-pats ?
NEVERMIND !
yeah , everyone thinks he is hot !
that's not the case at all !
i think he looks constipated at all times and should stay in hufflepuff !
(i'm sure everyone agrees with that ! )

how did he ever win best actor ?(mtv movie awards )
oh wait !
i forgot , teenage girls vote !

there's more !

what about that werewolf , huh ?
taylor lautner !
i think he looks better as a werewolf !
i know my friends are gonna hate me when they read this , but trust me people ,

THIS IS TH TRUTH !


kristen stewart !
you know what , she can actually act !
in other movies i meant , not twillight !
TRY : speak or panic room !

bella swan ?
she looks sick !
and i heard from a friend who happens to be a twi-hard , that she becomes a vampire !


aaaaarrrrrrrrggghh !
all in all stephenie meyer has written a book so similar to the dark series by sherrilyn kenyon's "the dark series " !


that's plagiarism , MISS MEYER !
and people don't seem to get it !


the only good thing about this saga is the soundtrack ,

tracks like decode by paramore , neutron star collision by muse !
they're really good !

all in all , i will still watch eclipse and we shall see whether i am clairvoyant !

introduction


hello people of the world ,
today i shall indulge in this what i call "blogging" !
this is actually my first blog and i am looking forward to it !


inspiration :

i was watching this movie entitled "julie and julia "
and i was so inspired by julie powell when she started her blog !
you know , the feeling of receiving comments from people you don't know !
the feeling of being appreciated !
hahahhahhaaa !
so today , i will see what i can do to make this what i call "blog" , interesting !
if not today , then i shall go to bed thinking of ideas to feed this what i call "blog" !
there was once a saying , "for tommorow , shall never die " by i don't know who .
just remembered reading it from reading a little book that filled my younger days with happiness !
hahahahahhhaaa !



i shall be back !
wish me luck !
