what do we think of sherlock holmes ; a game of shadows.

i knew it ! it was hans zimmer . haaah ! we are thus serenaded by a somewhat staccato tune of string instruments smoothly crescendoing from the back and as jude law (mr.watson) depicts his post-agendas with sherlock, we wonder where is this going to take us.

as a rapid reader of the renowned series, one cannot assume that holmes dies. knowing him and his unconventional antiques , the reader is definitely in for a series of unexpected occurrences.

sherlock holmes has a tendency to actually create a circumstance that leaves you wanting to know more. i for one till date cannot forget the story of sherlock holmes solving the mystery of the white snake.( the irony is i can't remember the title of the book) .

anyway, sir Arthur Conan Doyle has created these wonderful classics that have been enjoyed by many generations and thus creating a whole new craze for the generations to come.

Moving on, i just got back from the cinema and i  feel contented now. in my previously post , i stated that when i watch a movie, the need for me to be fed is of epic proportions . that's what i got from watching Guy Ritchie's version of Sherlock Holmes ; a game of shadows. the movie , as mentioned before starts with watson typing his life experiences with holmes with this very vintage looking type-writing machine and this obviously is a porthole to a flash back. a pensieve. whatever you call it .
watching this movie as aforementioned will put yourself in a state of mind that you seldom experience. A movie can only have so much emotions poured into it. but this however just pushes boundaries. of course there are movies like the KING'S SPEECH  and LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE  and most recently CARNAGE that bring out laughter and seriousness in you but SHERLOCK HOLMES ;A GAME OF SHADOWS is a completely wrong ! i mean ! it's weird for me to watch a movie that brings out the most hysterical laughter , the most focus, the emotions in me.

this movie was just too much for me. it was as if i just walked out from a delicious meal. i'm being contradictory here. i loved it. not one boring moment. the jokes were actually funny. witty actually.

oh yes ! there was one scene which needed to be edited out i felt. this scene in the train where Sherlock Holmes supposedly died and is predictably derived from death. oh and that crying scene of Jude Law was really bad. i mean he can act very well actually but the whole scene was just awkward. probably Guy Ritchies's doing.

the movie takes us through the journey of a minuscule war between the french and the germans and involves the elite from cambridge who use their (this word is tooo pretentious to be used) to their advantages in procuring what benefits them. There were stuff like the revolution of plastic surgery of which i find( that scene) very interesting as it possessed that typical sherlock holmes essence. good adaptation. thumbs up Guy Ritchie. i can go all Joan Rivers on you at times but it shall not be today as you have fed me to my heart's content.

the cast were pretty amazing. i mean RDJ is simply awesome let alone jude law. racel mc adams impressed although she was only in the first 20 minutes of the movie.
the gypsy was fine as well. what's her name??? madam simza.
oh and did you all notice watson's wife???? she played Caroline Bingley in one of my most favourite adaptation ever, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE . she was awesome as well. hhhaahha !

conclusion: go watch this movie. it will feed you . seriously it will. but please go in expecting nothing but excellence cause the minute you doubt the british, the will .. uummh! nevermind ! great movie . i definitely don't have a problem watching it again.

also, you have to keep an eye on sherlock's camouflaging costumes. they are indeed a joy to look at. hahaha !

the hobbit trailer 2012 !

enjoy ! it just got released today ! yay ! not too revealing but it leaves us wanting to see more ! yay ! wheeeeeeeeeeee ! 

what do we think of new years eve

some people swear that there's no beauty left in the world. Then how do you explain the entire world coming together on one night ! hahaha ! new years eve !
after watching lots of period dramas and independent intelligence , i took a break from my perch to watch this movie in the cinema all alone ! hahah ! a romantic comedy i call it !
 by me saying that , i really don't expect myself to be blown away period !
romantic comedies are made solely for one purpose and that is to entertain those souls who have nothing better to do ! hahah ! i'm kidding ! i mean after watching certain romantic comedies, it really feeds me in a good way that is . what i mean to say is that it's very hearty . does that make sense???
anyway,  this movie is about different characters being linked into one scene at the very end . it's like love actually without an edge > oh love actually's the best so far ! hahaha ! (an i'm not being biased due to the knightley factor) ahahahha !
 people like hillary swank, robert de niro, sofia vergara , catherine heigle, josh duhamel, lea michele and loads of them star in this hopeful movie. i just love christmas movies ! oh wait ! it's not a christmas movie .
the whole of new york gather at times square in the night of new years eve only to see this gigantic ball light up . but of course there would be some technical difficulties faced by the people who are involved in lighting the ball(namely hillary swank) and there goes another inspirational speech . i liked this speech very much ! it wasn't overdone ! just right ! hahahahaha !

john bon jovi as jensen ! hahaha ! he was okay ! a tad too cheesy for my taste. hahaha ! but okay !
lea michele's character was okay as well ! she wasn't as annoying as rachel berry but managed to make the scene all about her! and oh nooooo ! she sang with jon bon jovie ! ahhahahah ! she's good but she's .... ! nevermind that !
 josh duhamel's character was likeable ! only likeable ! there wasn't much too it ! sarah jessica parker was carrie bradshaw ! hahahhaha ! really !!!! no kidding !!!!! whoah ! abigail breslin has grown so much ! i didn't recognise her . oh i have to point this ! in the movie abigail breslin's character says that she's 15 and she should be treated like an adult and she should be allowed to go out with her friends and return after midnight ! like seriously woman ! i'm 20 and still have to ask my parent's permission to do things ! and believe me when i say i have a time limit and that's definitely before 12 am . americans and their rights for nothing ! hahahhahaa !
sorry americans ! i love y'all but this is true ! hhahaha !

sofia vergara tried ooo hard to be funny ! i mean she was funny at times but she wasn't memorable ! hahhhahah !  what else ?? what else ????? yep

pretty much summed the movie for you guys ! it's okay if you want to watch a hearty movie and have no expectations to be blown away ! hahahahh !  oh and happy new year to you guys ! 

what do we think of mission impossible !

well , the movie starts of in budhapest where this agent gets screwed by this french detective (monreau i only assumed she's french) .
anyway, the plot thickens by shifting the picture to no where but russia (the land where everyone goes capitan instead of captain) hahh!
we find agent hunt (cruise) snubbed away by his sidekicks simon pegg from the likes of HOTFUZZ and we also got to see paula paton who wasn't so annoying here ! to tell you the truth i actually thought she was pretty hot in this movie (i think otherwise elsewhere )
moving to more essential things , they call this mission the ghost protocol ! why ????? you will not get to know ! hahaha ! seriously ! probably because some russian dude tried to hack the system . hold on! how is hendricks russian ???? FAIL ! ahahhaha

there were lots of uber cool gadgets like those impending gloves that seek the opposite of carnage ! SAY WHAT ??? HAHAHA !  they're basically infrared sticking gloves which causes a strong reaction or force between the surfaces it is in contact with !

and then there was that contact lense which actually makes copies ! hahaha 1 that would be soooo handy ! seriously ! i'm an architecture student and those would really come in handy especially when drafting plans and elevations of a building.
speaking of architecture, this movies boasts it's fair share of architecture not to mention the BURJ AL KHALIFA(tallest building in the world)  that seems to be in every movie these days. seriously ! dubai is just over rated ! but the building does look appealing nontheless.
there was the kremlin in moscow ! just when i thought people should really take russian architecture seriously, they had to blow up the place . hahhahah ! my heart melted when that happened.
anyway, the movie was okay i guess judging the fact that movies like these (yes ! i'm stereotyping these films) can turn really cheesy! this however was 1.9 on the cheesy (rictor) scale ! hahahaha !
tom cruise was okay as he always is ! don't forget he is after all an academy award nominee.
paula paton was okay performance  ! i'm not expecting too much as this isn't a performance driven movie after all.
simon pegg was a marvel here ! yay ! he made my day today ! hahhaha
omg ! i forgot jeremy renner ! i loved him in the hurt locker ! here however ! not so much ! he was okay and all and that changed when he had a gay moment with cruise in the end ! gay ! like seriously ! hahahah !

the night was good ! and bumpy ! jhajajjajaaahhah ! (insight joke for a special someone ) hahhahaha ! 

what do we think of carnage

this roman polanski flick is actually based on a play in the 70s (the god of carnage). it really has a simple storyline to it and with simplicity comes its twists ! hahahaha !

there were no absolute twists but i did like the rants and screams projected by kate winslet and jodie foster .

they were excellent ! 

to project a certain aura in a movie is difficult but obviously they succeeded. i usually over complement kate winslet in every film she does but today i shan't 

that honour will go to jodie foster . 

this is definitely a different role she took on and simple has paid homage to the cliche self empowering roles she has done before . 

in carnage , she cries, talks, screams, rants and even mumbles with perfection . although i complement her, i know she wont be given an oscar nomination as this movie is not of oscar essence .

this film is merely about two sets of parents who are brought together to discuss the misfortunes lead by their children and before you know it , the whole thing turns into a bloodbath ! hahahha ! well not literally ! that was  a euphemism more likely ! hahahhaha ! NOT !  oh well ! they often get carried away from the actual point of them being there ! in this movie , we get to learn that people are attached to their toys ! men and their phones ! women and their hand bags ! hahahahha 

oh and we also get to learn that some people handle their alcohol better than others ! (funniest scene)! ajaaahahahahah ! 

this polanski flick is sure to make you laugh at times and slap the hell out of some people *coughs*christoph waltz*coughs* ! hhahahahhaha ! 

i enjoyed it ! good one hour i spent! oh ! and there are only 4 people in the whole movie ! and it's shot in one freaking place ! how cheap ! oh wait! one set of clothes ! hahahahhaha ! i loved it!  you go mr. polanski ! 

the consequences of reminiscing !

here i stand , reminiscing about the past ! t'was wonderful and to even think of picturing myself in those scenarios all over again ! well ! i just burst my own bubble ! i know ! thus , i am a realist ! not a  pessimist but a realist ! most of them would perceive such a habit or rather a ritual to be of pessimism but really do you not agree that being positive originates from it's very roots of pessimism ???? do you ??? do you not ???!
anyway , the most uncertain thing here from where i stand is definitely me ! you might say that such a person as me would tend to be very volatile , changing his personalities from time to time but in fact isn't having a few different sides much better than to beat around the bush ( formerly thought it was beat about the bush , though i can still recall where i got that perception from ! it was debate !)
ahhh! (sighs) the likes of debating ! too much of memories for thy to reminisce ! t'was wonderful as i stated before ! for thy shall not dwell in the past ! today ! i break free from the thick clouds of confusion and doubt that surrounded me all this while . and here thy stand with much awkwardness debating or rather questioning my doubts ! okay you know what ??????? i am crapping so hard that i was not even ... ggrr ! nevermind ! t'was just a waste a of time ! hjfkgherw rgghakrg  ghsni ! see what i mean ??? don't say i didn't warn you ! there goes my lemony snickets theory about how violet boudelair should actually warn one before saying she did ! jaajajjajjakakakagahhaha ! and the actual fact is non the less ! nothing ! nothing!  and you shall have nothing !!!!!! and in case you're wondering , that was from king lear !!!!! how did i know ??? well ! i read !and you dont ! okay ! enough with the rant ! i got's o go study !!!!!

what do we think of a dangerous method !

well , it's obviously a must watch movie for me atleast ! unfortunately movies like this does not get released in malaysia .WHY?????  cause it's freaking independent (hahaah! excluding the fact that keira knightley is in it along with other stars like michael fassbender and viggo mortensensen ! )
well , you all know the stories about prof. sigmund freud and his sick theories about psycho analysis ! there's even one about that thing where one actually craves for sexual desires out of self abuse !  hahaha ! that's when keira knightley actually goes " i want to punish me " hhahha ! i think i watched that part in particular about 1000238924179826528650 times ! hahahah ! serious ly ! it's because of me , the video has spooooooooooooooooo many views ! uuummhhh ! moving on !

well , freud's apprentice karl jung encouters a patient that lacks somewhat of uummH! wait ! this is awkward ! uummhh ! yeah ! let me put this in layman terms ! hhahaha ! sabina sprielein (keira knightley ) is dirt tortured that she is to the extent of actually desiring it more ! oh hahahaha ! that's when she goes " it excited me " hahahahhahahaha !

in this review , you won't find much cause the movie isn't even out yet ! i just got so excited about the trailer ! uummhh ! yay ! yay to sigmund freud ! 

at the emmy's ! the fashions and all !

 jayma mays in zuhair muhrad ! to tell you the truth i kinda like this ! it's fits her purpose of being there which is to commemorate her role as emma in glee and her character is this pixie-esque woman ! so yeah !

 sofia vergara in vera wang . i really think this is a safe choice . it's like she's not even taking risks . i mean she does look nice but it's the same old thing in every award show . my suggestion for her would be Ellie Saab !

 diana agron in Roksanda Ilincic . i really don't dig this look .  i mean it makes her look really old and the top half is just awful . really ! the colour doesn't complement her skin and yeah she looks like she's 50 !  this is something oprah or the queen would wear .   ps : the queen as in helen mirren ! hahahaha

 gyneth paltrow in emillio pucci ! i actually really like the concept but it's just too much for me ! personally i don't get the see through cut out part ! since the whole dress is see through why even have the cut out portion . the sequences of the laboochi is awesome ! the detailing i meant ! but all in all , she still looks good !

 zoey deschanel in monique lhulier ! hahahah! i have one word ! colours ! hahhahha ! i like it ! love it !

 lea michele in marchesa ! doesn't look extra jewish here ??? not that it's a bad thing ! i mean i love the jewish history and love reading about them ! don't get me wrong  but i really think she looks jewish ! the dress is okay ! those sleeves are common , so is the pose ! lea ! pose ! pose the same all the time ! i can't wait to see what joan rivers has got to say ! hahahahah

 christina hendricks in joana johnston ! i really love what she does ! this dress fits and shows off her curves more ! and the colour is just divine ! and i haven't even heard of the designer !

  kate winslet in ellie saab ! normalyy elie saab does these really really gordy but couture-esque dresses but this was really simple and perfect ! as the saying goes . ' simplicity has its voice ' yay ! spot on , miss pierce ! i mean winslet ! 

heidi klum in christian siriano ! most of the critiques didn't like this ! they thought it was too much but i on the other hand think of it to be very avant garde ! is that how you spell it ???? nevermind that ! yeah ! she is afterall a super model and i think this is the way to go ! 

what do we think of downton abbey ???

well , this might come as a surprise to you all but i really really like this period drama . hahaah ! it's no surprise at all ! put on anything english  and pretencious and i am drawn to it . oh oh ! especially those pinky fingers stucked out when they hold their cups ! hahahah ! i do that ! i mean really ! it's sooo pretencious but classy ! classy is pretencious ! okay ! i'm a bit carried away , don't you think .  
coming back to downton abbey , it 's really well made !  the acting talent is kinda good except for lady syble whom i couldn't even care to look up ! i feel her performance is a bit faked out and not natural at all !
mary , the eldest of the three looks really really pretencious ! but i love her ! yay !

the clothes ! gosh ! the clothes are to die for ! hahahah ! why do i always sound so gay ! anyway ! i don't care ! the women in this series have been dressed for elegance ! how would you like  to dress up everynight just to have dinner in your  own house ! hahahahahahha ! i don't get the point !
and there's mathhew crowly whom i think is the most sensible of all ! he thinks these pinky fingers , being dressed by the help , or even dressing up for dinner everynight is just ridiculuos ! but that has nothing to do with the movie ! it is the real way of life at that time .

the series has it's fair share of scandals and twists ! like . thomas the footman and the duke of .. i can't remember . oohh oohh ! and the relationship between mr. bates and that silliy old maid ! YES PEOPLE ! I THINK OF THIS TO BE A SCANDAL . ! IT IS ! I MEAN ..HOW >>......
maggie smith plays one of my most favourite characters in this series and i'm looking forward to see all of her mischievous doings !

lastly ,,,,, i can't wait for season 2 ! it's out tommorow ! *jumps with joy*  

what do we think of katherine middleton in sarah burton @alexander mcqueen !

the royal wedding ! gosh ! what can i say ???? uummhh ! it was less grande than princess D's wedding but nonetheless  , it was a spectaculor event  . also i liked how westminster abbey wasn't rich with white roses but with masculine greenery ! awesome ! ( okay i should stop saying awesome )   awesome  !


anyway , yeah ! kate in sarah burton ! it was kinda nice ! i mean she didn't go gooo goooo gaaa ggaaa over the frills ~! and the make-up was very sensible afterall , the princess mentioned in an interview that she wanted will as in william as in prince william to recognise her ! 


sarah burton ! new designer for the late alexander mcqueen ! he was a masterclass designer who i'm sure all of you heard of his tragic death last year ! truly sad !  

okay , i'm getting carried away ! sarah burton ! it was a mystery actually  . a well kept secret !  we didn't even know who the designer was till princess kate stepped out of the car at westminster abbey (architectural facts : westminster abbey is aged of 1000 years )   awesome !~


okay ! dress dress dress !    white , obviously !  and the lace ! i guess she was going for that grace kelly vibe ! yeah ! she was famous for lace dresses back in the days ! the dress was very  plain and simple but had it's voice and i think you don't need all of those bang bang frills that screams PRINCESS ! hints * emmanuel of the late princess diana''s dress* hahah !  this shows that kate middleton ! i mean princess , is a modern minded woman and it takes a real woman to wear alexander mcqueen !  

source : idea of fraudy green ! hahaha ! ( he's gonna be soo excited when he sees this )

 pippa middleton :  gosh ! i'm here in this wonderfull monumental church and all i get to do is stare at my sister's butt ! hahahaha ! that was soooooooooooo lame !

 see the similarities ! see what i was talking about ! the lace ! soooooooooo similar !

designer sarah  sneaking into the gorrington hotel !









sarah burton of alexander mcqueen !

what do we think of JUDAS by the queen , lady gaga !

 okay ! so , it's only a few hours since this video was released and in a matter of minutes it reached to a million view .
i guess everyone was waiting to see the video and to discover the hidden meaning behind such a controversial topic .   some people might claim that she worships the devil  , but that would conflict with the fact she was educated in a catholic school for 15 years .   nevermind that !
anyway , i feel in this video , lady gaga has lost her artistic flare . you know .. the huge haute couture stuff she previously wore in her videos . this video has none except for those fingernails ! awesome !    (they reminded me of my friend , caitlyn ) hahhaha ! i doubt she will read this! hahaha !

moving on ! just enjoy the video cause she is after all a pure entertainer !

ooohhh! there's one thing you should know before watching the video , that guy who was wearing that crown like thingy on his head .... well i think that's supposed to be jesus .

makes me wonder .........


 somethings will never have explanations!
