what do we think of fondant !

fondant !
what comes to your mind when the word fondant is mentioned ?
hhhmmhhnnhh ?

spongebob ? mickey ? harry potter ?
well , that just happens to be my point !
you see , there are ample of stuff that come up to one's mind !
seriously people , when it comes to fondant , there is really no boundaries at all !

anything ! i mean anyting at all !
now , some of you might still be confused of the term sugar paste , marzipan , and fondant !

well , let me tell you those stuff i mentioned before are all so similar !
sculptures, molding , shaping and anything at all !
even fine art can be conjured with this fondant !

with it's stick but soft texture , it's sure to bring out the adventure within you !

those days , people used fondant for only and ONLY wedding cakes !
you know , those 5 tiered or maybe even 10 tiered cakes (which we saw at lisa menelli's wedding)

fondant is truly in a league of its own !

i remember i made my first fondant cake during new year !
it was a uuummhh cake shape in 2010 !
i know it wasn't that good , but i still enjoyed my time molding and applying it onto the cake !
i dont have a good picture but please excuse the "ugly me" in it !
hang on let me chew on this apple !

ok ! i'm back !
anyway , like i was saying , there's just too much to say about fondant !
really !
people , tell you what ... go and buy a pack of fondant and let your creative side out !
hahahhahaaa !
it's just too much of fun to miss out on !

oohh ! there was one time where a lady (shopaholic) . she loved designer bags so her husband made her a chanel cake bag , and that really was the dawn of this craze !
hahahhahaa !

right now , my brother is pestering me to make a spongebob cake for him !
i shall see what i can do !
till then , get your fondant on , people !
see you !

what do we think of inception

people , i have to say that when i heard chris nolan was doing a film with leonardo dicaprio , i was stoked .
well , maybe not stoked but almost there !
anyway , chris nolan , the director of many good films such as momento , dark night and many more never fails to impress me especially with his out of the world concepts and plots ! ( IT ALWAYS THICKENS ) .

ANYWAY IN INCEPTION , WE GET TO SEE HOW DREAMS ARE INTERPRETED .
I MUST SAY THAT THE DREAMS APPEAR VERY CONSTRUCTIVE AND NOT THE CLICHE' HAPPY AND MAGICAL THINGY THAT WE SEE IN ALMOST EVERY MOVIE ! THATS'S THE THING WITH NOLAN . HE EXCEEDS IN ORIGINALITY .

ONE OF THE THINGS WHICH I LOVE IN THIS MOVIE IS THE TOTEM !
I LOVE THIS CONCEPT !
A TOTEM , A TOOL THAT ENSURES WHETHER ONE I STILL DREAMING !
I WONDER WHAT MY TOTEM WOULD LOOK LIKE ?
I WOULD PROBABLY ASSOSIATE HARRY POTTER !
HAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAA !
NEVERMIND !

ANYWAY , THE PLAY OF TIMING WAS ALSO VERY WELL EXECUTED IN THIS CONCEPT ! I LOVED THE IDEA OF THE SPEED OF TIME AT DIFFERENT LEVELS OF THE DREAMS !
IT'S TRUE , I MEAN I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN DREAMING FOR HOURS BUT IN REALITY IT WAS JUST A MOMENT !


INCEPTION , A PROCESS WHERE ONE PLANTS AN IDEA INTO SOMEONE !
DOESN'T THAT SEEM SO POSSIBLE !
HOW DO YOU THINK PEOPLE GET IDEAS TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL !
FOR ME , I THINK EXTRACTION IS IMPOSSIBLE !
AN IDEA THAT IF ONCE PANTED , IT SHALL REMAIN WITHIN US !
SOMEWHERE DEEP WITHIN OUR THOUGHTS !
HAHHAHAHAA !
I LOVE GIGGLING !
ANYWAY , CHRIS NOLAN IS A GENIUS FOR COMING UP WITH THIS CONCEPT AND I DARE SAY IT IS SO FAR THE BEST MOVIE I WATCHED THIS YEAR !

WOULD IT BE AN OSCAR CONTENDER ?
MAYBE !
YOU KNOW IN CERTAIN CATEGORIES LIKE , BEST MOVIE , BEST SOUND EDITING , BEST SOUND MIXING , BEST SCORE (ALTHOUGH I THINK HANS ZIMMER DIDN'T DO A GREAT JOB THIS TIME , OOOHHH MUSIC, I SHALL COME BACK TO THAT LATER ) , BEST DIRECTOR , BEST ART DIRECTION AND OTHERS !

THE ACTING WASN'T THAT ALL OUTSTANDING !
MARION COUTILLARD SEEMED VERY STIFF , BUT THEN AGAIN SHE WAS LOST IN LIMBO !
HAHAHAHHAA !
LEO HAD HIS DRAMATIC SCENES AS HE ALWAYS DOES !
ELLEN PAIGE DID AN OKAY JOB TOO !

NOW , FOR THE MUSIC !
MR ZIMMER , UUUMMH !

I HAVE TO SAY I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHO THE MUSIC DIRECTOR WAS BEFORE WATCHING THE MOVIE , BUT AS SOON AS I WATCHED IT , I KNEW THAT IT WAS HAANS ZIMMER !
THE THING IS I DIDN'T HEAR A SCORE FROM INCEPTION , I HEARD A SCORE FROM THE DAVINCI CODE !

MR ZIMMER DIDN'T DO IT THIS TIME !
GOSH , THE MUSIC WAS SO SIMILAR TO THE DAVINCE CODE THAT I WAS ACTUALLY MAD !
SO MAD !
REALLY !
ITS TRUE !
I GET MAD WHEN THE SCORE ISN'T GOOD !
UUUMMHH !
WHY DIDN'T THEY CHOOSE DANNY ELFMAN , OR JAMES NEWTON OR EVEN JOHN WILLIAMSTHE GREAT ?

THE ENDING MADE ME WONDER , IF HE CHOSED TO DREAM OF HIM BEING WITH HIS CHILDREN , WHY DIDN'T HE DO IT IN THE FIRST PLACE !
HAHAHHAAA !
BUT I DID LIKE THAT ENDING WHERE THE TOTEM NEVER FALLS !


INCEPTION CAN BE INCLUDED IN ONE OF NOLAN'S BEST MOVIES !

what do we think of leonardo di caprio !

readers ,
i have decided to write about one of the best actors of our time !
yes ! it is non other than leonardo di caprio !

now , the reason i am doing this thingy here is because i feel that leonardo doesn't get the appreciation and recognition for his work !
It is an undeniable fact that he is a great actor !

you see , i'm not talking about the fans !nevermind the fans !
these days , people watch crapy movies !
i'm actually talking about the academy !

ok !
his first movie (the boys life ) it wasn't that great , i must say !
but he was great in it !
the academy failed to give him atleast a nomination !
why not nominate new comers ?(atleast leo was better than ellen paige when she first got nominated )!
then , it was WHAT'S EATING GILBERT GRAPE !
now , this is a must see !
he played a mentally handicapped boy (arnie grape) !
this was when he was noticed and the academy had to nominate him !
it would have been wrong and i mean very wrong to not have nominated him for this !
the question was ...
WHY DIDN'T HE WIN ?
WHY ?
WHY ?

i shall move on !
what about movies like the foot shooting party ?
or the quick and the dead ?
or total eclipse ?
all these movies have something in common !
what ?

OH YEAH !
HE DIDN'T WIN !
WAIT !
HE WASN'T EVEN NOMINATED !



WHAT ABOUT MARVINS ROOM ?
OR MAN IN THE IRON MASK?
ALL EXCELLENT PERFORMANCES!

I'M NOT GONNA TALK ABOUT TITANIC !
IT WAS JUST OVER-RATED THAT THE WHOLE ACTING THING HAD BEEN DESTROYED !
(Kate winslet was however still fabulous )!


cath me if you can !
the departed !
gangs of new york !

and then after so many years , Aviator !
HE FINALLY GETS AN ACADEMY AWARD NOMINATION !
AND AGAIN !HE DOESN'T WIN !


BLOOD DIAMOND EARNED HIM ANOTHER NOMINATION !
BUT DID HE WIN ?
THE TRUTH IS HE NEVER WON !

I JUST HOPE THE ACADEMY WILL SOON SEE HIS ABILITY TO POTRAY A CHARACTER !

REVOLUTIONARY ROAD IS MY SECOND FAVOURITE MOVIE AFTER ATONEMENT !
IT'S JUST CRAZY !
I CAN WATCH IT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN !
HHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAA !


SHUTTER ISLAND WAS COOL (THE LIKES OF MARTIN SCORSESE) !

I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SEE INCEPTION !
AND HOW IRONIC , IT ALSO STARS ELLEN PAIGE !
HHAHHAHAHAA !


ALL IN ALL , LEO YOU ARE THE BEST !

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 !

there's more !

i actually have a lot more to sell !
let me know the titles and i shall see what i can do !

oh yeah !
if you guys are interested in any of the books below ,
then ,let me know my e-mailling me !
