movie goer.

story of my life. the things that I hold on to but are able to deteriorate me further.

I want to live & not just exist. & I shall do so. with every fibre of my being.

Well, how should I say this...

school reopened today. *insert sad face* 

But nonetheless, it was nice seeing my good friends, catching up & whatsnot. It was nice to be around people who won't give you headache (or even heartache) but probably the classes today gave me a headache. Sort of. Hi guys, have 'fun' back in school! Midterms around the corner, assignments to be handed it and revision revision for the upcoming exams in like what..2 months!? Holy pelloids! 

What is a pelloid?

In geology terminology...

it's basically shit.

as in. shit. 

I kid you not. 

Moving on!

I love movies, when I have the money & people to watch it. & I do enjoy watching it on cinema where the sound system is just LOUD & you actually FEEL the vibrations of the sound. Watching a movie widescreen and especially horror movies, you won't be ashamed of screaming cause you know the lady in front of you is going to scream harder. Please don't take that context weirdly ladies & gentlemen!

I am no professional movie reviewer but I do enjoy movies & I won't spoil the whole thing cause...cause I just won't but I'll just type out memorable incidents of the movies. The last 3 movies I watched before the semester reopened was (in sequence) Paranormal Actitivy 4, Skyfall & Sinister.

I don't even know why I agreed to watch this. I watched this back in Brunei at the Cineplex Mall. If you didn't watch the first 3...I suggest you do. Did I watch the first 3 though? NOPE. Just the first movie. So how did I catch up? By reading our good friend Wikipedia during the trailer premiers. heheh. So how should I simplify this? Let's see..

1. Video recordings. 
2. A weird kid.
3. A weird mom. 
4. Lovely family. Youngest kid's adopted. 
5. Weird mom hospitalized.
6. Lovely family being lovely neighbors take in the weird kid.
7. That's when it all started.
8. Strange occurrences happening & is shown on tape. 
9. Something to do with a witch coven. 
10. Even more strange occurrences.
11. The youngest kid has to be a sacrifice <-> connections with weird mom.
12. Who turned out to be his aunt. Biological aunt. 
13. Aunt goes on a killing spree.
14. Daughter of lovely family tries to save the adopted kid. It's her brother, duh. 
15. Fast track to suddenly every witch zombie-walking towards the daughter. 
16. Yeah I think she died.
17. She obviously did. 

& that was my deduction of the movie. Told you, I am no movie reviewer but this is how I would explain to my friends. Cut it short & simple.

My rating : 2.5/5

To start, I can honestly say I was never a James Bond movie fan but, not to say I am now, but Skyfall was GOOD. Especially in terms of story line. Usually what I thought of any James Bond movie was this :

1. Dude's on a mission.
2. Dude finds a hot girl somehow involved in the mission.
3. Sexy time with hot girl.
4. Dude completes mission.
5. Hot girl may or not be seen anymore.

But Skyfall was, awesome. I don't even know how to put the awesomeness in place. So let me start...I forget things easily fyi. 

1. Mission's at Istanbul. 
2. Bond's buddy was shot. M told him to gtfo, leave the buddy cause aid's gonna come in like 5 minutes & chase the dude who stole a hard-drive containing list of agents. 
3. Car chase. Freaking crashed Istanbul. (seriously I cannot imagine this you know, you get like random agents fucking with your city town, blasting gunshots & rampaging the whole area like dude...I can't imagine if it happened to my area. )
4. Fight on top of a moving train. Muscle power!!
5. This lady agent (what's her name again? her last name was Moneypenny though. kaching!!!) tries to aim in order to take a shot. 
6. M says "take the god damn shot!!" so Moneypenny shots. Bond got hit.
7. Adele's Skyfall plays. 
8. M/Bond's office in London blew up. M gets a weird death threat from some person.
9. Bond's alive & well. Insert drinking & sexy time. 
10. Receiving news about what happened in London, he flew back. M's like "dafuq have you been?" 
11. Bond meets Questmaster, Q. a cutie patootie if you ask me. He gave Bond gadgets & airtickets to Shanghai to get intel about the dude who stole the hard drive & to avenge his buddy. I think his name was Ronson?
12. Dude-who-stole-hard-drive fell from 63rd floor of a building after a fight with Bond. Bond retrieves a gambling coin. To the casinos! oh yeah, spots hot chick. 
13. Exchanged coin for 4million USD gaddamn. Sees hot chick. Offers help in exchange of intel. She gave her location but tells him her buddies are gonna kill him. Lady leaves.
14. A fight broke off in the casino. Bond, duh, gets the upperhand. One dude gets eaten by not one, but several komodo dragons. EEEPPP!! 
15. Bond meets lady in a boat.....in the shower...I assume it's another sexy time. Go James! 
16. Boat reaches weird, abandoned place.
17. Bond meets an old agent. Everyone was appalled by him...he was touching Bond (Bond was strapped on a chair!) & people at the cinema were like bfnjsdfmbsdjhfmsbf.
18. Old agent hates M. He was pissed at her ways & his commitment to the job made him....well, sorta like destroyed him. 
19. Old agent brings Bond outside. Lady was tied. A shot of vodka was placed on her head. Old agent challenges Bond for a shooting game. Bond misses. Old agent fires and, didn't hit the glass but the girl flinched and the glass drops. Old agent said he won. 
20. Bond kicks everyones asses. 
21. Bond's people came by helicopters and takes the mean old agent away~
22. Interrogation time back in London. 
23. Hearing for M. Whether or not her department was still relevant or not.
24. Old agent managed to get away. 
25. Old agent wants to kill M. 
26. Goose chase. Bond<->Old agent. 
27. Old agent reaches the court hearing & starts shooting spree.
28. M survived. Bond takes her to a safe place : Skyfall. 
29. Bond, M & old man set up booby traps everywhere in Bond's old house. 
30. Old agent comes & intense gun fight + grenade throwing takes place.
31. Fire, boom! 
32. Old man brings M to an abandoned chapel for safety. 
33. M injured & dying. 
34. Old agent caught up. Wants to die together with M using a single gunshot. 
35. Bond threw a knife and hits old agent's spine. Old agent dies. 
36. M dies. Bond cries. 
37. Back to London & Bond's back to work. 

& that's it. Excuse me & my one liners but that's how I would explain movies to my friends. hehe. 

My rating : 4.8/5
