Went to celebrate Aisyah and Jasmine's Bdae yesterday-- Watched the movie "Quarantine". Imo, it's a stupid show and a waste of money. It's the kind of movie that's been done over and over again. Quarantined in an apartment building, a group of people are attacked by -guess what-
Zombies. Yay!
Then as usual, one by one, people die, turn into zombies, and start killing others. Elements of a scary movie are there eg Flashing/flickering lights and screamers, but I think the too much flashing lights were used. One part during the elevator scene when the group were attacked by zombies, the cameraman's camera lights flickers like a mother. Then, after the attack, bam, lights are back to normal.
Gore-wise, it's not that grotesque as you might think. Sure, a zombie which looks 90 percent human biting another human's neck may be scary to some, but I think I've seen scarier shows. The best part of the film to me was the part where the -SPOILERS- little girl bites her mom, and darts around like a crazy monkey. Haha that part was funny.
Comparing this to the other movie, "Cloverfield", the latter wins hands down. Although all the characteres die in the end, at least in Cloverfield, they die knowing they probably will, and are more or less ready, having said their final words. Unlike where in this lame show the main character screams as she gets pulled back, then bam, game over.
Well at least we got to go Joe's house for some GHWT. But thanks to Nadiah and Alana, I now hate the song "Monsoon." LOL.

Randomness
Kenpachi Zaraki's back! And so are the other Shinigamis from Bleach. Watching Ichigo fight was getting stale already, good thing they brought back the rest.
I love Dizzy and Carmine from Gow2.
Dizzy-
Redneck to the bone (See his cowboy hat? You know what's underneath it? A bandana)
His Texan accent rocks
Favourite line: "Its darker than a rats ass. Lemme light up Betty's titties!!" (Betty being his vehicle, of course. What were you thinking?)

Carmine-
Everyone loves a man in armor. But who can resist a clumsy rookie wearing armor which looks just a little oversized for him? Eh? Eh?
Best line: It's that monkey-dog thing again!!!

Oh and I just watched the movie "Taken". I wasn't that excited about it, not until I saw Liam Neeson come on screen in the very first scene. Having watched him play as Qui-Gon in Starwars and other epic movies, I knew this was one film I had to watch. He plays as a father of a daughter who, on a holiday in Paris, gets kidnapped later on in the movie. Thing is, this father is a retired Jack Baouer/Rambo/Spec ops kinda guy, so it's no surprise when he travels to Paris and tears it apart just to look for his daughter.
The whole movie basically shows Neeson travelling around Paris in search of his daughter and those responsible for the kidnappings. Then he kills his enemies. One WTF moment was when he waltzes into the 'lion's den' and says to the leader "You don't remember me? We spoke on the phone two days ago... I told you I would find you", in the middle of everyone. Yeah, he's that Badass. Then he takes out everyone one by one, and saves the leader for the last. Oh and then he electrocutes him and leaves the room. Burn baybeh!
So yeah, that movie's pretty short, and full of action. Not that it's a bad thing. In fact, I love it. But that's just me.

Ok now that Video Fundamentals and Psychology is over, I finally have time to practice for my exam in Dec. Only 3 weeks left! Starting tomorrow, I have to force myself to go back home once school ends.
So I think I can't get an A for Vidfun, probably a B+ at most. Then there's psychology. I might be able to get an A for that one, hope my presentation didn't screw everything up. Now I'm stuck with stupid Visual Presentation. Even though it seems like an easy subject, it's so freaking boring. Coupled with a lecturer who talks weird, I might take some time getting used to this.
And I finished Gow2. Like finally, I can read the forums without fear of any spoilers. My take on this game? 9/10
Graphics- Out of this world. Ok, not quite, but it is one of the better games with awesome graphics. I never fail to enjoy blowing off locust heads, watching their arms slack, then drop to the ground, dead.
Physics- Not bad. Thing about Gow2 is that there isn't really much outstanding physics going around, coz there isn't any jumping around or whatsoever. It almost seems like the gravity is twice of Earths'. Although, now almost everything is destructible. Shoot a wall, chunks come off. Grenade a car, it explodes. Shoot pillars enough and you can see the steel underlinings below the granite.
Gameplay- Addictive. Like I said, it's always fun destroying them locusts, and with a wide array of weapons, Fenix never fails to get the job done, Although, I have yet to really try Multiplayer. I played it a bit, and though it's fun, it really sucks having to go against real humans out there who can own your ass anytime anyday.

Someone please invent a 30hr day
I don't know how much longer I can go without sleep. 4 days ago, I had maybe 1 hr of sleep? 2 days ago, 2 hrs. 1day ago, 3 hrs. Today? Probably 3 hrs at most. Too much assignments, too little time. So don't mind me if I spout nonsense during this week, or I act weird and shit.
On a happy/side/crazy note, I just tried ''Assassin'' by muse (hard) on Guitar Hero. It's one heck of a song, my right hand got tired after about a minute or so. That's what he said. Still, it was fun, and one day I'm gonna be doing that on expert level.

GHWT & GOW2
Got Guitar Hero and Gears of War 2 yesterday! WOOT! Only problem is that I have so much school work now.. You know how tempting it is to just take the controller and start chainsawing hordes of Locusts? Dayummmm....

Just came back from sec 4 class gathering. What can I say? The journey there was more of an adventure than the gathering itself. Alighted at the wrong stop, then alighted at the correct one. But, after reading Val's message again, I realised I stopped at the wrong church. So I took the bus again, and alighted at another church. Then Val said that I was supposed to alight at the previous one. By then, I was about 2 hours late. -.-
First thought that came to my mind when I reached this huge hallway was : Where is the house? Is it further in? Then I realised the whole friggin thing was her house. 0.0 Almost or maybe bigger than the size of the church next door. Yep, that big. Two ponds, or swamps, as Sam would call it on either sides of the walkway to the kitchen. Oh and they have a baby grand piano. Steinway somemore. Bad move on Val's part to let anyone play on it, coz one of the black keys broke. What a waste!
Quite a lot of the guys were there, in fact, I think almost every guy went. Too bad the same can't be said for the girls. Played those mild games like murderer and polar bear the whole night.. Kinda surprised that not many people wanted to play Tie-tee... Slept on the couch then left at around 6:30 am, and on the way out, we had to climb this gate. Forgetting my mirror's edge skills (partly coz I had almost no sleep), I simply jumped down from up there and landed on my ass. Lol.
All the hype for Mirror's Edge has got me wanting to learn Parkour.

Disturbia

Just watched the movie "Disturbia" played by Shia LaBeouf and Sarah Roemer. Some thoughts about it:
Probability of hot chick living next to you? 1% Ok, maybe 2%
Probability of hot chick getting locked out of her house, then inviting herself over to yours without any prior notice? 0.01%
Probability of hot chick calling you sweet even after she knows that you spied on her through your binoculars? 0.001%
Probability of hot chick falling for you after you kill a serial killer and become a hero? 0.0001%
So yeah, you get the picture. It was a fun movie though.
