summer classes are finally over, and first things first-- indiana jones 4 with my cuz sam. and where to? of course, right where my heart is. my home, my davao. (cheez it!... haha)
now about indy 4-- in my honest and completely worthless opinion (meaning, i'm not a movie critic), the movie delivered the necessary goods. there was definitely that element of fun, lots of it, although some are bordering on the ridiculous and idiotic. the cast was great... as usual, cate blanchett gave a very HOOOOT performance (now i'm thinking if i should replace natalie portman... hmmm..). the story was... weird. not that it's a bad thing, it's indiana jones after all. but of the four, this was... uhm.. the most bizaare? that scene with aliens, spaceships and a possessed cate blanchett, suddenly bursting into sparkles of fire... what's up with that yo? and the nuclear bomb scene... i thought it was useless and far out, considering the whole narrative of the crystal skull business. but somehow, it reminded me of the horrors of the atomic bomb, which evidently is terrible and rotten (hiroshima anyone?). that, together with the fact that it's indiana mindless jones we are talking about, IS ODD.
the cliff scene was the one scene that i was really pissed about... literally. if you know me, you'd know that i'm really scared of heights. watching that cliff scene (which, by the way, was really MINDLESS) suddenly gave me the urge to cringe and piss all over my pants. i cannot for the life of me bear to look at cars being hard-pressed into falling in a deep, tropical bangin. and the ants.. the ANTS! SCARY fucking ants.
so...
if you want some grand, eloquent portrayal and declaration about the profundities of life and beyond, you got the wrong side of the tracks dearest. i cannot emphasize it more that this movie is NOT for you.
BUT if all you want is some good fun under the sun, watch indiana jones and you'll surely be flooded with a whole heap of it.
and as for me, and as of now? all i can say is.. what a perfect start to a summer break. indeed, it's a vacation!
looking forward to the drivin', bummin', and the french open. go serena!
currently listening to: the pathetic soundtrack of spelling challenges (it's the only game that i know how to play in my psp (black, shiny and brand new!)... i'm new to this thing. that's how ideal my childhood was. no playstation. just study, eat, sleep, wake up, and then study again. and looky-looky what do we have now? one heck of a fine young boy, that's what. meowth that's me!. hahahahaha... ayaw nag palag.
currently reading: nothing. although i'm tempted by d.h. lawrence's women in love. but eh? it's a vacation, remember? no to nosebleed books, i insist.
