2011 Summer Movie BlockBusters (thus far!)

I've been checking on my blog stats and realized my most viewed post is still my review for 2009 Summer Blockbusters. Therefore I had decided to do a new one for now. With the summer movies that I watched thus far, here are some of my thoughts on:

1. Scream 4


Brilliantly written screenplay and hell lot of funny punchlines. I had my jump-on-the-couch moments watching it too! If you don't find the movie funny that's probably because you ain't watching enough of horror/scary movies to get its humors. Note: this is not some cheap parody movies like Scary Movies. One takes great intelligence to watch and the other one doesn't. You be the judge.

2. Fast Five

My first thought was, REALLY? ANOTHER ONE? They all looked effing same to me! I guess the studio realized that too. Therefore, instead of putting too much thoughts on storyline and character developments, they just filled the movie with more actions and gravity defied stunts. The result? A no brainer action flicks that's good for everyone!! HAHA. Anyone else thought it was kinda gay when The Rock was fighting Vin Diesel? I DID! *AWKWARD!


3. Thor

One word: overrated! Natalie Portman was the only draw for me to watch this movie. I am not the biggest superhero flick on this planet, nor will I be. And this movie was just ok to me. Weak plot, too organized I guess. And worst part, Natalie Portman is so replaceable! I am still wondering how they fell in love with each other. Love at first sight?




4. Bridesmaids


HILARIOUS! It served just right as a comedy but I think it was draggy at times and slightly too long. Everyone was so funny nevertheless! There is a NSFW blooper floating around the internet which is equally funny! Check out at your own risk!

5. Priest

Motherfucking @#$%;*&;^%#@!!! An action flick with only 3 action sequences? REALLY? They didn't even try to redeem themselves with this one after the shit they pulled out with Legion. Shame on whoever that involved in both projects!

22

Guess age defines how one celebrates his/her birthday. I just celebrated my birthday way toned down compared to last year, which is good I appreciated the effort of the surprise party but I am not really a big fan of crowd. A normal dinner, great chat with best friends Leo and Chelsea. Argh, these two always make my day.
Right at the center of the city. Gorgeous view + Tropical 'drinks' = Perfections
Who knew dinner can be so much fun. Haha. Second round tomorrow with Olivia at In-N-Out! Wednesday with Elise and Rodrigo, Thursday with.. Friday... apparently its a one week celebration. Ops. HAHA. Happy Birthday to myself again!

if the pic above gives you DejaVu that's because:
They were my Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel. HAHA

Head Sculpture

I love it regardless of the grade I had. I have fun doing it. I wasn't sculpting Medusa. Just because she has long hair doesn't make her Medusa. OK?

(p/s: Happy Birthday sis!)

BUSY

I love how 'occupied' I am with my life now. Love every single bit. Mentioned some time earlier before that I was going to work with Cory on a personal project. And vola~ here it is. Not our best but at least we tried. Working with him was really enjoyable and easy. Here is the video. Finished my fantasy head for sculpture class. Love and hate the class but mostly love because I have the best teacher, hating it because I suck. Will upload the pictures later. So many projects and plans coming up and I can't wait. All the best for me! Till then, pacca~
