Weekend Addiction

A lot of people have asked me.."Why do I sleep so late?? Are you working??" Well...not exactly. Of late, I have been following a lot of TV series, all thanks to the influence of friends and fellow colleagues and I got to say, it's a really REALLY good way to kill time, and IT'S FUCKING ADDICTIVE!! I can spend the whole weekend locked up in my room watching, with the air conditioning on, munching on snacks (and occasionally alcohol) and in the comfort of my bed. It also does help if your PC is hooked up to an entertainment system which creates a better viewing experience ;)

These are some of the series that I'm currently following:

1. Dexter (Season 1 & 2)
2. Desperate Housewives (Season 4)
3. Nip/Tuck (Season 5)
4. Smallville (Season 7)
5. Cashmere Mafia (Season 1)
6. The 4400 (Season 3 & 4)
7. The L Word (Season 5)
8. Gossip Girl (Season 1)

So as you can see, I literally can be a hermit crab and stay in my shell for the whole weekend distancing myself from the world. Oh, and on top of all these TV series, I also got loads of downloaded movies to watch as well. Which reminds me...let me know if anyone wants any of the series above. Okok...I'm off now to watch some now.... :p

The Long Awaited Weekend..

It has been a really shitty week for me. Late nights and working long hours. There was one night that I was in the office until 3am, because we have a presentation the next day, and the stupid application decided to show off its tantrum by NOT WORKING! - It's always the case isn't it? Big day the next day, and everything gets fucked up the day or night before! Sighsss...so you can imagine how relieved I was when the weekend came.

Friday night, I was also working kinda late (7pm + on a Friday night is consider late ok!), when Zara called to ask me for a movie. When I asked what movie and she said it's some "Rat" movie!. I was like WTF isn't that a cartoon/animation movie?...First of all, I'm not really keen when it comes to watching cartoons/animated movies on the big screen simply because : 1. IT'S A CARTOON! and 2. it usually only lasts slightly more than an hour. So ok, since I really needed the break, and Zara was nice enough to call me so I went to watch Ratatouille (pronounced rat.a.too.ee) and I got to say, it was one of the best if not THE BEST animated movie I have seen! No kidding. Talk about realism in animation. What's more, the movie lasted about 2 hours long! So it made me think that if only all the animations were this good, I don't mind watching. After the movie, we met some friends up at Wabisabi, a Japanese Yakitori bar, where we sort of had supper and dinner in one plus a few glasses of alcohol of course.

Saturday night...

Well, went to Bamboo again only this time, it was because it was Jean's birthday! The night started slow, as we didn't want (or she didn't want rather) to be KOed so early. So we started out with a few jugs of beers. But alas, all hell broke loose when a bottle of Bacardi Apple was unleashed. After that, there were 3 Flamings in a row for the birthday girl followed by more jugs of beer!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEAN!!

The Transformers Movie

This is no doubt the most highly anticipated movie this year. So much secrecy was put into making this movie what it is. I watched it on its very first day of its release here (yay!) and I can tell you, it was definately worth the wait. The Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg combination really lived up to its expectation. While the storyline was erm.."so-so", the fight scenes, the CG and the transformation of the robots was something to make you go "Wow!"

Some pictures from the movie (courtesy of the official Transformers website)

Optimus Prime

Nasty Megatron trying to be King Kong

One of the coolest scenes. Looks like it's "blading" before shredding the vehicle to shreds!

Optimus Prime was definately the best adaptation. His voice is also of the same person who did the cartoon! Only dissapointment? Megatron! He didn't look like Megatron at all. He looked more like a cross between Alien and Predator! Plus he transforms to a jet!?? Ok, don't want to spoil it for those who have yet to watch it, but it's definately worth watching. If you grew up watching or playing with these robots (I did), you will know what I mean.

The 300

I had this rather funny conversation with Michelle recently about The 300 movie which I found it really amusing. If you have watched the movie, you will get the conversation below:

Michelle says: i like 300. gooood. wasn't too concerned about the storyline. it's mythical, epic...
-- demonick™ -- says: ooo...what about the gore?
Michelle says: nah
-- demonick™ -- says: all the slicing and dicing?
Michelle says: its all CG
-- demonick™ -- says: were you freaked out? flying heads?
Michelle says: nope. very cool actually. i think there's a blood splatter template used by the CG artist
-- demonick™ -- says: hahah..good one..blood splatter template dont know that had such thing..
Michelle says: u dont think so...splat here, splat there
-- demonick™ -- says: yeah..but dont think all is the same
Michelle says: the fruity god king is sooo damn coool
-- demonick™ -- says: hahaha.. which part is fruity?
Michelle says: don't tell me u didn't think he was fruity
-- demonick™ -- says: why fruity?
Michelle says: a man who accessorises so much IS fruity
-- demonick™ -- says: but you know in real life he isnt that tall
Michelle says: with a moniker like that! Xerxes
-- demonick™ -- says: try spelling that backwards
Michelle says: sexrex
-- demonick™ -- says: yeah
Michelle says: and?
-- demonick™ -- says: nothing..its just funny
Michelle says: would it be weird to name ur pet dog Xerxes?
-- demonick™ -- says: yeah....i think sexrex is a better name for a dog haha
Michelle says: and those spartans! eye candy!
-- demonick™ -- says: yah...i know...all the girls must be drooling..300 hot men with sculpted bods
Michelle says: half naked greasy man...
