Hatter's Futterwacken

Managed to catch Alice in Wonderland yesterday, at the cinema. And dear Syuhada! You might wanna read my review, cause I know you're somewhat a fanatic of the movie =D

I have to say, the movie didn't turn out quite the way I had expected. Infact, most of the things in that movie didn't turn out quite the way I had expected. Which I find it rather disappointing than amusing. Yes -Boo me as if I'm Simon Cowell on a critical idol night. lol. Anyway, the movie is more of a sequal to the first (original) Alice in Wonderland story -regardless- whether you've read it in the book or watched that old animated movie of it in Disney channel. In this movie -Alice came back to Wonderland -I don't know, when in her 20's i guess- and didn't even remember of her first visit to Wonderland few years ago (seriously -why did the movie makers made her forget) And now when she came back, all of them living creatures in Wonderland (that has met Alice before) was like "this is so not Alice. Nu-uh" and Alice was like "I'm so Alice uh-huh, but who are you?" HAHAA. okay so I modified that dialogue abit. So what? =p

However, the most noticed-boring parts of the movie was when Alice changes in size. At a moment Alice was small because she drank a weird potion of some kind. And at another moment she became bigger by eating this small cake. But that wasn't the end of her altering sizes in that movie. Because it was followed by more eating and drinking of those weird things, thus Alice was like big and small and big and small throughout the movie, wait i think she was medium sized in the ending. But STILL.

Well in conclussion, I won't say that the movie was rottenly bad, because it totally was not. It was entertaining and fun nontheless -especially when Hatter made his hit Futterwacken dance - just that, for me, the stoyline was well..a bit narrow and crooked. Wish it was more like the original Alice in Wonderland. I guess the movie makers have their reasons why they didn't made it as so. But uh -this is what I think. I dont know about you guys. And dear Syuhada, hope I didn't brought your hopes down about the movie by shedding all it's flaws. lol.

And OHH! I am so looking forward to watch this movie:

Its also known as the Avatar. I've been following it's animated series in Nickelodeon since last year. Theres something quite distinctive and creative about it that made it stand out from the other animated series. Totally. And I can't believe why Dev Patel, that guy from Slumdog Millionaire, has to play the role of Zuko in the movie. Zuko is a descendant of the chinese Fire Nation. CHINESE. Dev is Brittish-Indian. Which won't make any sense if he is to play the role of a chinese descendant. Unless! Unless the movie makers changed the Fire Nation to a descendance of indians. On the contrary, that'll be intersting. I'm still gonna watch it, regardless. Til next time, people!

You GLEEK!

It feels great to be back on track with my blog. I left iWaly redundant for what? like 3 months now? lol. I feel like putting the blame on Facebook though, because somehow it killed my blogging mojo. Well probably not only mine, because I find some other bloggers lacked post updates as well. Now that my blogging mojo is back from the dead, I feel like making an update on this dusty blog. So here I am blogging my way back to square one. Besides I really need to keep in touch with my blogging friends. And my readers, which I guess I don't have them as much as I usually do in the old days, because of my lacking updates. Blablabla I think I'm gonna skip to the point: I want you guys back! =)
So anyway, I wonder how many of you watch Glee?

I just finished watching half of it's Season 1 which is only up to episode 13 (the other half hasn't premiered yet) And it was just awesome! and motivating nonetheless. They make achieving goals look easy, literally its always easy, if you just believe in yourself despite peoples' judgments. Wait, that did'nt make me sound like a hippie, did'nt it? lol.

The funniest Glee has to offer is in episode 4. Here's a clip:

And I personally thank my dearest friend Ziqah Mesli for turning me into GLEEK! lol.

Book Review: Gone

The book was written by Michael Grant. One of the worlds best selling books of 2008. I've been craving for this book ever since i saw its first promotion in Harperteen. Now, i cant help myself from divulging the fact that the book is right here in front of me. Before i countinue a word longer in this post; i would like to thank my Uncle Ben for buying me the book from KL. Gracia's!

The book contains 576 pages, 47 chapters. Well, to be honest, i havent actually finished the book. hehe. I am currently in Chapter 5! Believe it or not. Gah! still a long way to go. But my experience through out the first 4 chapters was utterly engrossing. And i'll wonder what the other unread chapters will bring me next. Yeah! This is one bizzare book. Read the preview:

Except for the young: Teens, Middle schoolers, Toddlers. But not a single adult! No teahers, no cops, no doctors, no parents. And just suddenly, there are no phones, no internet, no television. No way to figure out what's happened. And no way to get help! -End of preview-

So...How'd it sound like. Im sure it will captivate the minds of teenagers. But i dont think some adults enjoy books like this. hehe. Well, my review (Throgh out the first 4 chapters i've read) : The story was full of suspense, suprises, expectations, hopes, mysteries, thrills. Anything you can imagine. But nontheless amusingly Funny!

I dont want to type much about my review, Because first thing: I havent read the whole book. I barely even reach a quater in statement. Secondly: This is my first time making a review on a book. Although its pretty unusual. Anyways..If my review isnt enough to captivate your minds. Hey wait, heres a fact:  Dont judge a book by looking at its cover. You judge it by its Trailer! Haha. Nah, im just kidding. But seriously, the book gots its own official trailer. Check it out!!
