What a Sunday!

Went to swim in the wee morning! It's been quite some time I last swan. Swimming is my ONLY best sport! FML Though I really like swimming a lot. Wanna get those fat off my body, tone, firm and be healthy! Apparently, from a gym personal trainer + weighting body weight and fat that I'm FAIR but near OBESE! WTF! Been working out hard for the last month and I lost 1 KG! Happy! So, I wanna keep it up!

PS: I'm still a size S, but somehow the detector said that I have 29% of fat which is a lot! Damn!

After swimming session when to have Japanese Lunch Buffet@Zen, Sunway Pyramid with colleagues. *There goes my hard work out :S * Didn't take any pictures cos wasn't having any photo mode. The food was great, fresh sashimi, yumz! Zen and Rakuzen is under the same group and I have tried Rakuzen Lunch Buffet. The food in the menu is exactly the same and the price is the same too. RM 55 ++ and it's only available for Sunday Lunch Buffet starting from 12pm - 2.30pm. Yes! There's plenty of time to pig out! I love the Green Tea Ice Cream a lot <3 The lunch was so full till everyone want to keep walking around to stop filling stuff!

We hang around and shop a bit. Then everyone was thirsty and one of us haven't try the now very popular Chatime Bubble Tea and so we head on for more calories! *Rolled eyes* The queue was long but we still waited. Got our drinks and we just sit and drank and chat more. By the end of the day, everyone fill like puking out what we had for the day but none did though LOL

Tired and still full... don't think will be eating Japanese food for quite some time and no dinner and next day's breakfast for me.

Pirates of The Caribbean: On Strangers Tides

 Ngek..Ngek...Ngek... I got tickets to watch Pirates of the Caribbean: On Strangers Tides WAY before you all!!!! Hmm... although this is a WAY late post, Blogger PHAIL!!! As to recall for you, I previously had written a post for the movie contest. You can read it here. Big thanks to Nuffnang again! Love you guys!

 Tickets !!!

Watch this movie in 3D but it wasn't as great about watching it in 3D as I thought. So off you go money saver tip, watch this movie in 2D is just as good enough. I guess there wasn't much characters/animals/CG effects that could have a 3D effect on. If it's in cartoon/animation 3D will be awesome! It's a well worth of 2 and a half hours movie. *phew...my ass wasn't hurt from the excitement*

This sequel is not as complicated as the previous and you do not need to remember any of the previous sequels to understand this one. There wasn't much linkage with the previous sequels. There's no Orlando Bloom, no Keira Knightley, no Chow Yong Fatt? (joke phail!) For those absence in this sequel was replaced by Penelope Cruz and Mermaids!!! (Astrid Berges Frisbey as the main mermaid)

Usually Mermaids are always being told that they are beautiful, harmful and sings well. In this movie, Mermaids are being beautiful, sings well, seduce men, rape them and eat their flesh alive! FTL Beautiful yet evil! I like it's how been told in here. There's a battle scene between pirates and mermaids! Mermaids just kick ass! (or tails)

Me not being a spoiler so you should go watch the movie yourself. I will not be telling how the movie is going to be but just on the likings of the movie. I really do like Blackbeard (Ian McShane) as the Evil-of-all-Evil-Pirate. Ian McShae really carries this role to the core! Here's some fun facts that I have found on Blackbeard. Blackbeard was originally a real legendary pirate named Edward Teach who wasn't as Evil as he seem to be in the movie. No wonder, the character seems real to me. Do you feel so?

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Strangers Tides is from a World Fantasy Award for Best Novel and Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel - On Stranger Tides by Tim Powers in 1987. Screenwriters Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio for Pirates of the Caribbean uses the novel as inspiration for this sequel.

I do like the romance between the Priest and the Mermaid. Mysterious yet politely loving. Toward the end of the movie it just makes me keep thinking how will the ending for the Priest and the Mermaid. Some how I think there will be a sequel for them, Captain Jack Sparrow and his new journey with the Black Pearl. Don't want to rave much on Captain Jack Sparrow as it's an awesomesauce character played by Johnny Depp ~ <3 So just go catch the movie before it's not held in cinemas anymore!

Something Borrowed

Tickets to Something Borrowed

 Yup! Got myself tickets to watch Something Borrowed! This time is a contest from MSN. Thank you very much for the movie! Without further ado, here's the trailer and synopsis.

Rachel (Ginnifer Goodwin) is a talented attorney at a top New York law firm, a generous and loyal friend, and, unhappily, still single-as her engaged best friend Darcy (Kate Hudson) is constantly reminding her. But after celebrating her 30th birthday, perpetual good girl Rachel unexpectedly ends up in the arms of the guy she's had a crush on since law school, Dex (Colin Egglesfield)...who just happens to be Darcy's fiancé. As one thing leads to another in the frantic weeks leading up to Darcy's wedding, Rachel finds herself in an impossible situation, caught between her treasured friendship with Darcy and the love of her life. Meanwhile, Ethan (John Krasinski), Rachel's constant confidante and sometimes conscience, is busy evading the affection of Darcy's hopelessly love-struck friend Claire (Ashley Williams) while harboring a secret crush of his own; and the charming and irrepressible Marcus (Steve Howey) has designs on Rachel that don't necessarily exclude any other woman who catches his eye.

 Colin Egglesfield is urber charming! He looks similiar to Tom Cruise but I would so prefer Colin more! I was totally suck by his charm in the movie! *Dreaming* Kate Hudson seem always acting such bitchy role just like in Bride Wars (with Anne Hathaway). Though she's a good actress with a humor, I like to watch her movies.

 Charming right? ~♥

 The movie is quite funny, with Ethan (John Krasinski) and Marcus (Steve Howey) characters in it. If these characters were not in the movie it would be just another boring love story. The storyline for this movie is well develop but the time frame for Rachel (Ginnifer Goodwin and Dex (Colin Egglesfield) to know they both actually love each other dragged a bit long. 

 Took them 6 years to realize... 

 Go watch how the movie ends. I do think the storyline do reflect to a lot us in reality. It's quite true that everyone have dilemma before marriage, after marriage or even about marriage itself. Who is the right one? Will the right one last forever? Do I really love the one I'm with now? Will the love last? What is love? and so on, so on. As the movie's quote " It's a line line between love and friendship", you do really do not know where does the love of your life come along and when. It might be the person that is always by your side. 

I do believe a statement made by Ethan's dad in the movie. "Is not always what we want and what we need to make decisions, is always what is right or wrong and our morality that stop us from making those decisions." It's totally so TRUE! So I do believe that decisions as such really need a lot of courage and support to make. Outsiders may think is wrong but for you is right, who is there to judge? who is there to define what is right and wrong? Is only ourselves that make decisions and by making decisions we need to accept the consequences that comes with it. It's called LIFE, agree? 

Now run along and go watch it, who knows? You may get the answer you want to know ;P    

Priest

Won myself tickets to watch Priest! Thank you Nuffnang, you guys are too good to me!

Nice movie tickets and I <3 Nuffnang badge

This is the movie trailer:



Don't think I need to tell you about the story after you have watch the trailer, like they say a 'trailer' tells it all. Don't want to be a spoiler too ;P

Before commenting on the movie would like to share some food I ate before watching the movie. Went to ate Taiwan Recipe at Midvalley Mega Mall. It's just opposite GSC cinema next to Carl's Jr. It's my first time eating there but I have fond of eating Taiwan food already. Wanted a light dinner so ordered Green Milk Tea, Spicy Beef Hotpot and some Pork Dumplings. The Green Milk Tea was just so so only, nothing special. The Spicy Beef Hotpot is very spicy for me. Although I'm not the kind who can eat spicy food. So, for those chills  lovers you might find it just spicy or not only. Pork Dumplings are tasty. Overall is quite a good meal, prices are slightly reasonable, depending on what you order.

It's time for movie after a grateful meal. Bought popcorn and drinks *yumz*

The action scenes with CG effects are great in this movie combining the great sound effects. The soundtracks are awesome too. I hate it when movie soundtracks were it doesn't suit the scene or the song just sucks.The fight scenes are very cool too. You can feel their pain when either the vampire or the Priest gets hit.

I like the weapons the Priest (Paul Bettany) uses, especially the bible one. At first I really thought, he just reads wanted to read the bible and the vampire will just dead, instead it's those flying ninja darts *don't know what are they called =.=" * I was like brilliant and awesome at the same time! Thought different Priest uses different weapons, cross metal stakes, metal chains, cross bullets and so on.

The bikes in the movie are quite the highlight of it. It's adds class for the movie. The bikes looks classy and authentic with touches of high-tech gadgets.

 

One of the Priest (Maggie Q) on bike

Speaking of Maggie Q, I erm... don't really notice of her acting in any of her movies, probably I don't have any liking of her neither does on hating her. Somehow in this movie, there is a scene where her acting is being notice. Is the scene that she confess her love for the other Priest (Paul Bettany) *almost sob*

The ending for the movie, I feel it's a bit of a disappointment. It kind of a quick ending. The main villain aka Black Hat (Karl Urban) was easily defeated and ends in a quick happy ending way. Although, it show that the Black Hat was defeated but somehow it got us to think, is he really dead? Seems like there will be a sequel.

One thing I do like about the movie is the vampires. They are not those mushy-mushy-handsome-Twilight-vampires. These vampires are mean, angry, fierce and hungry! They are ugly too!

 

Vampires should be scary creatures that scares you, not OMFG-you-are-so-handsome-come-here-and-suck-my-blood-cause-I-want-to-die-and-be-with-you-forever! Nah! Ugly and mean vampires are much more interesting to watch, beside they just give your heart a bigger pump and you might have a hard time going to bed.

It's a above average movie so, you still can head to the cinema and catch the movie so that you know what I'm talking about. Now go!
