Sherlock Holmes Movie Review



After finally catching serial killer and occult "sorcerer" Lord Blackwood, legendary sleuth Sherlock Holmes and his assistant Dr. Watson can close yet another successful case. But when Blackwood mysteriously returns from the grave and resumes his killing spree, Holmes must take up the hunt once again. Contending with his partner's new fiancée and the dimwitted head of Scotland Yard, the dauntless detective must unravel the clues that will lead him into a twisted web of murder, deceit, and black magic - and the deadly embrace of temptress Irene Adler.

As you know, the author, Arthur Conan Doyle’s most famous characters, “SHERLOCK HOLMES” sends Holmes and his stalwart partner Watson on their latest challenge. Revealing fighting skills as lethal as his legendary intellect, Holmes will battle as never before to bring down a nemesis and unravel a deadly plot that could destroy the country!

Before 12 midnight on 31 Jan, my family and I decide to watch a long awaited of movie "Sherlock Holmes". :P Since I am teenager, I always to read more stories about her and Dr. John Watson. I really love it! But, it is really different than what I read a novel.

O_o Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson always act as cool, but they also argue each other, like old couple but they are very close in their bond of friendship. That is why they are best friend. Dr. Watson never leave Holmes's side when he worried Holmes will face more dangerous mission...I think that Holmes sure need Dr. Watson's help when he is alone to solve mystery about Dark Magic. Holmes is very weird when he is very thinking so deeply and like to try examine about how magic and science can battled it all out...that is why he try to test himself. He needs to understand what is his enemies' mind.... At least, his brain is still working and the elements of criminologist remain intact...Amazing, his skills are use of astute observation, deductive reasoning!
Sometimes, you are seeing humour, action, mesmerizing dialog from Holmes. :D For example, he always show his humour action and talk jokes with Dr. Watson so, I think that he wants to bully Dr.Watson when he is in good mood. If he is in bad mood, he always act so messy, and love to do weird things.. Holmes is really very intelligence guy who think his action 1st before he does..but, he is really fast when he wants to find the answer so quickly! So, he is very risk taker.

Wow, many people wear black during twentieth centuries! They don't have more knowledges about science that compared with today. They always focus on more Politics and Economic in London..

For me, it is very good story. The Sherlock Holmes 2 will come out because I felt that Holmes's enemie will appear and face with him soon... You better to watch this movie if you're Sherlock Holmes's fan! :D

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle is over!


tsubasa chronicle1

Do you know about Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle? It is very popular anime in Japan. Many characters also involved in the Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Anime that the CHAMP taken from Card Captor Sakura, Legal Drug, Angelic Layer, X, Chobits, Magic Knight Rayearth and Tokyo Babylon.

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Anime and Manga, finally be end on last month, September. I really surprised when the CHAMP decided to finish the anime,Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle so, it's great story when you start to watch anime or read this manga..But, the episodes are continue so long time.. When it's come to end, I am really don’t understand about what are Yuuko's meaning (from xXx Holic)and the memories always confuse us! @_@ All are because cloning stuffs! Syaoran and Sakura are cloned..that is why their memories are created and sometimes mix with other memories...

It is really sad and painful about Syaoran and Sakura clone because they were given a third chance at life due to some awesome loop hole and all the sacrifices made throughout the series. When a creator, Fei Wong Reed who is died, they must be dead but somewhere in another universe the clones are reborn with no past memories and we see them passing each other on the street, giving them a hope to live..I think like see them before in other manga that is related with Card Captor Sakura.

Photobucket

Before this come to end, I also surprised that Clone Sakura said Watanuki is same as real Syaoran! I am sure that Yuuko also knew it from the beginning when she met Watanuki in other manga (xXx Holic). The CHAMP is really smart! They make the connection between tsubasa reservoir chronicle and xXx Holic are very interesting and make us curious more about who are Watanuki and Syaoran? From beginning, I thought Watanuki and Syaoran are brothers, but they are not because their personality are different! In the truth, Watanuki is a part of real Syaoran.

When I read this manga, real Syaoran wanted to give up before Watanuki’s explanation. He was thinking about giving up his life because the clone Syaoran or real Syaoran would be too much of a price to pay.. I am really touched about Watanuki tells real Syaoran that he is happy that he was born. Even though he said “Thank you for giving birth to me” - what Watanuki really is saying “I forgive you for forcing your decisions on to other people and creating me to live a miserable life”. This is all because Fei Wong Reed wanted to bring Yuko back to life and forced Syaoran pay a price for this, that is why Watanuki is existed in other world (xXx Holic). The point is Watanuki is okay with his existence and also happy about what he live in his world and meet friends, and spirits which are very important to him.

Finally, real Syaoran and Sakura get their clones' memories inside their body. They are very sad and understand that their clones are very suffered through their jounery like 'Circle of Time', mean it never to be end for them..So, they have to do something for real syaoran and sakura with their survive of life. This is giving them to start a new life, mean real Syaoran decide to make new jounery to find what's an important of meaning in his life. Fai and Kurogane also join him..Real Sakura cannot join in, but it's really give a surprise to me!! They finally said their true name are 'Tsubasa'! Syaoran and Sakura share the SAME name. What have we learned from this entire series? That in every universe there is someone just like you that shares the same heart, soul, and name. Gender might not matter and their appearance might not be the same. So…..are Syaoran and Sakura the same person? Why they don't tell their real names in the beginning of story? O_O Maybe they hide something from..?? Why did Sakura have to hide her name all this time? Why does her family call her Sakura? This is more question which are given by the readers.. :P

sakura and syaoran

I think that Sakura said "we will meet each other again". This means that CHAMP want to do new manga again? What I think about this story gives you many meaningful about what is an important life in the universal - they will meet same person in another world and share their experience in other world. For example, Sakura, Fai, Syaoran and Kuragone meet same person that they knew in another world, but same person don't know who are them, no matter same person's soul are exisited in anywhere - universal.

This story is great! Sakura and Syaoran are the teenager, sometimes different than
they are kids in the Card Captor Sakura. I am to be honest.. I prefer that the Card Captor Sakura because it is very cute and fantasy. :P I will read new manga again if CHAMP do new one!

Harry Potter and Half of Blood Prince Review


Summary

In Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft, Harry finds a book marked mysteriously, "This book is the property of the Half Blood Prince," which helps him excel at Potions class and teaches him a few dark and dangerous ones along the way. Meanwhile, Harry is taking private lessons with Dumbledore in order to find out about Voldemort's past so they can find out what might his only weakness.


Long time I not see this movie~ but i feel that the previous movie; Harry Potter 1, 2 and 3 are better than now. After that, I not see the Harry Potter movie 4 and 5 again because I always busy with my studies. I also have the collection books - Harry Potter at my home! :D I think that it is better to read the books than watch movie because sometimes the movie have to be shorten time and separate the different scenes.


They not always use magic to fight with the evil people and it showed that less action only, so, they also used to talk alot lot..but there are an interesting scene about how to study magic in the Hogwarts school; Harry is also learning a lot from an old Potions textbook that contains clever notes from someone self-styled the "Half-Blood Prince.". And they played interesting game, Quidditch but this game don't take long time.. :(

The 6th movie isn't too scary for the kids, with a good dose of humor, relationship between friends - Love, charm , and more close with dark forces. This chapter ends with a moment of steeled resolve as Harry prepares himself to make the journey and fight his enemies..

To be honest, I am really boring because it took 2 1/2 hours long! It make me want to sleep :( Hehe..I hope that next movie will be better on next year!

Natsume Yuujinchou



Summary

From the first season, Natsume was born with his ability to see spirits and this ability wasn’t an easy burden to carry. As a child he didn’t realize that other people couldn’t see the same things as he. So while his parents might have put up with it, when they died and he went to live with relatives – they found him creepy and didn’t want anything to do with him. Eventually Natsume gets passed to a distantly related household of a older childless couple. This couple treat Natsume kindly and he attempts to cover-up his ability because he does not want to be a bother to them.

The “Book of Friends”, as you’d imagine, is a very powerful item since Reiko defeated so many spirits in her time. As a consequence, many spirits would love to get their hands on it and many other spirits would simply like their names back. To help protect himself Natsume extracts a promise from Nyanko-sensei to be his bodyguard. So over the course of the series we get to meet spirits that want the book or want their names back or just Natsume’s help.

For more info, please visit WikiPekia: Natsume's Book of Friends.

-----------------------------------------------------------

There are getting two seasons; Natsume Yuujinchou and Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou. I think that Natsume Yuujinchou is a perfect summer-series. This story shines in the dream-like atmosphere it manages to create the calm and happniess that you can relax at as it progresses with its heart-warming stories about the interaction between spirits and humans. Many youkai are different creatures in the world! O_O Some youkai don't like human, sometimes they like human.. Some want the strong power, or many..

I really like Nyanko-sensei because it is cute cat spirit! :D First time, I saw this cat is different and looks as 'lucky cat' than normal cat.. :) Really good idea! He always love to drink sake, eating a lot, and still acts as 'funny' cat who is very sturborn! ^ ^ He always fight with Natsume.. But, he is very strong when he transformed into real 'white wolf'! Natsume is not strong as his grandmother but he still want to help the youkai and try to understand them about what they like to interact with human...

I feel pity about Natsume because he don't have any friends and always stay alone... Since he moved into his grandma's place, the 'Book of Friends' changed his life and he spend alot time with Nyanko-sensei to meet a lot of youkai who know his grandma so very well.. He also get new friends; classmates; a friend who can see the spirit and etc...Wow, Natsume is very famous and really alike as his grandma! I thought that Natsume's grandma hates human because they always bully her or don't want to near her.... :P but her heart is very care about youkai and human... She never forget them.. I wonder why she leave many things that she never solve the problem..? Maybe she wants to make her generation continue this..?

This story is really great and make funny scenes, especially nyanko-sensei.. XD The artwork is simple but it make more interesting about different youkai and the touching stories! You better to get the chance to catch this great show, I’d strongly recommend that you do!

Today, they sell the anime DVD 'Natsume Yuujinchou 1 / Zoku Natsume Yuujinchou 2' with Free CD soundtrack music. It costs RM 33.90. You can buy it from the Anime Shop, Speedy shop or anywhere..

Enjoy to read the Onemanga: Natsume Yuujinchou

Angels & Demons



THE SUMMARY Angels & Demons is based on the novel by Dan Brown and has a returning Tom Hanks as Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon. He is called upon by the Vatican to help investigate the kidnapping of four Roman Cardinals during the voting in of a new pope. What he finds is more a terrorist threat. A bomb has been planted somewhere in Vatican City and it is up to Langdon, a female scientist Vittoria Vetra (Ayelet Zurer ) and the prior popes right hand man Camerlengo Patrick McKenna (Ewan McGregor) to figure out ancient clues to find the bomb and save the Cardinals. It is a race against time and old church tradition. The terrorist plot points toward an ancient sect known as The Illuminati, a group who has a century’s old vendetta against the Catholic Church. Langdon must decipher their history in order to find the clues necessary to save the day!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have two famous books; Angels & Demons and Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown because it make me like to know more about the mystery murder which is related with the historical information 'Jesus' and 'Vatican's secret'.

When I watched the movie, it added some history of Rome was awesome and guide to the path which give the interesting information...
I think that Robert's performance and spirit with a nice touch and sense of humor. :) I like the Angels & Demons because it is better than the Da Vinci Code movie because it combines ancient church culture, a thrilling race against time, and a treasure hunt of Roman artistry, amazing history about elements and science, and mysterious places.. When a priest meet Robert Langdon, he asks, "Do you believe in God?" Well, it is hard to answer this question for me, so it depends on your life to believe what you see in your heart or keep to faith in God?

I am thinking a question about antimatter bomb, a tiny device with the power of a nuclear warhead is existed in our world or not? The landscape of clouds looks great and beautiful when the antimatter bomb finish the battery, then want to BOM!.. This is very interesting story...You need to find out who is real bad guy behind this plan to destroy the Vatican! :P You will enjoy the movie for what it is: an exciting mystery, set in the awe-inspiring beauty of Rome, murder at the Vatican and a secret and powerful society known as the "Illuminati"!

I found an interesting web site about the truth of "Angels and Demons" that give many questions which related with religion and science. - Source: truthaboutangelsanddemons.com

Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus



THE SUMMARY

The game begins with a flashback to the ending of Final Fantasy VII. As Meteor looms overhead, Yuffie and Vincent are in Midgar helping with the evacuation. Vincent tells Yuffie to check the Mako Cannon. She does so, and the device she is using finds a single person still alive there. Despite Yuffie's protests, Vincent ascends the Cannon to the firing controls to find the slumped body of Hojo. Vincent trains his triple-barreled handgun, Cerberus, on him but, just as he is about to fire, an explosion blows Hojo's body away and causes the tower to start crumbling. Vincent is narrowly rescued by Yuffie on a hovercraft, after which they rendez-vous with Cloud and the others.

Three years later, Vincent is actually sitting alone in a hotel room in Kalm, where a celebration is taking place to commemorate the three-year anniversary of Meteorfall. A nearby television shows a news report about a recently uncovered entrance to an unknown part of the Shinra complex deep underground, where it is rumored a force of soldiers more powerful than SOLDIER were created... Will Vincent and his friends will save this world?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus is not an RPG game.. You will play as "shooter" and use the clunky dual analog controls, and shoulder buttons are used for shooting, buying the items and pick the weapon..This game have amazing 3D graphics with innovative and fun gameplay, a captivating story and interesting characters! It is alike Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children movie that we used to watch before.

I don't know why they chose Vincent Valentine as main character for this game. I think that a lot of Final Fantasy VII fans liked their favorite' character, Vincent Valentine? He is very mysterious guy so, we don't know about him since we play the old game, Final Fantasy VII... His background was shrouded in mystery and what little was revealed was a tale of love lost, human suffering, and bizarre altercations to his physical and mental state.. That is why they really want to see Vincent's story~!

I saw a lot of characters return from the original game for helping Vincent Valentine to fight Professor Hojo..but, I am sad about Red XIII not appear in the battle, but he is with Shelke Rui at the ending only... We also see Lucrecia Crescent's role in the overall story, which related with Vincent Valentine in his past time. We will know about why Lucrecia give birth her babby, "Sephiroth" and what happened between Lucrecia and Vincent.. I feel pity because Lucrecia and Vincent love each other but, they cannot to be together because Lucrecia turn down on him? You will know about what happened to them when you play this game! :D

In the gameplay, he looks "cool" in every chapther! Mostly, Reeve and Yuffie always with Vincent since the enemies attacked Reeve's top secret places... It make me confused! @_@ It always make me looking in the wrong direction of where I should be shooting! It was difficult to turn quickly and face targets, especially bosses who move very quickly! I hate it! Worst, he don't carry more potions and bullets! I have to find a shop to buy many potions while I fight with big boss! :( But, there are some equipment and weapon styles: Different guns, barrels, scopes, attachments, and even Materia (magic). It depends on your decision to equip/upgrade your own into the powerful weapon but, you need more gils! You have to kill the enemies so you can get more Gils..it is not easy! Haha! Limit Breaks are treated as items, and can only be used after short time.. :P I not always use Limit Breaks because it is 'fighting', not shoot enemies.. It is waste time because the enemies always move so fast! When it come to final chapter, I easy to kill enemies and Omega Weapon..Haha! I just continue to bang bang Omega Weapon until it killed so easily..O_o than other chapters- big bosses... So, it is not bad..Haha.

We will see our favorite characters remade with such amazing graphics at the ending story..It is very beautiful story.. :) Before you start this game, I suggest you better to learn the tutorial: how to shoot, equip weapon, jump and etc.. Because it don't have tutorials when you start a story.. Don't worry, you can select the tutorials before you continue story on anytime.. :)

Knowing



THE SUMMARY

In 1958, as part of the dedication ceremony for a new elementary school, a group of students is asked to draw pictures to be stored in a time capsule. But one of the students, a mysterious girl who seems to hear whispered voices, fills her sheet of paper with rows of apparently random numbers instead.

Fast forward 50 years to the present: A new generation of students examines the contents of the time capsule and the girl's cryptic message ends up in the hands of young Caleb Myles. But it is Caleb's father, professor Ted Myles (Nicolas Cage), who makes the startling discovery that the encoded message predicts with pinpoint accuracy the dates, death tolls and coordinates of every major disaster of the past 50 years. As Ted further unravels the document's secrets, he realizes it foretells three additional events-the last of which hints at destruction on a global scale and seems to somehow involve Ted and his son...


numbers knowing


KNOWING There is a pattern to predicting the future. There is an order to our deepest fears. It make me thought deeply about..

Wow, It's about the end of the world and how one young girl named Lucinda saw it coming 50 years ago..She has a power? Maybe she hears a voice from god? or angels? How do you protect who you love from everything you know? Who are "The Angel of the Apocalypse" or messengers from an other time or dimension?

From begining, Caleb show his sign language! He is deaf but, he can speak so very well and study in the hearing school..The scenes about the plane and train crash were pretty impressive! It like BOOMING but Ted Myles still be alive! Not injure or die??! More interesting about the men in black who hover around Caleb like a clutch of crows. They appear mostly at night, standing watch over Caleb.. They looks as very dangerous... It make me thought that they want to give a warning to Caleb..O_o

But, it is weird.. Why they used mysterious rocks? Its black rock..maybe symbol as 'death'? They will give it to a person who will die later..Who knows it? I not sure..

You will know the answer when it come to the ending..It is sad and cannot escape from the end of world!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You can imagine when a driver who is driving a taxi along, the movie drove and took you to witness an adventure of a lifetime! O_o A UFO still is hunting you no matter where are you! Wow, the children are the alien?! O_O Cool..they have their own abilities..I think that it like the "Heros"..You will see this movie by yourself! :P

When Jack discovers the children’s true identities and their missions to save Earth! An alien army are on a mission to hunt down the kids...I thought that an alien solider is alike as the children..But, noo! His face is very ugly! >_<

Too bad he isn't getting paid much for his job anyway. Later, Reiko and Tadao meet a spirit named Oniku who comes to help them in solving the mysteries of the supernatural..

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I remembered that this is very old manga since I finished my primary school..I love the comendy story! It also translated as Bahasa Malaysia.. Sad, it is not yet to be complete! This art looks pretty good for this type of monster hunting mission.. Wow.. Reiko Mikami is the best ghost sweeper in Japan. She'll accept any job no matter how dangerous as long as the price is higher! She is very strong than her enemies..She refuses to give up! Tadao are very stupid and pervert! But, he suddnelly be strong when he got his ability from a god... One day, he can protect Mikami and Kinu? :P He always don't want to be killed..Haha this is funny..

They also busy with the vampire, wolf, ghosts, and demon mission. It is not easy but luckily, they got help from a god! O_o Mikami got an ability time-lighting from her mom! She can go to the past or future! But, she don't control her own ability..

Tactics


THE SUMMARY

Tactics follows the exploits of the young man with the ability to see goblins and other mythical beasts named Kantarou Ichinomiya. Ever since he was born he had the 6th sense to see the demons and others mythical creatures called “Oni”. When he was a little boy his friend Oni told him about the creature that is stronger than Oni called “Tengu”, it is the legendary demon-eating goblin. Since that story told him he dream to have a Tengu that will be his buddy forever. When he grew up he became a folklorist, who write books and article about Japanese folklore, but he also work as a monster buster secretly. In the episode “The Black Goblin Awakens”, Kantarou went to exorcise monster he was lead to a rural shrine up in the mountain where the Tengu, demon-eating goblin was sealed there. When Kantarou breaks the seal, he named the Tengu Haruka, in naming a Tengu it forces to be a slave of someone who gave name with it. As the fulfillment of Kantarou dream, Haruka became his partner in fighting the evil Oni. With his tengu and his kitsune, they solve mysteries, and help the yokai situation in Japan.

For more information about Tactics

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I like the mystery screen about Minamoto Raiko and his group of soldiers come in. Together with another formidable demon, Raiko and his attendants plot many plans to try and force Kantarou to cancel the name contract or make Haruka awaken his real powers, such that they would be able to capture Haruka and present him to "that person" whose identity is unknown. If the name contract is not canceled or if the master dies, Haruka's power would forever be restrained and he would not be able to be used by the antagonists. But unfortunately those antagonist did not success in their evil mission and Haruka back in his senses and go back to Kantarou. They start again and do their usual routine such as fighting evil spirit and saving people. So, this make me curious about who is Haruko's previous master because I saw his previous master alike as Kantarou.. Maybe is Kantarou's dad or grandpa.. :D

It is weird that Haruka love to wear a tuxedo after he released from his seal.. :P Maybe he hate to wear the traditional cloth that remind him to remember his past? Or he changed his personality since he wakes up from sleep..? Well, my friends said this is the somewhat unspoken love between Kantarou and Haruka. So, the underlying homosexual tension never evolves nor is mentioned by any character, it is evident throughout the series … until the end where their relationship turns sour..

But, we sure said this story is very good and get funny characters also give u laugh out!

Enjoy to read the manga Tactics or you try to buy it in the anime shop.

When I visit the anime blog, I found out the the Aria's art was vibrant a full of rich colour, just like in the original! So, I try to read this manga, then it really make me feel comfortable and fell love with the looking of beautiful cities in the Mars planet!! Aria is a beautifully done little treasure that I think is best story with the good value & moral teaching. It also have beautiful graphic of 'four seasons'- summer, winter, fall, autumn! Some festivals involved in the city, such as, Mask Festival, Fox temple, and many! It is very good! I really like this graphic.. There are most mysterious places is very unique! Especially, Cat Sith's world! That's why the artwork is wonderous, and sometimes captivating in it’s wide visuals of the beautiful city of Neo Venezia. It is really quiet joyful reading..and attract more readers love to read the Aria manga.

Many times though the overall enjoyment overrules those tedious episodes. However with Aria, I have never once gotten bored with it and I want more episodes and more story and more goodness from Neo-Venezia!

Ghost Hunt
is getting exciting. I think that it is good story because this is a bit thriller and supernatural, but Mai is very cheerful and funny! :D . I really like about how the team investigated the mysterious of place; hospital, school, church, and etc.. :D Before I started to watch this horror 'Ghost Hunt', I thought that it will be boring if the story will make you scary only! But, it got comedy and enjoyable series too! :D Then it is nice and make me curious about what's next answer so I cannot wait for next episodes! ^ ^ Wow, there are the people have different ability for the ghost/spirit of exorcisman that joined in a team, such as an Onmyoji user, Buddhist Monk, Miko priestess, Catholic exorcist priest, and Spirit medium which have the ability to speak to the dead! It make me wonder if they are strong ot not! :D

Kazuya Shibuya is very quiet guy because he don't like social with people..Maybe he has other reason? His team always call him - his nickname "Naru". Mai thought that Naru is rude because he ingnore what she is trying to talk with.. But, Naru is not bad guy because his action are protecting Mai and his team.. :) It is weird about why Mai always dreaming about when she is in danger, other "Naru" appeared to her suddnelly..His personality is different than "Naru" ! O_O He always smile and try to tell her about what she needs to do.. Who is other "Naru" in Mai's dream?

This series is really nice and has 1 - 25 episodes only.. I really hope that they will do the 'Ghost Hunt' season two! You better to watch this anime! :D

Ghost House



THE SUMMARY

It happens on one night when the police are informed that people heard a scream of a girl from a house, and that she might is suspected of being hurt. The police arrive at the house to find that its owner is a 30-year-old woman who just moved in with her 7-year-old daughter. The kid shows symptoms of mental illness. Her arms are bruised. The mother refuses to have her daughter sent for a medical check-up. However, due to legal condition, she has to take her daughter to see a psychiatrist. And that is the first time Krit meets Ing-On and the poor neurotic girl “Phrae”


During the treatment Ing-On tells Krit about Phrae’s symptoms of hallucination and paranoid. However, the girl insists that she has been harassed by the evil spirit of a boy, not by her mother. Krit sympathizes with Phrae because she is of the same age as his child. But the closer Krit gets to this family, the more he feels that the house has some mysterious ambience and there are some inexplicable things happening: the sudden change of Ing-On’s emotional status; her strange way of raising her daughter, and the mysterious fingerprints on Phrae’s arms. Krit has to find out the answer as to who or what caused them.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I thought it is really very horror but when I was watching this movie, this movie was very disappointing. It is not completely horror movie, didn't feature that much supernatural being in this movie. This movie focuses more on
psychology or mental illness problem which causing the victim themselves hallucinated what they wished for. Or it is rather be called a "Memory Creation" to satisfy or abuse their own emotions! That's all I can tell only. I don't think I can elaborate more about this movie as this movie is not that "grabbing attention" one. As I know, Thai is supposed to be a great producer for horror-genred movie! But this time, this movie got no good else!

Paprika


Ah, you want to know what is that "paprika"? Hmm, paprika is a spice made from the grinding of dried sweet red or green bell peppers. Oh, don't get me wrong. What I am talking about Paprika is a Japanese animated science fiction film based on Yasutaka Tsutsui's 1993 novel of the same name, which is directed by Satoshi Kon and animated by Madhouse Studios.


FULL SUMMARY

In this Japanese anime epic where the humanity's last bastion of privacy has finally infiltrated by technology meaning is the world of our dream, the story focuses on a new invention called the DC-Mini. With this revolutionary device, it allow the psychiatrists to enter a patient's dream to observe their dream and explore their unconscious thought. So basically it is the purpose for a therapeutic setting.

But an unknown assailant steals all of the devices, using them to enter people's dreams thus enacting mind control and giving the culprit an opportunity to get away with all sorts of malicious deeds. Now a chaos ensues as people's dreams begin to bleed and blend into reality and the thin line between the conscious and the unconscious begins to blur.

Enter a young female researcher named Chiba to take it upon herself by delving into the newly anarchic dream world in order to make and set things to be straight back. In this surreal realms, she is known as Paprika and she is set off to save the world, with a bursting emotion, fantastic imagery and breathtakingly innovation adventure through the dream realm.

My colleague, Farid passed this movie to me, insisting me to watch this movie. Though he didn't watch this movie.. -_- Well, on that time, I has nothing to do so I watched this movie. Wow, this movie has a very deep level of understanding and mostly related to reality and science which I hate, hehehe... I watched this movie for the first time and I didn't understand. So I repeated to watch this movie once again, I finally got it. It's a slightly same with Matrix. I think it is really high recommended to you people to watch.

This movie emphasizes on the people's conscience. This technology allows the doctors, scientists or psychiatrists to find out and study on what the people is thinking. In my opinion, it is really a good invention but it is dangerous one as well. If this device is really created in reality and no one take a good care of it, bad people can use this chance to do something bad on our mind i.e damaging our mind.

Alright, here's the link of Paprika if you are interested to know more information related to this movie. Enjoy ya...

Mythbusters is typically shot in San Francisco; planning and some experimentation takes place at the cast's workshops; some experiments that require more space or special accommodations are filmed on location around the Bay, and occasionally the show travels to other states or countries.. Visit the website Discovery; Mythbusters

Mythbusters is my favorite show, will be exploring the rumors about if you leave your Xmas tree lights on all night it just might burst into flames!! Fun!! Also, a very dangerous vodka myth! The lovely and talented Kari will find out if pouring vodka on a jellyfish sting will ease the pain. Personally, if I got stung by a jelly fish, I'd drink the vokda. But that's just me. It is funny when the other team-three expert assistants;Kart, Tory and Grant try to build some serious alien technology - anti-gravity.. Kart is cheerful girl, who really enjoy to do some experitmentation! That is why she is very good in her favourite subject; science. Grant is a genius?! He can bulid the electronics, and technology by himself.. o_O Tory is good bulider, but he likes to give a try to test some dangerous things by himself!

Try to catch AXN, channel 701 at 9.oopm on every saturday! :D
