QUARANTINED...


Seriously.. i've forgotten why i selected this movie, i think it's because of most of the movies i'm not interested in. I GOT NO CHOICE but to go for that horror movie. With Lucas and Derrick =D


Lucas was checking out the ticket's time of seating*FAKE-ing* -_-

(and i didn't noe that derrick so chicken.. wakkakaka ) y if u ask me.. becoz i was right beside him when i was watching the movie and he curled up and keep on nagging xDD i even tell him to shut up and watch the movie.


Longtime readers (Hey, you never know, I might have a few of those) may recall that I described Sunshine as being a little like 28 Days Later in space, because so many of the same people worked on both films. Now we have Quarantine, which is 28 Days Later in a Los Angeles apartment building (the darkest apartment building on earth), only without any of the same actors or crew, and not quite as good.

It isn't bad, either, but frankly, there's nothing here you haven't seen before -- except maybe the closeup view of a compound fracture of the leg, and I could've lived just fine without seeing that. There's also the part where you get a close up view of someone being beaten to death, from the point of view of the weapon, but I could've lived without seeing that, too.

Anyway, it's like 28 Days Later, that's the point. It's this small group of people fighting to survive as everyone around them starts going crazy and homicidal, except in this case it's the residents of the apartment building and those few unfortunates that are trying to help them that are in trouble; and the rest of the world is okay. Probably. It's also like Cloverfield because the story is told through a camera in a sort of first-person view, so be prepared for a lot of weird angles and the picture bouncing around all over the place. The middle-aged lady behind me complained about that. She also didn't understand the plot and had to keep asking her friend what was going on. I don't know how I always seem to end up within earshot of these people.

The film is actually never this well-lit, but it's nice to see what the actress looks like.

Scary eh?

A reporter, Angela Vidal (Jennifer Carpenter, from that Dexter TV series), and her cameraman Scott (Steve Harris) are following around two firemen for the night, like on Cops. She follows them on what seems to be a fairly routine medical call, to help an old lady living alone who started shrieking for no apparent reason, and I'm sure she quickly wishes she hadn't followed them, but such is the life of a reporter, I guess. One fireman (Jake, played by Jay Hernandez, who was a cop in Lakeview Terrace) wants to hit on Angela, of course, while the other is the mouthy comic relief. But actually, the characters are very believable for the most part, and it really does seem like you're eavesdropping on things as they happen. And that's cool.

The building tension is also very good, though the explanation at the end is only so-so. But as things get worse, you do feel like you get pulled in to the situation, so in that sense, the film really works. When the credits started rolling, no one in the theatre moved. Before this, someone always bolted for the door as soon as that first name appeared, so that was pretty strange. By the time the last credit rolls, I'm generally the only one left and the theatre employees are by the exit with brooms, dustpans and barely concealed impatience, waiting for me to leave. But not this time!

So it was an enjoyable 89 minutes, except for the gory parts. And you might get motion sickness, but this time I planned ahead and took dramamine, so I'm going by the middle-aged lady's complaints, because I was fine. Yes, I am way too pleased with myself about that. Three and a quarter idols out of five this time -- like I said, the reason behind all the death isn't the greatest, but the acting is so good I'm inclined to forgive that little problem. It even demonstrates why having an antenna TV like mine is better than cable -- at least when you're under seige by the CDC.

to those who're curious or dun even know what's going on here

*November 10th 2008*

It has been some time i didn't hang out with my buddies.. Most of them working part time, sum hav to help their parents in the family business. I miss them as well, kia joo's bro is staying with me during that few days coz he works for the Samsung roadshow in Queensbay Mall which i fail to get the job during my 2nd time interview.. =(

I ♥ Doodlez

Doodlez Doodlez Doodlez... a short animation which is produced by Cellar-Door Productions, u can watch it on Astro's Nickelodeon Asia whenever a tv show ends, it'll come on air for 2 mins of it's animation.. although it's short, i still enjoyed it =D

Let me introduce more about Doodlez..

Our hero, Dood aka main character, is a generally good-natured, if somewhat short-tempered doodle drawn by an omnipotent and unknowable Hand onto a blank page. As Hand draws more and more elements into existence, Dood is led by his overpowering curiosity into a misadventure that more than likely will involve him being put through a veritable blender of cartoon torture. When he comes out the other side, Dood may be broken, but his spirit never is.

Funny and fast-paced, the overall style and attitude of the show is edgy and irreverent, always playing with cartoon conventions. Like any doodle, doesn't have a purpose beyond simple entertainment, it’s completely free and unpredictable. It will take you anywhere, anytime, in an animated world of undefined potential where normal rules don't apply.

Dood doesn't have a whole lot of patience, and will probably not be able to stand a long wait for any gratification. He has a temper, and can be easily irritated or pissed off. Once someone is in his bad books, he will often hold a grudge, and look to one-up them or even get revenge for the slight. But his memory isn't long, and his outlook is generally cheery, so it doesn't take much for him to get over sore feelings if his competitor extends even the slimmest olive branch.

He is very creative and resourceful. There are not many obstacles that he won't be able to eventually surmount. He might get frustrated trying to solve a problem, but nothing can keep him from trying, even after numerous painful failures. He is very persistent and not one for giving up, unless of course he were to be distracted by some other, more attractive goal.

Aww... i ♥ Dood sooooo much!! he's my idol... =D


Be sure to watch Doodlez on Astro or Youtube guys, i hoped u enjoyed it !!
