So, today Cathay was giving out free tix

Watched Toy Story 3 with Charlene for the 3rd time today -_-


Overall from this 3rd experience, I didn’t laugh as hard as I did the first time at Mr. Potato. I still found Buzz Lightyear’s Spanish dance higggghhhhhlarrrriiioooouuuusssss!!!!!!!!!! And somehow, Rex just gets funnier and funnier everytime.


Then, went to Bugis and bought a vest.


went to Library to slack and then after that, watched She’s Out of My League with Ditaaaaaaa!!!!! It was quite funny, the funniest part was when the ball hit the dude’s KUKUBIRD! Much of the males in the audience groaned LOL. Now i know how a ‘Groan’ sounds like when many are doing it at the same time.


Watched Inception yesterday too! It is about a dream in a dream in a dream in a dream. The layers bit is interesting. I think the director wants audience to have different perceptions, hence different layers of how the storyline is, no???? Eg, maybe the scene where the wife commits suicide actually happened in real life. Maybe it happened in Leonardo Dicaprio’s dream! Maybe she realised that they were infact dreaming and maybe it was Leonardo Dicaprio who was the crazy one who was already in limbo. Dying is the way to kick oneself back up to the previous dream/layer and hence, she commited suicide so that she would be able to kick herself up to the previous dream/layer, hence maybe she was closer to real life than Leonardo Dicaprio was. Then again, maybe she DID commit suicide in real life and is actually just a projection in Leonardo Dicaprio’s dream.


Such a long paragraph i wrote about JUST THAT SCENE.


I saw this online about how the audience reacted when the movie ended. I experienced the same ‘reaction’ too and I found it quite peculiar. So glad that someone was able to put what I thought in words.


From:

“Critics and bloggers and pundits around the world have spent the last week doing two things, consistently: First they’ve been busy praising Inception, and boy did it deserve it. Second, they’ve been trashing moviegoers… and deserve it they don’t.

We’ve only done the first of those two things here on Cinema Blend this week because much like Inception director Christopher Nolan, we believe in all of you. While the world has been quick to declare audiences too dumb to embrace this new masterpiece, Nolan’s movie has burst into theaters determined to assume that you’ll be smart enough to follow along with it. And you know what? He was right. You are, you did, and here’s the evidence.

SPOILER WARNING: If you haven’t seen Inception, go no further. Turn back now! Huge spoilers follow.

Seriously, big spoilers which will ruin the entire movie for you are coming. Get out.

Everyone who hasn’t seen it gone? Great. Let’s keep going.

Inception’s ending is a risky proposition. For an audience that isn’t smart enough to get the movie, it’ll be frustrating, maddening, and disappointing. Yet I’ve seen the movie twice now, and the reaction to what happens at the end has been the same both times… and audible. Friends I’ve talked to who have attended other screenings have reported the same. It’s a sound being heard all around the country right now, an audience reaction quite unlike any other you’ve probably heard after any other film. It’s the sound of people, who are in on what’s going on, and happy to walk out the door without getting all the answers spoonfed to them. It’s the sound of smart moviegoers laughing and groaning all at once, the sound of frustration and delight colliding together in one cacophony.


 This is the sound of awesome. This is the sound of money, filling up your coffers. This is the sound of Inception.”
