The Craze

I don't get Harry Potter.

The books and the movies are easy to figure out; the plot may be a bit thick at times but still can be figured out. Lining up seven hours before the showing of the movie is something I don't get. For books, I can understand why you would do that, you want to know what's going to happen next. But movies? When you already know that Dumbledore dies?

Fail.

My friends on Facebook are relatively smart (some at least):

I cant beleive my cousins went to go wait in line for harry potter today and got there at 5! Theyre still waiting in line! I think theyre at hour number........5 and 1/2 only and hour and a half to go! Hah! Why dont people just wait a week when its easier to go see the movie?
I'm also wondering how the new Potter movie got a PG rating. If you were to watch the movies side by side, you'll see that the theme of the movies get darker and darker. Then there's the people dying and the creepy creatures, I bet Pamper is going to make a fortune from selling diapers to kids who can't sleep anymore.

My reasons for watching Harry Potter?
  1. With friends at Knoxville, then its more funnnn
  2. I'm watching it 4 days after its release
  3. Emma Watson, 'nough said.
Rant of Harry Potter done.

Twilight


I find this picture ironic. Especially when most people using bittorrent are men. Must be downloading for their girlfriend...

Kung Fu Panda

I never think I'll write somewhat of a movie review... but since I saw it and have nothing else to write.

As you probably know, Kung Fu Panda is a star studded movie. Jack Black, Jackie Chan, Angelina Jolie etc (notice all the J's? I call this the J-Team). My expectations for this movie was pretty high as my family already saw it and gave it pretty nice calls. The result after watching it? It is pretty awesome.

The movie itself was pretty well made, but the thing that got it was the nice voices and the humor of the film. Somehow this film delivered an funny experience that can be enjoyed by an adult and children. Fortunately, all the jokes are not recycled crap from the second season of Friends and rather center around a more witty, Chinese-philosophy humor. I like the latter of the two reasons...

While doing some little research for this post, I stumbled upon IMDB's little FAQ section for this movie, guess what it have on there? All the different martial arts styles and their origin. Isn't that awesome? Aren't you blindly by this awesome post?

Leopard Kung Fu (Tai Lung): " Leopard Kung Fu was supposedly created by Jueyuan with help from Bai Yufeng and Li Sou. The emphasis of leopard is speed and angular attack. Leopard Kung Fu does not overwhelm or rely on strength, but instead relies on speed and outsmarting its opponent. The power, as in all kung fu forms, comes from a solid stance, but in Leopard Kung Fu it particularly comes from the aggressive speed. The Leopard Kung Fu practitioner will focus on elbows, knees, low kicks, and Leopard Punches.
:O

8 Harry Potter Movies?

I saw this interesting article in Yahoo! News.

http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/news/ap/20080313/120541260000.html

Apparently, the gist of it is that The Deathly Hollows will be split into two parts. I guess I can see why they would do that, but at the same time, it's more stardom for Harry and more money. Whatever, you can bet that I'm still going to be there at midnight!
