TONIGHT WE DINE IN HELL!!!!!
Published by iJun Sunday, 25 March 2007 in Lost Songs, Films and TV Shows | Popularity: 15% Tags: No Tags.It’s Sunday morning and I haven’t set all my clocks forward an hour. I guess it’s officially spring now, despite the fact that I still have to wear layers of clothing when I go out. I shouldn’t complain really, because the weather is hell when it’s summer.
Oh and speaking of hell…
“Oi duduklah!”
Well that’s a failed attempt at capturing the gigantuous IMAX screen in Southbank, London. The lens of my Minolta compact was just not wide enough to get the whole screen in. To give you a better idea, I’d have to split my shots into 9 sections and put to them together like a jigsaw. And I was sitting at the back!
Yes, it’s THAT big.
I went to watch with James on a Friday afternoon, hoping that there was less of a crowd to allow us to totally enjoy the movie. Unfortunately a lot of people had the same idea. It was a full house by the time the show started!
“Yeaaarrrrrghhhhhhhh!!!!”
What can I say. In my opinion, 300 is a really good movie. Hell (there’s that word again), it’s an awesome movie! Sure the dialogue is a bit camp, but the storyline and awesome battle sequences kept me on my toes all the time.
“To the cliff!!!”
I’m not one for history lessons, but the movie is loosely based on The Battle of Thermopylae and an 1962 movie called The 300 Spartans. To be more precise, it’s a film adaptation of Frank Miller’s epic graphic novel.
“…there is much our cultures could share.”
Gerard Butler plays the lead character as King Leonidas. I clearly remember him in Tomb Raider and he completely looks different here. The same goes for Rodrigo Santoro who plays Xerxes. A complete contrast if you catch him in Charlie’s Angels Full Throttle and Lost.
“has the oracle robbed you of your desire as well?”
I will say this; it’s a purely entertainment movie. Do not expect anything more from it. Although echoing him and him as well but not her, Lena Headey is, most definitely, flaaaammmminnnnn’ hottttt!!!
“it would take more than the words of a druken adolescent girl to rob me of my desire for you…
All set for Wednesday, Jim? 
set, set, jangan tak set.
unnnhhhhhhhhh……….
Hey, I never said Lena Headey was not hot….
saw ‘imagine you and me’. oklah, not bad. was expecting more “brokeback-y” scenes.
It was a romantic comedy la bro. Not L Word.
okay but was it ’sweet’ though?
sweet jugaklah some scenes. but can’t help the feeling that i’ve seen it all before? but headey and perabo’s hot so it’s all good.
