SO MUCH FOR NOBLE INTENTIONS and THE FUNNIEST MOVIE I'VE WATCHED THIS YEAR
so much for noble intentions.
got sidetracked on saturday by our animefest that i wasn't able to go to the hospital that day.
potatochips and my sister spent the weekend in our house and watched new episodes of bleach on dvd, non-stop from 4 pm 'til 9 pm. then we had a massage at a nearby spa in the subdivision then proceeded to watch bleach again until 2 am.
woke up on sunday bleary-eyed.
ergo i lost my will to visit the hospital. plus the bar salubong wherein they close down taft avenue and the rain added to my reasons not to go.
hah excuses, excuses.
next time.

SHOOT 'EM UP is the funniest movie i've seen this year
as the title said, it's about shooting 'em up from the start of the movie until the end. something like qunetin tarantino's from dusk 'til dawn, which literally was about killing vampires from dusk to dawn.
so anyway, the situations in the movie were so absurdly funny that i can't help but laugh out loud because of the improbability of it all. imagine clive owen assisting a pregnant prostitute give birth WHILE shooting goons left and right. then he could not find anything to cut the umbillical cord with, he decided to shoot the cord with his gun to free the baby.
duh.
then he runs with the newborn baby with one hand while the other hand shoots then he jumps from one building to another. the baby should've died at that moment with brain damage.
so i decided that i should view the movie like i was watching a quentin tarantino film. i shouldn't take it seriously.
if it weren't for clive owen and monica belucci, i wouldn't have finished the film. i as already asking Other Half to take me home (we were in mall of asia) but he said we ought to watch it until the end so he would have closure. unlike in resident evil, where until this day Other Half is still waiting for his closure because i threw up in SM North's cr due to the claustrophobic feel of the movie so i walked out on it, leaving Other Half scratching his head. he didn't have any choice but to follow me, leaving the movie unfinished.
and he doesn't have the dvd of the movie and he's still searching for it.
back to the subject on hand, shoot 'em up was probably a satire on gun control in the US (which was part of the story) so all the funny violence is not all for naught. as they say, almost all people in America have access to guns.
and oh, clive owen was crunching raw carrots all through out the movie, like bugs bunny. but unlike bugs, clive owen uses his carrots to kill like stabbing the eyes of his oponent with carrots.
and paul gimatti was the principal antagonist.
