movie} the good, the bad, the weird. 180909

The Good ,

The Bad,

The Weird.

"One map. Three villians. Winner takes all."

The background is the wilderness of 1930s Manchuria. The Bad (a hitman) is hired to acquire a treasure map from a Japanese official traveling on a train, but The Weird (a thief) steals the map from the Japanese official when he robs him on the train. Just after that, The Bad manages to stop the train and a slaughter of Japanese and Manchurian guards ensues. The Good (a Bounty hunter) appears on the scene with his shotgun in hand and tries to kill The Bad. Meanwhile The Weird manages to escape to the Ghost Market, to figure the map out and escape from his pursuers. In this unpredictable, escalating battle for the map with the Imperial Japanese Army, and Manchurian bandits also after the map, who will survive and claim the supposed treasure?

The Good, The Bad, The Weird

(although they're standing in a "The Good, The Weird, The Bad" position. hahaha.)

I must say, this movie is not bad. Really action packed. (: It's PG-18 though, for its violence.

But the main reason why I watched this is because..

Lee Byung Hun is taking the role as THE BAD. Him in black suit is WOW.

Eeeep, eye candy! :D ! His evil-ness is really yummy. No mercy, like seriously. I think the most favourite part in this movie is the train scene. The three baddies get together without knowing anything yet. THE WEIRD is also a really funny character, he makes the show fun with his presence. THE GOOD, hmm, just like a good guy in any films. I really like his outfit though. He somehow reminds me of my younger days Kemahiran Hidup (Living Skills) teacher.

Don't want to write much about this, but overall, I liked the movie. (:

movie+outing} G.I. Joe ♥ and the week's recap

Yes, holidays. A week of 'em. :)

Well, this may not be the "full" update, but this are some of the recaps. :D

* Saturday 22/8/09

Had a "so-called" impromptu trip with Wei and Wen to 1U. [Pssh, don't remind me about the planning, seriously, its like a havoc that time.]

Reason? Watch a movie! :) So yeah, we started at like, 12.30pm, picking her up from her house, and reaching the destination within 50 minutes. Today is a working day for all the workers, so yeah, it was quite jammed. :/ But we reached 1U safely, and went to buy the tickets.

I thought there was going to be A LOT of people, but no. Not even a single soul in the queue-up line. So yeah. We thought about watching many many many movies, (Yes, Wei had many ideas in her mind), and we ended up choosing G.I. Joe. It was 1.30pm that time, and the movie is at 3pm.

So we went to many many shops and ate Secret Recipe for lunch. Bought the Harry Potter CD for my friend. LOL. Funny. Forgot to bring camera. :/ So didn't take any pictures.

Anyway, we had only an hour or so to eat our lunch.

3pm, watched the movie. Hmm, my thoughts about the movie? Well, it's really action-packed. Uses a lot of technology stuff. Storyline is, 3.5/5 . I never watched the first one yet, so basically, I don't get the storyline. But what I love the most about this movie is..

Storm Shadow ♥ (yes, he's a villian, but idk why, I supported the villians in this movie. :D including Baroness)

Even his name has the sexy ring in it. LOL. Anyway, the character is acted by Lee Byung Hun ♥

Lee Byung-hun (Korean: 이병헌, born July 12, 1970) is a South Korean actor. He is most famous for acting in Park Chan-wook's Joint Security Area and Kim Ji-woon's A Bittersweet Life. He recently made his Hollywood debut in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra as Storm Shadow. He was born in Seoul.

- Wikipedia.

He acted as the lead role of IRIS, the Korean drama, as some of you might know him through this. T.O.P from BigBang, acts as the villian in this drama. So it's like a vice-versa. XD

Man, he's like a stunning guy in white suit in the movie. LOL. He's always seen wearing white. Cos his "villian outfit" is a white ninja, anyway. LOL. But I just love how he wields his shuriken when he's wearing his white suit ♥

Too bad I can't put caps here, cos the movie is like "freshly released", so I can't find any from the net. -_-; Geez.

Me and Eun (my beloved sis) were like spazzing like LOL in the cinema. LOL, it's our problem that we fell in love like him. kkthx :D

So yeah, just want to recap, STORM SHADOW IS THE SMEX.

kkthxbye.

* Friday, 21/8/09

We had this Merdeka (Malaysian Independence Day Celebration) thing in school, and I didn't go. LOL. Well, I had this lazy bug which bit me, so I can't help it.

Anyway, I told my bus driver to NOT fetch me (the woman bus driver), and since now, the "woman"'s brother-in-law is taking over the wheel (long story), the "woman" must tell the "brother-in-law" that I'm not coming on that day. Sounds confusing? :/ Sorry.

So anyway, the "brother-in-law" is a very very forgetful old man, so maybe he did forget. And he went to horn our house at 7am, hoping we'll come out with our Baju kurung on that day (traditional clothes that must be worn in our school during Merdeka celebration.) But no, of course, we were still sleeping. My maid, in another hand (I forgotten to tell her), had NO idea as well, and started panicking and told the "brother-in-law" driver that we're not coming, although she wasn't that sure. LOL. Sometimes, simple things can be so mind-jolting. :D

Nothing else to talk about that day, cos the whole day was just onlining and chatting and Facebooking and and and.. spazzing. LOL. Naww.

A week before this..

We had tests. Yup. So far, the easiest paper was BM. But I do hope teacher won't minus marks for a teensy-weensy mistake. (That paper only has a "Rumusan", and two Komsas. NO ESSAY.) And the rest, they were okay. But I can't expect too much. :/

Then on the weekends, we went to Lousiana at Kelana Jaya for dinner. Ordered the wrong thang. LOL. Regretted. Tasteless steak. But I like like like the mudpieee. ♥

Went to Berjaya Times Square on that weekend. Bought a Big Bang mouse pad & poster ♥

Played my friend's Harry Potter CD before giving it off to him.
