When it Rains, it bleeds

Sunday is not my favorite day of the week. The long-winded quiet afternoons are so. . . . quiet. *laughs* I was watching House earlier then I fell asleep. And consequently, I woke up with a headache due to oversleep. When I finally found the energy to get up, I’m here typing me blather. I should be at church but I couldn’t go. My leg hurts from yesterday. I did 100 in jump roping. Gawrsh, me is so weak. Hahaha. At least I didn’t feel faint afterwards like last year.

Yesterday, Kristell and our Hannas watched Ninja Assassin. Now, Rain’s physique was flawless. Everyone in the movie house was oohhing and ahhing at the site of his strapping body. His English pronunciation had gotten better too. But the plot was -I'm sorry- an absolute bore. Very predictable. There was too much gore and the characters lack depth. At some point, you’d get tired of all the fight scenes. Though, I must admit, they were cool. However, it was too much that it wasn’t entertaining anymore. I was dragging my feet to the end, so to speak. At one fight scene, my sister whispered to me “Hey, they’re both ninjas and, I tell you, they wouldn’t even hear the girl come in the room and shoot the gun, wanna bet?” And sure enough, the girl comes in and fires a gun without Rain’s character or the villain noticing –when, supposedly, they are the best ninjas in the clan. Even I can predict what’s coming. Well, it no fault of Rain that the plot was a failure. He was amazing in the fight scenes. They didn’t give him enough chance for acting though. They should’ve. Well, somehow, it did seem like they tried to give depth to Raizo (Rain's character) –but you couldn’t quite see the character in all that blood. Now I understand the reason behind the movie’s poster. It's a direct and literal representation of movie. The film is about 2 hours of this.


And how come the ninjas resemble the dementors in Harry Potter!?! They come out of the shadows and close in on their victims as they whisper things like betrayal, father, and things I couldn’t quite catch what. It was creepy. After seeing the film, I don’t know where to classify it anymore. Is it action, drama, fantasy, or horror? All of the above? :S At the end, my sister and I made sure we see the name of the director and the scriptwriter in the credits so we can steer clear of their future works.

The best part –okay, aside from seeing Rain’s stunning physique – is seeing the trailers of Alice in Wonderland and Holmes. Johnny Depp and Robert Downey Jr. are love. *laughs* After seeing the 2 trailers, my sister and I were kinda hoping we’d see Bin Bons’ “Dorian Gray” as well. That was too much to ask, I guess, hehe. But I’m not sure if that would even be shown here. I’m hoping it will be.

Okay, now, how about we talk about who to best play as "L" in Hollywood's version of Death Note (there's been rumors that they plan to do a remake, but no confirmations yet -I think). Forget "Light". *snickers* That is so taken by Zac Efron. 90% likely he will be picked for the role anyway. He says he loves Death Note. He obviously wants the part. And he wants us to think he does. And I think I've just been brainwashed into thinking he's the man for the role. See.


Okay, going back. I got a little distracted there.

So, who will be L?
