hmm.. wats with the movie makers these days. i've watched like 3 movies over the past 2 weeks and all of them sucked. the worst part is 2 of them were pretty big movies. *sigh* well, the 1st one was punisher, (stop rolling ur eyes) the only reason why i watched it cos i got a pair of free tickets. incidently, the malay translation for "the punisher" was "PENYEKSA"! omigawd, wats up with that?! hehe.. for the benefit of non-bm speaking ppl, "penyeksa" is actually "the torturer" in english. however, after giving it some thought, i dont believe there is a bm word for punisher besides "tukang denda" which sounds just plain stupid. hehe.

okay, next movie was Harry Potter and the Prizoner of Azkaban. Lemme tell u i was so looking forward to this movie (as i've become some sorta potter fan off late). but when i watched it, boy was i dissapointed. i can pretty much guarantee u that a person who did not read the book will have problem following the story as they rushed thru the entire story without bothering to place emphasis on the important parts. the weirdest thing is that i always pictured dementors to be these BIG and imposing creatures who glides around but in the movie they were like shrunken ppl in tattered robes and could fly.. hehe. i just hope that they change the director for the next one ..

finally i watched The Chronicles of Riddick (i didnt have to pay for this one either). Full marks for effects but negative 1 million for story line. i just couldnt find a reason to tell a story like that.. it just didnt make sense. Okay, so i just found out that this show was actually a sequel to another movie called Pitch Black. So for the benefit of the makers of the show i sure hope that by watching the prequel, everything'd make sense - but i definitely do not think so.

anyway, all thats left to hope for this "summer" is spiderman 2. lets hope that its every bit as good as the 1st one. if that fails, i guess i will patiently wait for X3 (x-men 3).
