Today we watched - Alice in Wonderland

Started the day early when boss texted me I need to send the plans for a meeting. At least that text message woke me up so I have to get my body up early to do everything since we need to be at Ayala before 1:55pm or else our reservation from sureseats will be cancelled. Gone to the office to get the files then bought lunch for me and Josefi (Joei's screen name) hehe Then came home and washed my clothes, gave Joei his lunch and had mine too. While getting ready waiting for Jufang, had to change clothes and check updates on facebook. 

We didn't stay long there, 45 minutes of waiting before the show then few rounds at the mall to look for a gift. We bought dinner and then came home, so many things to do actually. I'm beginning to think that I must not waste every minute and now I must be off working on the details for the CRITH project. But before doing that, I would love to share my thoughts on the movie "Alice in Wonderland".

It's actually a very nice movie but it isn't that long to watch. Alice is played by Mia Wasikowska, when she turned 19 years old she returns to Wonderland after following the white rabbit into the woods and she fell into a hole on the trunk of a tree. She then met Tweedledee and Tweedledum (the twins), Dormouse, Blue Caterpillar, where all of them take a look at the scroll that tells about their future. They were searching for the right Alice that was sketched on the scroll, because that Alice would be the one to save all of them. Then she met the Mad Hatter played by the very great Johnny Depp, he's really good with this kind of roles. :D Right after that she also met Stayne, Red Queen with Big Head (a cutie!) and the White Queen. The sketch on the scroll came true so you can already imagine what happened. By the way before she went to follow white rabbit, the son of the lord proposed to her in front of many people but when she got back after fighting with Jabberwocky she declined the proposal but instead of becoming the daughter-in-law of the lord, she became an apprentice to his business. 

 We didn't watch the 3D version so I really don't know the difference.. Also I so love the Red Queen's attitude! hehe I'm not mean, but I really love the character compared to the White Queen - she's just plain nice.. The other one is also the cat! Color combination looks good compared to the cartoon version.. 

 
Meet the Red Queen!


See the color of the cat here, really nice... :D
I also love the green eyes of the Mad Hatter! hehe

I'm quite satisfied with the movie, no wonder I've been ranting about watching the movie.. hehe ^^,

Today we watched - Sherlock Holmes Movie

I wasn't expecting to watch a movie today, but then decided to since it was still early.. :) Last night, my brother was already talking to me about this movie and since I find Sherlock Holmes interesting, I chose to watch this with Jufang. We have to wait 30 minutes in line to buy our tickets, imagine that, I should already fix my sureseats account to avoid such. To top it off, when we bought our tickets all premier seats were already full. Hmm, the movie industry still is going strong. thumbs up to that! :) Plus with the trailers of the upcoming movies, it made me wanted to watch movies in the cinema every week.. hehe

List of upcoming movies:
1. Prince of Persia
2. Valentine's Day - must watch! casting is really great..
3. Clash of the titans
4. Twilight Saga: Eclipse
5. Your Spy Next Door
6. Alice in Wonderland
7. Robin Hood
8. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
9. Step Up 3d
10. Iron Man 2

& Many more..

Okay, now to the movie.. I love the story and the cast, Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law made a great team in the movie. The story rotates around science and magic, since Lord Blackwood played by Mark Strong make some believed that he has magic but turned out he uses science to trick them. Rachel Adams played the love interest of Sherlock Holmes, Irene Adler, came to him to ask for help on a case but without Holmes' knowledge (found out at the ending) she was hired to play on Holmes' emotions and then possibly to get hold on to Lord Blackwood's item on the machine he invented. It was Professor Moriarty who made a deal with Irene Adler and with him shown anonymously I bet there will be a sequel to this movie. As you can imagine like in the novels, the setting is in London maybe early 17th century since they have just constructed the London Bridge. It's also a good watch for Downey's fans, he showed his abs during a fight scene.. ^^ I'm sure the rating for this movie will go up high, kudos to the production team because the movie is really great and I love the editing! :)

Sorry don't have pics for today.. But I love my Super Lipton Red Tea from Taters, the best!

Bonne Fete to Meling,turned another year older.. :D
