never gone all megatron in a cinema?

i worship the god called optimus prime. if you're one of the countless persons to have come out hating "transformers", face it, you seriously need to get your head checked by a jackhammer. am i imposing my likes and dislikes on you? i could and i am doing it right now. this is my blog and i am doing my best frank welker-megatron laugh....

this is actually a bug that's been bothering me for a long time. people who walk into cinemas and saying, amongst other things, that there is no story or lack of one, that its not realistic and the list goes on. not just for this movie but every other movie in the sci-fi or action movie genre.

1stly as a reference, "transformers" was directed by michael bay. that says it all. he doesn't understand acting but he sure knows how to blow things up. but how can anybody complain it's not real enough, when it's about insane robots tearing each other up like no 2moro? i know it's all CG, but the key was a sense of realism and depth.

and die hard was real? seriously. die hard was about one sorry ass white male blowing things up that looks cool when blown up. do you see me whining like a faggot-pseudo reviewer saying "its not real-lah"? i liked the latest 4.0 and if one took the time to read the article "farewell to arms" by john carlin, there may even be some appreciation for the movie. fact is, i'm asian and i like watching white grudgy males blow shit up. nothing makes me feel more asian than watching sly, arnold, brucie, dolph, van damme stir things up. nothing gives me closure to my lil wins than rounding it off with a quiet "yippiekiyay..."
what really winds my up tremendously, are such "its not real-lah" allegations being levelled against the james bond series.

is it possible that after 21 instalments, people still live under "tempurungs" and not know that JB is premised on ridiculous stunts? and that nobody gets laid that easily without contracting crabs and being an utter knob. (pause)... oh, a flood of names come trashing thru and thus, i stand corrected. =)

so next time, if anyone watches a movie and decides to get smart with an "unquotable quote" like, "it's not real-lah", think twice before you do it, because it is as annoying fatty as the "i taiko mah" ah beng in the DiGi ads... and the fatty finally gets his comeuppence in the new line of DiGi ads. some clap and sound of their approval, but a huge majority are silent about it. i wonder why.

speaking of get smart, "get smart" is hitting the big screens soon, with steve carrell... how about that. with his talking shoe, etc... you know the caveat. don't say much abt that and walk away... until next time... kill the lights and pray you don't see daylight.....
