Opening Day

Superman Returns opened in cinemas nationwide today... AND I DIDN'T GO WATCH IT!!!!! I woke up in a good mood, put on my Superman t-shirt and my new jeans, but in the end i cound't go, because my mom just decided to take a day off and i had to go run errands with her. When I was out, I saw all of the posters and banners of the movie, and it just hurts me to think that the movie is playing everywhere, over, and over again, and I'M NOT THERE WATCHING IT!!!!!!! I can't believe this!! I was obsessing about the movie even before they started shooting it, and now when it's finally out, I couldn't go watch it on it's opeing day!!! This is just so frustrating!!!!

Me Bored

I am so bored, I actually feel like going back to London. Seriously. Maybe Ben was right. Prior to going home, I idealised it too much, that when I actuallly get home, I get disappointed that everything is not what I expected it to be, and the whole idea of being home doesn't seem so great after all. Right now, the only thing that "m looking forward to is "Superman Returns", and it's just a damn movie!! What the hell is wrong with me??!!

I was supposed to do this internship at ExxonMobil, but the whole plan didn't work out. I'm trying to get a job, but I was afraid that when I'm working, I will not have the freedom to just go out anytime I want. Wait... I can't do that now. I'm always stuck at home doing nothing. Most of the time I just can't function. Maybe I should get a job. At least I will be motivated to go out everyday, and I will earn money instead of just spending it.

I just found out that the I-Max format of "Superman Returns" will not be released in Malaysia. I don't even know why. Even the I-Max KL website is not working. So now I just have to settle with the regular format. I really hope this movie is going to be good. With a $260 milllion production budget, it should be good.

Ok I know what you're thinking. I'm so damn obsessed with this damn movie. It's just a damn movie!!! I know!!! But right now, it's the only thing that's keeping me going(sort of). Obsession occupies the mind, so I don't get so bored.

I should get a job.

Superman Returns review


Critics' response has been great so far. So I hope Superman Returns will hit the box-office with a huge opening weekend next week. And with the World Cup out of the way the week after that, its worldwide revenue should also hold up well. Here's one of the many reviews on the internet:

Disturbing Image


This is an image downloaded from a fan site, www.bluetights.net. Why is it here? I'll tell you why. I find it disturbing!! Look at it. Superman is being hugged by his earth mother, Martha Kent. His mother. And take a look at where his left hand is. On his CROTCH!!!

EEEEEWWWW!!!
This is the problem with Hollywood. They are disgusting sometimes. I remember watching Cheaper By the Dozen, and during the closing credits, there's this blooper scene, where Tom Welling swept Bonnie Hunt (the actress who plays his MOM in the movie) off her feet and KISSED her!!!
EEEWWWWW!!!!
I'm still looking forward to watching Superman Returns on Thursday. Just not this particular scene.

The Chronicles of Bloomsbury celebrates the return of SUPERMAN!!

I can't wait to see this movie. I should be good. Early reviews were great, and judging by Bryan Singer's great work in the first two X-Men movies (which was later ruined by Brett Ratner), I think Superman Returns is going to be awesome. And I just found out that the movie is also being released in the I-MAX format. I think I should try that out. Another thing I anticipate about this movie, is James Marsden's yet another role as "the other guy". He's played this kind of role in The Notebook, and all three X-Men movies. In The Notebook, he plays the man who was engaged to Rachel McAdams' character while she was still in love with Ryan Gosling's character. In the X-Men movies, he plays Cyclops who dates Jean Grey, who has the hots on Wolverine. And next week, we will see him as the man who is engaged to Lois Lane, and she is obviously still in love with the man in tights. I think they also have a child together. Oh and I just remembered. He was also in Ally McBeal, playing a young lawyer who was in love with Ally, while Ally was still lusting over Billy, who was married to Georgia. Wow. James Marsden is apparently really good at playing men who are in love with women who are in love with some other men. I think years from now, we're gonna see a biopic about him, and the movie would be called...
Yup! You guessed it!

"The Other Guy"
It's gonna be awesome!
Oh and did you know that James Marsden was also one of the guys they auditioned for the role of Superman, but apparently, he can't play Superman because he already is Cyclops, and a double-superhero won't be good for his career (Yes, Halle Berry shouldn't have played Catwoman. She's Storm!!). And now he's playing the other guy, a role he's brilliant at.
The casting directors of "Superman Returns" really did their homework!

britney interview

ever wondered if the the stories you read on the tabloids are true? well... somtimes they are. i just watched britney's interview with matt lauer of nbc on youtube. in that interview it is kinda obvious that britney did some homework. she explained the tabloid's allegations by mentioning past and present stories by other celebrities. so i'm not sure. a lot of people think that the interview is just a distraction for everyone as she prepares for her divorce, and i think it's probably true.

Sorry

Dear Marriam,

I am sorry that I'm using the same template you are using. I just can't figure out why my previous templates weren't working. I will try to fix it as soon as possible.

It was a very sunny day, so I decided to go up Primrose Hill (Yes, Jude Law lives there. No, I didn't see him. Yes, I am aware that you do not care). Click on this photo to view more.
