january movies & games (2009) continuation

rye & myself watched the underworld prequel, rise of the lycans. we didn't expect it to be that good. i still vividly recall the sequence from one of the original underwold chapters where the lycans leader lucian recollected the day the vampire king viktor condemned to death by sun his own beloved daughter sonja, lucian's secret lover.

the movie outlined the lycans struggle for freedom from the vampires who enslaved them, eventually triumphant, hence the title, rise of the lycans.

this prequel made me restlessly looking for the 2 underwold movies, which i couldn't find at home up to now. sigh...

i forgot to mention that one of my favorite video games is guitar hero. i had a taste of guitar hero's world tour version last new years on my next-door cousin's xbox, recently accessorised w/ a headset microphone & guitar. since what we have at home is a ps3, we're eyeing on getting the whole set for the ps3 console for ourselves & the kids this year.

the whole package...wow!

january movies & games (2009)

i've been taking notes of every movie i've seen & every game i've started & finished.

to wrap up, this month, i have seen the following on dvd or the cinemas.

on dvd:

both comedies. only for adult viewers as they both have crude & sexual content all throughout, not to mention the vulgar language & nudity. on 'zack & miri..', be prepared to see private parts on several scenes hehe.

the hitcher: suspense/thriller. the lead actor gets sliced in half near the end of the movie eewww;

slumdog millionaire: award winning? nothing phenomenal. i did anticipate the indian group dance at the ending credits...interesting...

at the cinemas:

benjamin button: movie was lengthy but not boring;
