fly....
I’m now on top of the monkey island… the highest point on the ship… I’m without a red cape.. but I am ready to fly.. I will fly.. I will fly…. I’d probably die.. well.. actually I’m in my room.. but I still wish I could fly.. if Christopher reeves made us believe that a man can fly..brandon routh just made me wish I could fly… the film was great.. I don’t care what the critic says.. I once again bow to Singer… the most powerful superhero ever created.. and it was magnificently presented by Singer. I like every single bit of it.. the way Supes stops the plane.. stop a bullet with his eye.. puffs away fire.. the way he gaze upon the sun.. the way he flies…watches the earth from atop.. carries a whole continent on his shoulder.. he was god among men.. and Singer knows it. And when his on his knees, it was still a great scene.. luthor being lex luthor.. Kevin spacey was no mistake. Superman returns after 5 years in space… and when he did his first save in the movie, I felt the lost. That was how great Singer did with the movie. I felt like I was reading a masterpiece by alex ross. Where every picture spoke through itself.. there was little dialogue, but every action speaks.even I myself am out of words.. I really am a happy guy today.. being in bintulu I didn’t expect there could be superman returns in the Cineplex… but there was. Though it was no gsc.. there was nothing to complain about. It was worth every damn penny… though not as good as spidey.. but still a masterpiece. i really need to fly...

numb..?
here's something that i wrote about a week ago, on my first night signing on... hahaha..
The sea’s around the corner… sort of.. I’m in port actually, onboard puteri delima… just finish unpacking some of my stuff…. Lots more to go.. probably finish up tomorrow. It was supposed to be 4 months of sea, and 2 months of pure holiday enjoyment. Instead, it was 4 months of sea, and 3 and a half months of pure holiday…. I’m not complaining, but then just now when my counterpart who I am relieving handed over his duties and showed me around the engine room, I realized how everything seems like something new… even the compressor which I strip naked the last time I was onboard seem to look like some scary machine waiting to slowly devour my life in the next 4 months…. I guess everything has its setbacks.. anyway.. it didn’t really bother me much.. yesterday for a few hours of my life I felt a bit lifted.. Al’s gf Diana sent out a simple hello from a friend. It might just be sarcasm, or really just a hello and maybe I’m wayyy getting carried over by this, a bit stupid for that matter.. but still.. it felt .. nice. Hehe, blissful’s a bit like it as well. Maybe in time it wouldn’t be just sarcasm… maybe in time it’ll be a simple hello followed with a small chat, maybe even a trip to the GSC. I don’t know.., maybe I’m just bored… and a bit lifted… hahahahaha..i’m repeating myself now. Blissful..? who am I kidding. I better get some sleep….
shit... and here's one of those things that reminded me why i like one of those mellow rock sound so much...
And if the moon and stars should fall
They'd be easy to replace
I would lift you up to heaven
And you would take their place
…..
And if the sun
Should ever fail to send his light
We will burn a thousand candles
And make everything alright
-warrant, I saw red.
it's like goo goo doll's iris all over again for me.... and that was wayy too long ago... wtf..????!@#!%@#^$%^**!!

sad..sad.. day
i am still awed... my heart in frustration, my brain felt err.stupid? myself uncertain of what to say.. its not about money..nor is it about a girl.(the girl.?haha..-nonsense)its not about boredom.. its hope.. and the sad feeling of disappointment. in 2000, i jumped the gates of the malay college to look for something to watch in j.j's room... then did i came across x-men... shocked..and a bit of ashamed i guess, one of the biggest comic book title being made into a film and i never knew about it.suspicious at first..seeing how x-men does came close to being a potential xrated movie.. or maybe a stupid b grade movie using the name. i bought the cd.(it was a win win situation..-evil smirk..) and as i saw how that star trek guy resembles xavier, watch the cool visor that cyclops wear... as wolverine lash out his claws right in somebody's face, magneto..well just being magneto... it was one of the happiest thing that happened to me. right then i really thanked bryan singer... he actually made it happen. then came x2, and with no shame i'm saying this again.. nightcrawler's intro in x2 is byfar the most satisfying intro that i've watched. i felt like i'm reading the comic book as the 'puff' sound from his teleportation keeps coming out... and with x2, it was stronger character, and a stronger plot.. and i again bow to singer.
6 years after, come x-men3. bryan singer took the job with warner bros. making superman returns.fox didn't like it so they pulled out the contract and hires a new guy... 5 hours ago was one of the biggest disappointment in my life. watching x3, i never did once felt an excitement of watching any of the characters appear on screen.i'd go like wow, juggernaut..woo,thats multiple man(madrox),cool.. its shadowcat..then thats it. there was nothing, i don't even know what the fuck's angel doing in this movie anyway???i guess singer knows what he was doing when he made wolverine cuts his claws through rouge, put nightcrawler in a broken chapel, or made magneto and xavier play chess together.. he was giving character. even when the story's are not as compelling, when the penciller knows what he's doing.. it'll be an incredible issue. as for the movies, the story can stick to whatever it wants as it'll be like an elseworld issue for me, but when its told as bad as what i've just watch...it's plain disappointment.
i don't know..bryan singer is either laughing his hats off... or just plain sad. as for me... i'm still sad. !@^$&^()!!!!!
