Review: Avatar (3D)
Oh. My. God.
12 years in the making, and (depending on which reports you read) USD230mil - 500mil later, I think it's worth every penny and every day. The amount of technology Cameron co-designed for the film - the 3D cameras, the motion-capture tools, the virtual production pipeline... this movie has done a helluva lot to contribute to the development of 3D *anything*.
The effects are AMAZING, and more than compensate for the ecological messages and cheesy script. Some of the animals on Pandora came straight out from some acid dream. Really imaginative!
I have no words to describe how much I loved the movie, especially in 3D. Go watch it! Multiple times even.

Review: The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus
Ummmmm.... I didn't get it.
It was visually pleasing, but yeah. I didn't get it.

BaZinga!
Lisa introduced me to The Big Bang Theory. I LOVE LOVE LOVE!! :D
I can't believe I hadn't noticed it before! I allowed 3 whole seasons to pass without notice. How?????? Now I am all over-enthused and giggly over it.
It is smart and geeky and ENTIRELY Hilarious and *SO* me! Not that I'm smart or geeky or hilarious... but you already knew what I meant, right?! *grin*
Jim Parsons as Sheldon is PRICELESS. There are no words to describe how much I adore him. I know John Galecki as Leonard is supposed to be the main character, but it is Sheldon who's all perfect and brilliant and awkward and evil and Spock-like and OCD and I can so see how he is the human C3PO, and I think I'm in love.
They cast Christine Baranski as Lenord's mother. I LOVE Christine Branski and she was PERFECT! *laugh* Yes, I am gushing. This whole damn series was written for Me. Just ME!
The clip below is from the episode where Penny told Sheldon that she bought them xmas gifts. Not knowing what to give to her in return, Sheldon bought a whole bunch of gift baskets from Bed, Bath and Beyond. He plans to open her present, assess the value, and excuse himself to select an appropriate present from the bunch, returning the rest later. However, she presents him with a conundrum. J'ADORE that episode.

Pausing for Gluttony
Jyn got a couple of free nights stay in one of the Hydro Hotel, Penang.
I had dinner on Friday night, so Lisa, Jyn & I left KL at about 7am on Sat morning. Without Starbucks. GROAN.

Review: The Twilight Saga: New Moon
Lord have mercy.. this series made me feel like a pedophile.
Granted, it's the characters that I'm enamoured with, and Edward is technically 109 years old... but Still!
Jacob's 6-pack alone is worth the price of the ticket.
Someone please tell me he's legal.
Also, there are 4 or 5 others like him.
Yummy.
I certainly want to see more of Sam!
Whoever did Edward's lipstick, take away her makeup brushes. She needs to leave the industry.
However, Edward half naked, is Edward half naked.
THANK YOU.
REALLY.
Bella is irritating, but I've said before that the screen Bella isn't half as endearing as the book Bella, and the book Bella is a whiny brat to begin with.
No, I did NOT like book 2, so I didn't expect to like movie 2.
I wouldn't pay to watch it again, but am a big enough fan of the series to buy the DVD.
And Jacob's abs help. *grin*
