I LOVE THE HARRY POTTER SERIES! So it's no surprise, that I bought the Premier tickets 3 days before the premier. Me and my cousins have been going on and on about it and we were so excited. On the 16th July 2009, we went to One Utama (muggles' shopping mall) TGV (muggles' cinema) to watch HP6. Before we apparated to O.U., me and Nadia decided we should get ourselves wands that were imported from Ollivander.

Mine is made out of Willow and Phoenix tail feather and Nadia's is made out of Vine Wood and Unicorn hair. Aren't they pretty?

When we apparated to O.U., none of us vomited, even though it was our first time (we're as tough as Harry!).

Nadia the Death Eater! Aurors! Get her!



Best part about magic? With the flick of your wand, food just magically appears!

Stupefy!

Stupefy me again and I shall use the Cruciatus Curse on you!

Move and I will use the Sectumsempra spell on you!

A war has taken place in O.U.! Watch out muggles!

No it wasn't a coincidence, I purposely dressed like Hermione Granger. Isn't that cool?!

Nadia wishes this was Harry instead...

One family portrait. (P/S: If you don't see us moving in the picture, this means you're just an ordinary being, there isn't a single trace of magic in you.)


Now, let's save this precious piece of memory in the Pensieve.

Review:
The movie was not that good. There was more focus on love triangles, snogging and relationships. I didn't cry when Albus Dumbledore died, that scene from the movie just didn't come across as powerful as from the book. A lot of scenes, characters and details were omitted. Any HP fan will be disappointed. I hope that the last episode will be better. It should be the best episode among all, it should end with a big Bang!

Till we me meet again...

I didn't have the urge to watch a horror movie in a long time. But somehow when I saw the trailer for Drag Me to Hell and knew Justin Long was starring in this movie, I was dying to watch it. So I checked Twitter and saw what others have to say and most people mentioned it was scary. Subsequently, I went to watch this movie with the aim to be scared till I jump out of my seat, scream and be afraid to sleep alone for the next few nights. I got more than what I bargained for.

The truth is Drag Me to Hell is not a typical horror film, it is a many times funny and startling horror movie. I should have checked Rotten Tomatoes reviews before watching this movie (darn twitterers).

When the movie just begun, there were already many signs. The typical old fashioned typography for the title of the movie, the overused lurking creepy hand shadows, and the corny lines. There were wrestling, pointless events, dancing, cool visual effects, obviously fake visual effects, romance, somethings that doesn't make sense, startling scenes, scary music, more corny lines and cast shadows, buzzing hell-flies, eyeball, goo, maggots, and last but not least a talking goat.

Throughout the movie, I laughed and I screamed. Drag Me to Hell is in a totally new genre, which I like to call Corror/Homedy/Horredy, a mixture of Horror and Comedy. If this was what Sam Raimi intended to do, then he definitely did an excellent job.

On a personal note, if the cursed object is not the necklace. Your poster shouldn't show that the hell-hand is pulling the girl by the necklace.

After dinner at Coconut Flower last saturday, my cousins from my father's side called me up and 'uninvited' me to watch the movie called The Uninvited.


Yes, it is the horror movie starring Emily Browning. You can read the full synopsis here.

At first I said NO because I really hate horror movies. I love watching gory, bloody and violent thrillers, but definitely not movies that's got to do with ghost. As I hung up the phone, a gush of guilt rushed over me and with my mom's and dan's constatn encouragement for me to go and hang out with my cousins. I soon found myself dialing my cousin's number, saying 'I'll go for it'. We met up at TGV Sunway Pyramid for the 9.30pm show.


My wacky cousins - Sha Sha, Syikin, Dik Nor and Nadia.

The movie was OK, not the scariest of all the horror movies, just a few spooks here and there. The way the movie was plotted reminded me of one of my use-to-be favourite Horror Movies (those were the days when I was brave) - A Tale of the Two Sisters.


The highlight of this movie was Arielle Kebbel, she starred as Alex (Anna/Emily Browning's sister). She spent most of her on screen time in a bikini and babydoll dresses. So so hot, leaving us so so envious.


What really freaked me out was my cousins! They were scarier than the movie! They tried to frighten me and they succeded a few times. We spent most of the time giggling at each other or during the after-spooks. After the movie, we went to McDonald's for supper. We talked and laughed a lot. Nothing beats spending the evening with my beloved wacky cousins. Here are some of the pictures of us doing what we do best - cam whoring.




Can't wait till we do this again, next time I get to choose the movie!

A special thanks to Dan for not holding a grudge for me because I always abondaned him and go seek my own agenda.
