Shrek 4

Shrek 4 is probably the last thing I expected to be entertaining this year, or at least the last thing I expected to be fun that I'd actually watch. I mean, when Shrek 2 was barely acceptable and Shrek the third was simply awful, I thought Shrek 4 would just be there only for the 3D effects and some lame jokes. Well..  I guess I was very wrong. Although I think it still is no where near as good as the first movie, it did somewhat made par with the second movie, if not surpassing it. Well.. it's been quite a while since I watched it. I really don't know how much I can comment on it. But, at least I think it's a movie that won't waste your money and time.

... Of course, this whole Shrek 4 is a good movie idea may well be an side effect of seeing fat puss...

On the other hand, Prince of Persia seem to be pretty good reviews from various sources (ugh... tho most of my sources are questionable), maybe I should find some time and money to watch it. Time isn't too much of an issue right now, but money... Ugh, I need financial aid.

鋼鐵人 II

我第一次聽說鋼鐵人要拍成電影的時候，我是抱著相當懷疑的態度的。沒想到鋼鐵人第一集還蠻好看的。沒有什麼很深的理念，就很單純的一部展示科技的商業片。而鋼鐵人2 似乎也是走著同樣的路線。
這部電影的節奏、劇情都還算拿捏得不錯，笑點也蠻多的，花了280去看也不會覺得有什麼不值得的地方，反正就是一部放鬆了去看看特效的影片。不過，看完了之後，我室友和我的感想差不多，都是覺得這部電影其實也沒有什麼主題可言。在那些還算精彩的戰鬥特效背後，感覺不出這部片想要表達的東西。如果是對劇情啦、電影中心的思想這些比較重視的話，我想就不需要特別去看這部片了(這個應該從第一部就很明顯了)。
不過，一部商業片基本該有的東西他似乎也都有了，華麗的特效、性感的正妹、緊湊的打鬥畫面、邪惡的反派人物、和一些明顯的丑角人物之類的，應有盡有，不排斥看商業片的人應該會覺得這電影還算是好看吧。

感想1: Samual Jackson 也太喜歡去客串演出了吧...
感想2: Scarlett Johansson 也太辣了吧
感想3: Lisa 你不要對感想2太在意啦 :p

KICK-ASS

oops... sorry for all caps...
This past sunday I went to Taipei. Went to chill with a friend and watched a movie.
Kick-Ass, is the title of the movie. Apparently it had been on theaters for over a week now, though I haven't been paying attention to movies lately. So, when my friend linked me the trailer of the movie, I decided that I'll actually go watch it in theaters.
Well, the trailer was interesting, and reading movie reviews before I actually see the movie is not something i do. So, I was actually quite surprised at the quality of this movie. It's... well not perfect, there are will some details and some cut scenes that deserve a little more improvement. But, overall, I think it's one of the best movies I've seen recently. The pace of the movie is pretty tight, leaving perhaps only minutes of the movie without some sort of action or purpose. The humor in the movie is pretty well delivered. To that, I have to say the the antagonist big boss of the movie is well portrayed. And the amount of parody in this film is quite worth noting. So yeah... to those of you who haven't seen it, go watch it asap!!

But be warned... There are some vivid display of blood and violence... and yes.. Hit-Girl is only twelve. I guess child labor laws do not apply to superhero works.

李宗盛的演唱會

話說.. 星光大道如今已經到了第六屆了，對它的興趣也從第一屆時期每個禮拜去看，到如今對它的發展其實已一無所知。直到我室友跟我說：踢館賽開始了。雖然我對這次星光六的選手們都沒啥感覺，甚至一直很納悶的覺得；難道就沒有更好的人選了嗎? 但是這次來踢館的選手們卻都有不錯的實力。然後咧，就看著踢館魔王們痛宰了星光六好幾個禮拜。
不過這都不是這篇想講的東西 =.= 不知不覺的就扯遠了。
這禮拜的星光，如同過去幾次一樣，星光六的選手還是一一的被送上了失敗區。但是，這次讓我感到興趣的歌，卻是張士堂表演的鏗鏘玫瑰。說實話，我覺得他唱的很路人、很普通，但是這首歌個歌詞旋律卻讓我馬上在youtube上找尋其他的歌唱者。然後，就找到了這個...



這... 我真的很難去形容我看完之後的感受。鏗鏘玫瑰原本是林憶蓮的歌曲，由林憶蓮自己作曲，而李宗盛幫她寫詞。分別聽完林憶蓮和李宗盛演唱的版本之後，我覺得李宗盛這個現場演唱的版本比較能打動我。剛好呢，有人把這整個演唱會演出的內容都放上了youtube。結果，我不自覺得就一口氣把它們看完了。雖然我很少再看演唱會，平常聽音樂也比較喜歡聽錄音室處理過的，並不太喜歡現場表演那種，有點觀眾的雜音，有點歌聲的瑕疵的感覺。但是李宗盛的這個演唱會真的改變了我對演唱會的觀點。他的現場演唱，可以讓觀眾在他唱歌的時候靜下來凝神去聆聽，可以讓我感覺得出他對那些歌曲，那些唱腔技巧的掌握。而且，更是表現出了那種在錄音室錄音環境下感受不出的那種，跟歌曲演奏之間的互動。

oh well... 大概是最近看到的演唱會都是友人帶來分享的那些日系華麗風格的歌手辦的東西吧。像是濱崎步、倖田來未啦，那種多半是在看他們呈現的視覺效果的東西。突然看到這樣一場純粹以呈現音樂為主的演唱，真的讓我印象很深刻。

新網誌

呃...
簡單的慶祝一下新網誌成立
大概有四五年沒有寫過網誌了吧。以前的網誌還是在朋友的慫恿下成立的，也沒有想過要寫些什麼樣的東西。這次難得會想要自己開始寫網誌，也算是值得紀念的事情吧。
不過，我想這網誌應該是會很低調的，成立這網誌主要的目的也只是想有個舒心的空間。主要大概是寫一些平常看到聽到的事物，還有自己的一些想法吧。沒有特定的觀眾、目的，也大概不會特別的去點綴、美化文字，就真的只是把一寫我覺得可以分享的東西放在網路上。
話說會來，反正也沒有特別要把這網誌經營得怎樣，這篇開張宣言也不會有多少人看到，就還是一切從簡吧。
