Stuff of The Month : January 2010

Salam


The idea for this post popped up in my head when i was doing my routine catalog delivery this evening. Nothing much, just feel like sharing some of the stuff i listen, watch, read etc etc and i'm going to do this on monthly basis. It could be anything and doesn't necessarily have to be newly released, if you talking about songs and movies. They are just some of the things, if not all, that i enjoy the most during that particular month.

Movies of the Month
1. Avatar

Everybody knows about this movie, with record-breaking box office almost 1.9 billion in total. It knocked out Titanic (also directed by James Cameron) from it's throne, where Titanic held the record for 12 years. Some say this movie is overrated and the more expensive 3D tickets is the reason for the high gross, but it's still a great movie nevertheless. The CGI is just mind-blowing, especially The Floating Hallelujah Mountain.

2. Couples Retreat

Synopsis here

I don't know why the critics at RT gave this movie such a low rating (12%), because i certainly enjoyed it. It's just..hilarious! For a normal romantic-comedy like this, there's no need for serious analysis like that. Set no expectations, and enjoy~.


3. 500 Days of Summer

Synopsis here


"This is a story that most people can probably relate to, unless you are one of those lucky people never to have been on the losing end of the game of love" (Robert 2009)


4. Sherlock Holmes

Synopsis here


Watched this at Wallis Drive-in Cinema, Gepps Cross. Surely going to watch this again, in Blu-Ray no less.


Events of the Month
1. The Great Ocean Road & Mt Gambier Road Trip

This trip was on early January, planned exclusively for Zubair aka Asi's bf (aku dah promote korang ni, bayar r!). GOR never disappoints me with it's stunning view. Surely i won't mind going there again.


2. Melbourne Food Hunting & Big Day Out Festival


The full post can be read here, though it doesn't have any BDO pictures since i didn't bring my camera during the festival (Din's actually..i need a camera real bad!). Saw Muse, Kasabian, Powderfinger etc etc live there. Oh, Lily Allen was awesome too. I still remember she kicked a cameraman on the stage while performing. Bad girl as ever lol

These are what i have in my mind for the time being. Maybe i'll think of some other categories for the next posts.


Sekian..
