I'm back...

Yeshhers, I am back from watching this movie with my sis and cousin Deb. Like all book-to-big-screen adaptations, it doesn't beat the book itself. In fact, I can consider the movie a waste of my $8.00. It's as bad as the Harry Potter adaptations. Perhaps even worse because it lacks the excitement and entertainment factors which the HP movies actually do provide.

I can't stand the way they portrayed the elf Arya. In the book she was stoic and completely rejected Eragon by the sequel; in the movie she seemed to be perpetually flinging herself into his arms.

I'm also not satisfied with the very brief depiction of Murtagh. He appeared towards the end of the movie and then - WHAM - suddenly becomes Eragon's best bud for no reason, and then they tell you he's Morzan's son, and that's that. Absolutely no character development, and Murtagh was my favourite character.

(Oh, well, at least he's good looking enough. He looks like Tom Felton. Kinda.)

(Oh, and I'm back from TAIWAN. Nice place =) I'm not blogging about it yet because I lack the time and inspiration.)

Fish Leong's new album is really good. =) I think the Taiwanese adore her because they were playing it EVERYWHERE I went.

very cute! (but it loads very slowly)






Tsuji Ayano - Kaze ni Naru
Very cute and happy too. It's the original version of the above Fish Leong song, if I'm not wrong (they sound identical.) It's the theme song of NEKO NO ONGAESHI (The Cat Returns), another very cute and fantastic Studio Ghibli film. (Look out for all the thumbs-ups. VERY SPASTIC x3)
