..and the Spirit went away~~

if i were the city i would scream too

Last night the whole gang watched Spirit in the spirit of Chrismas LOL.
we were all hyped up to watch it (well not really we wanted to watch bedtime story but it was full and t he next show was at 1.15 am).
My sis and i went and bought the tix while my other half waited at Dome with our other sisters.
So at the ticket counter we bought the ticket the only available seats left was 5 rows from the screen. Both of us was abit skeptic about the distance but the guys at the counter said "no.. it's okay usually if i go and watch movie i will sit at the from these seat will not hurt your neck" (at the end of the show we learnt that he lied LOL)

So my sis and i were contemplating where will miss F be seated. in the end she sat
between my sis and the other sis. pity them...

(half of the spirit went away when F comes along)

at the movie... the movie starts the 1st half and hour was good
"she's my lover, she's all that i have, she's my life, and i am her spirit, and she is the love of my life..."
basically the whole 1 and a half hour was about that. seriously. if you think Sin City was bad... beware! things could get nastier with Spirit, at least u can see half naked ladies in Sin city but not in Spirit.

The story is actually about obsession...

- The Spirit's obsession with Ladies (yes he sees his city as a lady...gross isn't it?)and the Octopus (no don't get confuse with Dr. Octopus from Spiderman. in fact this octopus doesn't have 8 hands or tentacles for that matter and now i am confused)

- Sand Seref's obsession with bling-blings (she started off liking diamond and finally she wanted to get the Golden Fleece)

- Octopus's obsession with (no... not with black ink or tentacles) being immortal being a god or the next best thing (according to Silken Floss) and wanting hereceles' blood.

- Silken Floss obsession with her look ( i mean she can spot different looks and still look mighty fine)

- Lorelei Rox's obsession with The spirit (well along with most of the ladies - and occasionally guys - in Central City USA) and she's a god of death and also water spirit... nuff said

so basically it's about obsession i guess the movie should be named obsession so it will not cause any confusion to the audience.

and hence, the other half of the spirit went away after the movie and it makes me having monologues in m head like The Spirit does. Crap!

i would give it 2 1/2 stars mainly because i had some comedy elements in it and at least it does not make me go to sleep... bravo!

but then again we do need some obsession once in a while in our life right? so that we can actually move forward...

another lesson learn in 2008
