excellent movie. I thought iron man was the best superhero movie this year, dark knight tops it by a mile. it tops batman begins by whole lightyears. yes heath ledger was good in it. maggie gyllenhal was... awkwardly ugly with long hair. as much as I love her acting ability, honestly her role didnt require much and I would have appreciated better eye candy and a lot more believable love interest. when they start calling her an outstandingly beautiul woman im like waaaaat? not really.
heath ledger was good. not exactly worth the oscar hype but definitely comparable to jack sparrow in potc1 in the way he immersed himself and made the character his own. he really embodied anarchy in his role as the joker. he will be dearly missed. and I admit it, i was wrong to have doubted his casting a couple of years back. he probably did a better job than mark hamil (who i initially thought should have gotten the role) ever will.
i especially loved his dissapearing pencil trick.
the whole harvey dent thing was slightly unbelievable as the show wore on. I wont reveal any spoilers but lets say that the progression is believable up till one point when his character just suddenly does something unexpected with no link. everything up to that point was pretty well done by aaron eckhart who of course totally owns in thank you for smoking.
dark knight was so good, batman 3 will probably suck... sadly enough.
aaaaand anyway with that, all the good movies i've wanted to watch this year are over... well maybe except for wall.e.
next year is the year of the WATCHMEN
YEAH! considering its done by the same guy who did 300... itll probably be an accurate following of the excellentabsolutebest comic of all time, since 300 the movie was an exact carbon copy of the comic. the only thing about the trailer whcih i hated was i thought that there was too much posing. watchmen was about real believable characters. they shouldnt be striking poses. especially not rorshach. why is he slowly sweeping the make-shift flamethrower across like that? he should use it fast hard and brutal. also miss jupiter's outfit looked surprisingly sexy. in the initial release posters they looked corny and were a sharp deviation from the comic.

ops vee el is over for me. I wont have to hunt for a limping terrorist who is now in indonesia anyway.
anyway back to camp... got guitar hero for my ds, which is absolutely rocking. also one of my bunkmates, nick, has brought along a dvd of a british comedy called black books.
these are the best episodes so far imo.
the lead up to the "i have returned" is just fantastic
eh i've been in a rather bad mood lately. let's just say that i've been cheated of a large sum of money due to my own greed, foolishness, gullibility and impatience. the guy who cheated me was a lying bastard who deserves to burn in hell as well but... nvm that. bottomline is i'm not going to sim lim ever again.
so these past few days i've been trying my best to move on from this incident but it just keeps coming back to haunt me. you know how it is when u try to let go and move on but it just keeps coming back to haunt you? I know it's a very trivial thing. It's just money after all. but... it's hard to let go when u keep thinking "what if i'd been more careful" etc.
rrrggh enough of this emo crap. i apologise to anyone if it seems i've been rather emo or hostile or withdrawn lately. I'm just in a bad mood....

Why is there a picture of some boats here? It's because I'm too lazy to link another picture. First I'd have to find a pic which is the right size,
then I have to upload it. Then I have to hope the pic stays there and doesn't get deleted from the image hosting website. Bah leave it as a boat. I'm too lazy to change it.
