Landslide

I took my love and I took it down

I climbed a mountain and I turned around

And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills

When the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?

Can the child within my heart rise above?

Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?

Can I handle the seasons of my life?

Uh uh... uh uh, uh uh....

Well, I've been afraid of changin'

Cause I've built my life around you

But time makes you bolder

Children get older

And I'm getting older too

Well

Well, I've been afraid of changin'

Cause I've built my life around you

But time makes you bolder

Children get older

And I'm getting older too

Well, I'm getting older too

So take this love and take it down

Yeah, and if you climb a mountain and you turn around

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills

Where the landslide brought me down

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills

Well maybe

Well maybe

Well maybe

The landslide will bring you down

The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games. Never read the novel before but went to see the movie on its opening day (22/3/12).

In short, it's about how a boy and girl from each of the 12 districts gets pick to enter the Hunger Games where they will fight till the death. Basically, it's a game of death between the 12 with only 1 survivor. They will be sent into a forest (digitally controlled i think) where they will fight and try to survive not just against each other, but against natural disasters and wild beasts too. All of these are shown on television for viewers to see.

The beginning of the movie was quite slow and draggy and it moves at this pace throughout the movie. Because of this, the movie can get a little boring at some parts. Then again, that might be due to the fact that I didn't really understand as I have not read the novel. The movie has little comical moments and the action parts aren't that great. What the movie focus on is the great story and the character's emotions. The main character, Katniss Everdeen (played by Jennifer Lawrence) did an amazing job as the lead. Whether it was her blurness, or her strong character, she did execute well. The movie does try to pull you in as it does let you have a feel of hallucination, fireball shooting at you among the things. It was thrilling at certain scenes. However, the ending does fell a bit hanging.

In a way, the movie does try to suck you into the story and the characters' emotions, and this does pull up the rating of the movie. However, having a great story, it could very well be a much better movie.

Pros: Great story, actors, camera viewpoints and effect.

Cons: A bit draggy, hanging ending.

8/10

Disappointed again

Disappointed.

Again.

And again and again.

Safe & Sound

I remember tears streaming down your face

When I said, I'll never let you go

When all those shadows almost killed your light

I remember you said, Don't leave me here alone

But all that's dead and gone and past tonight.

Just close your eyes

The sun is going down

You'll be alright

No one can hurt you now

Come morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound

Don't you dare look out your window

Darling everything's on fire

The war outside our door keeps raging on

Hold on to this lullaby

Even when the music's gone

Gone

Just close your eyes

The sun is going down

You'll be alright

No one can hurt you now

Come morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound

Just close your eyes

You'll be alright

Come morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound

Good people never win

The innocent are being viewed as bad.
The good are pushed behind.
The kind are treated badly.
The humble are treated unfairly.
The loving are being ignored.
The generous are taken for granted.

With all the unfair treatment, being good brings no self satisfaction, much less meaning anymore.

In this unfair world, the good people never win.

Who Is

Oh I was perfect

For the circus

If she dared me, I'd do it

Love makes you stupid

I gave it up

But I guess it was not enough

Cause she never seemed satisfied

I know I'm not perfect

But at the end of the day

Who is?

She wanted someone that's perfect,

Okay.

But can you tell me who is?

She set the bar

Just above the stars

A rocket couldn't reach it

But I still kept on reaching

She watched me try

At least a thousand times

If she loved me she'd stop me, but no

I know I'm not perfect

But at the end of the day

Who is?

She wanted someone that's perfect

Okay.

But can you tell me who is?

I saw something worth my future

So wrong, so wrong.

In my mind I was all it took

But I guess I wasn't wrong

I know I'm not perfect

But at the end of the day

Who is?

She wanted someone that's perfect

Okay.

But can you tell me

Who is?

This Means War

Went to watch This Means War two Sundays ago (26/2/12). Only going to update now due to the busyness and mood-less over assignment, exams, and other stuff.

It is a comedy/romance/action movie that revolves around two best friends who fall in love with the same girl. Both of them agreed for the best man to win but being spies, both of them have their own tactics up their sleeves. As both of them come up with ways to win the girl's heart, the scenes are both funny and entertaining. While the action lack the thrills, the comedy in the movie will be sufficient to make it a fun and enjoyable movie. In addition, both the actors have good chemistry with the actress making the romance worthwhile.
