I just got back from watching Avatar. It was amazing. Avatar is the story of an ex-Marine who finds himself thrust into hostilities on an alien planet filled with exotic life forms. As an Avatar, a human mind in an alien body, he finds himself torn between two worlds, in a desperate fight for his own survival and that of the indigenous people. Avatar has one thing in common like District 9 which involves human and the alien race, but the story is not confusing, well-plotted and I actually get the whole picture of the story without suffering from minor head-floating of dizziness. If anyone feel like they're up for a movie to spend their weekend, I reckon Avatar with 10 little pudgy fingers up. It seems like I couldn't get off the whole pudgy issue out of my mind yet.
By the way I had an adventure of my own, before I could lay eyes on the movie itself. Browsed both TGV and GSC for movie tickets yesterday night and ended up feeling disappointed as all were reserved and even the pay online section was full. Messaged my friend, telling that there might be no chance of us watching the movie, but he said "Why not we just gamble and see if there are tickets?"..."Not all would end up collecting them, trust me"...then he said something funny :
"There would be couples who reserved but then ended up argueing or some shitty thing came up and they're just not in the mood to watch them."
Oh sheesh. He was just so positive about it. So I was like, oh yeah...what the heck. What harm could it do me for trying right? I was like okay. Let's do this. Usually, I would just give up and wait for the movie to run a few days before I actually go and see them. But today it was just different. Probably the Avatar trailer did managed to lure me into watching it after all.
Then around noon, another friend of mine called asking what I was doing and said he's on the way to buy tickets to watch Avatar. Few minutes later he told me that it was all sold out. I told him I did checked it online and it was fully booked and sold. I started to give up hopes and felt like cancelling the movie plan instead.
Cut short the story, we did go to the mall and check out the tickets. Only left 6 reserved tickets. I was like 6?! What makes me think I would be the lucky one to get to buy the reserved tickets? What are the chances of the people of not coming? The show is at 12am, and the guy at the counter said he could only let the reserved tickets go around 11.30pm. It was 10pm that time, so I was like okay I'll just go for dinner first as all I had was coffee and biscuits from morning. Had noodles at Penang Village. I love their Cantonese Hor Fun, that would be my main dish every time I go to Penang Village. But today I was being a dinky-dong and decided to other some seafood noodle and it tastes like crap. Literally. To my amazement, the only seafood thing about the noodle was the 2 piece of shrimp in it, the others were all chicken. Didn't know chicken was considered a seafood. Next time I want to look for chicken that lives in the water when I visit Penang. Dear Safwan from Penang, please clarify this.
After dinner, went back up to the cinema and sheepishly showed our face at the counter. The guy said wait for 10 more mins, we waited. Then we approached the counter he said there is 1 more minute. So to kill the time, we talked about crappy stuff and he wanted something else in return because I was so desperate to watch the movie. He printed out the tickets and pass me a pen and a paper. I actually wrote my number on it.
My friend was like "You actually wrote your real number?". I was like "Yeah, he helped us out, I was just being nice". After all I could block phone calls from my phone, so I don't care much.
While waiting for the turn to get into the cinema hall, someone message me asking me out to watch Avatar tomorrow since its the public holiday. I was like "Sorry in few minutes time I would be watching it..." Then he said, "Okay, I'll just download it then..." and hung up the phone. I really hate it when someone just hang up the phone in an abruptly manner. That is just so rude.
I was all happy when the movie started. Like yeah, finally after what I went through to get the tickets. Well good things come to those who wait. Everything was okay, until 30mins later I received a text message from that someone saying "I was looking forward to watch Avatar with you bla bla bla".."I got friend in Pavilion who could reserved tickets for us bla bla bla"..."But you went off with your own plans..""I am not mad at you, just that many of my plans lately seems gone to drain..." - Well thats like the excerpt of what I remembered, as I deleted them off after I read them.
If you think having friend who could like hook up movie tickets for us would impressed me, you're so wrong. Theres a lot of ways for me to get them without anybody's help. I could even ask my dad to buy off the cinema if I want to
So it did ruined my mood to watch movie for a while, but then thanks to my friend I was up and about to normal. Overall, I enjoyed Avatar. Although throughout the 2 hours 45 minutes movie I was bothered with this aunty and her popcorns beside me. I hate it when people become inconsiderate and talk out loud while watching movie. I am not in the mood to talk about her and explain what she did in this blog. Honestly, I am not in the mood of blogging this neither. That is why this post is so crappy. Starting to feel tired, going to hit the sack now.
Later alligators.
(Started writing this post around 4.21 am and now it is 6.54am, sheesh and all I wrote was crap)
Short notes:
If only Eywa exists, I would have want to read Checimy's heart and understand the whole situation that's been hurting me. I miss you love.
