Can I Get Some Popcorn Here?!?



Today's topic: MOVIES. Was watching the Extended DVD version of ROTK, the movie that completes the epic trilogy of LOTR. Some of the clips that didn't make it to the big screen definitely helped make the story more complete but some were rightly left out. They just dragged the movie longer (as if the movie wasn't long enough!). I guess Titanic (1997) set the precedence for long movies during the modern era. It was rumoured the movie was suppose to run about 5.25 hours! Fortunately, the editors were sensible enough to cut it down to ONLY 3.5 hours! The package includes Appendices for the movie and I liked the Atlas feature the most as it guides you through the journey of the various characters. For those whom have yet to watch the extended version, I do recommend you to do so soon.



Bloomberg reports the latest Disney movie 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' opened as the top-grossing film over the weekend in the United States and Canada. Unfortunately, Malaysians will only be able to catch the movie on June 23rd at GSC cinemas nationwide. Movie buffs will be looking forward to the conclusion to the epic story Star Wars when it opens worldwide on the May 19th. With 'Episode III: Revenge of the Sith', this epic comes full circle and the transformation of Anakin Skywalker to the dreaded Darth Vader is complete. I've marked my calendar, have you?
