Movie Marathon

     I won tickets to the final screening of New Moon on Friday organised by Twilighters Singapore. Yeh, just when one thought I'm done with wining anymore New Moon, eh? The questions were rather tricky, especially the first one but they were nicely chosen.   The first one got me thinking longer than I would have expected. :)

Question 1

List the Quileute tribe members that were mentioned in New Moon.

Question 2

What was Bella’s grandmother’s name?

Question 3

List down the names of the wolfpack in the sequence of their transformation.

Question 4

What was Bella’s and Mike’s choice of movies that they wanted to watch during their movie outing?

Question 5

How old were Leah and Seth when their father passed away?

    We went to Shaw's special screening room. I've never been there before. Looked rather posh but wish we'd got better seats.  Alas, we are not really the 'kiasu' types to rush for seats, LOL. In any case, it was nice to see them on the big screen again. They still look good!  For my foreign friends, 'kiasu' literally means 'fear of losing' in the local Chinese dialect.

     My sis wanted to watch another movie after that. It was a toss-up between Daybreakers and Legion. I saw the trailer for Daybreakers many times when I'd gone to watch New Moon. It's a movie about a world when vampires rule the world and humans are harvested for their blood.  I was keen to watch it but then I saw the trailer for Legion and thought it was awesome.

     People thought me crazy that Legion was my choice because I didn't want to mar my memory of my favourite vampires but hey, Daybreakers vampires also have golden eyes but they are not nice, what can I say, LOL.

     In any case, I'm glad I'd gone to watch Legion. Even though it was draggy in some parts, I rather thought it was pretty awesome! In the movie, an out-of-the-way diner becomes the unlikely battleground for the survival of the human race. When God loses faith in humankind, he sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse. Humanity's only hope lies in a group of strangers trapped in a desert diner with the Archangel Michael.

     But I reckon it's a test for Michael, Gabriel and the humans involved in it. And wow, Michael is amazing! I think Paul Bettany played him very well! I'm still thinking about him a day later. I may well have a crush on a fictitious version of an angel!
