Together with Spyglass Entertainment, Hasbro and Paramount Pictures, whose previous worldwide blockbuster collaboration of the "Transformers", bring another extraordinary action-adventure to the big screen and we're not passing up the chance to see it. August 7, Kiara and I flocked to theaters just like hundreds in line for the premier of G.I. Joe: The Rise of the Cobra. All I really know about G.I. Joe is that it's this little action figures my brothers were just dying to have.
So when my daughter asked: "Who is G.I. Joe? What does G.I. Joe stand for?"
Janiz: "We'll find out."
Kiara: *shrug*
I did the eye-roll thing when I saw the trailer with the accelerator suits, but it turned out to be one fo the coolest thing in the movie. I'm pretty surprised that I could say that it was pretty good.
After that action packed, male dominated movie, we decided to go window shopping, which we haven't done for some time now. And sometimes this "window shopping" thing becomes a photo op moment for Kiara.
And sometimes too, the word "window" is forgotten and left at the door, just before we enter the store. Which leaves us to just shopping...and leaves me broke.
I'm still backlogged with my blogs. July 17, it's no surprise that people would flock to theaters to welcome Harry and the gang back to the big screen in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Kiara, Jason and I were of no exception.
Almost all seats were sold out so we had to settle with the not-so-great-seat which was close to the screen! But I must say, this would be the funniest of the Harry Potter series. And I thought Warner Bros. and David Yates did a fine job with the film. When the 3-hour movie finally came to a close, I was actually complaining that the movie was "bitin"! Sheesh, that would mean that I'd have to wait another year for the last installment.
Oh well, we headed to Bonifacio High Street since my brother said Theodore's was on sale.
While my brother were trying some clothes on, Kiara was busy lounging at the place and took advantage at the fact that we were the only customers at that time.
A weekend ago, my daughter watched one of Disney's most anticipated movie of the year, Hannah Montana The Movie. At first I thought Kiara has outgrown the show, and us watching was merely out of curiosity, but I guess it wasn't so. Yes, I'm that type of mom who still watches cartoons with my little girl, and honestly I do enjoy watching these kinds of shows. So watching Hannah Montana on the big screen wasn't such a drag for me.
As for the movie review, I just can say that the movie is a big cliche. But I still honestly believe that Miley Cirus is given one of the biggest oppurtunities, given the chance to be one of the Disney icons that's been adored by millions of little girls, aspiring to be someone like her. Maybe Disney has been doing these kinds of movies for decades but what they may have improved are the songs. You'd find me singing along while the whole movie was running.
It was honestly just a coincidence. We totally forgot we were actually watching the movie, the only time we actually realized what Kiara was wearing was when we were in line to get our tickets and we were given the weird stare. I believe they were screaming at us in their minds: "Hannah Montana fan much?"
Even when we were home, we were still humming the tunes to the songs. You can try to dance along with Hannah too and do the hoedown!
I was joining Kiara but these kinds of things are too much for me already. I have to draw the line.
