Top Ten Best And Worst Movies of the Year

Best Movies:

10. Public Enemies - Johnny Depp AND Christian Bale, now THAT'S a movie.
9. Paranormal Activity - Scariest movie of the year (at least the scariest i watched)
8. District 9 - Awesome, except for the fookin' South African
7. The Informant - Weird, but in a funny way
6. Zombieland - Time to nut up or shut up
5. Inglorious Basterds - Haha Bear Jew
4. 500 Days of Summer - Best romantic comedy ever
3. Star Trek - Live long and propsper
2. Avatar - Best special effects ever
1. Up - Best Pixar movie ever. And that's saying something.

Worst Movies:

10. Terminator Salvation - Biggest disappointment ever. It had Christian Bale in a post apocalyptic world. But then it's directed by a dude who calls himself McG (Mac Jee)
9. Lesbian Vampire Killers - Just look at the name
8. Transformers 2 - Ruined the robot action with trying to make the robots funny.
7. Gamer - This was crap. Like Death Race, but without cars.
6. New Moon - It's a Twilight movie. Enough said.
5. Push - Had a good concept, but ruined it with a truly crap action
4. X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Completely ruined the Wolverine origin with too many characters and really crappy special effects
3. Hannah Montana: The Movie - It's Hannah Montana. In movie form.
2. Street Fighter: Legend of Chun Li - The only reason its not No. 1 is because i couldn't watch all of it
1. Dragonball Evolution - Perfect example of how to ruin something awesome.

thursday

apologies for not posting yesterday but i will make up for it with this. i had the worst day yesterday. i skipped breakfast (havent had breakfast in quite a while actually) because i slept in at 11, then realised that i couldnt have lunch because i had to go to the dentist so i went hungry for around 4 hours. And had to go to the dentist. Then i went to get a haircut (i hate haircuts) and when i got home i had to mow the lawn (i hate mowing the lawn). But i made up for it with migoreng noodles for dinner. :D

Office quote of the day:
Kelly: Dwight! Get out of my nook! (That's what she said)

AVATAR

On monday, i watched avatar at IMAXXXXXXX!!! It's about this cripple guy who gets to be this awesome amazing huge alien thing using mind control (avatar, not imax). The first half hour of the movie is the best, becuase ur not used to the 3d effects yet and it looks so cool. The special effects in the movie are awesome, because all the stuff looks so real. Sam Worthington is also really good in this movie, even when he's that alien and the motion capture is so much better than previous films, eg. Beowulf.
The story is a bit simple and its really predictable, you know what's going to happen half an hour before it actually does, but that sort of works, because you want Jake to ride that huge badass dragon.

An excellent movie with excellent special effects.

Rating: 4.5/5

Sherlock Holmes

I went to watch sherlock holmes on sunday and it is about the famously brilliant detective taking on a new case involving mysteries of magic and an event that could change the fate of the earth etc. etc. etc. This version is an updated version, and it looks a lot cooler. Robert Downey Jr. is awesome as Holmes because he's funny and knows kung fu. He sort of reminds me of House and Captain Jack Sparrow put together. Everyone else in the movie is boring. I liked the action even the bits where he explains what he's going to do before he does it.
Probably the only problem with the movie is the story. I really didnt like how holmes has to deal with magic coz you immediately already know that there is a logical explanation for everything. And he only does a proper deduction twice, once somewhere in the middle and once at the end. But the end explanation is so unsatisfying it doesnt really count.

So in the end its a good movie, but not a great one.

Rating: 3/5 (note 2 of those points are for robert downey)

saturday

muahahahaha, once again this blog is under my complete tyrannical control. You will now be subjected to lame boxing day jokes. Where does santa live in the north pole? In a box! (that's why its called boxing day, coz santa gets boxed in!). speaking of boxes, take a look at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GkTu7JLLNk

Office quote of the day:
Dwight: The purse girl hits everything on my checklist: creamy skin, straight teeth, curly hair, amazing breasts. Not for me, for my children. The Schrutes produce very thirsty babies.

CHRISTMAS DAY!!!!! (friday)

YAY!!! IT'S CHRISTMAS!! i used to be really excited about christmas, but this year i almost forgot that it was christmas eve. probably because our christmas tree broke and we didnt put one up this year. i also think that it was when i stopped believing in santa. or just didnt like him any more. i think it was when "santa" gave me a maths book one christmas and i was like "santa you asshole, now i have to do maths on christmas". and i actually did. so that was probably my worst christmas ever. actually this christmas is kinda sad as well since im blogging.

well MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! (happy hannukah to falko)

Office quote of the day: Dwight brings a dead goose on Christmas
Dwight: I ran it over this morning. Christmas miracle!

THURSDAY

I will be away for 10 days starting on Christmas day on a trip to New Zealand. Once again I must ask you to make do with Louie's posts.

On another subject, my cousin wrote a Christmas card for me.


I wish you a fantastic Christmas and a happy new year.

wednesday

didnt blog on monday because I WAS ON A BOAT!!! but i made up for it by blogging on sunday. anyway, i hate summer. probably because its when the mosquitoes come out to sting you.
the most annoying places to sting you are:
your fingers
your toes
anywhere on ur feet because you cant scratch them when youve got your shoes on

the funniest places to sting you are (bear in mind that these are places where i find they are funny when they happen to someone else and not myself):
your balls, coz when ur in public, it looks like uve got an STD when ur scratching them.

Office quote of the day: I don't want people sucking up to me because they think that i will further their career. I want people sucking up to me because they genuinely love me.

TUESDAY

I am typing this from my iPod. Excuse that this is a late post. I am writing this a little past midnight. Went to watch Avatar and go to a boat party today. Both were pretty good. Nothing else to say.

END OF POST

sunday

Tomorrow, we are having a Booze Cruise. and it better be good. otherwise i will be very unhappy.

Office quote of the day:
Jan: I underestimated you Michael
Michael: Well let's hope next time that you estimate me.

SATURDAY

I'm a guy of routine and rituals. And so it is extremely disturbing that my routines were stopped for ten whole days. After coming back from annual:

• I had 4 unread xkcd comics and 10 unread Explosm comics
• I did not read my morning paper for 10 days in a row.
• I had not eaten any pretzels for 10 days
• my inbox had a lot of emails.
• I had not played any flash games for more than 10 days.
• I had not practised piano for 10 days.
• I had not read the word of the day on dictionary.com for 10 days.
  

And last but not least, I did not do my routine blog update for 10 days.

Good news, however is that most of these predicaments are being taken care of. Also, I got some other guy called Vincent Kong to add me on facebook. Excelsior!

thursday

extremely bored at home. So i sat at my window watching cars go by. have you noticed that most driving schools are run by asians? probably why we have so many accidents.

Office quote of the day: Twelve hundred dollars is what I spent on my whole bomb shelter. For that kind of money, this stroller, should be indestructible.

tuesday

YAY!!! it's the last day of school. time for the reign of the evil junior years to be replaced by the evil tyranny of the senior years. I am currently addicted to bejeweled 2 on my ipod and the office.
from today onwards, i will have an office quote of the day. and of course i will start this with:

Office quote of the day: That's what she said

monday

so today we had drama performances, which i thought went pretty well, and in typical louie fashion, i forgot A LOT of my lines, hence the awkward silences. Honorary mentions have to go to Leow, who did a hilarious voldemort (watch out, he'll eat your goosefeather pillow), pop for actually making the jelly with the stapler in it and also looking identical to dwight, and jessica aiiii for looking, sounding, acting etc exactly like Janice from friends. I don't even think she was acting at all! jk. Altogether, everyone did a good job, apart from the audience, who didnt do much at all except laugh and clap.

sunday

Forgot to blog for a while, and since Vincent isn't here it means that i am the sole writer of this blog. I am probably now also the sole reader as no one will read this since vincent is on annual and tim (who occasionally visits) also went. So i'll just sit here humming to myself. La di da di da.

intermission

I apologise for the lack of blog yesterday. To make up for it, here's an old Walter story. Please keep in mind I wrote this in year 7.

Farmer Walter

Farmer Walter was not a lucky man. He was a farmer and never grew anything. In seven years of farming, all he had harvested was two carrots, a cabbage and a potato he found on the ground. In fact, if it weren't for regular donations from friends, Walter would have starved to death a long time ago.

It was a normal day for Walter. He somehow set a fire alight, putting his house in flames. Using all that was left of his water for irrigation, he put out the fire. Then it rained. None of the water fell into his catchment because he felt the need to build a shelter on it to protect it from the elements. Feeling sleepy, Walter headed for his bedroom, only to realise his house was burnt down. So he slept in his empty dam catchment, which sheltered him from all the elements.

In his dream, Walter was walking around a fancy looking office in a fancy looking suit. He looked around and saw a framed newspaper article, with a large heading reading: "Lucky farmer discovers giant oil well." He scanned down the article and took note of where the oil well was.

Walter awoke, refreshed and excited. In fact, he didn't even notice the dam shelter had collapsed and there was a nice piece of shrapnel wedged in his skull. After crawling out of the dam, Walter ran excitedly to the place where he had remembered the oil to be. He then realised he had no shovel. So he called his dog. Then he realised his dog was died a few months ago, after he got the pesticide pellets and the dog food confused. So he ran to his tool shed- only to realise it was burnt down. Walter was then forced to dig with his hands. But he didn't mind. No. He was going to be rich. Even the germs spreading from the rust on the shrapnel didn't bother him. Now Walter could finally buy everything he wanted.

After several hours of digging, a black car drove up to Walter. It almost hit him, but luckily, it just ran over Walter's cat. A man walked out of the car, giving Walter a raised eyebrow as he stared at his pathetic digging.

"Are you the pathetic owner of this desolate land?" asked the man. "Because I'm willing to buy it for a small price."

Walter considered this for a while and decided to sell all of his land except the patch of land he was digging in. After doing this, he pocketed the cheque and decided to hitchhike to his friend's house to stay for the night.

The next morning, Walter awoke next to a highway. Being the lucky person he was, Walter got noone to actually take him on a ride. Walking his fat body across the roads, he reached the city in an hour, only to realise it was the wrong one, so he took a bus to his friends house.

Of course, this was when he realised he had no money. Sitting outside a television store, he looked at the televisions on display. A woman was on the screen reading a news bulletin:

"Oil has been found today on some land in a rural area."

Walter's heart lept.

"It was found in some land previously owned by a man named Walter."

Walter's heart sank.

"Strangely enough, it was found 2 metres away from the only piece of land that Walter had decided to keep."

wednesday

today we had the tsunami relief concert where me and tim thought of ways to do really retarded stuff like going on stage to tell the "How to save a life" group to fuck off the stage coz ppl tried to clap them off three times already, as well as trying to start claps and screams, and we just ended up clapping and screaming by ourselves. Oh yeh and tim wet himself today LOLOLOLOL WHAT A BABY CAN'T EVEN SURVIVE WITHOUT HIS NAPPIES.

TUESDAY

Faithful readers be advised. Today's update will be posted very late.

monday

Yay! My very first blog on this blog! So today, as everyone knows, we went to Luna Park. I personally enjoyed the dodgem cars and the wild mouse rides (which happen to be the only ones i went on). I learnt absolutely nothing about this experience except that the food was crazily overpriced ($12 for a crappy burger, some chips and a drink) but definitely didn't learn anything about physics, which was good. It was a good day, just wish that it was cooler and that i went on more rides.

Also, i hate how on hot days when you turn on your cold water tap, the water is hot. I didn't even need to turn on the hot water when showering today.

SATURDAY

I hate Apple very very much.

Well not that much. I just got everything to work now. I got an iPod touch, which I found very hard to put music onto because iTunes kept screwing up for me.

I would also like to point out that this is my 69th post.

THURSDAY

Today I got locked out the house so I had to break in from one of the windows on the second storey because all the ground storey ones were locked shut. My mum started shouting at me for this because she said I was demonstrating how to break into our house to any would-be burglars that happened to be watching me.

I seem to find myself looking forward to next year, even though I shouldn't, what with all the crap I'm going to have to do. There's all the stress of year 11 and my AMus, which I'm going to have to practise like crazy if I want to have any chance of passing in May. But optimism is good so I'll try to stay happy about it.

In bad news today, I think I'm developing a cold.

TUESDAY

It's meant to be that time of year right now where you can not give a shit about anything. Unfortunately that's not entirely the case right now which annoys me because I was really looking to doing nothing.

I watched Citizen Kane a few days ago and I actually found it very entertaining. I usually find older movies hard to follow, especially when there's lots of characters involved but I liked Citizen Kane from start to end.

Anyhow, those looking for some more things to read can go this site.
