10000BC

fusion is officially over! it was a fantastic experience...not going into details....i want my pictures! feel free to email to xelex_03@hotmail.com if u hav any fusion photos tat hav me inside! thanks in advance.

watched 10,000 BC. (spoilers ahead.)

its the kind of hollywood story again. simple goal...upright protagonist (almost zero bad behaviour), beautiful female lead actress (almost zero personality), a 'holy' grandma (provides predictions, good advice), an evil and muscular bad guy with deep voice( who will snatch away the pretty lead actress so that the protagonist can rise to the call and become a hero, and u will know for sure..he is THE ONE! fuck it...), a respectable senior who serves a mentor for the protagonist....and then died/sacrifies his life during the rescue...(to show ordeal is not a easy job...the stake is high..and we should feel for them more....)...fine, then the protagonist will acknowledge his role even more as a hero, and then he will fight to save his love....and on this journey, he will make friends who will help him later in teh final battle....
the ending, the protagonist WILL deliver (95% of the time in all movies, the protaginist is the one dealing the fatal blow) the devastating blow to kill muscular bad guy as well as his 'GOD'/boss...so tat we will acknowledge him as the hero, and then we will love him and respect him more. crap.

does tat sound like LION KING to you? the story structure is almost the same....and this story structure provides the 'safest' story that can be targeted to the world audience. yes, rather than to be safe than sorry. and this is where many mega block busters' story is so dry and boring...so safe...sigh.... i'm just feeling frustrated. these writers follow formula too damn closely...we can't feel that the movies are similar beos settings/time/characters are diferent, but if u observe close enough, u'll realise tat theres A SIMILAR PATTERN in most movies.

okay back to 10,000 BC. the female lead actress died near the end of the show. hmmm, considering the fact that the protagonist lost his most beloved woman while he still managed to free the slaves...now i think i can feel abit sorry for him....cause the WHOLE DAMN STORY is about rescuing her and the others (sounds like golden compass huh...rescuing somebody...) and with her dead, this story will be slightly different from the Lion King story which is a perfect ending. In the end, the holy grandma of the protagonist's tribe 'sent' her soul to the dead female lead and revived her. F***K! perfect ending again....a feel good story again....lion king story structure again. the protagonist and others return to his village/pride to re-establish the kingdom. then u'll see the SUN! lolol....(be it sunset or sunset.) why?....cos it symbolises hope, future, justice, warmth and love. yeah, it suggests a new beginning.....then u'll see the credit. same old trick throughout....yawnz.

not sure if u should watch the show? go yahoo movies there and watch the trailers...almost all the better scenes/ action scenes are there....a smart way to hook up more victims. they literally pull out all of the show's best seq into the trailerSSS....kinda sad to know tat they did not reserve any good scenes so tat the audience can be a little surprised when watching the show in cinema.

following the successful formula of a movie may be a smart way to ensure ya movie will appeal to the audience...BUT hey......the 'LION KING formula' has been OVERUSED. damn it....

i dig for formulas and stuff for story writing...cos its really efficient. i learn the formulas in order to understand better....not to apply anyhow....

i tok so much....guess its time for me to do my own stuff soon.

before this....i need to experience a good holiday. to get more inspirations!
