NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, OR HOW IMPORTANT YOU THINK YOU ARE,

Saturday, March 31st, 2007

The organs of the body were having a meeting, trying to decide who was in charge.
Each organ took a turn to speak up.
Brain……… I should be in charge because I run all body functions.
Blood…….. I should be in charge because I circulate oxygen for the brain.
Stomach… I should be in charge because I process food for the brain.
Legs……… I should be in charge because I take the brain where it wants to go.
Eyes……… I should be in charge because I let the brain see where it’s going.
Asshole…..I should be in charge because I get rid of your waste.
All the other parts laughed so hard and this made the asshole very mad.
To prove his point, the asshole immediately slammed tightly closed and
s tayed that way for 6 days, refusing to rid the body of any waste whatsoever.

Day 1 - Brain got a terrible headache and cried out for relief
Day 2 - Stomach got bloated and began to ache terribly
Day 3 - Legs got cramps and became unstable
Day 4 - Eyes became watery and vision became blurred
Day 5 - Blood became toxic and poisoned the body
Day 6 -The other organs agreed to let the asshole be in charge.
MORAL OF THE STORY: NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, OR HOW IMPORTANT YOU THINK YOU ARE,

YOU WILL FIND THAT IT IS ALWAYS AN ASSHOLE THAT IS TRULY IN CHARGE

Movie-300

Saturday, March 24th, 2007

Movie Detail

In the ancient Battle of Thermopylae, King Leonidas and 300 Spartans fought to the death against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. Facing insurmountable odds, their valor and sacrifice inspire all of Greece to unite against their Persian enemy, drawing a line in the sand for democracy.

Users’ Review from Yahoo!

1)  Nice Movie, but Persian Empire wasn’t like that !!

300 is a great movie full of visual effects and graphics which made it different and much better. Acting was great, director did a wonderful job and chose great actors, full of action, and it is based on a true story.
Unfortunately, the only negative point of this movie is that they made it so different and untrue because of showing the Persian Empire and Xerxes like monsters (Persian Empire and Xerxes were Heroes too), and it lost all the History points. I prepared to watch a movie closer to the History style, and characters should be based on their true appearance (I’m sure Xerxes wasn’t that Ugly, and he had beard).
Except the negetive point, they made an amazing movie, and you’ll love it. Hope everyone enjoys it.

2)   Good movie, bad history

The movie was great lots of visual work and a heroic story, but the writer clearly had no idea about the Persian Empire. First of all, I don’t understand why all Greek Spartans look like waxed models from a model show (not to mention they jump 2 meters high with a sword, spear and a shield) but Persian Immortals all look like Orcs from Lord of The Rings. Also movie didn’t say anything about Greek slaves who fought with their masters to the very end (not that they had a choice), instead it shows Greeks hate slavery!!!!!. Moreover, I think the writer doesn’t even know where Persia was!! Half of the Persian army is African, but Persians never invaded Africa so there shouldn’t be any black individuals in the movie. Persians were the only Empire that never called their King a God (they did call them King of Kings because that’s what they were). Movie however shows Persian King’s camp is full of nudity and sexual relationship, and refers to Xerxes as a God. In addition I think the writer thought this movie is one of his comic books and therefore tried to make Persians look like Uruks just to show who’s the bad guy….

My own review :-)

I also feel this movie is great and fantastic,in history pt of view,it may a bit of overacted. but we oni treat as leisure movie,and i dun think e director will care abt history pt,he oni want to express what he imagination on his wonderland. :-)

if i can rate….Overall: B, Story: B-, Acting: A, Direction: A-, Visual:B

well,compare with last movie i watched: Twin Missions & Pan’s Labyrinth. different story backgrounds,directors and showing times….300 still e best i saw.well can beat with Gladator ;-)
