STEPHEN AND EUGENE ARE COMING WITH ME TO WATCH LION AT THE RITZ CINEMA WITH A Q&A AFTER THE SCREENING WITH GARTH DAVIS OMFGGGGGGGGGGGG SO EXCITED. GUYS DO YOU HAVE QUESTION SUGGESTIONS FOR ME TO ASK HIM??? And no, Canada,
Wednesday
So after my A Ghost Story trailer freak out till 3 am on
Tuesday night (I still wanna cry everytime I watch that trailer), I skipped my 9:30 am class because fuck that and rocked up to
uni in time for my 12 pm math tute. Learnt a tiny bit, went to ELEC lab, met my
fob partner who is also being carried by Jason (like I’m literally being
carried by him for EVERY SINGLE SUBJECT). Left ELEC, and then met up with the
boy to download solidworks.
Went to Amy’s house then we chilled for so long just playing
guitar and singing songs. We tried to learn the stupid Princess and Pauper “I’m
just like you, you’re just like me” song and we successfully did ONE of the
harmonies rip my tragic singing voice. If you haven’t seen that meme HAHAHAHA its the best.
Then I tutored Kevin, did a tiny bit of work and watched San
Junipero (Black Mirror) with Amy.
Thursday
Woke up really late, met Chris for the first time but when
people ask me my opinion of other people I don’t really have one to give. I
told them at dinner “I don’t like people” HAHAHAH which isn’t necessarily true
but I just don’t know how to KNOW people
anymore. My opinion of everyone is neutral.
Rocked up to my MMAN lab half an hour late and the
demonstrator just looked at me for 3 seconds, put his arms on his hips and deep
sighed disapprovingly. Luckily this NSB guy who also came in late had the same
last zID number as me so we just did the experiment together. I HAVE FUCKING 2
LAB REPORTS DUE NEXT WEEK SOMEONE SHOOT ME.
Then met up with Stephen and we did NOTHING for a solid 2
hours whilst we were waiting for Amy then when we found out she wasn’t coming
to meet us, we just had lunch at the Whitehouse.
Went to USYD with Stephen to hang with Eugene and the
weather was so shit it broke my umbrella?? Look at this thing.
ALSO I feel so awkward when someone’s reading my blog right
next to me because I delve way too deep into my psyche and I feel like they’re
seeing if what I’m blogging about relates to me IRL LIKE I FEEL LIKE BECAUSE
I’M ANALYSING MYSELF THEY CAN ANALYSE ME TOO?? Yah well, Eugene was reading my
blog and I was feeling v self conscious for a while but then she laughed so
hard at some things that I said that I didn’t even think was funny hehehehe
Did more of nothing at USYD until we left for dinner. Ate
hot-pot and yummy fried chicken at a Korean restaurant near Event until we were
all stuffed, then went to watch Beauty and the Beast. Our movie tickets were
$10 each and I still don’t know why they were that cheap. Can't even see the fucking rose HAHAH

MOVIE STUFF
********************
San Junipero (Black Mirror S03E04)
FUCK this was cute. I’ve been seeing so many gifsets on my
tumblr for this and I was not disappointed. It made mi heart hurt. You know
what else makes my heart hurt? When the hoe at Gong Cha gives me rainbow
jelly instead of lychee but I’m too pussy to go back and compain.
Anyway, WATCH EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET. Black Mirror is so good
(I say after I’ve watched 3 episodes) lmao. The black girl from this was in
Beauty and the Beast as the feather duster LOL. Only grip was the black girl’s
acting at the beginning. Spoilers: She redeemed herself at the end when she had
her spiel about how the white girl didn’t understand what it was like to have a
husband / child and all that. I totally believed she was an old lady yelling…but
in a really young body.
Also I would totally live in San Junipero if I could. I really like the colours in this!!
Also there's this one scene where her hair extensions are fucking awful HAHAHA.
Beauty and the Beast
Dir. Bill Condon
First half was boring as shit I almost fell asleep and I’ve
never had that urge in a cinema before. At home, sure because sometimes it’s
just way too fucking late and your eyes get tired, but I’ve always been one of
those people who are like ‘how can you fall asleep in a theatre? The screen is
so bright and the sounds are so BOOM BOOM’. Now I understand.
I completely lost interest with all the wolf drama part like
I did not even watch when he saved her after she tried to run away. I literally
messaged Canada during that part cus I was trying to stay awake. Turned into
one of those annoying cinema go-ers that I hate.
Second half was better. I liked their romance and I honestly
didn’t find the fact that I was watching a woman falling in love with a hairy
ass animal, at all weird. The beast’s awkwardness was so endearing.
Everyone agreed that the “Tale As Old As Time” ballroom
dance was a let-down because Emma Thompson was singing it and she has a really
old grandma voice with like a strong English accent which kinda killed the
romantic mood. I really like Emma Thompson but I’m just thinking when they
screen-tested this, did NO-ONE bring up the fact that it was so GRANDMA-Y. It was still cute though.
Emma Watson
We were 50-50 split on Emma. Feng, Stephen and I agreed that
she wasn’t the greatest in this movie (but is she ever good at acting??). She
had the same expressions for wonder, horror and surprise and if it wasn’t for
the context plot-wise, I would not be able to tell what she was supposed to be feeling.
I think back and there is no memorable scene where I thought WOW I’m really
empathising with her. The only thing coming to my head is her gasping and looking
over her shoulder.
Eugene and Amy were arguably blind-sided by her beauty and
FD just really liked everything about this movie??
Also she’s not the best singer so many of the high notes
were weak af and had to be bulked up by auto-tune. But that’s just a minor
negative which I just kinda just ignored after her first song. Would Emma have
gotten the role if she was slightly more average looking? NO HAHHAA. Also I’m
sure everyone was thinking “Sound of the Music” when she started singing on
those big hills lmao.
I loved the candlestick fuck he was actually the best. ALL THE SERVANTS WERE SO CUTE AND SUCH A NICE FAMILY TOGETHER (spoilers) like I did not give
a single fuck when Beast died but I was so sad when the servants turned permanently
inanimate.
CGI was pretty good for everything except for the Beast I
felt like they could’ve tracked his facial expressions better.
Set design/production/costumes were so good everything was
bathed in warm sunshine 95% of the time and looked so niceeeeeeeeeeeee.
Wow I feel like such a hater. But it was such an average
movie…
Verdict:
tbh thats my opinion for almost all movies these days
