Avatar Review :)

I saw Avatar in 3D on Tuesday and since there is nothing to do today I thought i would do a review on it.

Of course I shall start with some stolen information to explain about the movie and such...

The film begins in the year 2154 and focuses on Pandora, an inhabited Earth-like moon of Polyphemus, one of the three fictional gas giants orbiting Alpha Centauri A. Humans are engaged in mining Pandora's reserves of a precious mineral, while the na'vi — the sapient race of humanoids indigenous to the moon — resist the colonists' expansion, which threatens the continued existence of the na'vi and the destruction of the Pandoran ecosystem. The film's title refers to the remotely controlled, genetically engineered human-na'vi bodies used by the film's human characters to interact with the natives. When his brother is killed in battle, paraplegic Marine Jake Sully decides to take his place in a mission on the distant world of Pandora. There he learns of greedy corporate figurehead Parker Selfridge's intentions of driving off the native humanoid "Na'vi" in order to mine for the precious material scattered throughout their rich woodland. In exchange for the spinal surgery that will fix his legs, Jake gathers intel for the cooperating military unit spearheaded by gung-ho Colonel Quaritch, while simultaneously attempting to infiltrate the Na'vi people with the use of an "avatar" identity. While Jake begins to bond with the native tribe and quickly falls in love with the beautiful alien Neytiri, the restless Colonel moves forward with his ruthless extermination tactics, forcing the soldier to take a stand - and fight back in an epic battle for the fate of Pandora.

If you've been living under a rock for the last six months and had no idea what Avatar was, then I hope that little snippet of information gave you a rough idea.

Since I kinda explained the movie above I think I might take this review in a new direction from my previous ones and go into more depth with the main characters...

Jake Sully played by Sam Worthington

(who is from Australia :D)

Jake sully is an ex-marine. He is selected into the Avatar program to replace his twin brother (who was killed) on a planet called Pandoara which has an expensive mineral called Unobtanium. While he is on a mission Jake is accepted into a na'vi clan (the native people on Pandora) and uses his new position to kind of infiltrate the clan (whose tribe is situated on the largest deposit of unobtanium) in attempt to get the tribe to move territories. While learning their ways he begins to see how what the humans are doing is wrong and fights as a na'vi to protect Pandora against distruction.

Sam Worthington played Jake Sully with emotion and a the right sort of attitude for the role. Jake was quite playful and experimental but also a bit of a smarts-ass at times. Some of his remarks were quite amusing. He also has his fair share of dramatic and serious scenes with motivation speeches and sadness which really showed Worthington's range of acting ability. At times his accent was a little rough and would switch from an american accent back to his australian accent but it was not too noticable. Sam Worthington is a capable and compelling actor and played the role of Jake Sully quite convincingly.

Neytiri played by Zoe Saldana.

Neytiri is a Na'vi from the planet Pandora. Her father is the leader of the tribe and her mother is the spiritual leader. She lives in and around the 'Home tree'- a gigantic tree situated over the largest deposit of unobtainium in Pandora. She saves Jake from a group of anmals treatening him and he follows her back to the tribe. After Jake is accepted by the tribe, Naytiri is instructed to teach Jake the ways of her people. With her great disleasure she instructs Jake in the customs and ways of her people and their culture and they become infatuated with eachother. When the humans threaten to eliminate the na'vi's territory to mine the unobtaninium, Neytiri pairs with Jake and her tribe to defend her home and her people and drive the humans away.

Zoe Saldana plays Neytiri with a confident but deep persona. She is strong and idependent but her love and devotion to her people is amazing. Saldana shows these characteristics through her prominent facial and bodily emotions. She portrays happiness, anger, grief, sadness, passion and many other emotions throughout the movie very convincingly but with a hint of alieness showing her true origin as an na'vi not a human. Zoe Saldana is obviously an extemely diverse but capable actor and this especially show in her her role as Neyiri.

Colonel Miles Quaritach played by Stephen Lang.

Colonel Miles is a leader of an operation to rid the area of natives where Neytiri's tribe live so that a human corporation can mine the land for unobtainium. He first approaches Jake with the offer to give him back the use of his legs in return for insiders infmation on the na'vi. He is direct and straight to the pointwith the soldiers in the operation. When Jake hasn't rid the area of the na'vi in the time he was alloted, Colonel Miles goes into action and wages war against that natives destroying anything or anyone who gets in his way.

Stephen Lang plays Colonel Miles Quaritach as a complete bad-ass. He's tough and ruthless and Lang shows this in every aspect of his character. Although his character is a pretty typical: a tough looking, heavy southern accented, khaki wearing, scar bearing, strong voiced soldier, Lang incorporates just the right ammount of evil bad guy...about 95%. I'm not really aquainted with what kind of characters Lang usually plays but he was pretty spot on with this one.

Dr. Grace Augustine played by Sigourney Weaver.

Dr. Grace Augustine accompanies Jake. Her goal is to help him through his battle against the enormous amount of diverse Unknown creatures on the planet of 'Alpha Centauri B-4' and make sure he, herself, and the rest of the operation make it out alive. Dr. Grace Augustine is the lead scientist in the Avatar operation/experiment and is very knowledgeable in the medical field and learns that her knowledge could save not only one but many. She is close to the na'vi and even opened a school in one of the tribes. As her fight for survival grows on she learns that she will need more than just a medical strength and knowledge in order to survive. In the end Grace will need to battle for whats right.

Sigourney Weaver plays Dr. Grace Augustine with just the right ammount of femmininity and a load of kick-ass personality. She plays her as a strong, independant and overall smart leader and she doesn't take crap from any of the corporations above her. Weaver is suited to this character with her ide range of differnet personalities and emotions. She is witty and independant and doesn't take any bullshit and Weaver portrays this well on the screen.

Other main characters in Avatar...

Trudy Chacon played by Michelle Rodriquez

The ass-kicking helicopter pilot who helps Jake against the humans. Shes quite funny.

Norm Spellman played by Joel Moore
The scientist/avatar who is on the same operation/mission as Jake Sully.
At one stage in the movie he seems kind of jealous of Jake.

Eytukan played by Wes Studi
The leader of the na'vi tribe who live in the 'Home Tree'.
Father of Neytiri and mate of Mo'at.

Mo'at played by CCH Pounder (no photo)

Spiritual Leader of the tribe who live in the 'Home Tree'.

Mother of Neytiri and mate of Etukan.

Parker Selfridge played by Giovanni Ribisi.
Leader of the company running the mining for uobtainium on Pandora.

Even though this movie wasn't very original I still quite enjoyed it. It had the greatest special effects I have ever seen.Even though it went for almost three hours it was fast paced and had lots of different aspects and themes including right and wrong, love, hate, good versus evil, learning, fighting, war, trust, loyalty...you name it. I would recommend this movie too anyone becuse it was quite enjoyable (oh and it's best to see it in 3D because its awesome!).

It's by Leona Lewis...it's really good :)

I haven't really done anything lately either.

This is just such a terribly exciting blog...aren't you glad you read it, I certainly am.

I went swimming too. The water was actually warm...

Other than that I have just been downloading movies and music and stuff. Oh and I streamed Jeniffers Body off the interwebs so I might do a review on it.

Oh and I will also do a few reviews on some books that I have read lately that I liked...alot.

I think I will keep this just a very short bloggetty blog so...

Se onr sverdar sitja hvass!
Pixii xoxo.

10/12/09

Dear Phyllis...

I don't think i've done a blog in December yet...actually I did but it was pretty lame. Wow the years almost over and I haven't accomplished anything. Maybe next year will be better...I hope.

I've been quite busy lately...i've been working since school finished two weeks ago. Oh and I went to Bargara for a holiday. OMG and I also got paramore tickets!!!!!



Rightio well I will start with a bit about my holiday at Bargara. Well my brother and I (the other one is somewhere else) caught a bus to my mums work and waited till she finished. I don't usually go into smiggle coz it looks uber gay but my little brother wanted to have a look and I ended up buying a travel journal for my trip to Japan. So when mum finished we all got into the car and drove to Bargara. Four hours later we arrived and went to our little hotel thing. It was night time then so we went to this lion king themed restaurant and it was good as. It was right on the beach front :). Then we went back to the hotel and slept.

The next day we got up and went swimming at the beach and the pool and we went and saw my Aunty. I really like my Aunty coz shes like 56 but shes seen more movies than me. So we ended up talking about 2012 and New Moon and that kinda thing. Then we went to the shops and bought flowers and a little xmas decoration for my nanas grave. Then we went and arrange a little bit of a xmassy thing. It looked really nice and I felt really good about it.

The next day was pretty much the same but we mostly swam and then my mum and my bro went and saw some friends while I stayed home and watched Saw 5 :( that is one horrible stupid movie and i'm sorry I wasted my life on it. But then there was August Rush and it was all good :)

On our last day we only went swimming as we had to be out by 10am. Then we went and had breakfast at a little cafe near the beach. My brother and I both ordered waffle and my god they were huge. I was so full it was gross haha. When I got home I had to go to work :( but at least i'm getting paid today :)

Okay now I will talk about my Paramore tickets :D I am uber excited and the concert is in February. I hope The Swellers and Paper Route are supporting like they did in Europe coz they're pretty good too. Ahhhhh I can't wait I love Paramore and when they came in 2007 I wanted to see them but becoz I was only 12 I wasn't allowed and i'm pretty sure it was an over 18's show anyways..







Alright i'll stop crapping on.

I wish I had a boat that I could just sail away in to the sunset.

I am not very likeable.

I believe we are all just pawns in Gods game of chess.

I believe that everyones soul is as pure as the day they were born. For some it just takes longer to find.

I cry at the drop of a hat.

I believe every living creatures life has a meaning.

I like writing letters to people.

I belive the master lived.

I think war is the epiphany of man.

I shop at woolworths.

I have a pet frog who lives in the toilet.

I have found love. My meaning though is different than yours.

I can speak some elvish.

I don't want to grow up and grow old.

I believe Peter Pan is somewhere out there waiting for wendy.

New Moon Review :)

I have now seen the movie twice so I thought I would finally review it...


"Shoot," I muttered when the paper sliced my finger; I pulled it out to examine the damage. A single drop of blood oozed from the tiny cut.

It all happened very quickly then.

Edward threw himself at me, flinging me back across the table...

I tumbled down to the floor by the piano, with my arms thrown out instinctively to catch my fall, into the jagged shards of glass. I felt the searing, stinging pain that ran from my wrist to the crease inside my elbow.

Dazed and disoriented, I looked up from the bright red blood pulsing out of my arm—into the fevered eyes of the six suddenly ravenous vampires.

****

For Bella Swan, there is one thing more important than life itself: Edward Cullen. But being in love with a vampire is even more dangerous than Bella could ever have imagined. Edward has already rescued Bella from the clutches of one evil vampire, but now, as their daring relationship threatens all that is near and dear to them, they realize their troubles may be just beginning...

Legions of readers entranced by the New York Times bestseller Twilight are hungry for the continuing story of star-crossed lovers, Bella and Edward. In New Moon, Stephenie Meyer delivers another irresistible combination of romance and suspense with a supernatural twist. Passionate, riveting, and full of surprising twists and turns, this vampire love saga is well on its way to literary immortality.



Okay I got that from Stephenie Meyers website but if you haven't been living under a rock for the last year and a half then you get the idea.

The movie was amazing!!! I am a huge twihard and it was worth the wait. Because I live in Australia we were one of the first countries to see the movie because of the time differences around the world.

I'm not sure what to say...the movie was perfect.It was full of action, romance, heartbreak and everything a good movie should have. It had a strong story line and really captivates the viewer. The cliff-hanger ending is fantastic as it encourages the viewer to want to see the next movie. It didn't exactly follow the exact story line but it was sure a hell close. Kristen Stewart played Bella Swan well. She didn't seem as much of a stoner in this movie. She portrayed all emotions so well and Taylor Lautner....OMFG he is gawjus. He is also a great actor and portrayed Jacob Black SO well...Especially when he took his shirt off. He is pretty much the only person in the movies that I see as their character in the book. As for he rest of the characters they were just as amazing....except maybe Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen (I'm team Edward) but he just didn't do it for me. The rest of the Cullen's all played their minor roles extremely passionately...Alice is seen the most and she is very enthusiastic. Then theres the Volturri...WOW. They were a tad funny but mostly freaky as hell. Overall the acting was of very high quality.

The quality of the cinematography in this movie in the saga was exceptional...also with a Way higher budget of course than twilight.The special effects were magnificent and the werewolves were amazing! It still kept the feeling of the first movie though not as green. The playlist was amazing.Including songs from Death Cab For Cutie, Muse, Thom Yorke Anya Marina and many more...pretty much all indie artists VIEW IT HERE!.



I recommend this for EVERYONE.

Again if you don't agree with my opinions and ideas leave a comment beacause I would much like to know your view :)

Bite me please Edward...Pixii xox <3

Dear Phyllis...

I'm Done, I'm Done, I'M DONE!!!
No more Grade 9 EVER! :)

I finished on Thursday so I know this is a little bit late but oh well better late than never I guess. The last day was so much fun. At lunch time my group and some year 10 girls made water balloons and dropped them from the balcony on he year 9 plastics group. It was fuckin hilarious. We had to like sprint away coz im on my last chance or i'm expelled and that would have probably done it.

On Thursday night it was my little brothers graduation. It has to be the stupidest thing ive ever been to. We had to sit in church for like 2 hours then I had to watch him sing and do a whole lotta crap that i didnt really care about. I ended up sitting behind a girl im fighting with and the whole time her mother kept giving me evil glares. Then they made us so like grace or something before we ate nibblies thingo and it was really really dull.

On Friday my brothers had to go to school but I didnt so I went into Rocky with my muumy. We gave out some of her resumes on the way then she had to go to work. I ended up hanging around the shopping centre for like 5 hours because I couldnt be bothered to catch a bus. The positive aspects of hanging around in a shopping cantre all day is that you come to know people. I ended up making friends with alot of shop keepers becoz i tend to just talk to people. I bought The Count of Monte Cristo for $7 :)

After hanging at the shops pretty much all day I had to watch my little brother play rugby. Stupid kid can play any damn sport he likes and be good at it. He ended up getting most promising player. While I was watching one of my teacher came up and said hi...I was like hi and then it was really awkward. Haha.

And today....Well today was fun. I had judo in the morning and it was quite un-eventful. Just flipped a few people and sat on them :) It took us like half an hor to get out of the parking-lot because all thes bikies were there. After judo I went to thwe movies with my friends. We saw New Moon...again and my friend alex and I laughed in all the wrong places :D Then we went shopping and looked around for a bit. Then my friend left I went and hung out in mums shop and went home.......That leads us to now.

I've saved $94.40 not including the $11.50 I used at the movies today which ment I saved $105.90. Go me :) I can never save money coz i always end up spending it.

OMG I never told you...I start work on Wednesday :) As a waitress at the marina. I'm excited coz then i'll be able to save even more money for my trip to Japan :D.

Anyways
Peace and Happines to you, Pixii xox.

Art Assessment.....:(

I think i'm going to fail art this term. My assignment sucks pretty bad and I haven't finished my sureallistic drawing...

Have a sqiz...

Head Over Heels
Appraising Assignment.
Art, Term 4 2009

The clothing or costume an artist chooses for his subject matter can say a great deal about the person or persons. It can tell the viewer about the culture, the society, the time in history, the religion, the occupation, even the social status of the person in the artwork. An artwork which supports this argument is ‘The Arnolfini Portrait.’ The Arnolfini Portrait was painted by Jan Van Eyck. Van Eyck was from Masseik (Belgium) and was born in the 1390s and died in 1441. He was part of the art movement, the northern renaissance. The Arnolfini Portrait was painted with oil paints on oak in 1434.

The artwork is of two people, Giovanni and his wife. At first she appears to be pregnant. This is a misconception and the woman is just holding her full-skirted dress in the contemporary fashion. The couple are holding hands and the man has his right hand extended. There is a dog at their feet; beside them is a pair of odd looking shoes that were popular in Europe in the 1400s. In the background there is a mirror that shows two figures in the doorway. One may be the painter himself; Arnolfini raises his right hand as he faces them, perhaps in greeting. Above the mirror there is an ornate signature that translates into ‘Jan Van Eyck was here 1434’.Both persons are wearing clothing that was popular for upper class citizens in Europe in the 1400s.

The technique that Van Eyck has used to create the artwork is brush to apply paint. This was done with tightly controlled strokes as to make it more realistic and detailed. Using tightly controlled strokes, he has created a realistic painting showing different effects with light and shading.

Colours are a big part within a painting. Colours that are mainly used in this artwork are red some of the furnishing, green for the woman’s dress, navy for the Giovanni’s clothing and also greys, black and browns. These give contrast to each other and draw the eye to different sections of the piece.

Lines express emotion, show direction and create different effects in works of art. In the painting of Arnolfini and his Wife, Van Eyck has used delicate, lines to create effective detail.

Using space makes objects appear closer or further away, it gives perspective and gives you a sense of confusion or openness. As for Arnolfini and his Wife the artwork makes you feel quite cluttered. The artist has positioned the objects close together and has also varied the size of the objects making them look further away or closer.

Shapes are what make an artwork. The give structure, they are the basis for everything. In the case of this artwork the shapes are realistic. They are flowing because they are detailed and realistic. Using these shapes he has portrayed realistic humans and created a realistic environment.

Some paintings use texture to make things stand, be bold and to set the kind of feeling the artwork has. From look at a picture of the artwork the painting comes across as having a smooth texture. But seeing as I have not seen the actual artwork I wouldn’t really know.

Tone makes things look more dimensional and realistic. Jan Van Eyck has used a contrast of light and dark in many areas. There is light coming in from the window and there are darker shadows where the light doesn’t reach. The light is gleaming off the chandelier. This makes the artwork look quite realistic.

The artwork is altogether balanced. It is realistic and everything is situated in a normal manner.

The Arnolfini Portrait is a portrait of Giovanni di Nicolao and his wife. It is not intended as a record of their wedding and his wife is not pregnant as often thought. Giovanni came from a wealthy merchant family and therefore they are situated in a well-appointed interior. Both persons in the artwork are dressed according to the time (1400s) and where they are from (Europe). The woman is wearing a long, full skirted dress and a head piece traditional to Northern Europe. The man is wearing what looks to be a long coat and a hat that was popular in the 1400s in Northern Europe. It shows that they are both upper- class citizens.

The way a person is dressed in an artwork can make a whole lot of difference. If there was a man dressed as a 15th century European priest in a contemporary Australian artwork it wouldn’t make too much sense. It also can show what era, time in history, race, religion, social status and sexual orientation a person is. If you look closely at an artwork you can find out more that what is perceived.

That's it...
Lets get fucked up an die, Pixii xoxo :)

Just a little bit of advertising....

...OF MY AWSOMENESS!!!!!

Haha when I can be bother I will do a review for NEW MOON...but right now I am busy revising and assignmenting.

Dead Poets Society Review :)

'Robin Williams Seizes the day in DEAD POETS SOCIETY'

Released in 1989 and directed by Peter Weir this epic coming of age film tells the story of a group of boys who attend a traditional 19th century style prepatory school in 1959. It portrays the issues that young adults face when making the passage from childhood into adulthood. Winning an Oscar for Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen, Dead Poets Society also won thirteen other awards and was nominated for another fifteen.

When painfully shy Todd Anderson played by Ethan Hawke attends Welton Academy, a prestigious prepatory school in Vermont, he is befriended by his roommate Neil Perry who is played by Robert Sean Leonard. Along with their friends Knox Overstreet, Charlie Dalton, Steven Meeks, Gerard Pitts and Richard Cameron they meet their new English teacher, Mr John Keating who is played by Robin Williams. Keating encourages the boys to re-initiate the Dead Poets Society and guides them as they struggle with the issues of growing up and finding their own individual identities in a conformist environment. This ultimately leads to un-foreseen consequences in which the boys are challenged think about who they are and find the courage to be true to themselves.

Written by Tom Schulman, Dead Poets Society is semi- autobiographical and is loosely based on Schulmans education at Montgomery Bell Academy, a prepatory school in Nashville, Tennessee. The story is one that many can relate to exploring themes that often occur when growing up. The script is witty and is appropriate for the era and the time the movie was set. It is also appropriate for the ages and background of the characters with the students speaking like teenagers and teachers speaking in more educated manner.

The use of a wide range of different camera angles, the extreme close-ups and the different tones of lighting give the scenes a more dramatic effect. The score, which was written by Maurice Jarre sets the mood for the scenes. The music is not too complicated or forceful but its simplicity is what makes the music wonderful and compliments the film so perfectly. In the film contemporary music is sometimes used which helps set the mood of the time.

Robin William seizes the day in Dead Poets Society. He portrays his character the inspirational Mr John Keating with enthusiasm and shows the real extent of this dynamic acting. Neil Perry is smart and popular but is very much under the thumb of his overbearing father who wants him to become a doctor. Neil is played by Robert Sean Leonard who later went on to play a doctor in the 2005 TV series House. Leonard plays Perry with emotion and enthusiasm grabbing the audience and keeping their attention. Ethan Hawke plays Todd Anderson who is shy and quiet. He portrays Anderson well especially in the more emotional scenes when he finally speaks out.

Dead Poets Society deals with most of the themes that occur in any good coming of age film. The main theme is Carpe Diem, seize the day. Mr Keating encourages his class to seize the day and make their life extraordinary. The boys, especially the members of the Dead Poets Society incorporate this as their motto and use it as their encouragement. Another theme or issue is identity and individuality. Each boy, especially Neil is seeking their own individual persona away from the conformist behaviours of the school, their parents’ wishes and the rest of their peers. Unity is identified when the Dead Poets Society comes together and supports each other and also when the unity is betrayed. Other themes that are explored are sexuality, coming to terms with mortality/death, realism versus idealism, authority versus non-conformity and rebellion.

Even though Dead Poets Society was set 50 years ago every issue and theme is still relevant in growing up today and will stay relevant for years to come. Dead Poets Society is sure to become a classic of our time. I give this a film a rating of four and a half stars out of five. Are you prepared to seize the day and check out Dead Poets Society for yourself?

O Captain my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up--for you the flag is flung for you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and ribboned wreaths for you the shores a-crowding,
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head!
It is some dream that on the deck,
You've fallen cold and dead.

My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchored safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
Exult O shores, and ring O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.



Haha this was my English assignment...we had to do a review for a coming of age movie, pretty good aye :) It's a bit corny and stupid and shit but remember i'm only in Grade 9. I had to do it as an oral presentation. OMG only 9 days of school left for this year :D
