Fuck me but the fight scenes in TYG were freakin' awesome. Can't say the same for its plot, but nobody really cares jack once you've read the sypnosis anyway. Tony Jaa's quest to save 2 elephants from a smuggling ring in Australia run by Orientals with a harem of insanely powerful henchmen? And not a single one is armed?? Gimme a fuckin' break.
The verdict? Cut the story out, flash big headings across the screen with each scene change (think "ROUND ONE: FIGHT!" & "BOSS!!!"), and you've pretty much got an awesome movie - Bone-Breaking 101 For Dummies. Or an award-winning tv advert for Anlene Hi-Calcium Milk.
Whatever.
Nevertheless, it remains jolly good I say. We need more wicked sick movies which live up to expectations these days...
... Unlike Doom. Doom was a fucking horrendous letdown, for cryin' out loud! Rather than superimposing some Resident Evil-wannabe plot (deadly virus mutates people into zombies OMFG THATS SO ORIGINAL), they really should've stayed true and had all 'em satanic bastard-demons from hell.. by the truckloads, if need be.
Also, the first-person shooter scene is terribly nauseating and completely ridiculous. Director Andrzej Bartkowiak obviously possesses the misconception that video game players are absolute fucktards, because this segment was obviously intended to sate our thirst for some 'real' Doom action.
Fucker Bart-Koyak. To quote an absolutely brilliant line from jole
F U C K Y O U
Doom was the first ever computer game I surrendered my allowance for, and boy did it piss me off that I didn't even get to see massive firefights of any sort. Or a freaking horned demon for that matter. Weak weak WEAK FUCKYOU ITS FUCKING WEAK!! I felt like typing an imaginary "noclip" in my head and getting the fuck outta the movie, especially after the grand finale which DIDN'T EVEN INVOLVE GUNS AT ALL.
Time to sleep. And yeah, I think all that nonsense about toilets is just that - utter fucking nonsense. In fact, I defer to Maddox (bestpageintheuniverse, you-know-who) with regards to such idiots and their idiotic terminologies; the Singaporean Blogosphere, for instance.
Aiya, fuck la, don't give fuck all for this shit. You like to read, you read; write in newspaper FOR FUCK? Makes everything less private and gets people arrested. Stupid chee bai.

sid: well... surely the news hasn't degenerated to the stage of flaming for readership.
then again... heh.
eh u watched the two movies i wanted to watch which surprisingly no one else seemed keen to watch, i guess u jus confirmed why heh. damned i was hoping doom would be good. old skool shite like wolfenstein or something man.
