Horton

Let me tell you this. If you can’t take lameness and heartwarming kiddyness then I’m sorry, please don’t watch this.

This is really one hell of a show. Did you know that in the story by Dr. Seuss, it is known as “Horton Hears A Who”? Let the sypnosis tell you why. Here it is : This is a story of two worlds. One LARGE and one very very small. It all begins with a little speck of dust. When a cataclysmic event causes this speck of dust to become displaced, it is sent floating through the air. Horton the elephant is enjoying life in the Jungle of Nool when he notices the speck and hears what sounds like a tiny voice calling for help. Horton tries to show his neighbours… but no one else can hear it, and they don’t believe him. Horton is convinced that there’s a world living on that piece of dust, and it needs his help. We quickly learn that Horton is right. Living on the speck is a population of ‘Who’s’ who live in Whoville. When Horton connects with the Mayor, the Who’s soon learn that their entire world is vulnerable to destruction, and Horton is their only hope. Together, the Mayor and Horton need to work together to save Whoville.

Now do you get it about Who? Alright, on with the review.

Horton, played by all time comedian great Jim Carrey, did an excellent job on the voice and also in bringing out the life of the character in the show. His voice, as humourous as it is before, never fails to make me laugh, especially when those weird and funny noise comes blurting out of his mouth. And there’s his Almighty sidekick Steve Carrell, whom plays the Mayor of Whoville. Steve Carrell carried his role really well, like watching Evan Almighty. The other thing I loved about the movie is the narration. It’s just so poetic and rhythmic that it goes with the flow of the movie and plot.

The storyline is very simple but predictable. And it will definitely be easy on the kids. Like a kindergarten tale, this movie is so colourful that even dark seems rather bright. Feels like you are back in kindergarten seriously. If you are really in need to have a laugh and also for some lameness in life, do catch this show. It’s seriously cute as well, although in everyone’s knowledge that Dr. Seuss’s characters are rather odd and unusual. But nonetheless, it’s such a fun show to catch, I laughed at every sight of that elephant really. Nothing much memorable of any character though. But the scenes are pretty interesting and catchy. Haha.

In overall, just go catch this movie. If you think it’s just a normal cartoon, then go ahead on the weekdays. Won’t kill. It’s cheaper though. LOL.

Yet another Uninspirational Post.

Out of ideas. Out of luck. Out of work.

Yes, I’m currently jobless now and don’t intend to work till 9th of April is over. As I’m typing yet another long but then not so sophisticated topic, I can let you know how it feels to be inspiration. Less.

As per norm, I will start to press on that power button to power up my computer. While doing a short wait on the start-up, I will walk to the kitchen, get myself a cup of water, then make my way back, comfortably adjusting myself on the free chair that I got from the Furniture Fair. And as I stared right into the monitor screen, with a wallpaper of my friends and I, I waited for the computer to start up the AVG update. Then that blue screen (Windows Live Messenger) appears. Like a rat embracing the sun rays that shine upon it’s filth. Why? Because WLM is like being used everyday, making it widely used. Commercialised. Dirty.

After that rat rose, I will then click on that how-many-mail-you’ve-got button and started deleting my junk and some Friendster or Facebook reminders. As I start to select the mails that I have deemed readable, people will start messaging me on WLM and says Hi or Hello on the window. Now, here comes the multitasking part. Will reply one or 2 liners and then start checking my mail again and this stint will continue till that bugger doesn’t talk to me anymore. Lol. After closing my Internet Explorer from checking my mail, I will then switch my browser to Firefox to surf the others. So I will definitely head to Bookmarks (Because I’m all too lazy to type all the webbies) and click on my folder, oh so specially named as Marcus. Searching the contents, I will start clicking on Facebook, Friendster, Fantasy Premier League, Soccernet and then…. WordPress.

Yes, logging into wordpress nowsadays is rather depressing. Not that I hate wordpress, but seriously, when I start to click on the “write” tab, I looked at that Post column, with the B and I and ABC, my mind will then shut down and wonder what to type. That is when I start to look around, talk to my brother, walk out of the living room, surf the web and didn’t really bother about the post. This is really how Uninspirational I can get.

Seriously, this post is deemed unreadable because the fact is that it really explains how my boring life began before the post starts. But every time I will start to type, I feel satisfied because I manage to finish a composition. And yes, I hate composition when it comes to writing instead of typing. How conventional huh. But that’s secondary school. Textbook style. And now, as technology takes the leash, we humans just tag along and get accustomed to it. So if robots appear, do we go Cyborg? Who knows. Haha.

Alright, I’m out of my uninspirational post. This is also another uninspirational ending. =)
