Penelope : A fairytale like no other on June 24, 2008 @ 8:49 am

When I was in Hong Kong I was bombarded by two movie trailers EVERYWHERE I go (especially on the MTR station ) One being the hyped up sequel of Narnia - Prince Caspian ( HAY BEN BARNES <3 ) and another .. something I did not hear about at all -- Penelope.

I was wholly amused by the trailer initially but something else caught my eyes. The guy is HOT <3 I was truly annoyed at the fact that he looks damned familiar but I can not seem to place his face nor name ( his name was in Chinese. We were afterall in HK ) Emily couldn't help either because English names sounds awfully weird when it's translated to Chinese ( but she had to endure my gushing EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I walk pass the screen showing the trailer XDD )

In the end ( after a day of two in the whole trip tbh ), it was Moona to the rescue. She went : "James McAvoy? He's Mr. Tumnus, y'know. Narnia"

Que me going "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!!!"

Yeah, I'm dumb like that.

Penelope

Movie is so adorable and whimsical. Light hearted and fairytale like, if you are like me who had never really grown up from enjoying stories that you want a happily ever after for, Penelope is a fun movie to watch. ( PS : James McAvoy is HOT. YES, HOT )

 

PS : Watched The Happening by M Night Shamalan last night with Emily and Rachel, the movie left me with the word “WUT!?! Millennium hands and shrimps!” on top of my head halfway through until when the credit rolls. It’s.. lukewarm. Uhm. Yeah, like War of the World, lukewarm. Never really know what’s the fuss was all about. If it’s massive creepy grand scale epidemic/outbreak movies I kinda preferred The Invasion more? And I really need to watch Invasion of the Body Snatchers
