mm… two weeks ago, we went to watch “the sinking of japan”… well, it was between “night at the museum” and “siniking of japan”, but, my point was, if we didn’t watch that day, we’ll still have to ‘arrange’ for another day to watch this show… “night at the museum”, I think, Ben Stiller’s act won’t be restricted in a small little TV box… therefore, we went in for “the sinking of japan”
yep, it’s just another catastrophic show… most of the people will say so, and, mm… from the diplomatic angle, I may say so… but, when I heard this girl behind me, after we came out of the theatre, said “it’s just like Armegaddon”… I had the sacarstic urge to tell her this “B-I-T-C-H”!!!!
yes, it’s another catastrophic show, with heroes, and heroins in there… plus some romance, however, it’s just slightly different from what we normally see… (yes, you can say I’m biased, cos, I love watching japanese shows)
I couldn’t remmeber much of Armegaddon (that doesn’t’ mean that I think the show was bad, just simply, I CAN’T REMEMBER!!)
But I can remember the slight bit about “Deep Impact’, or “The Core”, or “Day after tomorrow” etc….
However, I don’t think, they’re much the same.. cos, mm… “the sinking of japan” was less dramatic in a sense…
Of course the hero died in the end, but, I was relieved, when they didn’t even show all those long bid-goodbye speech or tear-shedding scene when the hero was to die… they didn’t even show the hero died, but we view know……
I actually thought this show is good, and worth-watching… especially with the recent ‘events’ here… and everywhere…
Earthquakes, tsunami, volcanic eruption, all happened in “the sinking of japan”…
And… from a geologist’s (cheh!!) point of view… it’s interesting to watch, and it’s possible to happen… ONE DAY!! (I mean, the sinking, not the stopping)
And… why I want to scold that girl, B-I-T-C-H… haha!! Cos, I like the show very much, and I really would like to know what she’s expecting to see before entering the theatre showing a movie titled “the sinking of japan”… oh, furthermore of her ‘conversation’ with her friends, she was saying “oh!!! All my favourite cities are damaged now!” then, her male friend said, “Ah!! Then you’d better go there quick before they disappeared!!”… @_@ sorry for eavesdropping!!! B-I-M-B-O!!!
Anyway, that was not how I feel about the show… I mean, like her…
I know, it’s a show, and I know, it’s so-called si-fi thriller genre… however, as where we are now, we will not see how a real tsunami, or experience an earthquake, probably in my life, as long as I am here.. (however many many years in the future, when everything is changed and tossed upside down, I wouldn’t know what will happen then!!)
But, when you see that, people, many many people… who’re trying to run for life…
I’ve to say, my feeling was a mixture…
It WAS scary in the show, (or I’m just tooooo indulged in the story and the setting) when you see the vehicles on the road, fell into the crack on the ground suddenly due to the movement of the earth…
It WAS scary, when you see the wave from the supposedly beautiful deep blue sea, suddenly become sky high and coming towards you without mercy… it WAS scary, at least for me…
It WAS hopeless when you see that most of the land was covered with the volcanic ash and you don’t see the blue sky anymore…
It WAS even more scary that, when the people in the authority only planned for their own escape and assuming that, you’ll be one of the dead people eventually and that they do not have to worry if there aren’t enough countries who want to take you as refugees… cos, they don’t have enough space in their country… it was scary, cos, when the people with the power started their plan, you’re already considered dead…
It was scary that, the supposed pride and very beautiful mount fuji will erupt eventually, maybe in the next few minutes… what they wait was only a miracle…
Of course, in the show, miracle did happened in the end…
But, miracle does exist, don’t you think so?????
There’re aren’t many born heroes everywhere, but there’re always people who wants to save somebody they love…
(in the show, the guy decided to ‘sacrifice’ so that, the girl he likes, will be able to fulfill her dream, as a team member from the rescue team, to save people, otherwise, everybody will be doomed… I know it sounds ridiculous or too small the reason to BE A HERO, but then, at least, it works for me!!)
Mixture of feelings is…
I’m glad that, I’m never born in such places, or living in such countries, that I may have to face such a day…
But I’m sad that, there are actually places like this, where those people have to live in a such a fear, day to day…
However… on the other hand… it seems like only people from these places, have grown stronger, better, and stronger… everyday is a blessing to them…
Therefore, I thought, it’s unlucky to be lucky, and it’s lucky to be unlucky…
Lucky cos, we’re faced with less challenge, but then, we loose our spirit (unlucky)… sometimes…
Unlucky cos, we’re faced with more challenges in our living condition, but then, we’ll have stronger fighting and survival power (lucky)…
Then… I think… life is fair!!
