Angels and Demons











The Ambigrams are cool right?!?!
I watched Angels and Demons yesterday.
I watched it twice, haha...
'Cos I don't understand it the first time which is in chinese subtitle.
Plus, many word are Latin and they talk quite fast.

They changed some parts of the story:

  • Vittoria is not mentioned as Leonardo Vetra's adopted daughter, just partner.
  • The fourth pope candidate, Cardinal Baggia, who is branded with 'water' did not die.
  • Cardinal Mortati did not become the pope, I think he became the pope in the book if I did not remember wrongly...
  • They did not mentioned that the late pope is Camerlengo Carlo Ventresca (named Patrick McKenna in the movie) biological father.
  • Hassassin is not killed by Langdon.

The four candidates:

  1. Cardinal Ebner: One of the four Preferiti and a cardinal from Frankfurt, Germany. He is killed by asphyxiation, by means of putting dirt and soil into his mouth.
  2. Cardinal Lamassé: One of the four Preferiti and a cardinal from Paris, France. He is killed by punctures to his lungs, from which he bled to death.
  3. Cardinal Guidera: One of the four Preferiti and a cardinal from Barcelona, Spain. He is incinerated alive.
  4. Cardinal Baggia: One of the four Preferiti and a cardinal from Milan, Italy and the favorite to succeed as the new pope. He was drowned.

The movie is 2 hours plus. The way the four Preferiti dies is really scary. To me, the most painful death is incinerate. He was screaming all the time and it look really painful!!! Actually all methods are also very painful and gruesome. The props and costume are nice. I like the costume worn by Patrick!!! :D It is shiny and super straight. Haha...

Fruits Basket




Fruits Basket follows the life of high-school student Tohru Honda, who was recently orphaned when her mother, died in a car accident. After that, Tohru lived with her grandfather, but when his house needs remodeling, Tohru resorts to living in a tent in a forest and holds down a job to support herself. Despite suffering many hardships, Tohru remains optimistic.

One day, Tohru comes upon a house in the forest that is the home of her classmate Yuki Sohma and his cousin Shigure Sohma. When the Sohmas discover that Tohru is living in a tent, they are quite surprised by her inner strength. The entire area is Sohma property, and Tohru asks to be allowed to stay in her tent, but then collapses because of a fever brought on by working too hard. A landslide buries her tent, including her mother's picture and school clothes, and she moves into Shigure's house for the night. Desperate for a break from the filth of the house and takeaway meals, she is asked to become a permanent guest in the house, if she cooks and cleans. She accepts, and is being shown her room by Yuki when Kyo Sohma bursts in (through the roof) to challenge Yuki.

Tohru discovers the Sohma family's secret, and the reason why Yuki is so private and secretive at school: thirteen members of the family are possessed by the 12 animal spirits of the Chinese Zodiac plus the spirit of the cat who was, according to legend, left out of the Zodiac. They transform into animals when hugged by the opposite sex or when put under a great deal of emotional or physical stress (such as being sick). When she promises to keep their secret, the Sohmas allow Tohru to keep her memories rather than hypnotically erasing them, a fate that had previously befallen anyone not "Inside" the Sohma family who had discovered the secret.
The story follows the lives of Tohru and the Sohma family, as they deal with each other and a society where neither quite fits in, as well as the feared Akito Sohma, head of the Sohma family. Soon, after living with the Sohma family she began to like, then love, all of the Sohmas, and sets out to break the zodiac curse. [Adapted from wikipedia]

Hatori - Dragon [is a seahorse in the show]
Ayame - Snake
Shigure - Dog
Kagura - Piggy! [ My zodiac :) ]
Yuki - Rat
Kyo - Cat
Ritsu - Monkey
Hatsuharu - Ox [is a cow in the show]
Momiji - Rabbit
Kisa - Tiger
Hiro - Sheep
*Chicken and horse is not in the anime.

The manga is quite long so I did not read, hehe...
But the anime is not very clear.
I still don't really understand more about the curse when they keep on saying how scary the curse is.
Plus, I still don't know Akito's role, except that he has to bear all the curse which I too not understand.
However, I still like it! :D

P.S. This is the first anime that I watched (the whole series, I mean. Usually stops halfway haha ^_^)
