S.P.O.C.K. - Alien Attack



Think of old geology
it is but a theory
what about reality
nobody was there to see
so lets go back in time

60 million years ago
another race, superior to our
foresaw the catastrophy
fled to space and fled the tragedy
now they're here again with a simple claim
Alien attack
they want their planet back
No matter what we say
extermination is their way
we will never stand a chance
to them we are no more than ants
but I want to say, we'll fight them anyway
Alien attack
they want their planet back

Сара с нов дом :)



Сара, кучето-талисман на Пловдивски Университет, се сдоби с нов дом :)
Още едно бодро материалче от телевизията.

Chipmunk in the park :)



Another one from the TV :)

Movies #16

Two days ago I watched "800 Balas" (aka "800 Bullets") - a story about a boy who finds out that his father (who died in an accident years ago) was a stunt man in spaghetti westerns. The boy sets on a quest to find out his grandfather - once also a stuntman, now working in a run-down tourist attraction...

The ending came a little bit WTF, but all in all I enjoyed the movie a lot, and I find it fresh and interestin :)

After the main titles you cannot turn off the DVD anyway ;) Watch them:



And there's also a cool song spaghetti-western song from the movie:

Куче кърми коте :)

След тежък работен ден когато ми е бръмнала главата от простотии, това което ми носи удовлетворение е когато се случи да има материали като този за монтиране :)



Като ми остане време и се сетя ще взема да кача и за гарвана Спиро, кучето Сара и още представители на Пловдивската фауна :)

Animation #17

12.09 - Официална дата за премиерата в България.

(в тоя ред на мисли - Не знам как може да направиш "пред-премиера", след като световната премиера е минала? Сиреч, задържаш изкуствено филма с една седмица, при все че си е преведен, със субтитри, копията са готови... Но както и да е)

Рано в зарана, резервирахме билетчета за първата прожекция в града.
12.00 на обяд с брата и сестрата бяхме в току-що ремонтираното кино "Фламинго"
Брата успя да вземе билети за лица до 16 години не само за него, но и за сестрата, че дори и за мене Добре, че се обръснах за случая, то някак си минах за малолетен :)

Бяхме само ние в залата! Никакви досадници с коментари, щъкащи малки дечица или мляскащи пуканкоядачи... РАЙ!
Скоро светлините угаснаха и се завъртя чисто-новичката лента.... Оу, даааа!

Филмчето - не знам кой и защо не го харесва, но бих казал - на Сърдитко Петко празна му торбата Вместо да търсите кусури и да казвате как филмчето не е това или онова - приемете си го като това, което е и се забавлявайте! Никой не се и стреми да прави нещо с епичните мащаби на Трилогиите.

Clone Wars напълно оправда очакванията ми - свежо и симпатично приключение с любимите ми/ни герои. Нито анимацията е нещо революционно, нито историята е изпълнена с неочаквани обрати и заплетени интриги. Но това не му пречи да е добро развлечение и приятно нововъведение към Сагата.

Особено много смях вкараха дроидите, мисля че вкараха ред нови култови реплики, но да не издавам за който все още не е гледал!



А аз лично с най-голямо удоволствие бих го гледал отново, и нямам търпение да пуснат сериалчето!

След прожекцията дори ни дадоха плакати от киното и ни попитаха харесва ли ни обновената зала.
Да, харесва ни.
Скоро ще ви хареса още повече, като я направим 3-D

SON OF RAMBOW

Въпреки че не е БГ филм, първото с което ми идва на ум да го сравня е "Войната на таралежите". "Son of Rambow" е изключително приятно изживяване, един такъв хем истински, хем по детински наивен... Оставя ти онова приятното топло усещате, и те въща в ония дни, които позабравяш в натовареното си ежедневие, и колкото повече си ги припомняш, толкова повече ти се иска да се върнеш отново там.
Историята на две хлапета, тяхното приятелство и ентусиазма им да си направят свой собствен филм (както подсказва заглавието, вдъхновен от "Рамбо: Първа кръв"). И не, не става изобщо дума за пародия.
“The fact that "Son of Rambow" was so heartwarming is the result of brilliant filmmaking by its creators,”
Sylvester Stallone
Повече няма да издавам. Няма и да пиша ревю или нещо подобно, понеже просто ще е низ от суперлативи. Пък и ака ме зарадва тоя филм, че думи нямам.
Ще ти кажа само ГЛЕДАЙ ГО ...or I'll kill you AND your cat!!!

In The Year 2525



IN THE YEAR 2525
Zagar and Evans

In the year twentyfive
twentyfive if man is still alive

If woman can survive they may find.
In the year thirtyfive thirtyfive
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth tell no lies

Ev'rything you think do and say is in the pill you took today.
In the year fortyfive fortyfive
You ain't gonna need your teeth won't need your eyes

You won't find a thing to chew
nobody's gonna look at you.
In the year fiftyfive fiftyfive your arms are hangin' limp at you side

Your legs got nothin' to do
some machines doin' that for you.
In the year sixtyfive sixtyfive
Ain't gonna need no husband won't need no wife

You'll pick your son
pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long glass tube.
In the year seventyfiveten
If God's a-coming he oughta make it by then

Maybe he'll look around himself and say:
Guess it's time for the judgement day.
In the year eightyfiveten God is gonna shake his mighty head

He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been
Or tear it down and start again.
In the year ninetyfive ninetyfive
I'm kind a wond'rin' if man is gonna be alive

He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothin'.
Now it's been tenthousand years
man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew - now man's reign is through.
But through eternal night the twinkling of starlight
So very far away - maybe it's only yesterday.
In the year twentyfive twentyfive if man is still alive
In the year thirtyfive thirtyfive . . .

The night I wished I was a Terminator.

Yesterday after work I wasn't so tired, but still - I just wanted to go home and rest. Instead of a rest I got some domestic bullshit. It was too much and I wanted some time on my own.

I went out with no idea at all, I just needed to be OUT of there. At this time I had nobody to call and go out with, but at least Minka the dog hear me on the stairs and came with me. We had a walk around the neighbourhood. Then I sat near one of the windows of a shopping mall where the light was good and took out a book, some Bulgarian sci-fi from the early 80s. I read one story and then we continued with our walk. Then I came back to the same place and read another story. Then we continued with our walk... somehow this whole thing reminded me of the night in Prague I spent with Mesut and Gosia. Since I didn't have any dinner I went on the main street and got a sandwitch from one of the fast food places around. Finished it and continued down the street...

The main street, there are bars and discos in the alleys around... I heard shouting, and I see sillhouettes under the light of a street lamp. A man is on the ground, another man, big one, is coming and kicking the hell out of him. I mean, he was kicking this guy's head like it was a football. For a second I hesitate - Should I go on? But still I go. There's another man, trying to reason with the big one, Stop! You'll kill him, look at him, do you want to kill him or what? Yea, I'll kill this stupid sucker! Messing with me, fucking junkie! And there's a woman as well, they say He's not a junkie he'a our colleague, stop, what the hell are you doing? I walk by, I think the big one says something about this other one messing with his wife or something?! I couldn't really hear, my attention was all at the body on the street - poor guy was there uncouscious and there was blood around him. For another second I hesitated - maybe I should interfere? But I didn't. Not that I was scared, just this big one was taller than me, let alone 3 times my size, I'm not exactly huge... What could I do? Reason with him like the othes? Getting kicked around wouldn't help. I continued down the street, but after 5 meters, just enough for the big one not to hear me I diled the police and told them where exactly I am and that there's a fight and one guy's on the ground bleeding. Told them to send and ambulance as well. Walked down the street for another 20 meters, and went back. Expencive cars were parked there, like BMW custom made wheels, and white Hummer with expencive tunning... Cars like this you cannot buy with what you earn with honest labour. At least not around here. Not where I come from. I just know it, some criminal types were around for sure, probably hanging out at some disco... like 1 minute later I was back and the big one was gone. The others were trying to help that kicked-in-the-head guy. One of them was shouting on the phone - I am paying my fucking taxes and I demand an ambulance now, cause there is a man on the ground, bleeding and in need of help RIGHT NOW, not in 5, not in 10 minutes RIGHT NOW and if you dont come immediately I'll come there and sue the crap out of your lazy asses you stupid bitch!!! Private security came, 2 minutes later the police was there. I just stayed and watched, I was interested to see their reaction. People are complaining from the police in general. But on the other hand, pepole are complaining of just about anything. The cops came quickly, but I wonder if they came quick enough. And what would they do wafter they came. The woman told them that some guards or policemen chased the big one down the street and told them what he looked like. the other one was still shouting that he was paying taxes. OK, we're paying taxes as well, right? the guards said. So why dot you calm down and explain what happened? the woman was tellin them that the other one was some drunk psyco, who brawled and attacked for some stupid thing, like bumping into him in the disco or something... Then one of the policemen looked at me and said Is that your dog? Yeah. Why it's not on a leash? Well, it's not exactly MY dog you see, we take care for her at our block of flats and she just follows me... So keep her away from here! and since I didnt want any troubles with them I just walked away with Minka.

I couldnt describe the big guy, except that he was big, short black hair and orange shirt. It was dark and I'm short sighted. I couldn't tell more than what they already knew - kicking the other one in the head, beating the crap out of him... Didnt tell them that I called, but what does it matter?

I wasn't scared. I wasn't excited. I was just curious what would happen with the big one, and if the other one really did nothing to provoke him. I walked away and I thought that I wish I was some Terminator, fucking metal robot - shoot him, beat him, burn him, smash him and he's still functioning. If you damage him too bad he can repair himself later. No feelings, no pain. I wish I was like this, indesctructible. I would go out and beat the crap of just about anybody who deserves it. You mess with him, or with the otheres and you get your ass kicked.

That's anotehr reason why I want to make movies - there you can do whatever you want. Be whoever you want. Give the bad guys what they deserve. Inspire the people who watch the movie.

Then I went back to that lighted place by the shopping mall and continued reading...

Me and my mule...


"I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. Gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize like I know you're going to, I might be able to convince him that you didn't mean nothin' by it..."
