troy movie review
saw troy twice this past weekend! my personal review of the movie: the writing and the direction sucked, but brad pitt's character and hot body totally made up for it! i never saw the big deal about brad pitt before. i mean, he's good-looking and all, but i never was all ga-ga over the man. but then i guess i never really saw him mostly naked for an entire movie. with armor, without armor, with dirt and blood on him right after a brutal battle, or with only a robe on just after making love to briseus, ahhh, what a beautiful man he is. just his shoulders look really good, heck i bet even his elbow looks good!
his awesome character may have had something to do with his beauty as a man too. they really built his character to be very honorable, brave, strong, as well as truly caring and loving for those close to him. he has loyalty and respect for good men, but disdain for those who are just out for power and glory. in turn, his men are also loyal and respectful to him. all of these character traits contributed to his overall beauty, in addition to the hottest hard body he had. did i mention that already?
the fighting choreography was really good too. but like i said, the direction rather sucked cuz it was too up close most of the time and you couldn't see who was killing who.
there were good lines though. my favorite:
It is not an insult to call a dead man dead.
~Odysseus
there was a preview for the day after tomorrow and we were talking about it after the movie.
art: i totally wanna see "the day after yesterday"!
me: you mean today?
everyone laughs
me: hahahah, i wanna see "the day after today"
glenn: you mean tomorrow? hahaha!
it was great seeing an old friend too. we finally exchanged gifts from christmas and for his birthday too. till next movie night, art!

"To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the
greatest hazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks
nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid
suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change,
grow, live, and love."
~unknown
"It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues."
~ Abraham Lincoln
"live a life that others will remember years from now, NOT because it pointed to you but because of how it pointed to the One who made you."
~ Mark Hart, the Bible Geek
"we grow up learning to become self-reliant, but really we need to be God-reliant"
"we could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box"
"never wound hearts that love u, never give them the endless pain, because wounded hearts are like roses that never bloom"
"there comes a time when we have to stop loving someone not because that person has stopped loving us but because we have found out that they'd be happier if we'd let go"
