Gossip Girl

Last saturday, i spent the whole day in front of my laptop, plugged head phone to my ears, and watched all the episodes of “Gossip Girl” season one.

last time i watched it, i said the series is witty, smart and enchanting. this time, i can’t say anything but “Brilliant”

The movie tell the stories about the scandalous lives of Manhattan elites, where an anonymous web owner call herself as “Gossip Girl” claims as the one and only source of the latest news.

Gossip Girl remain anonymous till the end of the series,it used Kristen Bell’s voice and narrated the whole story in the most bubbly, smart and exciting metaphors, i’ve ever read and see.

It’s Serena Van Der Woodsen, the favorite it-girl that back into town after mysteriuosly dissapear for Boarding school last year, her best friend the angelic-face backstabber Bff Blair Waldorf embrace her not-so-genuinely Blair is the daughter of The famous designer Eleanor Waldorf, the privileged girl aren’t really happy since her father left his family for a male model. Dan Humphrey, been dreaming to date Serena for the most of his adolescent life. but he just the average former rock star son who lives in Brooklyn. Dan’s lil sister, Jenny, a social climber that do anything to be accepted to the inner circle.

Nate Archibald, been encouraged by his parent to take a good care of his relationship with Blair, in order to keep the two families together and Parents could happily wins business deals. Nate, loves Blair since they were kids. but, he never really get over Serena.

Chuck Bass, the most interesting charaters in the series, i did say that i always fall for villain? well, it’s include heartless bad boy in every series. His father is a real estate mogul.  His privileged life is so perfect that he could put anything on stake and managed to keep his cold blooded smile. he’s Chuck Bass.

The characters live their crossing lives and have to get thru drama, conflicts, tears and blood.

One thing, if you are a social climber thinking that being a socialite is just about designer dress and being the cover of magazine, keep your eyes wide open when you watch this series. Be the witness that the trust fund babies, work hard to stay on top no matter what the price is, they study like crazy to get in Ivy League, they migle around great people to stay connected and managed to keep smiling and nice after the battle.

I don’t mind to watch it all over again….

You know you’ll love it,

XoXo,

The Dark Knight

Hari Kamis lalu g berkesempatan ngerasain lagi nonton dengan undangan premier. sebelumnya nonton “Cintapuccino”, Indonesian Movie so ada red carpet dan taburan (halah) bintang-bintang muda jelita yang g gak kenal. (bukan mereka kurang terkenal, tapi emang g kurang khatam sama bintang-bintang muda itu, gak kayak adek g!). Waktu itu dapetnya dari Milis Chicklit Indonesia. Undangannya lucu ketika dituker dengan ticket kita dapet goodie bag berisi kaos bertema film CIntapuccino (tulisan di kaos g “I Have Nymonius Kronis Stadium IV” hehehe) g ngantri dengan cueknya, beda sama adek g yang mengenali para bintang sinetron pujaannya (mak, bahasa g, haish)

kali ini kita nonton “The Dark Knight”, Hollywood movie, tentu aja tak ada bintang-bintangnya….ya iyalah…masa ya iya dong. Gak mungkin tah Christian Bale sama Maggie Gyllenhaal berjalan di red carpet PIM XXI dengan dikerubuti para wartawan infotainment local.

so, kita dress-down, heheheh gak ada yang dikecengin gituh….

Undangan premier kali ini g dapet dari Nini Rania Yusof, the Associate VP Distribution & Marketing Star TV (Channel V). I’m a bit surprise that she still remember me, i met her and Tengku Shamel (Manager Content Marketing & Publicity, Channel V) on JIffest 2007. She was picking me up randomly among viewer to be interviewed by Nicholas Saputra. ya…that handsome, tall, lean, slender, good-looking Nicholas. He’s almost perfect, too bad he’s taken….

after the interview, we have a very interesting chit chat, ternyata klik ngobrolnya, narsis pun muncul dengan tak tertahankan sehingga kita foto-foto ditengah keramaian Blitz Megaplex. hiks…malu.

Awal minggu lalu, dia message me thru Facebook, offering the four invitation of course i said yes lah…. hihihihi

well, g ngelantur…… back to last Thursday. sebelumnya g agak2 kmrungsung, karena:

1. G ke salon untuk blow rambut (i said dress down, not looking messy, alrite?) ternyata kelarnya? jam 6.45 sodara-sodara, padahal g janji jemput Dadi di kantornya jam 7. Gatsu – Wolter Monginsidi 15 menit? mungkin aja, tapi g masih pake baju kerja, muka awut2an…o em ji. mesti pulang dulu, jemput Sheilla baru ke Dadi

2. G laper berat! thanks to semua iklan di tv dimana semua wanita langsing, putih dan berambut lurus sehingga perempuan berambut ikal (baca: keriting), bertubuh berisi dan kulit kuning (gak langsat) kayak g jadi merasa tidak pede… gak juga sih, kadang g pede dan merasa bold to fight the beauty stereotype, but that day wasn’t the day. sudah seminggu i’m on diet, dan hari itu sejak pagi cuma minum susu dan makan tiga sendok nasi serta sayuran.  i’m not shallow… i’m just wise enough to know the difference between looking good and feeling good.

3. Jalanan dari kantor Dadi ke PIM lumayan macet e…do…do..ee…. perut g udah konser amal, lemess….

akhirnya sampailah kita di PIM, dan langsung menuju….TaiChan hehehehe

abis makan, ke XXI ketemu Nini dan Shamel, ngobrol-ngobrol dan dikenalin ke orang dari Musica. Namanya Michele, pas ngobrol2 dia cerita kalo dia itu Artist Manager, tepatnya managernya Nidji, Jinx…. muncul lah *drum pelase* Giring heheheh…. kenalan de el el…malem itu g keinget seorang mantan teman yang nge-fans gila ama Giring. Ketika kemudian kita udah duduk di dalem bioskop, pacarku tersayang bisik-bisik: “HUn, kok Giring gak Kribo yah…” o em ji, please deh hun, emang mesti kribo mulu yahh….hihihihihii

setelah chit-chat, kita akhirnya masuk bioskop, yipppiii…. actually i was wondering where is Nico hehehehe…. ternyata pas di dalem dia masuk bersama si model cantik MR, setelah agak gelap gitu. emang rada backstreet kan mereka dari press. anyway, if you find it hard to solve who is MR, i’ll give you clue. They were in a same movie together years ago, this girl was lived in France, she is one of Lux Stars, got it hehehehe

Now, setelah panjang lebar luas dan lapang, here’s my note for the movie! (oh…finally )

Well, The movie exceeded all my expectations, bner deh, Pak Sutradara Christopher Nolan is GREAT! The movie is darker than the previouse sekuels, more twisted, despairing and realistic.

Christian Bale is natural as Bruce Wayne, we can feel the flawed personality that hangs on the balance between righteous and crazy. There’s a constant internal struggle to keep the difference between Wayne and Batman.

While for Heath Ledger, o my God, this late actor is amazing. He’s one of my top reasons of being excited to watch the movie. Years ago he would be best known and remembered as the cowboy in Brokeback Mountain, but not anymore… his performance as Joker is there, at the top, with Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter and Javier Bardem in “No Country for Old Men”

what is a Superhero without the sadistic and Psychotic Villain? Joker is the perfect Nemesis for Batman. He doesn’t do it because he want something out of it, but simply because he loves to do it. The pictures, the scoring (Hans Zimmer gitu loh…remember “The Holiday” kan) and the gadget is awesome. All the great technology and gadgets in the movie is great, stunning and keeps you drooling, yet it doesnt destruct the credibility and realism of the movie. This movie is the greatest movie i saw since “No Country for Old Men”!

nah, reviewnya dikit, aba-abanya panjang hehehhe… don’t be upset… i just wanna keep you in the loop, to be into my experience of the day…yea like that’s important hahahhaha….

anyway….you know you loved me.

XoXo,
