A Series of Unfortunate Events

I went to see the movie Lemony Snickets: A series of Unfortunate events last Friday. It was a choice between this, Hide and Seek with DeNiro and a local movie called Sepet. The others I will watch later, but LM was a lot better than I expected. A sort of Gothic Harry Potter on Acid and based on the first two or three books of the series. I hope there will be a sequel, even the ending credits were different and went on for ages. I may consider looking at the books because the style is good. It had a host of famous stars ranging from Jude law to Timothy Spall, who is probably best known for Brummie Barry from Auf Wiedersehen Pet. The villain character Count Olaf does remind me of a few posturing wannabe actors


Music of the moment : John Foxx – Shifting City

I watched this movie as well, it was really good. It was so dark and funny at the same time. Hoping for the sequel as well.


Are you seriously considering watching SEPET? WHY?

p/s: look like photobucket is working fine so far.
