dae 2: still surviving...

ok forgetting what i said about not blogging todae, i decided to..coz..i dunno..jus because..

anywayz i've decided to change my blog skin..coz this one's quite dull..and boring..so im gonna change to a brighter/happier/less dull skin! ok im going to find a really nice one now..wait before that i'll just comment on lemony snicket's a series of unfortunate events......

ok the movie's about these 3 children (the Baudelaire children - Violet, Klaus, and Sunny) whose parents died in a fire in the house while they were at the beach or something..so the cause of the fire was unknown..then the 3 children were sent to live with their "closest relative"; Count Olaf. He's an eccentric guy who adopted them because he wanted the Baudelaire fortune (their home was a mansion of some sort..so i guess they were reasonably rich..). oh yeah btw violet is a BRILLIANT inventor (and i mean BRILLIANT), klaus is an avid reader and remembers everything he reads, and sunny is an infant but can bite like almost everything. but then events happened then the children complained about the Count or something along that line (one of which is he parked the car with the children inside on a train track with the train coming, hoping they would get squashed so he could get their family's fortune), so they were sent to live with uncle monty, this guy whos nuts over snakes and toads and creepy stuff like that..haha..so then he wanted to bring them to peru the next day..for some reason i didnt really get..but then the Count came disguised as ths italian guy uncle monty had invited to come help him..(he tied the real guy to the front of a train). then things happened..then uncle monty found out he was the count..then at night olaf went to kill him lah..then frame the snake..!? ok then they were sent to live with aunt josephine, a very paranoid woman (and very grammatical too)..like she told them not to touch the doorknob coz it may shatter into a million pieces and blind her..or dont go near the fridge..coz it may topple over and squash them..stuff like that..then came along count olaf again..then things happened then aunt josephine went to hide in a cave..then the count..dunno wad happened to him lah..then some more things happened..then the house (on the edge of a high cliff overlooking the sea) was hit by a hurricane..then like all the things aunt josephine warned them about (doorknob, fridge...) all came through lah..but then thanks to violet's brilliance they escaped..then went to rescue the aunt..then the count found them again coz the sea leeches attacked their teeny boat..so then the count pretend to save klaus from the leeches..then the mr poe (some person in charge of the children) thought he was ok..so sent them back to live with him..then he found out he can only get the money if he's married or violet is 18..so he went to stage a performance (coz hes an actor?) called the marvelous marriage..then he acted as the groom and violet as the bride..then he got a real justice of the peace to act too..so she was forced to do it coz he locked sunny in a cage then threatened to let her fall to her death if she refused..so they acted..then although seemed like they were acting, it was actually real..so they sign evrythng..then olaf was like very smug and everything in front of the audience..then say they cant do anything to him etc..but then klaus managed to climb up to the tower where sunny was suspended outside of..then freed her..then olaf's stupid accomplice was hanging outside onto the cage when klaus was done with him..then he found this huge magnifying glass shaped like an eye (throughout the story he picked up clues about his parents death and the fire) so he linked that to the clues he found and everything became clear..how olaf used it to set fire on many people's houses..so then he used it to burn the marriage paper thingy olaf was like waving around so no more proof of marriage..then the audience go gang him lah..then he was brought to justice! so then they decided that he should go through everything he made the children suffer (sit in the locked car on a railway track with a train coming, get attacked by leeches in the sea blah blah...) but somehow he managed to vanish....then the baudelaire orphans were sent to another relative's house to stay..but on the way there, they stopped by their old burnt house, then found a letter their parents sent them quite a while ago when they were in Europe with a spyglass (the spyglass had something to do with passing of rites or dunno wad lah..)..then quite touching lah..then they went on..so the end..

thats about it for the movie...had quite a good time...i'd definitely recommend it...haha..ok gtg find a nice new skin now!
