TRAVEL TO MOVIES: THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY PART-2


Director: Francis Lawrence 
Cast: Jennifer Lawrence , Josh Hutcherson , Liam Hemsworth , Donald Sutherland , Woody Harrelson , Elizabeth Banks , Julianne Moore , Natalie Dormer , Sam Claflin
Plot: Katniss Everdeen now fully realises that the stakes are no longer just for survival, they are for the future. Katniss teams up with some of her closest friends, Gale, Finnick, and Peeta, to confront President Snow that has become obsessed in wanting to destroy Katniss. However, Katniss goes off mission, using the unit from District 13 and risking their lives to stage an assassination attempt on President Snow.


My Movie Review: The movie is not epic I hate to say this but it's really disappointing so little fight scene total let-down from we're expecting. I thought Mockingjay Part-1 was bad going in it's dark phase and Mockingjay Part-2 will lift it up but not so many blackout scene it totally drag it down. It is only a must this series will close it's chapter cause it takes wrong turn. The Hunger Games and Catching Fire were so good that deserves credit doe.
My Favorite Character: Finnick Odair

Finnick Odair was a male victor from District 4. He was known for winning the 65th Hunger Games at the age 14 and was later one of the survivors of the 3rd Quarter Quell. He was the husband of Annie Cresta and father of their son. Finnick died during the second rebellion. While on the mission to President Snow's mansion, the group was attacked by lizard-human muttations. After everyone had made it up from the tunnel; Katniss heard someone yell. She shined the flashlight down and saw Finnick fighting with the mutts. While fighting off the mutts, Finnick's head was bitten off before Katniss could rescue him.

TRAVEL TO PLACES: MACAU THE VENETIAN HOTEL AND CASINO

My Personal Experience: I went to The Venetian Macau last year November 26, 2014, together with my sister and her boyfriend. We went there to check out the retail stores and get some fast-food on the way. In the hotel there was a mask man dress to enchant we took pictures with him. The fun doesn't stop there we went to the casino and play hard.

TRAVEL TO MOVIES: SPECTRE


Director: Sam Mendes
Cast: Daniel Craig , Christoph Waltz , Ralph Fiennes , Dave Bautista , Andrew Scott , Ben Whishaw , Monica Bellucci , Léa Seydoux , Naomie Harris , Jesper Christensen
Plot: While M battles political forces to keep the secret service alive, Bond peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind Spectre. Spectre stands for "Special Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion", a global terrorist organization that plays a major role in the Bond stories.


My Movie Review: The movie is grand delivering a sophisticated style in telling the story without losing it's iconic touch. The first scene in Mexico City was the best Bond opening I've seen as far as I can remember it was festive and lively showing the artistic side of the dead through their make-up masks and costumes. Writing's On The Wall makes it more compelling Sam Smith's voice was so dramatic you will feel the mood rapidly changing. It was a great experience despite of the unlikely turns towards the end it brings possibilities.
My Favorite Lines: "I always knew death would wear a familiar face, but not yours." "You are a kite dancing in a hurricane, Mr. Bond!" "Welcome James, it's been a long time!" "And finally, here we are!" "It was me, James. The author of all your pain!" "Is this really what you want? Living in the shadows? Hunting, being hunted? Always alone? I don't stop to think about it." "So what's going on, James? They say you're finished. And what do you think? I think you're just getting started." "If you don't leave now, we'll die together, Mr.?" "Bond. James Bond."

My Personal Experience: I went to The Venetian Macau last year November 26, 2014, together with my sister and her boyfriend. We went there to see the grand hallway where gold surrounds you in every corner and the ceiling made of incredible artisan paintings. It was a enchanting entrance where you can do was to be amaze and capture the moments.













The Venetian Golden Hallway
It was a grand hallway and all you could see was gold. The way the building was lighted complemented the beauty of the paintings and the murals in the area. The paintings were beautiful and the ambiance was a feast for the eyes. To think this was still the first stop of the day. You will feel like a rich hot shot because your walking along this beautiful hallway.

My Movie Review: The movie is amazing comedy horror filled with spooky fun adventures and surprising twist perfect for young and old audience. Whether your fan of the book series or not I'm sure you'll going to enjoy this movie cause it's spontaneous and never runs out of interesting things to show. I'm not actually familiar with the book series since I don't read much that's why I'm so excited to see this movie monsters pop out to the book.
My Favorite Character: Slappy the Dummy

Slappy the Dummy is a villain in the Goosebumps series. He is the star of the the Night of the Living Dummy saga, and appears in many of the other books, usually as a main character and antagonist of the titular story and series. Slappy is a ventriloquist's dummy that comes to life when the words "Karru Marri Odonna Loma Molonu Karrano" are read aloud. The words are translated to "You and I are one now", and most times are found on a sheet of paper in his jacket pocket.

TRAVEL TO PLACES: MACAU THE VENETIAN ST. MARK'S SQUARE

My Personal Experience: I went to The Venetian Macau last year November 26, 2014, together with my sister and her boyfriend. We went there to see the Shoppes at the St. Mark Square and explore each part of the hotel. We felt the winter vibe seeing the polar bear on top of a block of ice and walking through the stars felt like being on Walk of Fame.













The Venetian St. Mark's Square
Few cities, ancient or modern, can claim such distinctive and historically important icons and constructions in such a relatively small area as can Venice, Italy with its St. Mark’s Square. And the most remarkable and noteworthy sights of Venice - the Bridge of Sighs, the Campanile Tower, the Rialto Bridge, the Doge’s Palace are replete with intricate and fascinating details that tell the proud story of this ancient site of art, learning, and trade.

My Movie Review: The movie is majestic despite of the flaws and weird set-up still worth your time. The Last Witch Hunter may get sequel to build up what's lacking in this movie that excites not too literal. Supernatural adventure set in modern day is one of my favorite genre that's why I'm tough in critiquing them I expected more than the usual. But there some parts that amazes me like the magic spells and how fun to see witches getting killed.
My Favorite Character: Witch Queen

The Witch Queen is the main antagonist of the 2015 supernatural action film The Last Witch Hunter. She was the absolute ruler of the witches who cursed the warrior Kaulder with immortality before seemingly being defeated. She is portrayed by Julie Engelbrecht. Years later, the 36th Dolan was going to retire from the Axe and Cross, but he was found in a comatose state. It was revealed that a shape-shifter by the name of Ellic was cursed him and that was apart of a bigger conspiracy that aspired to resurrect the Witch Queen.

TRAVEL TO PLACES: MACAU THE VENETIAN GONDOLA RIVER

My Personal Experience: I went to The Venetian Macau last year November 26, 2014, together with my sister and her boyfriend. We went there to spend my sister 25th birthday and to see what's inside at The Venetian Macau. We saw the Gondola River along the way takes us to European Quest especially when we cross the bridge on the grand canal.

The Venetian Gondola River
A trip to the Venetian Macao would not be complete without a romantic ride in an authentic gondola down the canals of the Shoppes at the Venetian. A gondolier will serenade you during your romantic ride through the San Luca, Marco Polo or Grand Canals of Shoppes at the Venetian. Take home a souvenir photograph to remember your wonderful experience.

TRAVEL TO MOVIES: KNOCK KNOCK


Director: Eli Roth
Cast: Keanu Reeves , Lorenza Izzo , Ana de Armas ,  Ignacia Allamand , Aaron Burns
Plot: A horror film that follows Evan Webber, a happily married man with a loving family, whose life one day turned upside down when he was home alone and opened the door to a pair of havoc-wreaking femme fatale.


My Movie Review: The movie is crazy wild even if I don't get why girls do things what they done it's fun to watch. The concept of women in control is becoming a trend on movies don't mess up cause their unpredictable. Knock Knock is about dangerous femme fatale who temp helpless men to have sex and once trap do punishment to teach them lesson. Of course men will fall on the bait I don't agree what this girls are fighting for it's pointless.
My Favorite Lines: "Death? Death? You're gonna kill me? You're gonna freaking kill me? Why? WHY?  You came to MY house! You came to ME! I got you a car, I brought you your clothes, you took a BUBBLE BATH! You wanted it! You wanted it! You came on to me! What was I supposed to do? It was FREE PIZZA! It just shows up at my door! What am I supposed to do? "We're flight attendants. Come on, No one will know." Oh, twosomes, threesomes. It doesn't matter! Starfish! Husbands! Well, you lied to me, I tried to help you! I let you in, I was a good guy, I'm a good father! What? Now, you're gonna kill me? You're gonna kill me? Why? Why? 'Cause you do me? Where's the food, this is freaking insane!"

TRAVEL TO PLACES: MACAU THE VENETIAN SKY ART

My Personal Experience: I went to The Venetian Macau last year November 26, 2014, together with my sister and her boyfriend. We went there to spend one day to Macau and this was our first stop since going out to the ferry boat. We saw buses going to different sights in Macau until The Venetian bus arrive the first pop to mind how brilliant the sky art.













The Venetian Sky Art
The Sky Art painting for The Venetian Cotai in Macau provides 252,000 square feet of spectacular overhead ambiance for 14 themed areas circulating throughout the Grande Canal Shoppes. Venetian architecture, crowned by a replication of St. Mark's Square, enchances the shopping mall design over which the sky ceiling predominates.
