Lady in the Water


Fairy tales, bedtime stories, legends, we all heard and read about it when we were children. As we grow older, we lose interest and do not believe in the fictional world anymore. Our imaginations die as we age. After watching Lady in the Water, it brings back the memories of the fairy tales, the fictional and magical stories we read as a child. It reminded me of the times when I was a child, where I played with toys and made them come to life in my imaginary mind. It made me feel alive again and wanting more. It makes you want to pick up a fantasy book and start reading again.

Lady in the Water is a movie with comprising elements that will make it different from many of the movies out there. The story is mysterious and keeps you in your seat throughout the whole film. There was never a dull moment. Like M. Night Shyamalan's other movies, it is very baffling, and it draws the audience in. It’s not as spectacular as his well-known movie “The Sixth Sense,” but based on my observation, I think it is a movie everyone should at least watch once. I give it 7 out of 10. Watch it and tell me what you think.

Frustrated Finding Something???

Were you ever frustrated at finding something you wanted to buy? Well, I have...Nintendo Wii Remote Controllers. First off, Nintendo is smart in the marketing department, selling a controller that requires two different components. The stupid thing is that why don't they sell the product in one set at the price of $59.99, instead of selling one item at $19.99
(Wii Nunchaku)
and the other item $39.99 (Wii Remote). I have never had so much trouble finding a product, but this thing is out of stock everywhere. I called like every place around my area and found the Wii Remote after X number of days. But the dumb thing is I would assume the shipment of remote would be equivalent to the number of Nunchaku. I guess not, because the shipment of remote came in, and I picked one up at Gamestop, but there was no shipment of Nunchaku with the Remote, so disappointing. Another thing, workers at the store should not give false information of having it in stock because I called Target, and the employee said that it was in stock. When I arrived, he checked the back and there was none. Such an ass, waste of my time and gas. This not only happened once, but twice. I called Circuit City and the same thing happens. Well, good luck to all who is looking for things to buy this Christmas.
