*crackling* M-Maybe...Oh!

A hi, hello and how are ya to those still lurking around my blog...

I know a blog is no good without proper updates, and for that; I'm immensely apologetic to my readership of say... three or so. Har har.


But as they say so commonly;

"If it ain't broke; don't fix it."

And it looks like this is just the start.

Well, the most pressing thing on my mind at the moment is the movie, 500 Days of Summer.

Yeah, yeah, typical romantic comedy stereotypes aside, this movie, challenges the mindsets of realistic views on relationships; that is, that people don't often believe that true love or 'love' for that matter exists...

Just like the opening line, "This is a story about boy meets girl; but you should know upfront, that this is not a love story," summarises oh so eloquently and in the style that those voice-overs can be in these movies, this story begins as at the point in which Tom, (the boy) has reacted quite shockingly to a break-up from his ... err... 'friend', Summer (the girl).

As his sister Rachel asks him, "What went down?" [What happened?], the story begins in the usual fashion, introducing Tom and Summer and how they met initially... through a greeting card company they both worked for.

Zipping in and around through the 500 days that they were in each others lives, the narrative progresses in a nonlinear way, essentially showing major and minor details about how it was developing, then crashed horribly into a pit of flames... (not literally).


What is peculiar about this film, in fact, is exactly what it intends to deal with; that is, the unexpected and off-guarding nature of coincidence. Especially when in terms of finding the person who you'd end up spending the rest of your life with.

Ironically enough, Tom meets a girl competing for a architectural job with him, asking her out for coffee, regardless of who gets the job. She initially starts to say that she's meant to meet someone later, however she agrees anyway.

Tom introduces himself and the girl introduces herself as Autumn.

Thus begins his 1st day with Autumn...


In other news, I'd finished the NFS Live Championship of Need for Speed SHIFT on PC; receiving the much famed hero car, the BMW M3 GT2 (E92)...

Pics will follow later, but for now;

Fly On,
