Gilmore Girls - Säsong 3 (2002-2003)



Trillians reflektion:
Säsong 3 är till och med bättre än säsong 1 och 2. Finns några riktigt riktigt bra avsnitt den här säsongen. Hur många dagar tog det mig att se säsong 3? Fem dgr om jag inte minns fel. Nedan följer en avsnittsguide som vanligt. Allt snott från imdb som vanligt.

Säsong 3 (2002-2003)
Avsnittsguide:
1 -Those Lazy-Hazy-Crazy Days - Rory returns from Washington just in time for the First Annual Stars Hollow End of Summer Madness Festival where she realizes her feelings for Jess might be a lot stronger then she thought, but is it too late to do anything about it?

Zozo (drama 2005)


Originaltitel:Zozo
Release: DVD 2006-04-26 Bio 2005-09-02
Regi: Josef Fares
Manus: Josef Fares
Skådespelare: Elias Gergi, Yasmine Awad, Imad Creidi
Språk: Arabiska, Svenska
Biopremiär: 2 september 2005
DVD-premiär: 26 april 2006

Handling:
Zozo växer upp i Beirut. Trots det pågående inbördeskriget lever han ett normalt liv med skola och kompisar. En dag inträffar katastrofen och Zozo skiljs från sin familj, han måste nu ensam ta sig vidare i livet. Hans enda utväg är att försöka ta sig till Sverige - ett för honom helt okänt land. Efter de framgångsrika komedierna Jalla! Jalla! och Kopps kommer nu Zozo, en betydligt mer dramatisk och emotionellt laddad historia; dock berättad med Josef Fares sinne för humor och visuella stil.

Trillians reflektion:
Jag tyckte om den här filmen. Kanske inte jordens bästa skådisar men vad gör det när handlingen var underbar. En delvis självbiografi av Josef Fares som själv kallades för Zozo när han som liten bodde i Beirut. Gripande berättelse om filmens Zozo som förlorar sin familj och sen på egen hand ska ta sig till Sverige och sina farföräldrar. Gillade dock mest scenerna i Beirut även om jag tyckte om vänskapen som han sen hittade i Sverige.

The Mutant Chronicles (Action och äventyr 2008)


Mutant Chronicles
Director: Simon Hunter
Writer: Philip Eisner
Release Date: 7 August 2008 (Sverige DVD 18 feb 2009)

Från baksidan:
I en apokalyptisk framtid tvingas de ständigt krigande imperierna enas mot en ny övermäktig fiende: Mutanterna – odöda varelser som förintar allt i sin väg. Mänsklighetens enda hopp är en grupp krigare som beger sig ner i underjorden för att möta ondskan ansikte mot ansikte.

Trillians reflektion:
Vilken fantastiskt dålig film. Tur att det inte var jag som valde filmen. Nu kan jag istället häckla mannen i huset av det fantastiska valet. Den var osmaklig. Varför så mycket splatter och blod? Vad fyller det för syfte egentligen? Det enda som var snyggt var den mörka tonen i filmningen. Om man nu ska försöka hitta något för den enda stjärnan jag ger för filmen.

Regi: Chris Buck, Ash Brannon.
Manus: Chris Buck, Ash Brannon, Christopher Jenkins, Don Rhymer.
Röster i originalversionen: Shia LaBeouf, Jeff Bridges, Zooey Deschanel, James Woods

Trailer:


Från baksidan:
Följ med pingvinen Cody när han reser från sin hemby Huttersund i Antarktis för att delta i surftävligen Big Z`s minnescup på en exotisk paradisö. På sin resa möter han nya vänner, som den surfgalna Chicken Joe, den modiga livräddaren Lani och Geek - ett gammal övervintrat surfingproffs som lär Cody att den sanna vinnaren inte alltid är den som kommer först i mål.

Trillians reflektion:
Charmig animerad film som jag rekommenderar (även fast jag somnade mitt i). Innan jag somnade så hann jag reflektera över att filmen var snyggt animerad, roliga repliker, hjälte, skurk, kärlek. Vi tittade på den engelska versionen eftersom Tuva ville det (kors i taket, äntligen får man se barnfilm på engelska). Vi skrattade alla tre åt skämten, så den verkar passa både barn och vuxna. Favoritkaraktär: Chicken Joe.

Quotes:
Chicken Joe: Cody. I know he's out here. I can feel it in my nuggets!
-----
Lani Aliikai: Oh, crap! [runs out to save drowning penguin]
Cody Maverick: Oh man, I'm in love.
Arnold: Help me, I'm drowning.
Chicken Joe: What are you standing here next to me for? You should go talk to her.
Cody Maverick: No way, man! I'm not gonna go talk to her.
Chicken Joe: Dude, she's totally into you! She called you crap!

Ocean´s 13 (actionkomedi 2007)


Originaltitel: Ocean´s 13
Release: DVD 2007-10-31 Bio 2007-06-07
Regi: Steven Soderbergh
Manus: David Levien, Brian Koppelman
Skådespelare: Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Matt Damon, Al Pacino, Ellen Barkin, Andy Garcia, Don Cheadle

Från baksidan:
Ännu fräckare. Ännu nervigare. I regi av Steven Soderbergh återförenas George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon med flera i den tredje filmen om grabbarna som rånar med stil. Det är återigen Danny Ocean som håller i taktpinnen, så allt görs med finess. Ingen blir skadad förutom Willy Bank (Al Pacino) – operationens svekfulle ledare i Las Vegas. Ocean och hans gäng slår till mot honom där det gör som mest ont – i plånboken. Öppningskvällen för det nya, snobbiga kasinot The Bank är spelarnas kväll då de för en gångs skull tillåts vinna. Och det är här stöten sätts in så att kasinot snuvas på det eftertraktade Five Diamond-priset. Detta är bara början. Grabbarna planerar nämligen att dessutom råna kasinot. Spelet kan börja!

Trillians reflektion:
Jag älskar såna här filmer. Hämndfilmer tillhör helt klart en av mina favoritkategorier. Kändistätt som i de förra filmerna och nu hade de även lyckats få med Al Pacino som den elaka skurken som skall luras. Roliga och snabba dialoger och det är bäst att man hela tiden håller fokus på filmen för annars missar man viktiga pusselbitar. Sammanfattningsvis ser jag filmen som en modern Robin Hood. De lurar pengar från den rika och ger till de fattiga men på ett mer subtilt sätt.

Antal avsnitt säsong 1: 21 st
Land: USA
Språk: Engelska

Trillians reflektion:
En jättemysig och charmig serie som jag totalt missat tidigare, förutom att jag råkat zappa till nåt avsnitt emellanåt när den gick på tv. Men nu har vi alla på dvd och jag har plöjt säsong 1 på några dagar. Säsong 2 here I come. Serien handlar om Lorelai som är mamma till 16-åriga Rory. Mottot mellan de verkar vara att alltid vara kompisar i först hand och mamma/dotter i andra hand. Serien handlar om kärlek, konflikter och vardagsbekymmer. Det handlar väldigt mycket om Lorelais komplexa förhållande till sin överklassmor, med bråk och missförstånd som följd. Lorelai vill ha så lite som möjligt att göra med sina överklassföräldrar men var tvungen att krypa till korset när Rory kom in på en privatskola som hon alltid önskat. Det visade sig att skolan ville ha skolavgiften i förskott som Lorelai såklart inte hade pengar till. För att hon skulle få låna pengar till privatskolan hade Emily (modern) ett utlimatum, att Lorelai och Rory varje fredag kl 19 kommer och äter middag med föräldrarna. Denna tid är helig och får inte på några villkor brytas. De har underbart rappa kommentarer och jag sitter och småfnissar genom varje avsnitt. I och med den snabba takten på talet i serien så är ett medelmanus för ett avsnitt på 75-80 sidor jämfört med 45-50 sidor för en standard timslång tv-serie och det märks verkligen. Käften går i ett på alla. Väl därför som jag sitter och fnissar igenom varje avsnitt och jag vill bara ha mer. Jag har blivit addicted. Gilmore girl-addicted. Bara 8 år senare. Ja jag är lite seg.

Quotes:
Rory: Because sometimes you have something you need to say, but you can't because the words won't come out, or you get scared, or you feel stupid. But if you could write a song and sing it, then you could say what needed to say, and it would be beautiful, and people would listen, and you wouldn't make a complete idiot out of yourself. But all of us can't be song writers, so some of us will never get the chance to say what we're thinking, or what we want other people to know that we're thinking, so we'll never get the chance to make things right again ever... So give this guy a license!

Benjamin Buttons otroliga liv (Drama 2008)



Originaltitel: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Release: DVD 2009-06-10 / Bio 2009-01-16
Regi: David Fincher
Manus: Eric Roth
Författare: F. Scott Fitzgerald
Skådespelare: Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett, Elias Koteas, Jason Flemyng, Tilda Swinton


Från baksidan:
”Jag föddes under ovanliga omständigheter.” Så börjar "Benjamin Buttons otroliga liv", som bygger på F. Scott Fitzgeralds novell från 1920-talet om en man som föds åttio år gammal och sedan åldras baklänges. Berättelsen tar sin början i slutet av första världskriget, då Benjamin föds i ett romantiskt New Orleans. Vi får sedan följa honom genom livet – under hans tid till sjöss som gammal man, under bombningarna av Pearl Harbor och då han återvänder hem. "Benjamin Buttons otroliga liv" är en storslagen filmresa i tiden – en stark berättelse om livets glädjeämnen och förgänglighet och om kärlek som går bortom tid och rum.

Min reflektion:
Mysig, feel good, snyftig. Ja jag snyftar ganska lätt. Jag tycker Brad var cool i rollen och jag gillar hur de hade sminkat honom både gammal och ung, väldigt trovärdigt. Sexigast var han såklart runt 40. Gillade även den ganska sorgsna handlingen. Har själv pratat om att det är precis såhär man ska leva, men efter att jag sett filmen så vill jag nog inte leva mitt liv baklänges längre. I övrigt så var det snyggt filmat, snygga miljöer, snygga kläder, snygga skådisar.
