A Dreamer's Hideaway

Hollywoodian visuals and changes aside, it was pretty good. I really liked the fact that the story wasn't about the characters created by Verne, but people who had read the Verne's book.
The acting was terrible, but I wasn't expecting that from this film. I was expecting stunning visuals and a dreamy-yet-dangerous atmosphere.
Some scenes were too over the top though. Like the fight with the carnivorous plants, or one of the first scene inside the cave, the one where the trio falls down for a lot of seconds. But hey! It's just fiction, these things doesn't matter.

I'll always like Journey to the Centre of the Earth, no matter how bad the adaptation will be. It's one of those stories that can make my eyes shine, that can let my imagination run wild. The other story that I know can do this is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Ronald Dahl, ever since it was read for the first time by my Italian teacher back when I was 7, 8 or 9. I can't remember that well. =)

Yep, It's time to update a bit this blog again.
I have new plans. It doesn't matter anymore if people read my blog or not. I will write just for the sake of writing. :) I'll write about a specific topic for each day. Example: Monday - music, Tuesday - life, and so on. I have yet to decide the link between days and topics, so today I'll write about the first thing coming to my mind. Also, if someday there's something I want to write more than other days, I'll ignore the topic of the day and write about it.
So, ok, that's all for now :) Maybe later this day I'll kick off this blog.. for the second time.

Until then, here's a song from Irish Folk band, The High Kings, titled: Rocky Road to Dublin.

Enjoy :)
