Wheeeee I finally watched The Dark Knight Rises! And in the cinema no less! Talk about being excited (!!). Heeeee!
Whoa...too may exclamation marks, need to chill out a little.
Anyways, yesterday (Saturday) husband took me to watch Batman. First cinema experience in Glasgow and it was kinda awesome. The seats were damn huge, something like Gold Class back in Malaysia. It's two seaters and in the middle there's a small bench-like-thingy to put your drinks or whatever. We didn't have anything since we were fasting but oh Gooooooood, the smell of the popcorn was so so menusuk hidung and mengacau jiwa! Tapi we were fasting so; big, fat cannot eat. Another tiny detail about the popcorn smell, it smelled like the fancy Garret's popcorn. Hmmmmmmm. The next time we are going to the cinema, it has to be once Ramadhan is over! ;)
Anyways, the cinema was actually pretty damn near to husband's uni. Super convenient, but super unfair because husband gets student rates (6GBP) and me (8GBP). It sort of makes me want to be a student again. Haih. I also finally took the camera out and took some random photos while we were walking to the cinema.
The super striking flowers in front of the GU English Lit Faculty. No pictures of the faculty though, but it's soooo pretty. I will have to make sure to snap some pics of the faculty next time.
Husband leading the way, which turned out to be the wrong way! Thankfully though, it wasn't raining at that time. It was predicted to rain off and on through out the afternoon.
When I turned this is what I saw. Kinda breathtaking isn't it. Somehow, when I am not expecting to be blown away, the city of Glasgow manages to take my breath away. But only when it's sunny!
Okay I know the picture below is a bit out of focus, but check out the sign that says 'Nude'! Hahahahaha. I was cracking up when I saw that and I told husband, 'I wanted to watch Batman la, not Boobies!' And the cinema is actually just a few doors away! I got a shock when we stopped there. Muat ke? The box office was actually really small. But the cinema was big! Smelled like raw ikan masin, but methinks that it was caused by the leather seats.
So anyways, about Batman; it was kinda predictable. And holy shit, that eye wart on the right side of Christian Bale's face NEEDS TO GO! It is so so so extremely distracting that when they closed up on his face, that was the only thing I was focusing on. But at the end of the day, it was a good summer blockbuster and it was fantastic closure for the whole Batman trilogy. Oh and if you're wondering what husband's thoughts on the movie was; he slept halfway through it. Yeah, real party animal that one!
On that note; Goodnight Scotland, Good morning Malaysia!
