故事片名叫地球停止转动的那一天The Day the Earth Stood Still,可是电影完全不是在说这一码事,我可以要求refund吗?如果少了Keanu Reeves和Jennifer Connelly恐怕这部电影要成为一部B级的特技灾难片了。其实会看这部电影主要原因是我想看Keanu Reeves,可是后来看到Jennifer Conelly的时候整个人就是有一种賺到的感觉,当然这种感觉维持的时间不长。
我承認是對武士道精神沒有太多深切的瞭解,所以這部片子敘述的與傳說有多少出入就不知道了。不過除去這部分,電影本身似乎還有一些問題。正在寫這篇影話的時候,我在想當年「藝妓回憶錄」與「最後武士」這兩部片子主要對白是什麼語言。好吧,考慮到是好萊塢製作,所以應該都是英文爲主,日文爲副。可是在這部片子裏,我聽到的日文對白似乎不超過五句(其實真的有嗎?)。
歲末是個人類對時間下的一個很奇怪的註解。說穿了其實這天跟其他日子沒什麼不一樣,只不過是地球公轉太陽一週後回到某一個點。老實說或許這種的周而復始,或許某程度算是象徵世間一切都是個循環。這樣說起來感覺好像有點悲哀,或許人類天生就有種不甘重複的勞碌命吧。於是我們之中好些人視重複爲一種苦差,就不斷的找點新東西做。可是殊不知這從某角度來看,也不過只是另一種形式的重複。
因为尊贵的regina小姐,也就是我的assignment group member病得很频繁,所以常常缺席。常常缺席带来的问题就是,很多discussion做不到(不过见到面说废话多过正经事,不过这很主观,搞不好你会认为我们很正经的谈事情)。上个星期五,我熬夜到清晨七点,然后原本应该睡到10点,结果11点才起身(要睡得时候看到胡叔叔,他更厉害,还没睡)。结果牺牲了上课的时间,还好我的record还很干净,所以缺席一次半次还不会死。可是去到学院才知道regina又病了,还是同学赶着送过去clinic的,紧急状况涅。
Sometimes things makes me wonder why am I taking this “Computer Science” course where it is actually a course to teach you how to write programs. I actually expected something like how computer works in detail not programming in DEF language that is popular in demand in local business market. These few days some incidents or I shall say an article makes me think again whether my decision to take this course is a good decision. The article was recommended by my lecturer who lectures us in a subject/unit named “Internet Programming” which should be renamed as “Writting ASP.NET Websites With C#”. Although I find the unit not as interesting as I expected (because most of the things covered in the syllabus are covered again and again in some other subjects/units I took in previous semesters. It is still an interesting subject anyway, considering we have a better image of the .NET framework.)
