Happy Eclipse Day!

Happy Eclipse Day!

This came in just a tad late. It was on July 1st 2010 that the movie opened with a bang.

I fretted over about not getting to book seats one week in advance and my father was kind enough to help me book since he went home early on Wednesday. On another note, Golden Village has really bad customer service, I emailed them and did not get a reply.

Wednesdays are a bane in this semester, classes just have to end early on this day.

Anyway, I got the seats I wanted, I guessed I was not surprised that on Wednesday night, only a small portion of the theater was filled. However, by the next day afternoon, the theater was almost full.

I did not finish re-reading Eclipse despite going home early on Thursday. But, I tried to absorb as much as I could. Then, it was time to go off.

The review will come in later.

Of Clocks & Trailers

Hurrah for me! My countdown clock is finally up!

After much trials, over the weekend, I finally had it up due to sheer luck. There is still something wrong with the sharing of the html code. But, when I was browsing other widgets, I found this one whose code is still intact. I did my own customisation and voila! My countdown clock for Eclipse is out!

I may be changing the picture when I have the time. As much as I like this picture, I don't think the colour theme suits the overall feel for Eclipse the movie. It's way darker than what I have.

And it's just in time to commemorate the showing of Eclipse movie final trailer, which is way awesome!

It's all action in this trailer as compare to the romance in the first. The CGI and special effects are looking real good in the trailer. I love it! All things aside, the 2 minute plus trailer is sufficient for my thirst.

I can't wait to see David Slade's vision of Eclipse! Only hoping that it won't be that creepy, what with all the newborns rising from the waters like zombies.

Countdown for Eclipse

Hooray! Al least I did not let myself down.

Notice the change on the side of the blog. Yes! I finally changed the New Moon Countdown Clock to Eclipse Countdown for USA. It's made by someone though.

I just realised that I have no idea when Eclipse the movie is coming out in Singapore. I went to check it on the net, but, strangely, there isn't any news. Weird... With about 3 more months to go, it is strange news that the release date is not yet out.

I had collected eclipse pictures way before, which is a very good idea as it's hard to find nice eclipse photographs now. I have this one which is very, very lovely. I plan to use it for my own Eclipse countdown clock.

It's hard to make a countdown clock from scratch. I don't have the programme necessary to edit the picture, aka Adobe Photoshop. I now rely on Photobucket and Scrapbook to add words to the pictures. For the clock part, most websites do not allow use of one's pictures to make them, or else, it will cost money.

Last year, I stumbled across a website that would allow me to change another person's background. And voila, I have my first countdown clock to celebrate the release of New Moon. Even till now, I'm still proud of my attempt. Frankly, the picture chosen conveys so much and the tagline is just fantastic.

All I need is inspiration to start on the long journey on making another countdown clock that is up to my standards.
