this movie is awesome!
i was pretty amazed that this film is using a stop-motion method (google it y'all) and it was done superbly!
Combine that with a good story, interesting character, some thriller and voila, best movie so far in 2009.
Have to wait til transformers though for the final judgment. :D

reality check
a while ago my fren posted a note in FB outlining how complicated life is, and has questioned her passion in life. In the heated comments that follows we realize that most of us also have the same issue...
and then the comments just died. it's like waking up from a dream and sucked up into the reality. Is it going to be like that? The passion of wanting to do something more, wanting to live to the fullest, should it just stay in our imagination?
when reality knocks on the door; when study, work, or family become express train that we have to catch, should dream just be dream?
how do we suppose to live this life?

i need more explanation for this
I was reading my bible when i come across the verse on 1 Chronicles 21:1:
"And Satan stood up against Israel and provoked David to number Israel."
I have read this verse couple of times, but this time, somehow i remembered that there was a similar verse that i read some times ago (i read my bible chronogically), and the verse was in
2 Samuel 24:1"
"And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go number Israel and Judah."
So who was the one that tempt David to number the Israelites?
I do some search on google and the result was quite similar to what i was thinking before... It says that God allows Satan to do His bidding, to prove His point to David and all in the while proves that He is a sovereign God.
This is a really hard food for me to digest.
I seriously think that by doing this, God actually free to do everything as He pleases. David may in the end learn his lesson. But it was not happen before thousands of Israelites were smitten by God's plague. As David said, "I have sinned, but what about these sheeps?"
For one purpose of teaching David, God saw fit to sacrifice thousands of lives? How could it be?
Lately, my only pray is that God will reveal Himself to me... Cause truly with this kind of mindset, and with this limited revelation, i seriously considering about the value of my faith.
Does it really worth for me to serve a God like this?
I love Him, seriously, I love God... But with recent experiences, i need more of God, simply more! And i really hope that God will provide me with some more explanation.
On the other hand, I know some thing may best left alone, but why then God reveal the verse which prompts me to think like this? Even more, He know that i'm curious about things and can't leave this kind of things alone.
Some might say it was happen in the old testament where the Law was still being held up. And this is my consolation for the time being, that i live by grace, and no such thing will happen to my life... But i believe that every verse in Bible still applicable today... so how should i react to this?
If you happen to read this and care to share your thoughts, please do so... Any thought is happily accepted :)
