transformers 2 vs darkknight


vs


just watched transformers today and i found it much nicer and interesting compared to the 1st movie... the action and plot was definitely more fascinating not to mention more hot chicks.. XD this is the best movie i've watched for this year... thinking of that i realise those great movies are released in july? @_@ last year was dark knight and this year transformers 2..

so i took some time to analyse both this movies... i rate this 2 movies base on
1. plot
2. action
3. values
4. acting qualities
5. picture quality

lets take a look at transformers... i would say this times success would mainly come from the director.. being able to bring out the excitement from the start of the show til the end... seldom get shows of such kind... plot was pretty good... leading u to understand one thing to another.. i like the fact that even for those that have not watched transformers 1 or seen the cartoon or comic, the director and script writer has done a good job in getting people to understand the whole story... 2nd, the action if just fantastic... u can say almost the entire show is filled with action with some funny parts here and there... 3rd, well i can say one thing in this show that i learned is never give up! at times it may seem so impossible for something to happen, our main star sam, the word 'if' doesnt pop up from this mind, only the word 'can' exist in his dictionary..
4th, bout the acting i would say is pretty normal except that i like the 2 new guys in the show they were really funny! 5th, picture quality wise, just love it when the robots transform and the details put into each robot, especially the decepticons, u can see so much variation and fine details.. great job to transformers! bravo.. myself would rate this show 4.5/5

now lets look at dark knight... it was a hit last year... especially with heath ledgers exceptionally good acting skills... he totally got into the character that it looked as though it was him... mayb that was the reason that cause him to go nuts.. XD 1. talking bout plot, this show is top class.. from the start to the end, surprises just keep popping up, u would never expect the show to move on as u think... thanks to the great joker that really spiced up the entire show... 2. action, well it may be as much as transformers but i would say it is unique in its own way, especially the parts where joker did his crime.. man, he is one crazy guy... 3. values, there is something in this show that really caught my attention. in the end batman shows what a true hero really means.. a true hero doesnt have to be the famous one, does not have to be in the lime light and the focus would always remain to finish his or her duty... just to give some background, batman took the blame for our twoface, or the famous lawyer, harvey dent who put many criminals to jail. if harvey dent were to be found guilty, all that had been put to jail by him will be released.. so instead batman took the blame

from hero


to zero

4. acting skills... no doubt heath ledger's acting skills are top class.. he earned himself best villian for numerous awards... 5. picture quality.. well may not be as detailed and nice as transformer but it doesnt matter.. it is good enough for the show.. for this movie... i give 5/5!
best thing about this show is 1 phrase i guess everyone knows...


verdict: dark knight beats transformers 2!

do share your opinions... we all have different taste on movies! my preference would be more on plot, acting skills and values...

what is your purpose on earth?

Rick Warren author of the “Purpose Driven Life” .He said the prayer during the inaugural ceremony of Barack Obama as President of USA.

Rick Warren

You will enjoy the new insights that Rick Warren has, with his wife now having cancer and him having 'wealth' from the book sales. 'Purpose Driven Life ' author and pastor of Saddleback
Church in California

In the interview by Paul Bradshaw with Rick Warren, Rick said:

People ask me, What is the purpose of life?


And Rick Warren respond:
In a nutshell, life is preparation for eternity. We were not made to last forever, and God wants us to be with Him in Heaven.

One day my heart is going to stop, and that will be the end of my body-- but not the end of me.

I may live 60 to 100 years on earth, but I am going to spend trillions of years in eternity. This is the warm-up act - the dress rehearsal. God wants us to practice on earth what we will do forever in eternity.

We were made by God and for God, and until you figure that out, life isn't going to make sense.

Life is a series of problems: Either you are in one now, you're just coming out of one, or you're getting ready to go into another one.


The reason for this is that God is more interested in your character than your comfort;
God is more interested in making your life holy than He is in making your life happy.

We can be reasonably happy here on earth, but that's not the goal of life.
The goal is to grow in character.


This past year has been the greatest year of my life but also the toughest, with my wife, Kay, getting cancer.
I used to think that life was hills and valleys - you go through a dark time, then you go to the mountaintop, back and forth. I don't believe that anymore.

Rather than life being hills and valleys, I believe that it's kind of like two rails on a railroad track, and at all times you have something good and something bad in your life
.


No matter how good things are in your life, there is always something bad that needs to be worked on.
And no matter how bad things are in your life, there is always something good you can thank God for..

You can focus on your purposes, or you can focus on your problems:
If you focus on your problems, you're going into self-centeredness, which is my problem, my issues, my pain.' But one of the easiest ways to get rid of pain is to get your focus off yourself and onto God and others.

We discovered quickly that in spite of the prayers of hundreds of thousands of people, God was not going to heal Kay or make it easy for her- It has been very difficult for her, and yet God has strengthened her character, given her a ministry of helping other people, given her a testimony, drawn her closer to Him and to people
.

You have to learn to deal with both the good and the bad of life.
Actually, sometimes learning to deal with the good is harder. For instance, this past year, all of a sudden, when the book sold 15 million copies, it made me instantly very wealthy. It also brought a lot of notoriety that I had never had to deal with before. I don't think God gives you money or notoriety for your own ego or for you to live a life of ease..

So I began to ask God what He wanted me to do with this money, notoriety and influence. He gave me two different passages that helped me decide what to do, II Corinthians 9 and Psalm 72.

First,
in spite of all the money coming in, we would not change our lifestyle one bit.. We made no major purchases.

Second
, about midway through last year, I stopped taking a salary from the church.
Third,
we set up foundations to fund an initiative we call The Peace Plan to plant churches, equip leaders, assist the poor, care for the sick, and educate the next generation.

Fourth,
I added up all that the church had paid me in the 24 years since I started the church, and I gave it all back. It was liberating to be able to serve God for free.

We need to ask ourselves: Am I going to live for possessions? Popularity?

Am I going to be driven by pressures? Guilt? Bitterness? Materialism? Or am I going to be driven by God's purposes (for my life)?


When I get up in the morning, I sit on the side of my bed and say, God, if I don't get anything else done today, I want to know You more and love You better. God didn't put me on earth just to fulfill a to-do list.
He's more interested in what I am than what I do.
That's why we're called human beings, not human doings.

Happy moments, PRAISE GOD.

Difficult moments, SEEK GOD.

Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD.

Painful moments, TRUST GOD.

Every moment, THANK GOD.
