“It started out as a feeling…”

“…which then grew into a hope, which then turned into a quiet thought, which then turned into a quiet word…” — The Call by Regina Spektor

Went to watch The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian yesterday with a bunch of ME1/08 & DT1/08 batchmates–about 20 of us noisily landed in the Sunway Pyramid TGV cinemas… and because we didn’t know our proper seat numbers, ended up taking over all the couple seat rows, hahaha! I tended to be a bit reactive during the movie, but what was funny was that every time I squealed or cheered, everyone thought it was poor, innocent Xiao Wen who was sitting beside me…

As with the first Narnia movie, I loved and enjoyed this one thoroughly. <3 It’s that joy that comes from seeing the characters you read about as children suddenly burst into life on the golden screens just as you remembered them.

Prince Caspian is definitely worth a watch, and probably a few more re-watches. ;D The only complaint about the movie that I have is that they stuck Shrek-like humor in at the WRONG TIMES! Putting a funny scene right in the middle of a solemn one is a horrible thing to do–it just spoilt the moment. DDD: Apart from that, everything else was splendid. Certain parts made me cry, and overall, the movie left me in a happy, dreamy, satisfied mood.

Of course, I expected a younger man for Prince Caspian, but Ben Barnes was sufficiently sweet as eye candy for me to ignore his “oldness” when compared to Georgie Henley, Anna Popplewell, Skandar Keynes, and William Moseley. His on-screen relationship with Anna Popplewell made me happpyyyyyyy~ The chemistry happened from the first moment they met on-screen, and the sparks definitely flew sky-high! I waited the ENTIRE movie for… erm… that. Well done, I’d say. Even though it wasn’t in the book, I didn’t mind it one single bit.

Still, Aslan and Lucy’s dialogues remain my favorite scenes in the movie. Read deep and it makes wonderful sense.

Okay. This man. Ben Barnes, actor for Prince Caspian. Total hawtness. Very very very very VERY good-looking. WAHHHHH!!!!! *fangirls* One of the rare times I find a real-life actor droolworthy. Manliness – check, long sexy hair – check, sexy voice – check, brooding expressions – check, good physique – check, brute strength – check, cheesy corny pickup lines – check… OH PRINCE CASPIAN/BEN BARNES, I LURRRRVEEEEE YOUU. If we had babies, they would be dead sexy. Because of his genes. And awesome–because of mine, haha. And he’s a nice age too (26 years, count ‘em all).

I mean, look at that… He can even look sexy while chilling in normal clothes and cheesily holding up a flag (in a CONVERTIBLE!! ♥). So, Ben Barnes, why don’t you live closer to me, say… in Malaysia? Even Singapore would be cool. Or Thailand. I could have just dropped by easily. Unless you can wait for 2 years, when I leave IMU for (possibly) UK and come find you. :DDDD La la la~

A girl can dream if she wants to. ♥

Sorry, Amanda & Elvyna — he’s mine. ;D
