FINISHED It started with a kiss

Finally finished It started with a kiss!!!!! hahaha I had a few laughs but a lot of cries too!!!

I always have the tendency to skip the boring bits and go into the interesting part of the story which involves the family and the 2 main characters. Not the company!!!!

Here is my own somewhat broken synopsis and my deep thoughts:

The main guy character of the story is Joe Cheng; playing 值樹 (Zhi Shu).
The main girl character of the story is Ariel Lin; playing 湘琴 （Xiang Qing)。

I personally think that the reason why there are so many heartbreaks and misunderstandings is because 值樹 can't come into grips with his feelings or how his decisions really affect others. Even though this guy is a genius, many people would know how to relate to him at some point or another. We concentrate too hard on something or we become selfish. In the end, we don't realise what it really is to be loved by someone or to care for someone.

There are always different methods to deal with something. For example (and I hope that my best friends read this but I doubt it), I really use my anger and direct scolding when I really really really care about someone and that I am really close to them.

It is not to say that those who are do not get direct scolding from me aren't close to me. But to have best friends means to have those that will really tolerate you and will understand where you are coming from. I am a musician. Someone pointed out very very quickly that musicians are emotional. Yes they are, you are right. I have never associated the two for a long time.

ANYWAY!!!!!
湘琴 is a really stupid girl and doesn't have the heart to focus on her studies. However, she does have a heart for the people and cares for them endearingly. Terribly in love with the genius, she tries so hard to win his heart. Her ideology and values in life use firmly planted on the ground. She has a strong impression on opening up the "books" again and reviewing it from another angle. This can influence other people's thinking.

In a way, I was putting myself in her shoes and situations. I ended up crying A LOT hahaha.
湘琴 really does persevere in the things that she really wants without giving up when things doesn't come her way. I want to try try and try without giving up. Giving your last SIGH is really giving up upon yourself and I absolutely hate that!! You can give yourself a very big CRY to let everything go but you cannot give yourself a big SIGH.


HAHAHA during thet course of the drama, there were some really really funny parts involving both 湘琴 and 值樹 families. Both are loving, warming & encouraging. The music describes the moods so well! Not only that but the lyrics and the music represents the character or represents the particular scene - sung by Chinese pop stars. I LOVE THE "TING JIAN" (聽見） song sung by Fang Ya Xian!!!

AHHH!!! hahaah going crazy over the music. In any case, Ariel Lin sang the main theme 惡作劇。

TO be honest, you really need to know how the drama's atmosphere will progress. You need to watch a few episodes to see if it is in your favour. I was a little skeptical at first because I felt that it dragged the story. However, most of it was to develop the characters, their feelings, chances and disappointments. I know that if I watched it once a week on tv, I would appreciate it a lot and can't stop talking about it haha.

And among the many assignments and work that I have yet to do!!! And work to catch up on because I have been sick!






OK!! Here I am to talk about Casshern as it is long overdue! haha here is my own overview and short-detailed synopsis. If you prefer not to read certain bits but wait until you get hold of the movie, I will let you know (by headings)! Click on the pictures for larger images.

Thematic Story

The story centralises on a theme that you can distinguish quite well in the beginning. It is war. This movie takes on a science-fiction genre. However, the sole purpose is to depict controversial issues between mankind and the types of sufferings that envelops humans which then turns these sufferings into uncontrollable situations (hope I didn't give too much away, but I just think that it really is something that everyone needs to understand from our own perspective).

Conflicts

In the movie, most of the fighting involves 2 parties. But most of the time, it is the differences from how one thinks that can separate what is right and what is wrong. There is plenty of conflict but most of the issues just cannot be resolved because one does not choose to let it go.

My Application

Mankind is trying to improve lives, develop medicinal treatments to save lives and while we have hardworking doctors as such, we still live in a world full of wars, hatred and endless fighting. Doesn't it hurt?? To know that 2 things such as this contradict each other?

This story really was quite sad for me (well yes because I am pretty much emotional!) and these are one of the movies where you definitely need to watch everything from the beginning to the end to understand the full length of the story.

Special Effects

Firstly, I have to give credit for the way that the film is shot. It is done with 3D characters (meaning people) on a green/blue screen. IN actual fact, before I watched the movie but have seen the preview several times, I honestly thought that the whole movie was 3D and that the Japanese really have taken 3D imaging to the next level. The characters were so real!!! haha but real people play the roles of this fantastic movie.

Cinematography

I like all the lights!!!! The use of lighting is fabulous and I really do think that this movie depict it superbly. Action-packed fighting! Though most of the times, there are guns to still keep within the boundaries of war. I like this director as he doesn't want to stray too much away from the reality of this world yet keeping the futuristic science-fiction story alive.

Personal thoughts

For my brothers personally, they absolutely hate it because they want more answers to the story. What happened to this and why was it like that....where did it come from???? I am like....er.....I look at this movie from a bigger picture and even though some events are unexplainable, I focus on what the director is trying to convey from within the story.

Stop being so literal...rarrr! But anyway, if you want to understand this movie, you need to read this on a larger scale. Or else, this may not be the movie for you. In the end, it is a really moving movie and I wish that more movie directors are able to breach more into such issues that will hopefully not upset a wider audience. But, the audience would still understand the very meaning of it and practice healthier choices.

Current Mood: Convincing and Conniving mode haha
