Phantom of The Cinema





Hantu gentayangan di bioskop
salah satu mal besar Jakarta




Gambar-gambar yang Anda lihat, bukan diambil dari still photo film Phantom of The Opera atau sequel-nya. Setelah direnovasi dan dibuka kembali, ada hantu gentayangan di Plaza Senayan XXI! Maxim sempat memotret bukti-buktinya saat berkunjung ke tempat itu. Tetapi Anda tidak perlu takut. Ternyata hantu-hantu itu hanyalah wrongfully placed gimmick dalam rangka Gala Premiere film Suster Ngesot yang diadakan 8 Mei 2007 lalu.

Ceritanya, saat penonton sedang asik-asiknya menyaksikan film, tahu-tahu sesosok hantu berpakaian putih dan berambut supergondrong merayap di kegelapan. Tidak ada yang menyadari kedatangan hantu pura-pura ini. Tahu-tahu hantu itu mencengkram pergelangan kaki seorang penonton di baris paling bawah. Kontan saja si empunya kaki menjerit-jerit karena terkejut.


Perhatian penonton segera teralihkan dari layar bioskop ke baris terdepan. Hampir semua penonton langsung menyalakan ponselnya untuk melihat apa yang terjadi. Beberapa orang juga tampak menyalakan flash light kamera ponsel. Setelah menyadari bahwa ada hantu pura-pura sedang merangkak-rangkak dari barisan bawah menuju ke atas, semua penonton pun langsung terpingkal-pingkal. Efeknya memang agak kurang matching dengan filmnya yang bergenre horor, tapi cukup efektif karena begitu keluar dari bioskop orang-orang langsung membicarakan gimmick-nya, bukan filmnya.

Platoon


CHRIS TAYLOR:

Day by day I struggle to maintain not only my strength but also my sanity. It's all a blur. I have no energy to write. I don't know what's right or wrong anymore.
PLATOON - Oliver Stone - 1986

BLUE


Keluh kesah gw, ternyata keluh kesah Wulan juga...







I should leave this city right away escaping this exquisite agony. The night is so blue. The boat is waiting. I feel the light is chasing after me. At the small port, the bleak month of the year, so-called derailed life. The blue night and everything suddenly becomes so blue

"Writer's Block" by Just Jack










I get this writer's block, it comes as quite a shock,
And now i'm stuck between a hard place and the biggest rock,
In my own head consumed. I sit back in my room,
Its like the tapestries of life get tangled in the loom,
I'm like a butterfly, caught in a hurricane,
My pulse is quickening as my heart plays a new refrain

Im lovin' Mary Jane, flyin' with Lois Lane,
On board a bullet train
Don't know yet if i'm glad i came
Don't know yet if i'm glad i came
Don't know yet if i'm glad i came
Don't know yet if i'm glad i came

Sometimes at night i think too much,
About life and love and music and stuff

I'm livin' in the past,
My clocks an hour fast,
Should really go and make a coffee but i can't be arsed,
I've lost my mobile phone,
You'll have to call my home,
On second thoughts just leave a message when you hear the tone,
My grimy windows show the early morning glow,
Another day, another dollar in my one man show,

Im lovin' Mary Jane, flyin' with Lois Lane,
On board a bullet train
Don't know yet if i'm glad i came
Don't know yet if i'm glad i came
Don't know yet if i'm glad i came
Don't know yet if i'm glad i came

I fell out with Mary Jane, I don't speak to Lois Lane and i missed that bullet train
But now i know i'm glad i-
I fell out with Mary Jane, I don't speak to Lois Lane and i missed that bullet train
But now i know i'm glad i-
I fell out with Mary Jane, I don't speak to Lois Lane and i missed that bullet train
But now i know i'm glad i-
I fell out with Mary Jane, I don't speak to Lois Lane and i missed that bullet train
But now i know i'm glad i came
But now i know i'm glad i came
But now i know i'm glad i came

Notes: Buset... lagu ini tahu banget rasanya...
