Scarlett Johansson said she wants to go to Iraq to entertain the soldiers. When asked what she’d do, she said she’ll probably just go on stage and “ooze sex appeal”.

How do you intentionally ooze sex appeal?

At any rate, I wish I could say the same thing & not have people throw up. You know something along the lines of:

“I’m not going to prepare for the management meeting, I think I will just sit there & ooze sex appeal”

Somehow though I get the feeling, that will not work. It doesn’t work with hubby when I want to distract him and forget about my credit card bills.

On another note…

We saw the Transformers movie last week and it was all that I dreamed about & more. It wasn’t even violent. pogiBoy was transfixed. Daddy, I think, felt left out because he’d tap either pogiBoy or myself & we’d both tell him to “shush”.

Shia LeBouf was perfectly cast. The action sequences were superb. The animation was SUPER FANTASTIC. And Bay didn’t disappoint die-hard fans like myself, he kept the well-known supporting characters: StarScream and Bumblebee. The 3D look they gave Optimus Prime had me reeling. He’s so… sexy. Did you see how he managed to “spike” one of the Decepticons? That’s the first time I’ve seen my hero become violent. In the 80′s TV version, they fly, drop bombs, chase each other & punch. No mortal combat.

The pouting girl was a distraction. I could almost forgive her skimpy top because at least she wasn’t wearing 5-in stilettos & still be driving tractors!

Some of the dialogues are pretty lame (dumbed down script?) but I’m nit-picking, the film is flawless in its genre. It’s not about Hamlet, it’s about alien life forms morphing into trucks and jets.

I came in ready to be disappointed, not wanting to get my hopes up, but at the end of the film, I wanted to jump up & clap! It was an amazing experience to see my hero on the big screen & doubly-great that my son “digs” it as much as I.

So this film is not just a must see, it’s a must see-again-and-again. I’m waiting for the DVD, or a sequel, or a TV-version?

I love you, Optimus Prime!

    LOL at oozing sex appeal. If only we were as lucky as Scarlett.

    And yup, the Transformers movie was really good! Like you, I usually watch movies expecting to be disappointed, but I was surprised at how much I liked it.

    i saw your pics of Optimus and i had to comment! i loved the movie! i loved the show when i was younger so i looked forward to seeing this flick. i told the hubs for my bday (since we hardly go out anymore), all he had to do was make sure we see this movie and we did! i just wish starscream got more dialogue –and that he look more diff. than megatron cuz they were so similar! can’t wait for soundwave in T2!

    p.s. i would so love to go to the Led Zeppelin reunion concert! i wonder who’ll do bonham’s part?!

    hahaha! oo nga, we humans would have a difficult time pulling that off. only aliens (scarlett, angelina, mga sobrang ganda they cant be humans ) can do something like that.

  4. Heart of Rachel Says:

    Hi Auee. Wow, Scarlett is one confident lady.

    Glad your family enjoyed the Transformers movie. We enjoyed it too especially my son, Yohan. He’s very lucky because he got a lot of Transformers toy on his 4th Birthday.

  5. Bugsybee Says:

    “…ooze sex appeal” … my foot! Like you, I wonder if I can perform better as a teacher if I just go to my classes, unprepared, and “ooze sex appeal”. LOL. So how, indeed, does one “ooze sex appeal”? Pray tell.

  6. auee Says:

    christianne, ay naku if I were Scarlett hehe Nangarap na!

    kat, thanks for visiting. Good thing you got your bday wish. I told hubby I don’t care about Harry Potter anymore, Transformers will do. Thankfully we saw both.
    re: Led, I think it’s the son

    cess, baka tanungin ako ng asawa ko ano ginagawa ko if I try to “ooze” sex appeal hehe

    rachel, she sure is. I’d like to see her follow-thru & check what she actually does. I did read your post about Yohan’s trip to the movies. I asked my sister to find some toys for Kelvin haha

    hi bugsybee, I will let you know when Scarlett does the Iraq tour hehe WATCH this space!

  8. Toe Says:

    Hahaha… that’s funny Auee… “I’m not going to prepare for the management meeting, I think I will just sit there & ooze sex appeal.”

    I will think of that in my next meeting.

  9. auee Says:

  13. auee Says:
