Hobbit: The Unexpected Journey...

Tuned into my favorite movie channel CGV. 
20 minutes had passed since the Hobbit started. 
But, it's still enough for me to catch up what I missed. 
Since, of course I watched it already. 
So, what's the point of re-watching it again? 
Nothing else but only for the sake of reliving the cinematic experience I once had. 
When I first got the glimpses of destinies intertwined that would lead to the...
Lord of The Ring Trilogy. And ..this Hobbit movie really deepened my understanding... 
of how the Elves, Hobbit, Man, Wizards and others used to live years...before...
The real "LOTR" saga even unfolded...
For instance, like this Gollum's face when the riddle game was on...^^ 
Anyway, I took some snapshots of the movie to make sure that.. 
I did enjoy re-watching it...again and again... 
And though it's not 3D, at least it's HD and ...I was putting on my 3D glasses 
to give another depth of its visual grandeur...that finally gave me a nod
to two more series of this Hobbit. 
Smaug, anyone???

Gone to Bucheon: Thanks to 'The Hobbit'

(CGV at New Core Plaza)
 What's the fuzz about Bucheon? Nothing, except when PiFan or Pucheon International Fantastic Film Festival kicks in. But, that's not the reason as to why I went there the other day. I was 'furious' because 'The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug' is not available at all theaters in Seoul. And that means one thing! If I ever wanted to see the Hobbit, I got no other choice but to go to other cities in other province!!
(From the 6th Floor of CGV, night view of Bucheon city)
And Bucheon is the closest city that I could reach from Youido after my last class of this semester ended. Yeaach.
Okay..long story short...I got to ride subway for almost 1.5 hours. Geeeeezzz.
(A zoomed-in view of Bucheon city)
The point is...that I got to walk for almost 1 hour again..just to find CGV! well, I should have read the map. I got off at the Bucheon station..which to my surprise....CGV was nowhere to be found around that station!!!
(A loop through one of the sky bridges connecting the Bucheon park & CGV)
I could have watched the afternoon show at around 4 pm..but to the street-drama...I got to be patient enough to enjoy the movie in the evening.
(The interior look of the skybridge facade)
 It's so cold outside and I just forgot to bring along my gloves...which added up my street-drama in Bucheon.
(The New Core Plaza)
I was walking down the main street where New Core Plaza was right at the busy intersection of the city center.
I could've enjoyed the city more, had I had enough time to explore. But, I got to go home since it would take another 2 hours to bring me back home:-)
Bucheon's catch-word: Fantasia. I didn't know as to why it is so. But, I guess it may have something to do with Bucheon being the host-city and the birth of Piffan.
Inside the city-bus which is quite different from the ones we have in Seoul. It has 2 TV that airs ads from related private sponsors or government-sponsored ads.
Then, I just realized that in the near future, should I go to Bucheon again..I'd rather take subway line 7 and get off at Sinjungdong station...that connects directly with this Lotte Shopping Mall.
If you see these two elephants, you're on the right track to go to CGV. Just take the bus towards the City Hall where New Core is located or just walk down the street for about 15 minutes or more:-)
Thanks to 'Hobbit' now..I could say that I did go to Bucheon. 
Gosh..I need to see 'The Hobbit' in IMAX 3D but..does it mean that I have to go another city like Incheon?? Oh Noo...why why why....

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey + Les Miserables

Been a hectic month since last year....ell, after all of the drama in last semester's final terms, and all the rush in finishing the term paper and in-between part-time jobs, I did not see any movie. 
and..I am a movie freak.
How could I miss many movies in Winter? Not a chance.
So, just when I had time ...I rushed to CGV and booked two movies at once. 
The first one was Les Miserables. (normal ticket: 9000 Won or US$ 9)
The second one was the Hobbit in 4XD. (normal price: 18,000 Won or US$ 18)
Gosh.......but I just want to pamper myself with movies...
***
I admitted that I cried during Les Miserables. hahahahahahaha
Then..I was jumping up and down on my seat during the Hobbit...not so much by the movie...but by the movement of the seat that shook me all along the journey in the Middle Earth.
What a movie. I'd definitely watch it again.!!!!!

More movies to watch this January 2013
Cloud Atlas
Tower (타워)
Life of Pi
