sometimes you have to see a movie twice ...

... to really like it. I just finished watching gladiator and I must admit I enjoyed it a lot. I remember going on the first night it came out in Vienna many years ago to the Haydn cinema and being really disappointed. It starts kind of boring but becomes very passionate and the music is simply amazing. It is interesting to see how soundtracks get re-used as it has the same title melody as pirates of the caribbean - which was shot three years later (Hans Zimmer this time). Plus I guess it influenced also 300 - which just came out last year. Very cool.

What else happened today? I finally checked out facebook and went to the Städel museum. Now I am going to bed to start the week not too tired. It is a strange feeling to have probably spent the last weekend in my current flat.

I am finishing this entry with a video I found on youtube that will only be understood by my Hungarian readers (so basically my parents as my brother never remembers the address of my blog). It's very funny because what happened is that there is a song from Scandinavia that is basically of course not in Hungarian but it can be read in Hungarian in which case it consists of small Hungarian (well, more or less) sentences - of course completely bullshit if read together, but the sentences more or less make sense by themselves. Very funny in a geeky way. Good night!!!



Oops - almost forgot. An orangutan called Sibu prefers tattooed blondes to female orangutans. Read here. No Joke!
