Spent the weekend at home.. watched a couple of vcds and did a little studying on SPICE thingy. We watched 'The Core' played by some actors i dunno their names and hillary swank... and 'Trapped' played by Charlize Theron and Kevin Bacon to name a few... Both are full of action... but The Core failed to amaze me in a way that it failed to reason with my logic...? hmm...?

Its like.. 1st question: How do they actually know what it looks like down there in the earth's core? yeah.. we have geologists and geophysist whatever you call them and they study about those kind of stuffs... Yes, they may come out with theories on what it looked like inside the earth.. but its just theories... nobody had ever been there to prove if those theories are right, right?? Its a totally different case with the outer space where we'd seen proofs and people had actually been up there.

2nd: According to Nura, there are no materials even ceramics, (she referred to ceramics, which class can stand extreme heat) that can stand the heat up to 9000 degree Fahr... well at least not yet. And these people came up with a machine that actually can go inside the earth towards its core where its really, really hot..... It doesnt make sense that they can actually survive in that tunnelling machine thingy and its just a little too fantasy-like to have a machine that can stand extreme pressure and heat all at the same time. Nura said that usually, if a material can stand extreme heat, its usually brittle. And there goes this machine that can go through layers of earth (which we believe are made of rocks on the outer layer) and at the same time it can also stand the heat... yeah right. A little too much of a dream at the present moment isnt that?

And all that trouble for what??? To mend the problems caused by the paranoid US presidency. They came up with this nuclear twinning thingy to fail other countries' nuclear attack attempts (which they're not sure whether they're going to attack.. they're just being "ready" if being attacked -->more of being a paranoid freak i think) which turns out to be a disaster... and they think they can play God and get things back to normal... keep on dreaming.

So.. all in all.. i think it was a movie not worth watching at the cinema.. and even watching it from a pirated vcd is a waste of time... So.. i wouldnt reccomend anyone to watch it.. might as well watch Trapped.... i'll review it later.. :) Right now, gotta continue checking my mails.
