Alaska- Anchorage





Alaska is the largest state in the United States by area. It is situated in the northwest extremity of the North American continent, with Canada to the east, the Arctic Ocean to the north, and the Pacific Ocean to the west and south, with Russia further west across the Bering Strait. Approximately half of Alaska's 698,473 resident live within the Anchorage metropolitan area. As of 2009, Alaska remains the least densely populated state of the U.S



Anchorage is the northernmost major city in the United States, and largest city in the U.S state of Alaska. With an estimated 286,174 municipal residents in 2009, the city constitues more than 40 percent of the state's totla population, only New York has a higher percentage of residents who live in the state's largest city.

I think that Alaska don't have a lot of view than other cities, but When I look at the Alaska pictures, my mind is comfortable. So nice place.

Seattle


Seattle is the northermost major city in the contiguous United States, and the largest city in the Pacific Northwest and in the state of Washington.


The Space Needle, dating from the Century 21 Exposition, is Seattle's most recognizable landmark, having been featured in the logo of the television show Frasier and the backgrounds of the television series Dark Angel , Grey's Anatomy and iCarly, and films such as it happened at the World's Fair, Sleepless in Seattle , and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. The fairgrounds surrounding the Needle have been converted in to Seattle Center, which remains the site of many local civic and cultural events, such as Bumbershoot, Folklife, and the Bite of Seattle. Seattle Center plays multiple roles in the city, ranging from a public fair ground to a civic center, though recent economic losses have called its viability and future into question. The Seattle Center Monorail was also constructed for Centrury 21 and still runs from Seattle Center to Westlake Center, a downtown shopping mall, a little over a mile to the southeast.


Seattle is considered the home of grunge music, because it was home to artists such as Soundgarden, Nivana, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, and Mudhoney, all of whom reached vast audiences in the early 1990s. The city is also home to such varied musicians as avant-grade jazz musicians Bill Frisell and Wayne Hovitz, rapper Sir Mix- a Lot, smooth jazz saxophonist Kenny G, Heart, heavy metal bands Queensryche, Nevermore and Sunn , as well as such poppier rock bands as Harvey Danger, Goodness, and The Presidents of the United States of America. Such mucicians as Jimi Hendrix, Duff Mckagan, etc spent their formative years in Seattle.

Hawaii

SO HOT! HAWAII *.*




Hawaii is the newest of the 50 U.S states (August 21, 1959) and is the only U.S state made up entirely of islands. Its capital is Honolulu on the island of O'ahu. Hawaii is often referred to as the Paradise of the Pacific. Hawaii have so beautiful shore and beach. That is like emerald. So, Hawaii is popular to newlyweds.


Wikiki and Hanauma beaches ↑



However, all the Hawaiian islands were formed from volcanic activity initiated at an undersea magma source called a hotspot. As the tectonic plate beveath much of the Pacific Ocean moves to the northwest, the hot spot remains stationary, slowly creating new volcanoes. Due to the hotspot's location, the only active volcanoes are located around the southern half of the Big Island. The newest volcano is located south of the Big Island's coast.

Manhattan


Manhattan is the oldest, smallest and most densely-populated of the five boroughs of New York City. Located primarily on Manhattan Island at the mouth of the Hudson River, the boundaries of the borough are identical to those of New York Country, an original country of the state of New York. Manhattan is a major commercial, financial, and culture center of both the United States and world Anchored by Wall street, in Lower Manhattan, New York City vies with the City of London as the financial capital of the world.

Manhattan's many neighborhoods are not named according to any particular convention. Some are geographical, or ethnically descriptive(Little Italy). Others are acronyms, such as TRIBECA or SOHO, or the far more recent vintages NOLITA and NOMAD. Some neighborhoods, such as SOHO, are commercial and known for upscale shopping.
The skyscraper, which has shaped Manhattan's distinctive skyline, has been closely associated with New York City's identity since the end of the 19th century. From 1890-1973, the wold's tallest building was in Manhattan, with nine different buildings holding the title. The New York World Building on Park Row, was the first to take the title, standing 309 feet untile 1955, when it was demolished to construct a new ramp to the Brooklyn Bridge.
Also, the former Twin Towers of the World Trade Center were located in Lower Manhattan. This World Trade Center, a replacement for the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, is currently under construction and is slated to be ready for occupancy in 2013.
The Empire State Building was the world's tallest building from 1931 to 1972, and is currently the tallest building in the city.


Manhattan is famouse for cultures too. A popular haven for art, the downtown neighborhood of Chelsea is widely known for its galleries and cultural events, with more than 200 art galleries that are home to modern art from both upcoming and established artists.
Broadway theatre is often considered the highest professional form of theatre in the United States. Plays and musicals are staged in one of the 39 larger professional theatres with at least 500 seats, almost all in and around Times Square. Off- Broadway theatres feature productions in venues with 100-500 seats.
A little more than a mile from Times Square is the Lincoln Center, home to noe of the world's most prestigious opera houses, that of the Metropolitan Opera. Manhattan is also home to some of the most extensive art collections, both contemporary and historical, in the world including the Metropilitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the Frick Collection, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Frank Lloyd Wright- designed Guggenheim Museum.
I love New York!

[The Dark Knight]

Director- Christopher Nolan

Cast- Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Aaron Eckhart

2009. 02. 19



Susan, If you are fan of The Bat Man, I recommand to see. Because this movie have especially a strong content and appears nice 3 actors than prequels . If you are not fan, Just That movie was worth seeing.

First, The name 'The Bat-Man' disappeared anymore ,and The unfamiliar name 'The Dark Knight ' is written at center. As title's change, this movie don't talk about hero who beat the villain anymore like former batman movie. Dark Knight is no Dark night, and that is story that hero who keep away from heroic.

This movie's main character is not only the Bat Man(Christian Bale), but also the joker(Heath Ledger), the Harvey dent(Aaron Eckhart ).

This 3 man is main, and they lead the movie mixing up with each other.
Batman squares off against a new foe: the Joker.




I was a fan of Heath Ledger because he really acting with relish, I was regrettable to his death. Mr. Ledger as The Joker is categorically, forever brilliant to me .


Blood brothers.

Cast- Kang Dong Won , Song Gang Ho

2010. 02. 04



6 years ago, gunfight of mystery was occur in seoul the middle of the road.

Han-Gu was fired from National Intelligence Service, because of incident at that day, Ji-Won was abandoned that branded as the betrayer from North Korea too.

6 years later...........

Two men who bumped into each other started to live together and work together, hid behind a false identity in order to each purpose .


they knew to thought should kill each other at first.

However, they begin to understand each other as time goes by.


As a friend, a man, and a brother.........

I think that blood brothers is very good title.

the more so because If you think blood brothers's mean.

they has a sticky brotherly affection than real brothers, they are not brothers of the same blood.

There was scene that Ji-Won stabbing Han- Gyu at finally, I was so sad that I thought real .

But, Ji-Won did merely make a pretense of stab. so, This movie is over the happy ending.

I admire the strong directing, it's hard to believe to a new director.


PS . I always had felt, Kang- Dong - Won who is Ji- Won 's role is very handsome guy.

For reference, there is reversal at this movie's ending.


Later, maybe you are able to see this movie, I don't write orphan's ending. ^^
And, I want to tell you that This movie was started from psychological descriptions, and an extension of child actors was excellent.
(These days, I'm feeling that internal and external child actors's acting is great.)

Alice in wonderand-the mad hatter

director: Tim Burton

cast: Johnny Depp , mia wasikowska, helena bonham carter, Anne Hathaway.


this movie is high quality that timboton's direction makes many briliant characters.
the red queen is boasting her very big head. she talks "cut off head!" as habit and she does monocracy. anything punished if herself doesn't like act.
in contrast, red queen's sister white queen is beautiful, good ability.
alice seems to pioneer who will exchange the era that a red queen govering.

and, our mad hatter, Johnny Depp! he lived to ordinary life who he trying to help the era that exchange alice because he lost all things to red queen.



In addition, there is individual characters of fat twins bro, cheshire cat, rabbit etc..
I didn't see it to 3D movie, Sense of color was too excellent, and background was too beautiful.
director tim burton was use strange language as frabjous, vorpal(maybe sword name) etc...
At first, these scripts are confused, but it was enough interesting.
when mad hatter won war of red queen at finally scene
, 'Futterwacken Dance', so funny!^^




A
lso, I remember that quote

"you are stupid. inter nos, nice people are that's it all "

this quote sounds like talk to himself, tim burton
what I one thing feel the lack of movie is so ended easily.
Requested feeling happened to an obvious end that I was too much expectation.
but, I recommend this movie that if person feel visually an interest than content
.
