Sammie side-up: 50 shades of Grey

FLYING HOME movie review! (Jamie Dornan)

I stated in my previous post that Jamie had a new movie which was this: Flying Home. I remember when I first found out about this. My main reactions were "WHOA. SO IS THIS LIKE, A SNEAK PEAK OF CHRISTIAN GREY??" and "FINALLY! A MOVIE WITH JAMIE IN IT... AS A MAJOR CHARACTER!". It's uppercased because everytime I say things about Jamie Dornan, or even just by thinking of him, I fangirl so much that it's so hard to keep calm!! It's making me insane because this is seriously my first time to fangirl over a celeb. I mean, yeah, I've idolized different stars and all, but this one's different... It's fangirling; and for some reason, I don't really mind what other people think. The updates are making me happy and seeing Jamie everyday on my TL's making me happy, so I don't think that there's a really negative side to this, considering the fact that Jamie motivates me to strive hard because of his Christian Grey role. *sigh* So guys, if you haven't experienced fangirling, don't be scared to! It's actually fun. You tend to feel productive when you know you're updated; and also, your fandom can be your very own drug! Atleast this addiction can't and won't ever harm you! ;)

So anyway, Flying Home.

Flying Home is actually a Belgian movie. Most scenes were shot in Belgium, and some scenes are even in Belgian (it's not Jamie who'll be speaking Belgian, if that's what you're thinking. Teehee). So be sure to watch or download one with subtitles! :)

How did I find the movie?

I found Flying Home as one of those you-can-watch-anytime-movies. It has some sense of drama in it, but it can be light to watch. The only real dramatic parts in the movie are near the end, and the falling action and conclusion of the movie's even short.

What's interesting or attention grabbing in the movie for me?

One of the things that grabbed me in the movie is its quality and lighting. The lighting isn't bright; it's as if the scenes are cloudy or soft even when the scene is in daytime. And that, makes a movie soothing, and comfortable to watch. Like the lighting of the "How I met your Mother" series.

Another is Jamie's acting in his roles. You see, in Flying Home, Jamie has 2 roles. A good and bad one. In the story, he's really a businessman who at first, only cared about the money and only aimed to get Isabelle's Grandfather's Pigeon; but when he came to Belgium and met Isabelle, he became similar to as any smitten guy. So he became (pretentiously) a good, and soft person. Someone you'd probably want your parents to meet (especially his looks, omg). So you'll get to see those 2 personalities in him in the movie. You'll even get to see him drunk and in a fight! Oh, and you'll get to hear him with an American accent!! ;)

My rating for the movie. 5 stars being the highest:

✵✵✵ and a half. :)

I recommend you guys to try watching this! It's a really nice movie, and who knows? Maybe you'll have this as one of your watch-anytime list of movies. Aaand, you'll be able to see what Jamie's capable of and how his acting is! So go watch it now, guys! You won't regret it. :)

Thanks for reading! xx :)

Be an intern at Grey Enterprises Holdings Inc. now!! ;)

Hey guys! This'll be a quicky because I still have loads of school works to do. So um, just this afternoon, I found this new 50 Shades of Grey twitter account. I followed it of course, and checked out its photos and videos. From a few days back, they posted this poster of a Grey app. I got so excited and crap that I can even get to sign an NDA. Seriously. It was so thrilling for me, though it's a really plain app. Haha! Actually, what I tried was just on its site: http://greyenterprisesholdings.com, but when the app's available on Google play, I swear to everyone on this planet that I will download it instant-freaking-ly. So yeah guys, the app for androids isn't available yet (phonecist beings ugh). So obviously, Iphones have the apps available already. So if you're an Iphone user, go download the beautiful app already!
I just noticed that I used "So" in 3 consecutive sentences. It's making me paranoid...

Anyway! Here's a little screenshot of my profile for ya. :)

Da-dum! I actually expected this to look more.. uh, gray? and uh. white? but oh well... So guys, this app really isn't a game, game. It's really just an app (should it even be called an app when used in the computer?) about the book, movie, and its updates and news. :)

I actually expected them to make this thing more of an interactive game. Like there will be Jamie Dornan in a suit pop-outs with speech bubbles like "Hello Ms. insert your username here. What can I help you with?" something like that. Haha! Maybe not like that but plainly with Jamie Dornan pop-outs. But... Nada. The only place you'll be seeing Jamie is in the Gallery-

Which reminds me. I was supposed to give you a small screenshot tour... but since I'm kinda in a rush, I'll be giving you a really really short one. :)

Okay, so guys! Obviously, the Profile page is your Profile; the page where you get to edit details about you. Oh, and there isn't any "tell about yourself" area there. So yeah, again, it's a really plain app. It's really just to keep real submissives updated about the whole thing. :)

The Assignments page has these tasks that are up for you. Everytime you finish a whole set of tasks, you get to move to the next level. My screenshot up there is opened in the Assignments task, so that's how it looks like, guys. :) I've completed all the tasks that didn't need any sharing because I'm a selfish little critter. HAH. But yeah, I admit that I am when it comes to FSOG, because I know some people in my facebook and twitter who act as if they're super fangirls when they never even searched nor search for updates about the filming every. single. day. from when the filming started. Ugh. Seriously. Also, they know nothing about Jamie. If they're only up for the story, I'm fine with it. But some pretend like they've known Jamie for a really long time when the only thing they know is that he'll be portraying Christian Grey and that's pretty much it. Bleh. I'm a great friend to anyone, really, but I don't like those kind of girls. It's like they're only up for some attention that they get to say things about them... they irritate me. :/

So anyway, one of the things I like most here is that you get to have an ID and you get to sign an NDA! :D one thing about the ID though is that it has to be shared. So yep, I haven't completed the ID sharing task yet. :) here are some screenshots:

OH, and in some completed tasks, you get to have badges!! :)

The Gallery page, like what I have stated just a few paragraphs up, is where you get to see some official photos from FSOG. It is also the only place there where you'll see Jamie and the rest of the casts's faces (except for the pic of the official poster where the only thing you see is Jamie's back and a caption saying "Mr. Grey will see you now").
