Exodus, Five Star Life (rewrite)

Today, we watched two movie trailers. The second one was Exodus: Gods and Kings. This is a Ridley Scott (who directed Alien and Gladiator) film, starring Christian Bale and Sigourney Weaver. As one might expect from the title, it's about Moses and the Exodus from Ancient Egypt. Christian Bale plays Moses.

A Five Star Life was the other trailer we saw. It's an Italian movie starring Margherita Buy as a hotel critic. She spends her whole life traveling around the world staying in five-star hotels and writing about their service. She enjoys her life at first but becomes unsatisfied when her family starts having problems.

It's interesting to speculate what it would be like to have a job like that. I imagine that I would also enjoy it at first, but would only want to do it for a year or two. The ideal thing would be to review one or two hotels a year and then go back to my regular life. In that way, it would feel like a holiday.

Goals of the World Cup (rewrite)

Today we watched six of the best goals of the World Cup: David Villa against Australia; Messi against Bosnia and Herzegovina; Xhaka against France; Higuain against Belgium; Van Persie against Spain; and Tim Cahill against Holland. They were all good goals. The ones that stood out for me were Van Persie's, because it was a headed goal that lobbed the goalkeeper; Cahill's, because it was a great volley; Villa's, because it was a tricky shot and because the vertical pass that set up the cross for him was very nice; and Messi's, because it was created as well as scored by him. I guess my favorite was Villa's because it looked so cool.

I guess my favorite was Villa's. Another reason is that the long pass that set up the cross for him was very nice.

The Hunger Games, and other matters…

Today, we watched a teaser trailer for the third Hunger Games movie. I'm not sure when it's due to be released. Although there are only three books in the series, it looks like there will be four movies, with the third book being divided into two, just like the seventh Harry Potter book.

Earlier this morning, I watched the World Cup final. Germany beat Argentina 1–0, scoring in the 2nd half of extra time. Although I like the German team very much, for some reason I was cheering on the Argentina team. Messi played pretty well, but not great. Germany overall were better throughout the tournament.
