Twisted Fairy Tales: Jack the Giant Slayer

MooMoo went to watch "Jack, the Giant Slayer" last Saturday.  It was better than expected but it is not really a show not to be missed.  It was quite entertaining but MooMoo thinks that it would be a bit scary for little kids to watch, especially on the disgusting giants eating people.  And since when Jack gets to marry a princess?!?  Haha... twisted fairy tales. :p
The giants were all very ugly and scary.  They are being portrayed as violent and disgusting.  There's one that looks a bit like 'Gollum' in Lord of the Ring.  
There's this phrase or quote that MooMoo likes from the show....
"Fee Fi Fo Fum, ask not when the thunder come, For between heaven and earth it's a perilous place, Home to a fearsome giant race, Who hunger to conquer the mortals below, Waiting for the seeds of revenge to grow...."

Nowadays, all the fairy tales movies are a bit twisted.... such as 'Cinderella Story', 'Beastly', 'Red Riding Hood', 'Snow White and the Huntsmen', 'Hansel and Gretel'.... and now 'Jack, the Giant Slayer'... What's next in the list?!?  

MooMoo thinks that nowadays, not many little kids know about fairy tales anymore.  When they watch movies like this, they cannot relate back to the fairy tales and it's just a new movie to them.  MooMoo personally still likes the traditional fairy tales and all the princesses in the fairy tales.  ^=^


* MooMoo is lately in the mood for some spooky movie... Looking for some brave kaki to go with her... If Piggy is still in Lion City, she will not be spared.  Hahaha!
