The good: Astro's showing Nip/tuck. Hello Dr. Christian-hottie-Troy and sex pot Kimber.
The bad: Astro is three seasons late. This just means that I might have to look for other ways to get my paws on season four as the episodes air without having Mo blow the whole episode (or season) away for me.
The extremely ugly: Nip/tuck meet Malaysia. Nip/tuck meet censorship more harsh than a blunt, rusty rod up the out hole.

It's been a long respite and I'll just start with an OMFG X3 WAS SOOOOO GOOOOOD :D
Ok, granted I'm absurdly bias because I love them all and a then little more if you're talking about Wolverine. Yes, the ultimate eye candy: hottie Hugh Jackman as Wolverine *swoons*. Rumor has it that the big people in Hollywood are thinking of making an X-Men spinoff focusing on Wolverine. As much as I'd DIE to see that, good luck with that :/ Character development will be a bitch considering hot, sexy beast Logan has been around for quite some time. They could also just solely expand on the Weapon X series <3
Although, I have to add that Famke was equally as hot :x
Smolderingly sexy *fans*.
I want red hair now xD
However, out of all the female characters, I've always loved Storm (and still do, mind you even though they butchered her character in this installment noooooooooo!). It stabbed me in the heart to see what a piss poor job Halle Berry did playing the mistress of the elements. Maybe I'm not being entirely fair because there was really little room for character development but bear with me :P
Let's do a small comparison.
Storm: wise, strong, compassionate.
Halle Berry as Storm:
wisdom? HAH. Didn't seem one bit sincere and was more like listening to her trying to pull off ageless wisdom while reading off a script. It did the reverse and gave her own character a swift kick in the ass all the way down to blur, fumbling naivety.
strength: Minus all the sexy cgi and overzealous lightning worthy of epileptic seizures, her portrayal of Storm seemed somewhat... airy. How does some who projects such a squishy, shaky persona command the elements? Unworthy!
compassion: I've seen more compassion in a dead fish. Honestly, how much more deadpanned and uncaring to your surroundings can you get >.> My heart bleeds at the injustice, really.
X-Men aside, I've FINALLY started my room renovation effort. Step one is done: buy paint :P
I'm sure Cina and Chris have been getting pissy listening to me scream "I have to buy paint!" in the midst of conversations like a realization had just smacked itself on my crown all week, only to finally buy it on Sunday night lol
So it's on to step two: cleaning out the room :/
Pictures will come soon ^^; Uh, yeah. When I decide to clean my pigsty of a room for a glam shot ;)
Today, while waiting for lunch in Esquire with my dad, I decided to browse the little stalls outside the restaurant for earrings. I've been losing so many of them it isn't even funny anymore :(
So, I'm there critically eyeing columns of long, dangly glittery earrings and all the while mentally noting that a single earring would put any Christmas tree ornament to shame. The "long, opulent and abundant" fashion seems to be back with a vengeance this year O.o While pondering which ones will actually look decent without possibly stretching my earlobes to a dumbo-like proportion, another girl (who was also browsing, let's call her Turquoise-girl since she was wearing a belt with stones of that color) came up to me and said in Mandarin "Excuse me miss..." xD
Honestly, I panicked because it was in Mandarin. I am SO BAD at the language my ancestors would forsake my heritage if I ever tried conversing in it. First thought that came to mind and out my mouth was a defensive "Uhm, I don't work here..."
Seriously, don't ask me WHY but that was what I said O.o Quite possibly because the storekeeper spoke Mandarin to me while she was handing me a basket to put my earrings into and that Turquoise-girl spoke English to her friend.
Turquoise-girl, who seemed taken aback (possibly from the wide-eyed deer look of terror I had on my face from being approached by a sentence in Mandarin) apologized hastily and explained quickly that she and her friend were having a hard time deciding on a third pair of earring (they were having a RM10 for 3 promotion) and was wondering how many pairs of earrings I was planning on getting. Me, half flustered and thoroughly relieved that she spoke in English, mumbled something about being unsure while coughing up a nervous laugh, apologized and went back to staring at the little bits of hanging glitter.
I am soooooo terrible :P
...and the prime example that not ALL Chinese Malaysian people speak Mandarin.
I'm ashamed I said that but hey, it's the sad truth innit :x

Friday, April 21, 2006
today, the world's two biggest chickens (namely calvin and i :p) and friend (i can't spell his name so i don't really feel like butchering it to death, sorry! ;/) went to watch takashi shimizu's reincarnation (rinne) -_- yes, the very same director who orchestrated and basked in the whole circus of ju-on/grudge fame.
reincarnation is basically about a film crew remaking a tragedy that happened some few years back which involved a mad doctor killing people off in some godforsakenly isolated hotel up in the mountains. shoot begins, funky stuff happen and we get to see the infamous little female child ghost (in long black hair of course) EVERY j-horror movie must have.
in all, the movie sucked.
S U C K E D.
as calvin so delicately put it, our iqs dropped marginally after sitting through 95 minutes of (massive random spoilers ahead, don't read if you're planning on, for any reason at all, watching this show sometime in the near future) cheap thrills, a looping theme song, a non-believable and unforgivingly UGLY doll, resident evil zombie wannabes and a pseudo sixth sense-ish ending ;/
don't get me wrong, ju-on and its american evil twin scared me shitless... enough to cause hyperventilation, re-affirmation of faith in the church at sonic speed and possibly an instant coma if the day comes that i will be ever so unlucky as to meet up with a certain lady in white crawling down my stairs -_-
shivering as i walked into the theatre, i sat down expecting the same dosage of chilling uneasiness ala ju-on that would linger on even once after the movie was over...
SUCH a disappointment.
well, to be honest, the concepts of reincarnation, dormant memories and lost/old souls are very fascinating... do you ever wonder? if you were someone else in the past? ^^; what happens if you recall a set of memories that aren't yours? hmm.
i suppose there was some sort of cruel intellectual ethics lesson to be learnt in the movie, especially once towards the end, the sole survivor (of the "actual" murders) more or less mentioned that the doctor basically gutted everyone like squealing pigs as an "experiment" O.o shame on you scientists and the lengths you'd go to in the pursuit of knowledge! :P
anyway, but when the lead actress goes into a state of mindfuck and everyone does the whole cgi morph effect into their former selves AND their broken limbs start shaming jim henson and his puppet masters, there is something REALLY WRONG with the show.
the only cheap thrill that came out of this movie was the distorted and horrific looking doll.
how on mother nature's green earth could you possibly get something like that for you kid?
seriously.
at least the doll in "the doll master" by yong-ki jeong was more believably as something you'd actually want your kid to hold at night and cuddle to sleep with O.o granted the doll master wasn't THAT great... >.> but it left enough of an impression for me to have an overwhelming urge to STAB anyone who thinks having an attic full of dolls is a fantastic idea.
i thought the stop-motion effect was pretty terrible towards the end, but fuck i don't EVER want to see that anywhere else other than on-screen.
sigh, we should've watched ice age 2 instead and everyone would've gone home happy and satisfied with a sufficient dosage of family-fun humor!
tomorrow is always another night :P
