How MDC should end Golden Path instead

Thanks to the sweet advances in technology that is MobTV, I'd gotten the chance to watch the finale of Golden Path a day or so before most people do. That said, it didn't catch me by surprise when I discovered that MediaCorp decided to screw up the ending of an otherwise-great-story again, and again. Let me tell you ... continue reading ↠

Autobots, transform and roll out!

Spiderman 3 was disappointing -- too many villians packed into 2 hours of actions gives me an headache. Shrek 3 was only cute because of Donkey's hybrid babies. Pirates 3 didn't excite me as much as Pirates 2, but at least they stuck to the original "Pirates" thing they started off with Pirates 1. Then Transformers is next in line in ... continue reading ↠

A great romance mini-drama and some great songs.

A simple love story that I'd dug up (from Youtube) with Erika Toda being the main lead. Interesting story for something that's barely 1/4 of an hour long. While the lead actor isn't all that handsome, the lead actress is the one to look out for! Because, we're talking about Erika Toda!! OMFG?!?111? <3!... continue reading ↠

The Lake House

If it's possible, I'll give it 11 stars out of 10. And not without reasons since I've been anticipating this show for like 2-3 months -- not only did it not fail me, it surpassed my expectation. Thanks to this remake, the cinemas could finally use a break from some teenage romance flicks with whiny bitches losing their luck (no I ... continue reading ↠

Nostalgia

Since last year, I had watched myriad korean romance dramas whereby all the male leads somehow seem to be having troubles confessing their love for the female leads. It doesn't take a genius to realise that their targets of affection reciprocrate their feelings but they just can't confess because of (cue some fucked up reasons and whatnot here) resulting in ... continue reading ↠

Fly me to Polaris, Jerry Mcguire

Now if there're 2 romance flicks that survived the second millenium in my book of favourites, they have to be Fly me to Polaris(1999) and Jerry Maguire(1996). These two shows have great stories to tell and I love to (re-)watch them whenever I'm down on my mood or confused, and I don't know why. Great castings, heart-warming plots ... continue reading ↠

Bao Lian Deng

Since April 17, Channel 8 had been broadcasting 宝莲灯 on weekdays at 7PM. Unfortunately, due to some misunderstandings (of the show) when my dad introduced it to me, I didn't pay any attention to it till the last few episodes. And now I regret deeply. First, ... continue reading ↠

Transformers: Prime Directive

So you thought the x-men trilogy was such a big deal? Or that Spiderman kicked ass? Not quite yet I tell 'ya, not quite yet, not till we witness the wonders of Transformers: Prime Directive on the big screens. Though there've been reported leakings of a very disappointing plot, let's just hope (and pray) ... continue reading ↠

The Da Vinci Code

I didn't read the novel prior to watching the movie. But according to what I heard (from friends), the adaptation was done pretty faithfully with the exceptions of missing certain explanations which would have made the story more convincing. About the movie itself, I totally dig Sophie's French accent which is so bloody sexy. And towards the end of ... continue reading ↠

Poseidon

I managed to catch it last week and unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. I'm not even comparing it to its predecessor (because I've not watched it before). The director pushed his luck when he made the survivors gone lucky twice, first with the tilting of the ship due to under-water explosions and the second when the corpse floated ... continue reading ↠

Return of the Condor Hero (Shen Diao Xia Lu)

Third and possibly last update message to this post: The show uses alot of the same cast from the predecessor "She Diao Ying Xiong Zhuan" (the additional cast like Zhou Botong, Yi Deng, etc; but Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Ouyang Feng, Hong QiGong, Huang Yaoshi and He Zhen Nam changed) and it makes a good collection item if you ... continue reading ↠

“The Shining Star” finale.

<sarcasm> If there's something MediaCorp can do, and do very well, it is the ability to build up a very interesting show only to end it in the coolest way ever. That said, if you've been faithfully watching MediaCorp's shows since its dawn, then perhaps you have already came up with 1001 ways to give an otherwise great show an interesting ... continue reading ↠
