salute to Heath Ledger.

the dark knight is superb. although this girl beside me was clearly disgusted, disturbed and visually tortured by it. but i think this is so cool i totally love the movie, it is 10 times better than Transformers although in both movie i couldn't really see what's going on during the cars chasing and crashing, which the CGI must have spent a lot of of time and effort on. Speaking about computer graphic, the defaced-face of Harvey Dent is so '__________' (fill in the blank with some words better than cool, it's so real! good job to those who did the 3D for that face.

heath ledger. omg on the fact that he is dead. but i've been waiting for this movie since before his death, coz i only watch Batman out of all other men, i mean superheroes. if his death is proven caused by mental illness, anyone who has watched this movie could have understood how so. he is so great as the joker with all those little body language he made.

and gosh, i missed out the a few seconds of Edison Chen's part! i didn't blink but i just didn't see that it was him. it was too fast! blame it on the big screen i couldn't focus on the details... ish

overall,
Batman wasn't impressive but Bruce Wayne has nice speech. I miss George Clooney. Maggie Gyllenhaal's was a bit disappointing as i always like her in movies; joker is not funny with his no-rules rule but disturbingly fantastic acting; Morgan Freeman is Morgan Freeman and i dunno why those people in Hong Kong were speaking in mandarin (or have i missed out some details about this~)

if you extremely don't like to watch people acting crazy in bombing places, saying why so serious and slitting people's mouth, orrrr... if you don't like that joker look in the poster, don't go watch it, coz the fantastic joker is all over the movie.

Genre: Romantic Comedy
Starring: 徐天佑 梁晓丰 杨淇

2 guys, a girl and lots of magic tricks.

First got attracted to this movie because of 杨淇, seen her in 盛夏光年.
The Star newspaper covered about this movie before early this year.
The art direction is similar to The Shoe Fairy with more elements in it. The movie is simple, revolving around ordinary people with special hobbies. It is cute, artistic and creative. like the music too. :)
The animated 梁晓丰 is just so funny with his innocent face.

Genre: Romance
18 short films in a movie about love and relationships in the city of love, Paris.

Personally i like the MIME couple one the most following by the one with Natalie Portman and the blind boyfriend. Some are with weird storyline but still they are sweet and well presented.

I've watched most part of it online but still missing out a few stories so i decided to watch it in the cinema with sis at international screen. I would love to watch it again and again and listen to the song again and again and again.










We're All In The Dance
Feist

Life's a dance, we all have to do
What does the music require?
People are moving together
Close as the flames in a fire

Feel the beat; music and rhyme
While there is time.

We all go 'round and 'round
Partners of lost and found
Looking for one more chance
All I know is,
We're all in the dance

Night and Day, the music plays on
We are all part of the show
While we can hold on to someone
Even though life won't let us go

Feel the beat; music and rhyme
While there is time.


We all go round and round
Partners of lost and found
Looking for one more chance
All I know is,
We're all in the dance

We're all in the dance

We all go round and round
Partners of lost and found
Looking for one more chance
All we know is,
We're all in the dance

hmm.... maybe i expect too much from this movie, because of the very nice and tempting trailer. and the Beatles. their songs.

it felt like watching a lot of MTVs in a film, the musical is kinda out of place to me. i didn't know it is some kind of musical in the first place... i felt a bit mo chang when they sing, not that they are bad, they have great voice actually, but watching it sometimes reminds me of high school musical, where this is the adult and 60's 70's way.

i will prefer the songs are originally sang by the Beatles, as the background music.
the story is not deep enough as they are so busy singing and sometimes dancing. if you've watched a bit of Enchanted maybe you'll think about asking them to shut up, don't sing, you are in the city. it's ok that they sing, but dance? choreographed performance? i laughed at them with a bit of sigh. thanks to the way they end it, it has kinda saved the movie.

well i don't wanna kill your anticipation towards this movie if you really feel like watching it, maybe you'll find the direction suitable. it will be better to watch this movie if you are familiar with Beatles' songs.
anyway, i get a message from this movie, which is, a war makes everybody either a sad person or an angry person.
peace

btw, i like the strawberry logo jude did for sadie. red, juicy and sexy

it lengthens, it gives volume not too thick in a layer, it is really black, it combs nicely and most importantly it doesn't flake at the end of the day.

i don't know the price.

last week i exchange my R-brand full size mascara (which i don't really like and would just leave it to dry) with this mini size Clinique for 7-day-use from the counter, as advertise in newspaper. the result is satisfying!~ and i don't think i can finish it for only 7 days use.

I'm using the 3rd, erm... if not 4th tube.

It rubs off trapped dirt gently and moisturizes skin.
It doesn't really remove whiteheads and blackhead as written
-you can leave this to Biore Pore Pack (black strip recommended), but is a good option to use alternately with scrub, since scrub scrubs skin hurts...

Daily use is recommended (by the packaging), but no need la, I use only when I feel my skin is dirty~ if used regularly, like once a week, it is enough to brighten up skin and refines pores. smooooth skin.

p/s: I'm writing this because I stopped using it months ago and today I use it again, it has a visible result to the pores.
There was a period when I exposed to the sun almost everyday but still Eu said I look fairer, I didn't use any whitening stuff on my face but only this. I guess it helped.

Joanne has been talking about this French movie since last year and kept on looking for the DVD, too bad those in Sg Wang don't even know what is it. Finally she found the original one and bought it. Highly recommended.

Amelie is very pretty, interesting, amazing and inspiring
That magical smile of Amelie Poulain and the amazing things she does made me smile and laugh and smile and laugh. Some for her funny imaginations and some for her brilliant little deeds that make impacts. Not to forget those people and animals in the picture frames that talk, think Harry Potter.

The movie has a nostalgic and colourful scenes. Every shot is so pretty that I was so busy looking at the whole picture. Similar scenes are shot in different angles too.

You'll love her smile

Category:Books
Genre: Nonfiction
Author:Paul Arden
A book that teaches you to make the wrong decisions and the benefits out of them. I smiled and agreed on almost every conclusion at the end of each topic.
Big font size with images on alternate pages. you read it fast, but some sentences you need to process them deep into your brain to get the rationale.
I'll just quote some sentences that made me laughed:

`You are the person you choose to be.'

`Next time, instead of asking if it's right, ask them what's wrong.'

` Most people are other people.
Their thoughts are someone else's opinions,
their lives a mimicry,
THEIR PASSIONS A QUOTATION.'
Oscar Wilde

`There is no right point of view.'

`Good art speaks for itself. That doesn't mean you have to like it.'

`Thi$ will make you creative.
...
Think about money. It's honest.'

`Good marks will not secure you with an interesting life. Your imagination will.'



I would like to share it to anyone for a few hours, but not overnight. Coz I love it so much I would want to refer it anytime I want. Even in the middle of the night.

Genre: Foreign
Went MV on a Saturday night wanted to watch the one at 9.00pm but sold out so we took the next at 11.30pm and ended up in the second row from the screen~ Read:uncomfortable. Plus 2 of my bloody like-long-lost-friends were chatting throughout the movie. disTrACTioN lah!

Think the day after tomorrow, think war of the worlds, think armageddon. Vocanoes throughout Japan were exploding, tsunami and earth quake struck every now and then. Ground kept sinking, people kept dying.

To kill the thrill, sorry but to my disappointment, Japan does not completely sink. The love story in between was quite brief. Something is not strong enough about this movie but the whole scene was grand and there was only 1 scene that the graphic part is not very well done.

Cant remember any spectacular scene right now. Maybe because of the distraction...

3 stars for the movie, 4 stars for the acting overall.
Very terribly sad ending. Everybody dies. Very bloody. Since the starting whenever there is a weapon fight, slashing and you'll see blood splashing out from the body in slower motion. All the daggers and swords that go into a body are stabbed through. For a moment Zhang Zi Yi made me hate her coz her evil expression is really great.
Very expensive production, everything is big and grand, red and gold. The armour worn by the imperial armies are expensive looking too.
I noticed that most of the important shots are symmetrically balance. Important people stands in the middle separating the grand background.
Something is lacking in the movie. Maybe is that nobody truly give a smile, or the acting is too tense, or maybe there is not enough chinese elements in it, like the critiques this movie gets from the Cannes. It's just not complete.
It's something like 无极 (The Promise).

千千静听

this is a brilliant software created by allen and his HK friend. according to him, it's quite widely used in HK. its a combination of winamp and windows media player.
multiple funny functions (funny because it's brilliant). i'm still in the early stage of exploring it. so not much to tell yet.
features like change the opacity, auto adjust equalizer, the minimized icon that follows the skin, can display lyrics, and the erm, anyway, this thing is cute and it takes only a little memory.
bye bye to laggingness.

but only those can read and understand those terms in chinese will be able to use, coz everything is in chinese words.

for everyone
Category:Other
鱼对水说:我一直在哭泣,可是你永远都不知道,因为我在水中。
水对鱼说;我能感觉到你的眼泪,因为你在我心中。
我不是鱼,你也不是水。你能看见我寂寞的眼泪吗? 也许,这只是寂寞情人泪。
  
鱼对水说:我永远不会离开你,因为离开你,我无法生存。
水对鱼说:我知道,可是如果你的心不在呢?
我不是鱼,你也不是水。我不离开你是因为我爱你。
可是,你的心里有我吗?
  
鱼对水说:我很寂寞,因为我只能待在水中。
水对鱼说:我知道,因为我的心里装着你的寂寞。
我不是鱼,你也不是水。我寂寞是因为我思念你。
可是,远方的你能感受到吗?
  
鱼对水说:如果没有鱼,那水里还会剩下什么?
水对鱼说:如果没有你,那又怎么会有我?
我不是鱼,你也不是水。没有你的爱,我依然会好好的活。
可是,好好的活并不代表我可以把你忘记。
  
鱼对水说:一辈子不能出去看看外面的世界,是我最大的遗憾。
水对鱼说:一辈子不能打消你的这个念头,是我最大的失败。
我不是鱼,你也不是水。现在的我只想要一个一辈子的承诺。
可是,你负担得起吗?
  
鱼对水说:在你的一生中,我是第几条鱼?
水对鱼说:你不是在水中的第一条鱼,但却是在我心中的第一条。
我不是鱼,你也不是水。我们都不是彼此生命中的第一个,
可是,你知道吗?你却是我第一个想嫁的人。
  
鱼对水说:你相信一见钟情吗?
水对鱼说:当我意识到你是鱼的那一刻,就知道你会游到我的心里。
我不是鱼,你也不是水。我以为我对你的爱不会长久,因为那是一见钟情。
可是,我错了,感情如酒,越封越浓越长久。

鱼对水说:如果我是水你是鱼,你会游到我心里来吗?
水对鱼说:如果我是鱼你是水,你心中还有我的位置吗,如果你心中有鱼,你会给鱼多大空间?

鱼对水说:为什么每次都是我问你答?
水对鱼说:因为我喜欢在问答中让你了解我的心。
我不是鱼,你也不是水。为什么你总是让我等待?
难道你不知道,等待=失去信心=放弃。
  
如果我是鱼,而你是水,那该多好!水永远都知道鱼的想法,因为鱼在水心里。
但是我不是鱼,你也不是水。你永远都不知道我的爱,
因为我也许根本就不在你的心里。
  
如果我是鱼,而你是水,
我可以游入你的心里吗?
