let's talk about movies and TV!

7-1!!!

ok, i still can't quite believe it. (see previous post)

anyway, shall do some updating here.

yesterday, anthony had tickets to the premiere of this new takuya kimura movie "love and honour". made a couple of calls and in the end, got shiyu and alexis to go with. (the dear one had to study for exam...aww...) tony wasn't free either, but yuxuan and peishan (sichun's sis and cousin) went too. somehow, we managed to con zhengning and marcus to go. they left halfway through the show though.

lao shi always manages to get premiere tickets. don't ask me how. my job is (or was) to call people to make up the numbers, coz he always took 10 without thinking who to go. that's a perk of my job. going for free movie premieres and events and getting freebies and meeting stars. (yes zhengning...STARS...don't worry, not my starbucks.) k lah, i'm kinda over the meeting-famous-people-excitement long ago becos i never really did get excited in the first place.

anyway, ABOUT the movie. the only reason why i decided or even considered to go watch a japanese samurai movie, was very purely...TAKUYA KIMURA. no, i'm not a big fan of his, but hey, i'm all for cute guys. and since i was free...why not?

BUT OH MY GOD!!!! he can't carry off the samurai look lah!!!

the bald patch in front, was totally my entertainment of the night. i couldn't help it but laugh each time his face was on the screen. wahahahaaaaa...very bad.

ok, the movie wasn't too bad. nice, usual, ancient Japan samurai kind of storyline. low budget production with high budget star, and a whole load of emotions - tears, humour, love and honour, and of course being tickled by the bald patch.

after the movie, alexis and shiyu wanted to go for supper, and i was getting hungry, so we decided on food. so nice of them to go all the way to woodlands for supper. cheese prata...yumz!!!

anyway, i'm watching the dance floor now.

seriously...

without trying to be too mean...

...

the show is bad lah.

the dancers aren't that good. a sight for sore eyes. i mean, i can't dance, but i'm an audience. surely, you are not supposed to torture your audience like that. and the judges...i can't even begin. i don't know what the hell they are trying to prove or sometimes, what they are trying to say. and it's a TV show for god sake! u are not supposed to have a second of slience. it's weird lah!

puh...local productions.

and jade seah. i really think she should just stick to scripted television shows that are NOT showed live. don't tell me she is hosting MSU because the show isn't that great as it is already.

why can't there be better hosts like ryan seacrest or even xiao zhu luo zhi xiang??? i mean, even xiao gui is better anytime!

but i must say, jeremy dreadlocks from PSS is doing quite a decent job hosting shows. i quite enjoy watching him on TV. i know it makes him look stupid sometimes, but that's what hosts do. they make themselves the humour so we audience actually enjoy the show. he's funny lah!!!

i think i'm gonna be hammered by mdc but seriously, i don't believe there are no better hosts or artistes out there. stop using those pretty or handsome or pan-asian ones JUST coz they look good.

like the new show about medical specialists just now. another headache...how can an artiste be so bad?!?!?! (and i'm not talking about jean danker...she's alright.)

HATE it when people don't or can't speak proper english and enunciate or pronounce properly when they are on TV. i mean, come on, you don't have to have an accent. just speak PROPER english. don't anyhow add an "s" where you're not supposed to or add past-tenses or wrong grammar or pause when you're not supposed to.

GO...FOR...ENGLISH...LESSONS!

anyway, i'm only hanging on for american idol. watched it on starworld just now but i wanna see it again. this year's idol finalists are different. there's a different vibe about them. quite excited to see who will win in the end. ooooh...i like melinda, but she didn't do too well. chris and blake are the other 2 i'm rooting for.

oh god! jade seah is back after the commercial break.

help!!!
