The Twins Effect

Blame myself on being curious but the d/l link was there I had to get it......


and 80 plus minutes later I was tad disappointed by the film that is said to propel Twins to International Stardom.


Wat's wrong with the film?


1)Too engrossed with Twins.With almost every moment to be Twins, Twins and Twins, there ain't enuff time to develope a good story.All the background works on Day and Night,Reeve(Ekin),Kafaz(Edison) were wasted and even Donnie Yuen's Portion as a Vampire King was removed.The movie on whole on paper was way better than wat was seen (or at least in this advanced copy...quality rip but all scenes of violence removed...strange).


2)Old concept.Nuff said


3)Twins,Twins,Twins


Wat's right?


1)The action stunts, choreography


2)SFX


3)Costumes?


4)Jackie Chan and Karen Mok cameo


5)Twins,Twins,Twins


So there's more good thing bad things then!Anyway I will still catch the movie when it hits the screen next week...hope got screening at Tampines.

The Whole Twins crazed come to a halt after I decided that:



  • they are not worth the time and the money

  • they cannot sing

  • they can act but their movies are almost bad. How to rate a HK movie? Twins
    as main cast can minus 1 star because that will affect on plot and costumes
    and settings.

  • I still love Japanese Idols.


However I will be watching Twins Effect II.

TV,Twins and Initial D

Just bought a New Monday magazine (hk).While this issue had no Twins cover (I just love Twins Covers), I bought it simply for the extra, The Twins Effect digest.Oh look it even got an mmorpg!Unbelievable( yea sure...even The Sly Guy A.K.A Young and Dangerous got online game)...the Helen(Charlene Choi) drawing is so cute....haha...I will try to reproduce it so that I can start posting Twins drawings on SGAnime forum (yes but 1st get scanner).The cast of <The Twins Effect> will come to Singapore on 27th and 30th.Hope Charlene will be there...even though I hate crowds....but I will do it for Charlene!


Just went gaga on Initial D again I bought 3 books in a row just wants to go down and get the other volume but wait till tomorrow then...


The Rose ,TW drama..always like Ella from S.H.E....such a talent...although may look odd (miles away rom Charlene), she had one less thing in her way(her looks) from developing into a good actress in compare to her two other group members Hebe and Selena. Selena was once again typecast(as we expected...was it her 1st acting effect?) as an Angel of gal..well she was to Heaven before the actual plotline started as a gal who died from an Unknown Disease (a great plot device for dramas).Her death devasted her boyfriend Jin (Male Lead)who got into a drinking habit and became a weirdo 'who became very gentle to girls once drunk' (as described by elder 'sister' Furong to Baihe acted by Ella).Hebe acted as a cousin to Kui (2nd male lead)...so far appeared in the Opening Credits only....maybe she will still kick up a big fuss like in the previous drama,Magic Love,with members of S.H.E (Selina was not in this one) acting in it. Singapore may not get to broadcast this proper due to some questionable scenes (gay or yaoi and incest) but do hope they sell vcds anyway because it's still a good show.
