Just summing it up....

Corpse Bride

After the movie, as usual, i walked from simei to home. Along the way i saw Selena walked pass me. I wasn't quite surprise about her living in the east. It's just that i expected to see her in kino bugis rather than anywhere else.

Huh love in the air?Nope. It's just that she was the 2nd girl that i actually checked what's written on her name tag.(the first was Kaori Zhu who i believe is one of those goth loli cosplayers....and who i mistaken her to be 'kaoru zhu'...ok my bad)Why i checked her nametag? Bcos i expected something japanesque, Turn outs to be selena (thus i didn't notice if there's a surname.Was I disappointed?I am not sure if I am. LOL)

Anyway back to Corpse Bride
Hey.....it's the 1st time i watched a movie with someone and not really finished with the popcorns. LoL.

Yuki thinks it is because we ate before we went but the truth is that i got too engross while watching.Haha a fine amount of popcorn is wasted at the end. The finale is really well executed. This is the kind of cinematic experience that will impress you,no matter what kind of unkind reviews it got from snobbish film-goer.

The storyline wasn't too filled up althought I find that it's alright because there isn't a need for a killer tonne of back story. In a sense, Corpse Bride is a simple story that didn't want to go too complicating.You just want to watch Corpse Bride because it features a corpse bride, it's the right movie. There are minimal details to distract, just enough material to keep it going. I find that a good thing because nowadays, all i get are some oddity material that does nothing but to gain a sequel or a spin-off.


Casshern
Japanese makes beautiful pictures. Especially ani-manga film features.Absolutely fascinating. Casshern is an anti-war movie that disguised as a manga-sque action film.Fights are breath-taking.The CGI meticulously made to the fine details almost like demostrating that cinema is the NEXT EVOLUTION of animangasque that Hollywood can never offer.

Except it got a ridiculous ending that spirals down to nothing that matches to the begining.It's the kind of movie that makes you go WTF!!!! when the credit starts.


There & Back Again
Sometime back, I gave this book to someone as a birthday present. In an odd twist of FATE, it's THERE & BACK AGAIN!!!

When I bought it, it's 10% off the usual price. (Oh so sorry, if the truth hurts you. Yes. I am a cheapskate)
Now I somehow used the 10% I saved to buy the book.

Wasn't it surprising? And I didn't meant to browse!I was there to pick up cotton bud to do some clean up! And there it was! Exposed amount the heap of assorted books like it was waiting for me! Darn! Was there something that FATE wanted me to tell me through the book???? And so I begin reading...nope I am not finished yet.

On one fine Saturday Noon
Oh ya the other day, Joyce brought her newly acquired Boyfriend to show off. Not the best of temper And not enough sleep, I just go and on ridiculing her & her boyfriend. I don't really care how they felt about me. I just want to make clear to her that between me & her, I can take all her nonsense. If there's someone else, she ought to know her limits. if not she had to take "your problem not mine" for an answer later on if there's any over the board jokes.

Cold Bed & a Slightly Warm PS2
What's warming the PS2????DBZ Budokai 3. This is one game that brings the DBZ out of the box. Pity it's a game that had a damage system that can be easily abused but definately suitable for the average Everyman (me).
