Why sooo SERIOUS!!!!!!!!!!

i must say Hellboy wasnt as good as i had hoped it to be... it did have its moments...but it just sizzled off without amounting to much... 6/10 for me because the story was interesting even though it didnt play out as good as it sould have..





Next up was Dark Knight...... i was blown away from the start till the end... Every single aspect of this movie was amazing... everything.... this movie amazingly manage to stuff as much charactor and storyline into it beautifully.. which put other movies like Spiderman 3 and X-men 3 to shame...
And god, they pitted Joker and Batman together on all levels of seriousness ... and they did it well.... i was held to my seat listening to every word.... it was intense.... even the music score was intense...... 10/10


....if there was one thing i wanted to complain, it would be batman's love interest.... i dont think Gyllanhaal did any better then Kathy Homes... oh well thats ok ...since she was just a pawn in the complicated web triangle of Batman, Two Face and of cos Joker... Arrhhhggg!! this movie was so good i watched it twice.... I might even go again.

Hancock was very interesting.... and i must say intriging .....but after coming out of the cinema i wasnt too impressed with it.... mayb i like it because i had low expectations of it an just sat and watched it without thinking about it too much... Well i can tell you one thing... its somewhat an original and fresh take on a new superhero.... 6/10 ...

My wife and i went an watched Sex in the City..... and i was fairly surprised at its very down to earth storyline... i guess thats why so many women out there can relate to the story and charactors, and they woul keep them dear to their hearts. Some movies are better of watched on DVD even if it is good, but I feel SC was still worth the 22 bucks ticket price we paid total.... it was differnately a very good follow up on the hit series... I dont rate girlie movies but if i did...this would get a 6.5/10


yes yes... i know i owe you guys more then a movie review.... bah!! :P

The Will to Blog and Peanut Sauce

wow... is that been how long since i actually wrote something on my blog.... well the last few dont count because its just a slide of my recent assignments and a titter-tatter on one of my paper creations ....


hmmmmmmm where do i start.... .... Summer is upon us all... ok i guess it doesnt apply to us in malaysia but it does so to many of our friends over the seas who are studying .... so most were down for their holidays.... but if youre studying in the land down under then u'd be down for winter. Ok now im confused ....where am i going with this... oh right... friends ...down for the holidays... yeah so it was catch up time .... The two D'Rozario sisters, both studying on opposite corners of the world were back after a long long time apart... 2 years i think... so we had a small do at our place... i tell you those two ah so sweet lah... such loving sisters.... really missed veron's facial expressions too lah...kekeke so funny one... we where supposed to watch a movie on the telly but we landed up just chatting the night away....



Its started off all sane and all,... but then it all went insane after that...

Veron won the body arching competition but.......... donovan won the funny face competition...



...others were getting hungry.........







Next was Miss Karen...i mean Dr Karen whom i also havent seen in two years..... ah miss giggles is still the same but im sure now she would be the only one in the room who cld save me if i had a paper cut.... maybe its just me but its funny how we only realize how much we miss people when their back.....


We took an impromptu ride to PD because Karen hadnt seen the beach for yonks.... Been a long time since i went on a spur of the moment long drive...... it was just like old times when G and myself would hop into our cars and take a drive to wherever with whom ever who wanted to follow us.... if you ever saw a white kancil and a mustard yellow vw beetle driving along a lonely road... well that would have been us....

We reached there in time for dinner where we settle in to eat at a place called El Rancho.... it was a nice place more so for its ambiance.... u can even hear the sea even thought its across the road.



managed to catch up with a few rounds of pool....


Check out the two chinese dudes at the head of the table.....

Awe..... this little fiat 500 has seen better days........


taking a walk on the beach ........ its hard to hold a camera still for 30 seconds to take this shot....

wokay... time to go home......... try not to get sand in the car yeah....


ok i wrote the above like almost a month ago.... still havent had the mood to write .... and my internet line is still like shit.... calling the Streamyx, Telekom Malaysia help line is like Bruce Banners short cut to turning into the HULK if he ever had trouble doing so....

Customer Service in Malaysia.... is one of a kind lah..... out of the six times i called in a span of one and a half months only once did i get someone who made sense and i had spent the lease amount of time explaning my problem with him........ but it doesnt help when got him on my very first call to Streamyx........sigh!!! .... every other call just got worst and worst.... I am thinking of going to the counter get it solved .... hopefully my blood pressure wont be affected this time...

Shanti is back for three weeks...... and she insisted on good Sea Food and Satay... so we headed to South Pacific for dinner... I must say i enjoyed the dinner too... They serve up some nice prawns and the Satay was pretty good too ...Although it was a bit strange that they dont serve it with the peanut sauce.... When asked they said that it is marinated with the sauce..... Interesting... although it would have been nice to dip it in more peanut sauce...
Dono bought a new board game, Betrayal at House on the Hill....yes thats what its really called.. anyway, Dono and Shanti came over and we had a game….. it was interesting but complicated .... even thought i was sleepy ..I still enjoyed myself.... well maybe because its something different from Scene It, Risk & Monopoly....
Caught a number of movies these couple of MOvies .... like Hellboy 2 and Dark Knight.... the latter being for me the best movie of 2008... oh well im gettinig sleepy.... i better just click Publish before i forget and another week just passes by......... nite..
