Initial D

For those who knoe me, i hate to watch mandarin films... Unless im forced and being dragged to e cinemas by my bfs... Oh well, my last 3 bfs all seem to love chinese shows, and i never understand y... To me, it was a guaranteed disappointment and plus its definately not worth e money...

Rarely, i haf to watch chinese films as well wif my mum, like Kung Fu... But kung fu still not tt bad... However, things never picked up for hong kong industry after all e old classics like chinese ghost story 1 & 2, all e Jet Li's Huang Fei Hong show, etc, u get e idea... All those old classics, excellent storyline, great casts and believable special effects...

Now, its jus pure disappointment, i never understand wat happened to all e famous directors and producers... Famous producer, Xu Ke, had a whole mile apart on e standards of his current films compared to his old ones... Wat happened man!!!

Right now, its either poser shows casted by lousy new age actors and actresses, or its super 3D effects budget film wif unbelievable and cheap effects like Feng Yun, Shu Shan Zuan, Zhong Hua Ying Siong, Shaolin Soccer, or many other cheesy love stories...

I wasnt impressed wif Turn Left Turn Right, even though it was so over rated by so many others... I mean, come on, e story's so predictable, e cast werent excellent except for their gd looks... I didnt ever tear abit given e fact tt i cry easily over films... Its easy to make me cry, for those who knoes me, i cry over e slightest touchin moments... Like Windstruck, gosh, tis is one show tt made me cry and cry and cry... It even made guys cry... How great is tt... But tts a Korean film, as always, Korea always manages to capture ppl's heart wif their heart warming movies... Thumbs up! I still cry after watchin it repeatedly...

But to give some credit, some shows tt tried to be artistic and creativity, like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Hero, Kung Fu, they did however, managed to pull it off and make my money jus worth it... Even though china film industry is pickin up, it somehow still loses e kind of spirit tt was once in films... Ppl try too hard to be artistic, try too hard to make twists, try too hard to be creative, try too hard to make poser films tt sometimes, it jus doesnt work...

SOmetimes, ppl tend to complicate things too much when they try to be wannabes... Old classics were simple but yet they were entertaining... I believe ppl nowadays dun even stop and look back and think of y it was so, then... Sad...

Oh, not forgettin all e horror but not horror chinese films tt they made, ppl ended up laughin instead... e 3 episodes of The Eye? Yah, u get wat i meant...

I am not biased, ive watched enough films to pass judgement... Sure, ive watched quite a no. of crappy el films, like recently, Cursed was a crappy one... However, ppl make up wif blockbusters... Great shows like e epics, Titanic, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Lord Of E Rings, Gladiator, etc... Dun even bring in e budget issues, money does not solve any storyline probs...

I dun watch e stars, i watch e story... In fact, most of e time, i dun even noe who e cast is... Simple movies like 50 First Dates can already superceed Turn Left Turn Right a million times...

Having said all tt, theres a new chinese film coming up tt i wan to watch...

Yea, its INITIAL D...

Nope, not becoz of Jay Chou, in fact, i was so disappointed when i heard he was chosen... Not coz of Edison as well...

But coz,

Its one of my fav jap anime, i haf INITIAL D Stage 1-3, Stage 4 i only haf about e 1st 4 episodes...

Im extremely curious at e car scenes, its looks great in e trailers... Yea, i like to watch car racing films, they r so cool... For old shows, i like Lie Huo Zhan Ce 2, starring Ekin Cheng, young Zhang Bo Zhi and a sexy female star tt i love... She is truly sexy, but she died in e 1st 10 mins of e show... I love Fast & Furious as well, however, e 1st one was excellent, but e second one was complete crap, to think i actually waited for it... So im still fair...

I jus talked to Shuzhen, she wans to watch it too, coz of e stars... Shes a big fan of Jay... SHe had never watched e anime before, which is gd for her... So she wouldnt noe wat to expect and might not be disappointed... Im kind of surprised tt she wans to watch, coz it was a car show, but of coz, she didnt noe wat to expect... Keep it tt way, its better...

I seriously hope tt they dun screw it up... Hope hope hope... Even though i noe they will, but we'll see, i'll give them e benefit of e doubt... I will make sure i dun walk out of e cinema halfway thru crappy shows anymore... Having Huang Qiu Sheng as e main lead's Dad is already a joke to me... Wat crap... Oh, btw, e father in e anime never ever open his eyes, dun ask me y...

I wonder who star my fav character... Hope its not Edison, he doesnt look like him... Hes too short n young... But i dun wish to find out more, i wan to see everythin at e show, so ya, we'll see...

I watched Mr And Mrs SMith tt day... I didnt really wan to watch it, coz i noe its another poser show, but Shuzhen wanted to watch it before, so we went, but later realised tt we both werent interested in e show, jus when we r outside e cinema door... Haha, nvm lah, i told her, usually for shows tt both persons dun wish to watch, it usually will turn out better than expected...

Ya, and it sure did... Wasnt fantastic, but gd enuff to be funny n entertaining... Oh, Angelina Jolie is so sexy gorgeousl... Tis is e 1st time i see her as a sizzlin hot woman... Heh, Tomb Raider was crap...

Yea, im gonna be playin BADMINTON later in e morning, e last i went was wif my ex company... And then, will catch a movie, Ice Princess, i haf no idea wats tt about... Supposedly an inspirational comedy show, i love inspirational shows, but some r rather crappy... And then afterwards to east coast for cyclin and then to sea gazing n beachin out... It was suppposed to be a SPORTS DAY for us, but we couldnt think of more stuffs to do... Yah, so excited...
