Hey, update on the movie links on my sites !!!

For fans of Keira Knightly, look out for her in King Arthur as the ever pretty Guinevere.
Ashton Kutcher's starring in The Butterfly Effect. Seldom see him in a serious role. Story line doesn't seem tt bad. Which other show was there that mentioned the butterfly effect, anyone knows?
Kill Bill Vol. II 's trailer is out.

Anyway, watched The Last Samurai with Willie last night. (*btw willie, made a mistake about the john woo bit. He directed Paycheck, got kinda confused with the 2 movies, sorry) Was quite nice. I found it a nice touch (disappointing for some reasons) that Tom Cruise, towards the end of th show didn't bonk the babe (Koyuki) Taka (which me and willie were and expecting... or mayb just me). Which I think in most shows we would expect but think it's good. Kinda fits the feel of the movie. Which i think it's great. I mean, we got enuff Jap bonking on the internet already so guess dun really need more in Hollywood.

Very touching and movin. Kinda can feel the heartache and pain of the emotional scenes. Like the battle scenes and all. Honour and all. Which when one thinks about it, there isn't much opportunity to practice it in this day and age. Anyway, the movie wasn't bad though there were some parts where the shots look more grainish which I don't understand. It's like they used a different film stock or something. Just looked wrong. I mean, it's like, one shot, looks ok, then when change angle, it seems different. Anyway, the music was great. Though sounded like Pearl Harbour's soundtrack. Then again, it is afterall Hans Zimmer composing again. Kinda sounding the same. Ending was kinda strange but I guess, I couldn't really think of a better one. Least they never end with them in bed or something. Gee... after being in acting and directing and seeing Kym Campbell a lil. Kinda impressed by how Tom Cruise acted. Esp after the battle. Think it was nice. Though maybe for him, it comes as second nature. Nevertheless... Was nice. Jap Emperor... very realistic... Really can't speak english for nuts. Least we don't wonder why every other Jap can speak english.

Found one part a lil like Yojimbu. In the street scene where Tom Cruise fought wif Four assailants. Thot it seemed like Yojimbu. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyway, watchin early morning shows are kinda nice. Not so crowded though there were still some irritating people toking through the show. Met Christina Mok at Cine. She was waiting outside theatre six. Thot got some skool thing going on.. Like some special screening. But then again, who was i kidding, it was friggin 2 in the mornin. She was kinda surprised that I was catching sucha late show. Go figure.. I mean, she's there too.

Before the movie, me and willie played billiard. Been a long time since we both played. Last I played was wif Alvin at Pool World. Anyway, was there playing again. Think willie had a bad day yesterday... Shan't elaborate. But nevertheless... was a nice game for both of us. Least there were still babes to check out despite it being late and all.

Dunno whether meeting the guys today or not.. See how. Amy's going for bbq. Ain't sure should stay home and study or wad.. mayb today go out.. tomorrow stay home study or something.. Tt'd be a good idea. Anyhoo...Best get started on work. Slacked half the noon away liao... Cya guys soon.
