On the eve of the Chong Yang Festival, golden flowers fill the Imperial Palace. The EMPEROR (Chow Yun Fat) returns unexpectedly with his second son, PRINCE JAI (Jay Chou). His pretext is to celebrate the holiday with his family, but given the chilled relations between the Emperor and the ailing EMPRESS (Gong Li), this seems disingenuous.
For many years, the Empress and CROWN PRINCE WAN (Liu Ye), her stepson, have had an illicit liaison. Feeling trapped, Prince Wan dreams of escaping the palace with his secret love CHAN (Li Man), the Imperial Doctor's daughter.
Meanwhile, Prince Jai, the faithful son, grows worried over the Empress's health and her obsession with golden chrysanthemums. Could she be headed down an ominous path?
The Emperor harbors equally clandestine plans; the IMPERIAL DOCTOR (Ni Dahong) is the only one privy to his machinations. When the Emperor senses a looming threat, he relocates the doctor's family from the Palace to a remote area.
While they are en route, mysterious assassins attack them. Chan and her mother, JIANG SHI (Chen Jin) are forced back to the palace. Their return sets off a tumultuous sequence of dark surprises.
Amid the glamour and grandeur of the festival, ugly secrets are revealed. As the Imperial Family continues its elaborate charade in a palatial setting, thousands of golden armored warriors charge the palace. Who is behind this brutal rebellion? Where do Prince Jai's loyalties lie? Between love and desire, is there a final winner?
Against a moonlit night, thousands of chrysanthemum blossoms are trampled as blood spills across the Imperial Palace.
"A bumbling security guard at the Museum of Natural History accidentally lets loose an ancient curse that causes the animals and insects on display to come to life and wreak havoc."
Surprising, it's a damm nice movie.
The first 30min or so may seem kinda draggy, but it's there to let us know the down side of the male lead.
When he entered the museum as a night guard, all hell break loose.
Plot a bit stupid. nevertheless, it's a good PG flim.
Do catch it when you guys feel the mood for some cracking laughter.

ERAGON, a fantasy adventure for young people based on the phenomenally successful novel by Christopher Paolini – the first book in the young author’s epic Inheritance Trilogy – is a timeless yet modern tale.
The book’s most fantastical character – a flying dragon named Saphira – arrives via the high-tech wizardry of the industry’s most honored visual effects houses: WETA Digital (the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "King Kong") and Industrial Light & Magic (the "Star Wars" films, "Jurassic Park"). In addition, WETA created ERAGON’s climactic and massive battle scene, in which the forces of good, led by the young Dragon Rider Eragon and Saphira, battle the armies of the evil King Galbatorix.
For over two millennia, dragons have been – depending on the culture and times – beloved, feared, or even worshipped. Today, the mythical creatures are a mainstay of pop culture. ERAGON’s Saphira is inspired by the rich heritage of the storied winged creatures, but for the first time, the power of state-of-the-art computer generated imagery brings myth to photo-real, emotional life. What "Jurassic Park" was to dinosaurs, ERAGON is to dragons. Indeed, Saphira is a step beyond the dinosaurs of "Jurassic Park," as her facial imagery conveys thoughts and feelings.
SPOILERS BELOW
Obviously, some kid named ERAGON was supposed to be the LAST DRAGON RIDER (notice how ERAGON the name was derived from DRAGON. i suppose his offspings will be named FRAGON,GRAGON,HRAGON,IRAGON,JRAGON etc...)
Storyline quite ok, kinda reminds me of LOTR with the presence of ELVES and URUKAI-ALIKE (as in same amount of disguisting, gruntings, savage-ness) just that our evil minions here looks more like WWE DROPOUTS.
Boy find blue stone, stone hatch into a mini dragon, boy hear some cock tail story and tries to teach baby dragon fly. suddenly dragon grow damm big and can talk heart to heart wif boy. cock tail story teller come and evacuate boy from Urukai-wanna be from killing, cock tail story teller begun to teach some elvish language to boy, suddenly boy can cast many spells.
cock tail story die while saving boy from baddy wiz, boy regret his action. reach the 'rebel camp' wear shinny armor and tok kok wif dragon before battle. dragon spit fire to says ok. boy starts to bbq baddie minions. baddy wiz summon some ulu ulu black dust monster and rides it. boy rides dragon and fight. baddy monstor bites dragon. boy stab baddy wiz in the heart, the wiz die.
boy heal dragon, become hero, and MIGHT win the elvish princess heart.
(end of ERAGON)
haiz.. eragon II better be more entertaining. we paid $$ to watch the show one lei.. but the quality shown kana sai.
Singlish is an English-based creole language native to Singapore. It is the first language of many younger Singaporeans, especially those whose parents do not share a native language or dialect, and is the second language of nearly all the rest of the country's residents.
The vocabulary of Singlish consists of words originating from English, Hokkien, Cantonese, Malay, and to a lesser extent various other Indic and Sinitic languages, while Singlish syntax resembles southern varieties of Chinese. Also, elements of American and Australian slang have come through from imported television series.
Singlish is closely related to Manglish of neighbouring Malaysia.
The Singaporean government currently discourages the use of Singlish in favour of Standard English as it believes in the need for Singaporeans to be able to effectively communicate with the other English users in the world. The government runs the Speak Good English Movement to emphasize the point.

As the tiny red dot is growing in both economically and socially, we see a tend of rising in costing and expentiture,
take one example : chicken rice used to be few cents, then 1.50 and now, we see from $2.00 to some $20++ ~~ $30++ in fancy restaurant
this morning, i happen to be at one of the hospital in the tiny read dot.
registered via 10am, it says average time of waiting was around 45min.
ok, 45min compared to a polyclinic's waiting time.. let's say avg 90min?
that's relentively ok, comparing the prices we pay for hosp is way more then what we pay for polyclinic (i somehow remembering paying $4~6 bucks in my sec school era in polyclinic, and somewhat 15~20bucks in certain nice and fancy hosp, and maybe close to 30bucks for private clinic)
45min? yea, i could wait for it.
tick tock tick tock, the clock goes clicking. 120min had went by, i had finished a nice movie by HBO and still in awe that my number had not been called yet.
30min later, i see pple with not much problem entering the room x that i was suppose to wait my number for.
as i have some stuff on in the afternoon, i polietly asked the doctor if it was ok to attend to me for i've been waiting like 150min?
my respect for the doctors, coz they had to studied lots and lots to earn their place in this small lil red dot. not forgetting to mention they do import docs( i think) from overseas.
the doc's reply? "PATIENT with life threatening cases will be attended first. you will have to WAIT"
ok.. pple with runny nose gets to be attended before me, pple with sore eyes get to attended before me.. and you see all them as life threatening cases? so much for everything.
disappointed, astoned by what the doctor said. i simply left the hosp and turned to a private doctor whom attended to me after 10 min of waiting and i collected my medicine 5min after i left the room.
20 year-old identical twins from Brisbane Australia, Jess and Lisa Origliasso blend natural born singing and songwriting talent, looks to kill and a lifetime of performing experience to create an off the hook, irresistibly appealing debut album. If it all sounds too good to be true, The Secret Life Of The Veronicas, their dynamic Sire Records debut album kicks the "Wow Factor" up a notch or two. Simply put, The Veronicas bear no resemblance to your standard prepackaged teen dream. Tough and edgy with hooks and harmonies to spare, the Veronica's deliver a sound and lyrics that rock with the sheer joy of free spirits on the prowl, ready to take over the planet.
It gets better. Born on Christmas Day, for real, with a bond so strong they regularly finish each other's sentences, Jess and Lisa possess a wealth of show business skills, honed over fifteen years of live performing. Do the math, these girls began entertaining at the age of five, serving an apprenticeship which quickly made the stage their second home. It's that seemingly effortless ability to connect with an audience that's become a Veronica's trademark.
By their mid-teens, Jess and Lisa, drawing from influences as wide ranging as Roy Orbison and AC/DC, formed The Veronicas and began experimenting with everything from rock to hip hop to R&B, before hitting on a distinctive musical hybrid anchored by a unique harmonic blend found only in familial greats like the Everly Brothers and Oasis. It must be in the genes!
Signed to an exclusive production deal with Engine Room on the strength of their very first demo, Jess and Lisa spent the next year creating an impressive catalog of over fifty songs, many of which were written in collaboration with a Who's Who of world-class composers. Such was the buzz surrounding the pair that they were invited to work with proven hit makers the likes of Billy Steinberg (Madonna), Clif Magness (Avril Lavigne) and Rick Nowels (Dido). With songwriting jaunts to London, Los Angeles, NYC and Vancouver, Stockholm and points between, The Veronicas compiled an impressive collection of songs.
With a reputation for cutting edge music, Sire Records flipped for The Veronicas and the girls returned the kudos by signing on board. Work immediately began in Los Angeles on their major label debut, utilizing a team of top-flight producers that included, among others, Max Martin (Britney Spears), Don Gilmore (Linkin Park), Dr. Luke (Kelly Clarkson) and Toby Gad (Enrique Iglesias). "We were given a one-in-a-billion shot," Jess remarks. "...And we were determined to deliver," Lisa finishes.
That determination has resulted in The Secret Life Of The Veronicas, one of the most dazzling debut albums in recent musical memory, highlighting twelve tracks written and produced by, with and for The Veronicas. The Secret Life Of The Veronicas spotlights such standout cuts as "Revolution," "Mouth Shut," "When It All Falls Apart" and "Everything I'm Not" along with their scorching new single "4ever."

While having DINNER at Eastpoint Mall, KFC today at 1914Hrs, This was the conversation that i happened to overheard (not that i wanted to, but the lady was talking DAMM LOUD)
Person 1 Lady (MDM TAN) she was blabbing her mouth away on the phone, being the one sitting next table to them, it's hard not the hear her.
Person 2 Kid (Cheese Kiddo) since i dun have his name, i shall name him as Cheese Kiddo, for he was having a small container(shld be the x-container of the whip potato) of melted cheese to go with his chicken.
Mdm Tan (MT for short), Cheese Kiddo (CK for short)
MT: you must not slap her now, if you slap her now, people will say you CK: *nod* MT: you must be very nice to her, wait for one week or two, then you find chance to slap her CK: *eatting and listening* MT: When you slap her, you must tell that it's an accident, you were swinging your arms and her head happened to be there CK *nods some more and eat* MT: Like that people will not think you purpously want to slap her
i was so =.=' when i overheard this damm loud 'conversation' .
how could any parent teach their kid this type of thing? Instead of installing/drilling the correct sets of values / morals into kids. CK is now being teach how to slap people and prolly get away with it because mummy say so.
so, what does the kid grows up thinking? It's ok to slap people and pretend to be an accident.
so next time he MIGHT try and error all kinds of things, he rapes a girl and tell the judge that it's not his fault. he was just swinging his genital and the girl just happen to be there ?
or he killed someone and says to the judge that he was training for paintball warfare and the stupid kuku just happen to be there and deserve to be shot?
or he rob a bank and tells the judge that the bank just happen to be there for him?
NO NO NO! dammit, the poor kid's moral value is totally RUNIED. no thanks to the MOTHER of his (MDM TAN) for handing the WRONG sets of values to their kids.
If you are not going to bring the kid properly in the first place, why give birth to him?
DISGUISTED.
ps: i did took a photo of MT and CK, but i'm not going to post it up here. Same for the Video that i recorded down.
Now that's what we're really talking about. Caught it just now @ TM with Jas.
It was SUPPOSED to be with Alson,Aaron,Dion,Jeremy
End up Alson and Dion scurry off to accompany girlfriend
Jeremy went to airport, aaron... no idea.
i was kinda notified @ 8+pm that it's cancelled. thank you guys (with a lil hint of sarcasm)
so, really glad to have caught it with jas, got to caught up with her about evenful stuffs,
and guess what? i saw MR.LIM CHIN LIANG (note the addressing, MR) after the show ended. The blissful Civilian.
Back to the show, wasn't really bad. Storyline damm cut short (88min movie)
Storyline : 6/10 hot babes : 8/10 Kick Ass Scene: 7/10 Lame-ness: 5/10 Devon Aoki : 10/10 Holly Valance: 11/10
Well, that kinda sums it up.
Fav bit of the movie, the ENDING part
"Helena" : hey, the guy in the second row is kinda cute "Christine" : oh man, is there a guy that you wun have a crush on? "Katsumi" : you can have him anytime, what about the other 300? "Tina" : let's just split them up among us 5 babes drew sword -end-
damm sad. they could have come up with another better ending. but i guess holly valance and devon aoki made up to the sucky ending.
Got this from feliza. And decided to share this funny story with you guys for some light-hearted laugh! --------------------------------------------------------- Everybody I know who has a dog usually calls him "Rover" or "Boy." I call mine "Sex." Now, Sex has been very embarrassing to me.
When I went to the City Hall to renew his dog license, I told the clerk that I would like a license for Sex. He said, "I'd like to have one too." Then I said, "You don't understand. I've had Sex since I was nine years old." He said, "You must have been quite a kid!"
When I got married and went on my honeymoon, I took the dog with me. I told the hotel clerk that I wanted a room for my wife and me, and a special room for Sex. He said, "Every room in the place is for sex." I said, "You don't understand. Sex keeps me awake at night." The clerk said, "Me too."
One day I entered Sex in a contest, but before the competition began, the dog ran away. Another contestant asked me why I was just looking around. I told him I had planned to have Sex in the contest. He told me that I should have sold tickets. "But you don't understand," I said, "I had hoped to have Sex on T.V." He called me a show-off.
When I decided to get married, I told the pastor that I would like to have Sex at the wedding. He told me to wait until after the wedding was over. I said, "But Sex has played a big part in my life and my whole world revolves around Sex." He said he didn't want to hear about my personal life and would not marry us in his church. I told him everyone would enjoy having Sex at the wedding. The next day we were married at the Justice of the Peace. My family is barred from the church from then on.
When my wife and I separated, we went to court to fight for custody of the dog. I said, "Your Honor, I had Sex before I was married." The judge said, "Me too." Then I told him that after I was married, Sex left me. He said, "Me too."
Last night Sex ran off again. I spent hours looking around town for him. A cop came over to me and asked, "What are you doing in the alley at 4 o'clock in the morning?" I said, "I'm looking for Sex."
My case comes up Friday. Well now I've been thrown in jail, been divorced and had more damn troubles with that dog than I ever foresaw.
Why just the other day when I went for my first session with the psychiatrist, she asked me, "What seems to be the trouble?" I replied, "Sex has been my best friend all my life but now it has left me forever. I couldn't live any longer so lonely." And the doctor said, "Look mister, you should understand that sex isn't a man's best friend, so get yourself a dog."
