A pool for ideas

It's been a while since I last had an entry. I'd just returned from a 2-week break to Milan-Como-Zermatt-Zürich-Lucerne-Amsterdam-Paris. Phew. It's one of those rare occasions when we have a break in the movie calendar. Soon James Bond's Casino Royale will be driving me mad. It's Open Season and I'm going to get a Nightmare Before Christmas as well, with a Curse of the Golden Flower notwithstanding. I just hope The Guardian will watch over me. You see, I have The Covenant to keep with the client. Should I find the time, I'll tell you some Tales from Earthsea. Have I said it before? Seems like Déja Vu. So much for rambling and corny attempts to be funny. I should try harder. sigh. As my good friend would say... HAO LIAN. OK, what I want talk about is the Internet phenomenon called Snakes on a Plane. I just need to have my piece on cyberspace after travelling more than 17 hours (including a stop-over) on a plane (what else?). While so much has been discussed a

Actually I know about this video for a long long time liao and I have all the DVD/VCD books. I like McDull for the following reasons: 1. some parts quite farnie 2. I like 吴君如. My idol. 3. I tink i a bit like McDull.

This is a really funny spoof of the NDP... making a serious ceremony into something so wahahahahahaahahahahahaa. Quality not very good though but I love their IDEAS!

Finally the video is out for the Race on May 13... creating clues, ambigrams, anagrams, etc took me so much time. Lucky no more liao until ANGELS and DEMONS comes along... Don't hate me for doing DVC hor... I'm just doing my job.

This movie is so in line with our upcoming IR thought I get everyone a headstart with this new movie poster. My take? Daniel Craig look so old in the poster leh.... Anyway, this movie opens in Singapore cinemas Nov 16.

This auntie can fight with the Hong Kong Bus Uncle!!! See him here at Youtube you will see many remix variation of his fighting! There's Sammi Cheng version, 十面埋伏 version, Rap version, 黑社会 version, Adagio for Strings version, Sodomy version! This auntie is really EH SAI! Actually can't make out why she did what she did. But she's famous liao. Then again, I've seen SO MANY cases similar to hers.. at the petrol kiosk, at the bus stop, at the taxi stand, at the car park lot, at the bank, at the fast food restaurant... People with money but no Grace.... hmmm where can I find the George Knightleys from Jane Austen's Emma in Singapore? I will find time to do up remix version to support the Singapore auntie version!

My favourite Studio Ghibli has a new animation coming. It will be showing in Singapore cinemas from 28 September. Here's the trailer.

Wah lao... last Saturday was Polling Day. I woke up and like Mr Brown ... went to do many many things. I started at 8am at Toa Payoh and was round the whole island doing something...(secret! cannot say, even though polling day is over) until 2pm. I went to Bedok wanting to eat the nice nice Bak Chor Mee with nice nice ter gnua (No, not the Mr Brown one!) but ended up eating the lao ya 高记 yong tau foo. Usually the latter's not too bad at other branches but this one at Bedok Central was the nua nua type. Then I went to the gym and then I wen to VOTE and then I out to work the ground (i.e. for my movie campaign!) some more. I want to move on to other things besides The Da Vinci Code. My mum did something 'wah-piang' that day. Wanting to make sure she knows how to make a proper cross in the ballot paper, I asked her if she knows how to vote (she's more experienced than I am actually, but she last voted more than 10 years ago, so I thought I want to remind her). she

No. Not the annual type though today is the last day to submit income tax (sad....) I hate doing taxes!!!! Just had a class reunion about 2 months ago with the guys from RI at the school's dining hall. The canteen and the assembly hall had been torn down to make way for (what's new?...) bigger and 'better' premises. I was also back for the RJC Open House. I can't believe elitist education can be so... elitist!

Lester Goh is getting married this May! Met an old friend Gabriel Lim who was my classmate in lower sec in RI as well as my classmate in AJC last 2 weeks. He's a teacher in Jurong Junior College now. Something gripped me to start writing to Esther, another schoolmate from AJC who seems to be having a ball of her life in San Francisco working in a pretty

It's one of the most talk-about and anticipated movie... and I'm already overrun with work for the movie. Just started the online recruitment campaign to get people to break codes to join the islandwide hunt - winning a trip to Europe with "money-can't-buy" experiences (how many times have I repeated this?). My life needs to move on... after creating all the codes and making life miserable for people.... If you want to try you hands at the codes, visit www.dvc.com.sg .

I've been involved in so many projects since 'The Chronicles of Narnia' last year that it almost seemed that I would never live past the next day. Somehow I find that it's time to take stock of the past few months and write them down so that. 1 I don't feel as if life as passed me without my remembering anything 2 My friends, if you read this, you'll understand why I cannot meet up as often as I would like to (That does not mean you should cut me off altogether) 3 Why it's better to write emails to me than to call me in the middle of the day Here goes...
