Saturday, June 05, 2004Something Wicked This Way Comes... Song of the moment: Five For Fighting - Something About You I don't know where to begin I don't know how to get out there to see you I don't know where to dig in. I don't know how to get in there to feel you It's been to long and I'm about to be in time for me It's been to long and I'm in time Baby there's something about you that I can hold on to I'm going to hold on to that Baby there's something about you that I can hold on to I'm going to hold on to that Something About You by Five For Fighting I watched this Summer's most anticipated movie yesterday. I was all in all, a bit disappointed by this installment of the Harry Potter series. For those who have read Prisoner of Azkaban, you'll know that this provides the background for all the future Harry Potter books. With the introduction of Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew (a.k.a the Marauders minus the now deceased James Potter), Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang, it becomes the crucial (having not read book 5, I consider book 3 the most important book in the series) turning point in the Harry Potter universe. With the introduction of Alfonso Cuaron as Director of this particular installment (Goblet of Fire will be helmed by Mike Newell), it adds a distinct, arty flavour which the series badly needs. However, Mister Cuaron sacrifices character development (emphasis on Remus Lupin and the Marauders), historical background and a couple of other important scenes in the book (And with only one short scene of Quidditch in the film, he probably should have taken it out all together). Basically, this film will be a disappointment to all Harry Potter purists out there. (My Rating: 3.5/5 stars. If they had more scenes of Bonnie Wright (a.k.a Ginny Weasley), it would have gotten a 4. ^_^ ) (Note: Next up on my to see movie list are: The Chronicles of Riddick, 13 Going on 30 purely because of Jennifer Garner and Spiderman 2) Despite the slight disappointment of the film, it was nice to see us (Yap Xiong, John, Joshua and myself) together as a group again. Things hasn't been the same since we all went our own ways after Secondary School. I sincerely hope that we all meet up together again, perhaps with a few others like Melvin, Kenneth, Darryl, Bao Loon and Zhu Dong. An hour ago I had just finished recording a certain Tai Pei Ren's official debut on national television. I am also very sure that a certain Lim Shi Jie of MIT 0312 is looking forward to watching the video tape. Although I was hoping she would win (as I otherwise found out somewhere halfway through the show), I was quite surprised she won the first task in Taiwan (No offence, but I thought that guy's (eventual winner) performance was better). However, she looked absolutely stunning in that dress during the formal photo shoot. Great job, Pei Ren!! You definitely put in a lot of effort into your performance. NYP's class MIT 0312 is proud of you!! (Sound of applause) You still have a place in my heart...if you have any problems or worries, I'll do more than my best to help you...Hope you find the one meant for you. |
