Memento Mori, Carpe Diem!
There you go.. another 30 movies completed for the month of February.. Babylon 5 : The Lost Tales – Voices In The Dark (2007) Babylon 5 is arguably one of the best science fiction series created (right after Star Trek in my opinion). Unfortunately, I never had the privilege to follow every single season faithfully, [...]

After being particularly confident that Viggo Mortensen would win the award for Best Actor in Eastern Promises, I was a little surprised when the Oscar went to Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood instead.

Went with Faz and Pui Ling to catch Aliens vs Predator 2 : Requiem on Saturday morning.. . An extremely tired Faz fell asleep during the movie despite the seat shaking THX sound effects, Pui Ling spent the entire movie semi-covering her face to avoid seeing too much gore and scares, while I silently cheered [...]

I’ve watched exactly 100 movies over the course of 6.5 months! And my Top 5 Movie Picks for 2007 goes to : 1. 300 I know I know, it’s ‘brainless’, but I can’t deny that it provided me the most fun moments, unforgettable lines and memorable scenes for 2007. It was also the most satisfying [...]

Yeah I know.. it’s been two full weeks of silence at this blog – most of which I spent doing stuff not really worth putting up here.. stuff like work, surfing & facebooking, a lil boardgaming, lots of cybercafe with our recent COD4 addiction… And a lot of movies – 1 or 2 of which [...]
