This website, which is an opinion based website is fueled in part by your active participation either by submission of your reviews/stuff or your comments in any post, reviews, section, etc where you can find the POST A COMMENT feature.

YOUR Q's FOR MY A's

There is a FAQ [MAIN] database in this website where you will find info on how to link to this website, answers to some tech problems found in pages within this website as well as a great feature where you can post questions in relevant categories & I'll answer them. Try it out!


SELECTED POSTS

This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is actually the index page of this website has grown into a huge database of my almost daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to my heart, including gossips of the most sordid kind. For your convenience, I have posted a list of posts which I thought is pretty informative in my own way that you might find interesting. The list itself may be long but those selected few are the ones I thought drives home the point I wanted to make. Do check them out in MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].


SERIES' SUMMARIES

Sometime in 2004 I began reviewing selected series in an episode by episode way, where I called these reviews EPISODIC THOUGHTS. These thoughts are mostly summaries of each and every episode with my opinion of that episode included in it as well. I may not provide the most in depth summaries but I am very proud of the fact that I could keep the writing on such a long winded basis each and every night for the entirety of the series. I don't do this for each and every series though because it kills a lot of brain cells, mine as well as fellow netizens who often joined in the discussion by posting informative stuff. These thoughts are still open for feedback and discussion. Do check them all out in REVIEWS where it is indicated with an  [E] next to my name.


OFFBEAT STUFF

There is this one section in here that features offbeat stuff that are not entertainment based. The section is known as FUNN STUFF [COMMENTS & OPINIONS].

 
PERSONAL FAVOURITES

There are 3 sections in here that contain my personal favourites of all kinds. THE DDGs [COMMENTS & OPINIONS] which features specially made websites by myself with info & all related stuff of my favourite stars or stars I like to talk about, MEDIA & MUSIC FILES [DOWNLOADS] which has my favourite VODs and music files, most of them are taken from Chinese & Korean dramas & movies and some of which I am hosting for my net friends and THE STORYTELLERS [WEBSITES], where you'll find stories written by amateur writers like you and I.

Do check them all out!

Oscars! 
Permanent link Post a Comment

The speeches were lame but Billy Crystal totally rock! I especially love his songs and dance routine, that movie trailer (very funny) and of course his jibes such as "It is now official; there is no one left to thank in New Zealand"! I love that Robin Williams segment and my most favourite of all, Jack Black and the other guy I am not that familiar with. Their song routine, funny BUT so excellent that can put all professional singers to shame. I am beginning to love Jack Black after watching his excellent performance in School Of Rock and of course listening to his band, Tenacious D!

Anyway, I am very happy Sean Penn won. Those few clips showed his powerful angst ridden acting, and I felt his grief. I was veru surprised he came! And I do like his acceptance speech. Many complained Bill Murray should have won. I disagree. Bill Murray was not excellent and Lost In Translation is at best experimental-ish. And I dislike Scarlett Johansen (?) as I felt her performance was just ok and in real life, she came across as arrogant. Already so young and already so pompous. Johnny Depp or Sir Neg Kingsley would have gotten my vote if Sean Penn wasn't nominated.

As for Charlize Theron, I maintain making yourself ugly, gaining a few pounds and all doesn't really make you a great actress overnight but definitely gimmick sells. I dislike a movie that may glorify or even make us sympathise with who is essentially a cold blooded serial killer. If that is the case, Ralph Fiennes should have won years ago for Schindler's List.

As for Tim Robbins, very happy for him. Renee is Renee, people like her. I agree though Nicole Kidman should not be nominated because she was horrible in Cold Mountain. Why is it that they must find one Australian and one British to play Southeners??

Finding Nemo won! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! I am pissed though that Brother Bear's song wasn't nominated and School of Rock's theme was also ignored. In its place we have 2 Cold Mountain's song which were dead boring. And that French animation's song, was the woman singing in French or in English? Can't make out what she was singing. Definitely Annie Lennox deserved the win.

Though Hugo Weaving, Orlando Bloom and Viggo Mortensen weren't there,almost everybody else from LOTR was there. I felt the sincere friendship. Anyway I love the fact that LOTR: ROTK won everything. Some actors should have been nominated as well but well, can't have it all.

Anyway, I love the show. The speeches may not have the brilliance that we always see and hear in Michael Caine's speeches, I felt the jokes were brilliant, smart and the presenters, many of them were in their element.

Did you enjoy the Oscars? My prediction was quite accurate you know. I think I got it all right except for Best Original Screenplay. Did you see Bill Murray's face when Sean Penn's name was called? I feel Sean Penn deserved the win for simply because he is a great actor. I never thought Bill Murray was funny or dramatic. But pity though, his only chance and he lost.
