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

all kinds.

The Day After Tomorrow [Eng][Movie]
An excellent example of excellent entertainment minus the logic. This is a movie essentially about bad weather and what it will do to humanity, the good, the bad and the ugly. Acting wise, everybody was wonderful because this movie doesn't need actors, just actors who can cope with all the special effects. My favourite segment in terms of acting is of course the Scottish counterpart, led by "Bilbo Baggins" himself who plays a professor in I think climatology (if there is such a term). The way the Scottish/Irish/British died with such quiet dignity without much tears or fear (and a brandy in hand), I find that particular scene very moving. As with the tradition of all Emmerich's films, we have international locations, people of various colours and races, I find all these very welcoming, in the sense that when bad things happen, all are equal. I especially like the fact that they all took shelter in the public library which teaches me one important lesson; when faced with bad weather and cold climate, always take shelter in a library because that way, if cold you can burn all the books. Not in a Malaysian library though, you will freeze to them in maybe an hour. We don't have much books. MPH or Kinokinuya will be a good choice. And go to a high ground. As in the tradition of all disaster movies, a best friend will die, the hero will save the girl (and get the girl), a father will get to his son (though he can't do much to change the weather), lovers in the midst of love making will eventually die horrifically, the dog will always, ALWAYS survive and in the end, there is always hope. My most favourite scene is the one where the president of America made that wonderful speech about humility and thanking Mexico for allowing Americans, now refugees to run into Mexico to seek shelter in warmer climate. The final scene was the Earth, the nothern hemisphere covered in snow whilst the southerns hemisphere ... clear blue sky. Put it this way; Malaysia will survive and we will have Genting Highland climate for the next few hundred years.
The great thing about this movie, other than the fact it is a true blue disaster movie is the spectacular special effects. You have to watch it in a cinema, if not at least a TV with a very wide big screen. I was in awe, and the suspense was very good. I watched it in a ciname and I was totally concentrating and screaming at all the right scenes. Story wise, there's really nothing, and though it lacks real substance, it more than made up for it in the soul department. Yes, as strange as it may sound, I find this movie moving with lots of heart and soul in it. I also like the portrayal of the American President in a very positive humbling way. Anyway Perry King is in this movie, nothing much to do.
Movie mistakes galore though. For one, after the cold climate freezes the door, the next scene Dennis Quaid enters the room without much difficulty. Not even a puch, just open the door and in he goes.
Rating
Watch it, don't miss this gem. Forget logic, just enjoy the spectacle of it all. I think I will give this movie a  for its pure entertainment value.
