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

MEDIA & MUSIC FILES
[DOWNLOADS]

VODs and music files,
most of them are taken

of which I am hosting
for my net friends and

Comments On The WIng of Desire & Power of Love Permanent link ▫ ▫
Channel U's Power of Love
38 episodes of high drama, love, passion, same old plot but in a very good package. I got all these from just viewing the screencaps! I really look forward to watching it and I hope someone will write a review for it, good or bad.
The last episode was very dramatic in my opinion and for one a series which doesn't really have what ifs as the ending. Straightforward and wrapped up 100%. Do have a look at these few screencaps taken by Wuchang:-
EPISODE 38 - FINAL - 1
EPISODE 38 - FINAL - 2
EPISODE 38 - FINAL - 3
EPISODE 38 - FINAL - 4
More here at SPCNET - Power of Love
I also downloaded a few episodes of this series. The plot is nothing new, it's sad, it's poignant, seen through the eyes of the illegitimate son who contracted a deadly disease from his mom, it's even a potential tear jerker. BUT the ending is highly positive though ALD is really a very very pessimistic disease (same disease as in the movie, Lorenzo's Oil which was a tear jerker). Like I said I love the children's performances though. The girl who played Coco is my favourite but I realise the boy who played Yongheng gave a very mature perfomance. I think I have seen about 3 or 4 episodes and it is early to past judgment but I can't help it. The screencaps basically told the entire story. Esther was wonderful of course as the suffering wife, suffering mom, suffering step mom. Her voice dubbing though was annoyingly perky.
Yes yes, my obsession with Shaun Chen continues. Love him in here, and I love all the passionate scenes. A pity the webmaster stopped posting the video files for this series, I would have loved to watch the wedding scene.
I hope the VCD comes out soon. I plan to post all the screencaps in this website soon as a tribute to this series WHICH I HAVE YET TO REALLY WATCH.
Funny isn't it? Somehow not watching a series makes the series even better! I should do that with TVB series, especially the dismal Greed Mask and the rather ridiculous Legend Of Love. Didn't even bother to watch the lather. As for Greed Mask, I stopped caring who killed that old man because this series tries hard to be an intelligent mystery series but comes out awfully bland and unexciting. I skipped it to watch Olympics which had more drama (mind you I was watching DIVING) than this series (whch had new suspect every 10 minutes and not one solution).
Anyway do give Power of Love a chance. Shaun Chen is drool worthy or if you like pick any other guys in this series.
Shaun, are you reading this? Do you know English? Just to tell you, you have a fan in me. Don't be bothered by the backlash!
MediaWorks! Are you reading this? Do some online promo for this series lar! Wuchang did a better job at promoting this series than the producers themselves.
MediaCorp's The Wing of Desire
The story is overblown, the casting not very drool worthy, got 2 who can't act, one who looks to old and too drunk to play a desirable man, but 2 women who can really act. The performance is getting better and better, and the jealousy, intrigue and sibling rivalry gets deeper and deeper because of one man. I like the script of this series, because it's very real. I would have acted the way Jiaxuan acted actually. Jiaxuan is a very annoying possessive bitchy woman and Danchuan a very nice girl but I can't help but stand by Jiaxuan. Imagine you have everything and one day this half sister suddenly appeared and said, I want to be your sis, please and yet proceed to cry at your engagement party because he wants you guy! How do you feel? Very real emotions, very real words, very ugly fight makes very exciting drama. Greed Mask with all its murders, confusing identities, supernatural stuff and mystery can't match the jealous and angry words of Jiaxuan to Danchuan. Almost ran her down with her car! Woo hoo!
Good series in my opinion. By the way anyone knows if MediaCorp has a specific website for this series? Can't find it!
I have stated this before. I emphasise more now on performances and script rather than plot. Thanks to TVB I have given up on a watching a truly good and original plot but performances can't be faulted though lousy plot. Roger Kwok is a case on point. He was magnificent in Greed Mask, the series failed him.
Anyway new review coming soon.
Do you like this new layout? Why no one is utilising the comments feture here and in reviews (posted using Blogger)? Should I remove the tagboard? Any submission? Anyone here? Hello? Hellooooo? Where is everybody? Oh my... my Google rating is ZERO! Arghhhhhhh....
