YOUR PARTICIPATION

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. I welcome your comments and feedback, positive or negative, right or wrong, long or short. All I ask for is for you to write your name (a nickname if you so wish) if you're posting as Other or Anonymous AND to show common courtesy to one another when posting your thoughts. Come & join me in sharing each other's opinion of a certain subject matter. Show yourself & post away!


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!

A Message From Funn 
Permanent link Post a Comment

Dearest You,

Despite what had happened for the past few days, I would like to extend my sincere wishes to everybody and to greet you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR 2005!

Another year has passed the year 2004 ended with literally a bang and a flood of not just seawater, but emotions. Hopefully 2005 will bring good fortunes and plenty of luck. My sincere wish is the people who suffered such tremendous loss, not just due to the tsunami but also at Beslan and everywhere else may be able to rebuild their lives and get back to some degree of a normal and yet fulfilling life. My dream for myself this year is to lose weight, be nice, work hard, earn more money, be better at what I do and generally be a better person than I imagine myself to be. I am older now, plus 1 year but still not much better than I was just 2 hours ago.

Thanks for all your support, to the few who kept this site going by frequent visits and comments in the year 2004 and for just dropping by and sending me reviews, news or just a friendly note. Because those that I do know by name who visited this site in 2004 was very very few, I can personally thank ...

Kidd for frequent postings on anything to do with TVB and Idol. Also an avid supporter of my Episodic Thoughts on Survivor's Law.

Pearl/P-Chan for always forgetting to write her name (thus made even more memorable by her double postings, but I am not complaining) for her tremendous support in anything entertainment and recently, for all the translated news on you-know-who

Adelyn for the reviews and great comments on anything TVB

Catlau, SPCNET Forums gang for your emails and discussions on you-know-who

SC & the whole team at SPCNET Forums for providing a great great place for discussions, the height was during Changing Lanes and that was literally the best online moment of 2004 for me, every night for meeting fabulous people who may or may not share a common interest with me but Changing Lanes forum has got to be the friendliest, more active and rewarding thread I have ever had the privilege of posting in, I felt like I finally found a haven for my interest without being bombarded with awwww-shucks comments, though there were some thanks to me of course

Jade from SPCNET Forums for frequent posting, private messages and those few gorgeous pictures

The many who posted anonymously and not so frequent authors with a name, thanks to you my site became much much livelier, and also those who posted in the Shout Box as well

The few who wrote such insightful emails to me, I really love receiving such constructive criticisms though I may be a bit on the defensive side sometimes

The many who visited my site, and then for the first time writing to me via email or posting at my website saying wonderful things at the time I was very much in doubt of certain few useless things that right now seemed rather childish, you have followed this site from E-Buzz to EbuzzDB to Point2e.com, has it been nearly 3 years or so? How time flies.

Many who volunteered information to me, I am sorry I can't remember all your names but I thank you all

November for making those fabulous videos and funny comments and even made the effort to translate them to many like me who can't read Chinese

Wuchang who made 2004 particularly memorable to me because this is one person who feels totally neutral about one particular actor that I am crazy about and yet made a tremendous effort to capture, post and share the screencaptures he made as well as volunteering information. Rare person but good samaritan exists and I must say, he is wonderful. More so because he is one of the rare ones who made an effort to promote Singaporean series, very knowledgeable and sometimes even answers my desparate calls for help. Hopefully, he will continue to be as generous as he was, not just to me because to be fair, he shares, he really does. Sometimes I keep to myself, no sharing but those that I met at SPCNET forums Changing Lanes thread shares, and Wuchang was one of the few who came to my site, probably curious why I was (and still am) so crazy about one particular actor and probably took pity on me by the lack of info and basically shared not just pictures, links and news, but I would deem a very friendly online friendship. Of course I personally do not wish it to end simply because my interest in a particular person ends.

Shaun Chen Hongyu for reigniting the girly me, by making me remember that I was once the young teenager who idolise a person for no reason than just my personal reasons. I hope he will find success for many years and get good roles. He certainly made my life in 2004 so much more exciting by mere mention of his name. I still do feel the same way, and he also made me doubted everything I have read and heard. What an impact.

Bad actors, bad series, mediocre actressess and cheap productions, thank you because if not my reviews will be boring and I have nothing to talk about

Great actors, great series, beautiful productions, thank you if not my reviews will mostly be sulky, angry rant, thanks for making my nights so much more enjoyable (why night? Prime time mah!)

My family, for paying my tel bills

My host, Ace-Net.host for offering affordable and yet great service. I must announce I plan to not renew my hosting account in February not because I hate them (I mean I forgave tjem for deleting my files thanks to that crash) but I discover now they offer better deals, so I am really thinking should I or shouldn't I?

Many who posted video files of rare series like Power of Love and even Zero (thanks to Wuchang again for the tip), I hope to find more who will defy the so called trademark and copyright law ....my defence? Like I mentioned before, I have zero access to these series!

And many many many more that I simply can't remember right now but remember what was done.

THANK YOU for making 2004 a great year for Point2Entertainment. I look forward to your continued support and yes I pledge to thee that I shall post my older reviews. But after February when I get a better deal first. I very rare ever say to anyone I LOVE YOU and I will not break with the tradition but do accept my sincere thanks for simply dropping by to my website. Can't do all these without your support. If I have offended you in 2004, I do apologise. As for 2005, I will wait until 1st January 2006 to issue another apology.

THANK YOU!

Sincerely,

FUNN LIM

And I thank you, Funn, for providing us with such good reviews. I personally like your reviews. Your english is good, and you can express yourself very well. I also like the way you manage to provide the readers with a touch of comic relief.

Happy New Year!

Yes, I was really curious about your obsession with you know who. :D Thanks to you, I now know quite a bit about the person known as Shaun Chen. :P

I've enjoyed reading your reviews, especially those about Singaporean series. Always witty and wonderfully written in a conversational style as if you're talking to the readers. None of those stuffy reviews one gets from print publications.

Keep on writing!!

Happy New Year to you Funn! Just like to say that I've always enjoyed reading your reviews since E-Buzz, always so thoughtful yet witty at the same time, satisfying my interest for TVB serials. Keep it all up, ok? Doing a great job here!

But before I sign off, here's my list of new year resolutions exclusively for www.point2e.com:

1) Remember to sign off every time I post a comment on point2e.com.

2) Remember to sign off with the correct nick.

3) From now on, Pearl shall be known only as Pearl here at point2e.com. May someone smite me if I should carelessly use P-Chan for any of my postings.

May everyone stay healthy, happy and safe in the new year!

Cheers!
Pearl

Hi Funn,

I want to thank you too for reopening your website. I've been following your website since your Ebuzz days when Seagull was still there and your have provided great enjoyment to me with your opinionated review. I may not agree with some of them, but it's always a joy to read them because you always try to be fair and seperate the actors from the characters and u do great analysis on the characters and plot. The witty/sarcastic way to write your reviews also add colours to it.

I also appologise if I came off too contradicting and over defensive of certain actors (Bosco Wong :P) and characters (Vincent of SL :D) I like.

Happy New Year.

Kidd
