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!

Thanks for your help!

Re this post of mine, I would like to say a heartfelt thanks to Kidd and Wuchang and many more who located some of my older reviews. Especially to Kidd who kinda found my reviews index page but very heartsick, however I tried, my Stamp of Love review has been lost forever because it was not archived by that archive.org. I got most of my reviews back, I even got my Taste of Love review back which is wonderful, because that review was one of those very few I ever had anything nice to say about Lawrence Ng's acting, but Recipe for the Heart is also lost. I think I have a copy but The Stamp Of Love, confirmed gone forever.

This teaches me a lesson; always always always backup my files.

But what amazes me is of course I was looking at my Crimson Sabre review, wow! I really did pull quite a feat there with a review nobody understood! And I read back my Band Of Brothers review and I myself is very amazed with myself for writing so so much. You should have seen my Legend of Lady Yang review, so many information which I am afraid to say may contain errors but I am not a historian. A Step Into The Past also many many info and Flaming Brothers as well as Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, even got character analysis! Ahhh the good old days. Very motivated to write then.

AYou must check out these reviews. The last longest review I have ever written was Holland V. The longest review ever I have ever written would be Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, took me 6 days to complete as took 6 parts and apparently someone printed it and it was 30 odd pages. A thesis in the making. The most information I have ever done would be Legend of Lady Yang, but A Step Into The Past as well as Gods Of Honours also might be as long. I would say Gods of Honours the longest actually.

The last most info review I have ever written was Doomed To Oblivion, I enjoyed writing that review because I discovered such beautiful paintings by the real life Cheng Pan Kiu. You must check it out. But of course it wasn't the longest of all as mentioned above.

The most nonsensical review ever would be Crimson Sabre because I was trying to be funny but failed miserably. Most shortest review had to be Face To Face which was more like an overview, so really the shortest would be my very first review for E-Buzz, Detective Investigation Files IV where my love-hate relationship with Charmaine Sheh and Anne Heung began. My best reviews are always those where I was at my most sarcastic, so pick any from the Taiwan/China section.

My most emotional review must be An Herbalist Affair which was one of the longest but the review where everybody thought (including a close friend of mind) that I was really having an online argument with Seagull (former webmistress of E-Buzz, now creator of Ada Cache) was Return of The Cuckoo where I began to hate Charmaine Sheh and that review was fun to write because I really hated that series.

Eternal Happiness was one review I got criticised a lot before I lost all those posts thanks to my server meltdown (it wasn't me!) but the most memorable criticism which was a pity because I didn't save the criticism was a thesis by a fan of Jessica Hester Hsuan who was very offended with what I wrote about her in A Step Into The Past, I got quite a few defenders in that Bravenet forum. What glorious days eh? I was so mad I replied, and I was arguing with I think he was a guy who made personal attacks but it was in retrospect such a childish attempt by me to reply. I shouldn't have bothered.

Any series with Felix Wong was a joy to review but my most favourite review of all time? I forgot most of what I wrote, I did mentioned Tattooed Flower because I hated that series but I would say probably Journey To The West because I remembered every single detail of the series as well as Demi God And Semi Devil 1997 because I was sarcastic but I actually liked the series and Benny Chan's debut performance.

My last most favourite review is very hard to say. I don't quite like all my latest reviews that I have posted for the past 1 year save for a few exception. My older reviews contain loads of mistakes, maybe not facts but grammar and spelling and I refuse to change a single word so I hope you don't mind interpreting what I was trying to say. I try to spell check everything but I discover my English sucks, which is why I still commit some cardinal mistakes when it comes to grammar and context.

I would love to hear from you about my older reviews and other reviewers' reviews as well. Feedback is always welcomed. If you like my reviews, maybe do share with me which one you think is your favourite review by me? The least liked one? The one you felt I could have done better? The one you felt I outdone myself?

It has been a long long time I have reviewed back what I have written. Let's go down the memory lane with me!

Hope to hear from you and do bookmark this link for my replies.

I am not saying this because much effort has been put into what I wrote or found out but to share info. If you have add info, you can always share it with all of us, correct the info if you wish...
