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!

Oh how come I didn't know? 
Permanent link Post a Comment

I read some time before of a famous Korean actress who starred in a big budget movie who killed herself for reasons I could not remember. I gave no further thought on it until I came across a DVD review site which kinda mentioned that the actress I was talking about was Yong Shin in Taegukgi! So young, so pretty, I wonder why? Why kill herself? Why??

Very depressing day also because saw documentaries on the 9/11 Twin Tower thing and then saw this heartbreaking documentary when channel surfing (BBC) entitled Children of Beslan and the survivors, the children told about their experience and anger in that Beslan thing. I can't bring myself to write more, as I was watching that documentary, I kept muttering "Bastards! Bastards!". It is scary to note but understandably so that these children said they want to kill the terrorrists. It's the anger watching their families and friends die and the guilt that they survived and their friends and families didn't. No amount of excuses or reasons that can ever persuade me to believe in the terrorists' cause, even if their families may have suffered the same fate before. It was very sad documentary.

So I had to think happy thoughts. Since I lacked money, power, boyfriends and exquisite beauty, I had only my website as my happy thoughts and seeing it looking like this depresses me. So I thought of the new reviews I will be posting and busied myself with extracting clips from my favourite movies and stuff. I know, I am shallow but whatever makes you occupied and happy and do no harm onto others, I say why not?

Very happy to note that I will be posting I think 4 reviews, all very good quality stuff and some amazing clips that is over 15MB in size each clip but I am sure you will enjoy watching them even if there is a language barrier. I am updating this layout because I am sick of seeing it loopsided and I am reopening You Know Who's infopage. I admit I have been neglecting him lately but must come back to him. At the same time whilst I do not plan to create a fansite for JDG (as he has plenty of others who can do a better job than I), do expect plenty of clips from his movies and series that I can get my hands on. The problem with extracting DVD clips is I do not know how to extract the subtitles as well, so I am sorry to trouble you with looking at the clip and reading the subtitles from another file. I could add the subtitles into the clips but I tried it with Lost Memories and it was intrusive since I can't add it below a clip but must add before a clip. I know some may wonder how about copyright stuff, but really I am not bothered. These clips may even help promote the movie a bit, so that you guys and girls will go out DVD hunting for these movies, not all I would say are good. I can't get my hands on Shaun Chen's series so the next best thing is JDG's movies.

Just so you know and I am sure you all know, he is a movie star now. But funny though, I notice every Chinese that watches Chinese dubbed series would have one VCD box set of All About Eve and Winter Sonata. Hotelier is optional apparently. Anyway he has move beyond All About Eve but I hope be it in movies or series, that I can see JDG act alongside Bae Yong Jun and Song Hye Kyo. JDG already acted with Lee Young Ae in Medical Brothers but I don't mind an update although I find Lee Young Ae not a very good actress. It would be great even to see JDG with Shaun Chen AND Fann Wong. Wouldn't that be something?

And great news is that Datuk Michelle Yeoh is making a splash with her role in Memories of A Geisha I think. Sorry to say I suspect watching Zhang Ziyi act is already a torture but listening to her speak English? So Datuk Michelle Yeoh has an advantage. But rumours had it that she might get nominated for an Oscar! I think that is way too optimistic. It is a well known fact that she is not a great nor consistently or even a remotely good actress but she is an icon that one should admire. Oscar? Well if Halle Berry can win an Oscar and Catherine Zeta Jones can even get one for Chicago, I'd say why not?

WHY NOT?

Anyway Happy Monday which is a oxymoron I think. No Monday is Happy unless you're a workaholic/Schoolholic or you're not working/studying and has plenty of money to spare.

The actress (the only female actress in Taegukgi) Lee Eun Jo committed suicide in Feb 2005. News reported that she hang herself and she left a suicide note for her mom & brother. It was reported that she has been suffering from depression. She was only 25 and she was at the hight of her career then. Sad....
