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]

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

stories written by
amateur writers like you
and I.

Pearl I saw Newsies in many American websites BUT region 1 only. I don't know if my DVD player or DVD computer can play or not! Not that ulu because I read the DVD treatment given to it by Disney for a supposedly bomb movie was pretty jam packed.
Actually, I'm under the impression that most DVD roms can play region 1 DVDs. Maybe u can try by renting or borrowing a region 1 DVD and see if they work on ur DVD players.
The ones that have been released in US like Princess Mononoke and Grave of The Fireflies have more features. They have interviews, The Making.. and stuff. For the animes that have not been released in US, they either have very little extra features or no extra features at all.
Also, the language option is also different. Some animes have english dub, some don't. But all have mandarin, cantonese and japanese dub.
On Region 1 DVD. I've bought 1 Region 1 DVD unknowingly (at that time I was ignorant of this grading system) and so far, I've not been able to play this DVD in any DVD players yet.
My DVD-ROM in my PC can't read it either.
Laputa however is a classic. I recommend...getting them all. :p
I have both the VCD and DVD of Grave of the Fireflies. DVD is just for collection/archival sake, I don't think I can watch it again. Too traumatic...
All DVD players are region-locked. However, for a fee, the shop where you bought the DVD player should be able to unlock it and thus allow DVDs from all regions to play on it. That's how my DVD player is able to play all regions.
For PCs, you can try using http://www.dvd43.com/
