Herbie
I enjoyed Herbie: Fully Loaded.
Somehow or rather, I love Linsday Lohan shows. ( Mean Girls, Parent Trap, Freaky Friday ) She's a natural on the big screen and she nails the lines, the expressions and her roles effortlessly. Well, they are indeed kiddy and teeny poppy shows but she does them hell lot better than people like Hillary Duff and those teen princesses. She's a slut in real life for the moment but every Hollywood brat will somehow mend their ways and become ambassadors for whatever bullshit peace corps or organisation again.
My blog is sounding like christopher's blog.
But somehow I felt good coming out of a movie theatre feeling happy rather than disturbed, fucked up or baffled.
They should really make more feel-good movies, such as School of Rock, That Thing You Do,Mean Girls again..
Yeah, but I'm contradicting myself.
My obsessions with the dark side cannot allow myself to have such sinful pleasure of watching feel-good movies. My movies must have sensational killing, disturbing sex and fucked-up lives of fucked-up people.
How come like that?
I never believe in watching horror movies but I did catch 'The Maid' unfortunately. Thought it would be some good stuff from local film people but the story didn't really grip me as tight as I thought it would be. It's painfully annoying and difficult to watch because every single scene has a possiblity of frightening you. So I didn't enjoy watching it at all.
Perth: The Geylang Massarce like Herbie have semi-colons in their names. That is, however, out of point. I love Angry Boy Lee in the show, this chao ah beng who is fucking vulgar and natural la. The english spoken in the film is not as colloquial as I like it to be and it could be better if the whole show was a mix of little english, chinese and hokkien.
It makes me ponder about sitcoms and dramas that have been airing in Singapore television, how Singaporeans speak English in a non-Singlish-ly Singaporean way. Like there is certain pitching at different part of the phrases or sentences they say.
It is weird to see local dramas, english or chinese, do their shows only in one language. Makes it kinda fake. For HK dramas, its natural for the actors to converse entirely in canto cos that's what they really do in real life. American shows alike. Nobody really speaks proper english shows in Singapore but yet we have english shows done in an entirely english-speaking way.
I'm looking forward to see Linsday doing more serious shows. It's time she break out of that mould.

I tot the Maid was OK but some parts were pretty absurd. Anyway Perth was ridiculous to me...I tot Lim Kay Tong look like he was goin to hav a fit anytime. His portaryal is plain weird (disturbing but not in an artistic way). I just can't appreciate the show. Someone told me it's trying to copy abit Kill Bill fight scenes and copy this and that. Anyway Angry Boy's swearing came mostly from improvisation according to an article I read in the papers...haa...
Anyway for disturbing sex scenes, watch Team America: World Police. Its REAL disturbing watching puppets fu*kin! There's some sensational killing as well dude.
Yeah..I watched that.
