Angels & Demons Movie Details:
Genre – Thriller
Cast – Tom Hanks, Ewan McGregor,
Ayelet Zurer
Director – Ron Howard
Based on the bestseller by Dan Brown (Da Vinci Code)

How Do We Get Tickets?

Click here for more details

And yeah!! we get to watch it TWO days before the world premiere! Thanks Advertlets! Please note that security checks may be enforced and may need to keep handphone/cameras in storage before entering the movie hall.

Oh, you know how much I miss Tom Hanks in action and imagine i could watch him two days before everyone else! hehehahaha..

The producer was happy to talk about Hanks' head — and body in one of the interview:
"I'm telling you, he's got a scene where he's swimming in Speedos, and he looks fantastic," Grazer says. "He's going to add 10 years to his career with that scene alone, just watch."

So.. uh hum.. I can't wait to see that!

Review: Neil Smith from Total Film gave it 4/5 stars and said: "some of the author's crazier embellishments are jettisoned in a film that atones for The Da Vinci Code's cardinal sin - thou shalt not bore."

( Japan vs Thai ) ≠ Malaysia

I am glad to have a friend that always have freebies to share,
Because of his free movie tickets, he had created a chance for me to realize something of Jap and Thai, which i will never think of watching them.

I have found out that we can know more about a country culture, esp their thinking behavior through a movie, because a movie is created and altered according to the local "taste" and it is a hint of the pattern of mass crowd in that country, provided the director get it right.

Hmmm... Thai are more emotional and feminine, less logical and more instant joy, and less patience. I guess it is a free and comfortable country to live in. While for Jap, the plotting of story is very weird for me... long long normal story line which definitely will make you fall asleep, then, very slow, it comes to an exaggerated climax out of really small problem, then back to long long boring story line and sleep again..zzzZZ I think they are in constant stress, following traditional rules and virtues. Those exaggerated climax out of small things looks like they are releasing their long suppressed feelings and thoughts. Really having culture shock, man! Anyway, they are very patient and determined (long long boring story line).

Hahaha.. I am sure they will have culture shock too, when watching our movies. Thanks for the treats, Chad! You make me realize how much i love Malaysia... HHmmmm.. ahhh, I'm loving it!

A dugong paradise

Once upon a time, in a far away sea, there were four dugong friends playing together. One fine day...

chilli: Oh my god, the sea today is very calm, let's go to our paradise!! What say u?
chen: Wokie! I wanna take photo over there, so i can blog and post it into the Dugong Blogging Community!
yeng: HHmmmm.... Yupe, why not! I miss the bitter-sweet taste of Halophila..
chris: okok.. u guys enough ady... I am really really hungry now.. Whooooaaaawwww..... I can eat up a whole cow!! Oooppss, I am a cow too, cannot eat similar species.
chilli,chen,yeng,chris: Yo, let's go!

So, they swam happily towards the strait of Johor and finally they reach the well-known paradise of seagrass bed, lying at the middle of the strait. The fresh smell of seagrass came into their senses and hhmmmm... ahhh... they started to chew on the tasty and nutritious Halophila leaves..

chris: Woaw... um..um..um..um.. they are really really tasty... um.. um.. um.. um..
chilli: oh my god... noooot baaaaad..
yeng: sedapnya~~~
chen: Come, let's take a picture of u all eating!
chris,chilli,yeng: Ok!

"Duuuoooooooo...." a big ship was passing by, all of them were irritated by the noisy and annoying sound of the engine of the ship. They somehow felt dizzy and unbalance after the long period of listening to it. From far, they saw a young dugong approached to the ship and suddenly the snout got cut off by the engine fan.

chilli: Oh my god! OH MY GOD!!
chen: oh my god again? u say so many time today already.
yeng: This time is different, it's really OH MY GOD!
chris: I think the water current will drift our friend to the shore, and i hope creature on the shore will realize how they had affected us by their harmful activities.
yeng: I heard that there is a creature on the shore called: "Mother Louisa", she and her fellow creatures will do their best to help us out a lil'!
chilli: Let's put our hands together and pray for the sacrifice of our dear friend as a message for the creature on the shore, and also hope for everything goes well for "Mother Louisa".
All of them fall into silence.... and prayed....

I feel love~~

I have to admit that i am a very rough and violent person.
I don't know the art of living.
But recently i was given so much chances and occurrences in life, to make me realize,
More and more, again and again,
That my violence is there because i don't accept myself,
My violence is there because i thought i have the power.

There is no need to love, but to understand alone is enough. After the understanding, all the long long hatred on ourselves will be released and turned into care and love.
And we will suddenly feel lighter by few kilos.

Rescuing myself

I struggle as going through and being dragged in every scene and feeling unconsciously. To be free is to be conscious and objective, that's the only path.

Having an experiment in myself is like growing an embryo within. It needs total care, love, awareness, patience and discipline in order to allow it to grow strongly and continuously.

If we are sensitive enough, loving enough, I don't see any reason to not start rescuing ourselves as the whole world had gone so mad that we will only live miserably without the real answer within.

Gate gate para gate... Let's dis-cover ourselves, reveal the real joy within!

Prove ourselves = Failure

I had always try to prove myself,
To be a "somebody",
It has always come to failure,
Even at some point it seems success at the surface,
but it is always greed and hunger underneath,
hunger for more and more agreement, wealth and fame;
and sleepless night shadowing..

Now at least I am more awake;
When I saw the cause, it was just a total misunderstanding;
Of the whole society and culture;
In a continuous strong whorl of darkness
of which so rare to find people who will take responsibility;
and search within themselves to find the very source of light.

For now I will take my own;
and will share it to the others;
People just need very simple care;
Which i had been miser of for very long time.

Damn Lucky to be Unlucky

We will only realize once we are without,
We thought we are lucky but we are unlucky;
we thought we are unlucky but we are lucky.
Only if we realize, the darkness and the light will unite;
The curiosity of a sensitive heart is the key.
Risk all those can be risk
To find back and preserve our throbbing heart;
As it is the only treasure of our life.
