More movies watched:-

Letters to Juliet - watchable.. surprisingly didn't yawn although acting quite 'kayu'
The Descent 2 - very gory, very nice!
A Nightmare on Elm Street - not bad. love the ending bit.. looks like Freddy will be back.
The Bounty Hunter - forgettable.. the story ending is getting very vague as I type.

Wall-E : Robot A loves 'Hello Dolly'. Robot A lonely coz only have a cockroach as company. Robot A meets Robot B and falls in love. Robot A saves Robot B, and bring humans back to earth. Simple plot, some fun moments.. 7/10

Babylon A.D.: It started out decently enough, but the ending stunk. Not really advisable to invest good money to watch this turkey! 3/10

Phew.. been awhile since I done my updates. serious tight schedule lined up probably until year-end. Anyways.. somehow I squeezed in to watch the following movies:-

The X-Files: I Want To Believe - Yeah.. I also want to believe. Transplant of the XYXY??!! 5/10

Hellboy2: The Golden Army - Ron Perlman rocks as Hellboy. Brash yet charismatic, hot-tempered with a good heart.. Ending a bit anti-climax though. No big boom like the previous. 8.5/10

Mirrors - Surprisingly good, considering I was a bit jumpy throughout, which seldom happens. Too bad there was a short intermission due to technical error during the show. Luckily cinema crowd was more civilised, never jeered and waited patiently. 8.5/10

SATC ... ho-hum

Went to Pavillion to catch the preview screening of Sex And the City the movie.

Visited PAWS. It was really nice being with furry friends, yet sad to see so many strays and abandoned animals around. So heart-warming to see them coming to you, staring with their eyes, seeking for someone who will love them and give them a good home.

I aint an animal rights activist, but I do love animals.There are many ways to help these animals besides adopting them home. Please take a look at http://www.paws.org.my/we.html.

On another note, I was bullied by a stray dog just last week, which snarled, barked and seems that gonna attack me while I stood meekly staring at the fella. Luckily no untoward incident happened while I inched away slowly from the dog.

Do enjoy some shots of the lovable creatures at PAWS below.

Caught the premiere of The Dark Knight, thanks to Suanie, Nokia and Sashi. It was simply Fanta-bulous! A must watch! It was so good, that I probably will watch it again at the cinema (I never ever do that except for The Descent, another superb movie).

There was plenty of Jokers around aiming for the Nokia N95 prize that night. But I must say, Klubbkidd is a class of his own and totally deserve to win. I think any kids around will cry for mommy.

As for the movie, just a lil dissatisfaction with one of the character, but probably comment later on whom to avoid spoilers.

Acting-wise.. Sorry Christian, but Michael Keaton is still my dark knight.
Heath totally rocks as Batman's arch-nemesis, being just totally insane with no boundaries. Jack Nicholson's flamboyant version was tops in my books, and now .. both are in the same standings . Will the next Joker come close??

Finally.. On the Bandwagon
