Erm.  Yawn?  Zzzz.
OK.  It is hard to write something knowing that over 90% of the population will disagree with.  And if I am to continue my ‘review career’, I have some serious recalibration to do.
Cynthia loves ”The Dark Knight”; I had a headache watching it.  So what happens?  I will get to that in just a [...]

What does ethics mean to you?  I asked this question to the people around me and the responses commonly point to a state of vagueness, and of confusion.  Some are able to observe ethics when lapses occur.  Most think that there are different types of ethics.  Not many are able to articulate and relate to the [...]

Given Randy Pausch’s medical condition, it is astonishing that he is able to publish a book (with the help of Jeffrey Zaslow).  Randy delivered the now famous “Last Lecture” last September when he was told to have only a few months to live.  A while back, I wrote a brief summary on his “Last Lecture” and if you [...]

Absurd as it sounds, I have high anticipation on Hellboy II because of Pan’s Labyrinth and the rather hot Selma Blair.  Why do I think that Hellboy’s girlfriend is sexy?  I have no idea.  Perhaps because of some of the past movies she made.
When I read that in this sequel, it is Hellboy and his [...]

OK.  Bad joke.  I can’t remember the exact dialogue.  When I suggested to watch “The Bank Job” last week, my buddy TK was like, “Isn’t that your job?  9 to 5 is not enough and you have to watch it on big screen?”
Duh!
Cynthia couldn’t have put it better: Before “The Italian Job” and “Ocean 11″, there was [...]

Though I must say, the focal point is at James McAvoy instead.  But still, I simply love Angelina Jolie with guns (think “Lara Croft” and “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”) and I love her attitude too.  One of a kind, truly.
You’ve got to have quite a strong stomach to take in those over the top intensive [...]

Ask ten people who have or had dogs as their companions and you may hear ten unique, at times breathtaking stories.  Without giving out any spoilers, “10 Promises to My Dog” is not one of those typical Hollywood films that involve a dog that saves the world.  There is no adventure of that sort.  Instead, [...]

It is of great pleasure that I finally get down to writing a blog entry on classical music.  When there is something that timeless, it’s easy to put the idea off to another day, and another day.  Most of you may not know that deep inside of this metal head, rocker wannabe of mine is [...]

I beat the book by arriving at the conclusion that “Marketing Metaphoria” has a much wider application way before I’ve reached the final chapter.  Marketers who wish to reveal the minds of the consumers will certainly find this book useful (Which marketer doesn’t wish that?).  Even if you don’t work directly in the line of marketing, [...]

It’s been a crazy time at work these days so I wanted some solid entertainment.  For the lack of choices, I proposed watching “The Incredible Hulk” to my Movie Review Squad and unanimously, both TK and Cynthia loved my choice because of Edward Norton.
Edward Norton as the Hulk?!  What happens to my Hector of Troy?!
OK, I [...]
