  • "Bee!" <Transformer: Revenge of the Fallen>

    Jun25 2009

    很少寫”影評“, 但我決定紀錄這一天。從來不是機械人的fans,唯一想擁有的robot是Roomba (what's that? 自動吸塵機!)。小時候也不愛Transformers, 只是看見表弟的玩具可以變身,似乎幾好玩,但叮噹還是比較吸引。

    不過2007第一集Transformers的trailer一出,我知道我必定要進戲院看這齣“男仔”戲。Transform過後它旋即升為我一生中看過最佳電影之一!勁CG,超精細,heart-pumping, 可愛幽默有型刺激一應俱全,連message都有埋 (雖然有點老土)。Chevrolet 在我心目中亦突然超越了 Ferrari!Who wants a guy driving Ferrari if the guy next door is zooming in an Autobot!

    基本上即使Transformers II 沒有出trailer, 我一樣會撲入戲院! 或許我看戲的角度和準則與一般人不同,我並不覺得Revenge of the Fallen會輸給第一集,更加不能理解 Life! 怎麼可能給半顆星的rating (out of 5 stars)? 那影評人看戲時與情人分手了所以有偏見嗎??? Transformers最吸引我的地方其實不是之前對第一集評價的種種優點,而是它真的很有HEART!不是機械人有heart,而是製作群有heart!當我望著一個個Autobots變身時,我甚至感覺到我的瞳孔放大,看著一班Decepticons合體成為一隻大怪獸時 (PJE says it's called "Constructicons"!), 我簡直感動到想哭!如此的精細,如此的真實,是要多用心才做得到?! 我即使給你最好的技術,再多的錢,你有這個HEART去做到這麼完美嗎?我指的完美不是漂亮,而是精細。精細到我幾乎可以看到螺絲,真實到若果我回家看見樓下停車場有一堆鐵皮開Party,I won't be surprised!

    打鬥時,Optimus Prime 身上會有碎片掉落。
    受傷了,robots身體會因應而有“傷痕”,有殘缺,即使是遠鏡它都show給你看。
    Twins (Mudflaps / Skids) 爬進古蹟時是一個踩著另一個進去,製作組連沒有人會注意到(我例外)的sidekicks兄弟情都考慮到。
    Constructicons合體時不象卡通般突然,而是一架一架逐part逐part好”狠“地接駁(狠因為鐵碰鐵時有火花,有甩鐵)。

    2009-04-18-transformers_revenge_of_the_fallen

    對於robots,他們真的盡心盡力,至蓁完美,因此我不介意它情節有loopholes,故事long-winded,打鬥太混亂... Who goes in to watch transformers for the story anyway? The point is the transformers themselves! (OK some went in for Megan Fox, and she didn't disappoint the guys either)

    這集當然繼續幽默搞笑,繼續教小朋友做人道理,繼續英雄繼續感人,只是少了第一集的新鮮感,多了很多隻decepticons.

    很多朋友看完鐘意Shia Labeof (Sam),但我卻愛上Josh Dunhamel (Sergeant Lennox)! Manly with a boyish face,好型!即使這裡是個配角,卻比在“Win a Date with Tad Hamilton"更charming!
    (Er.. but I don't like his gf now wife Fergie...)




    I really wish, I can have such an adorable car that will look for me, all I have to do is just to shout "Bee!"

  • The Dating Persona Test

    The Priss

    Deliberate Brutal Love Dreamer (DBLD)

    The Priss

    Mature. Responsible. Aristocratic. Excuse me. The Priss.

    Prisses are the smartest of all female types. You're highly perceptive, and confident in your judgements. You'd take brutal honesty over superficiality any time--your friends always know where they stand with you. You're completely unfake. Don't tell me that's not a word. You're also excellent at redirecting internal negative energy.

    These facts indicate people are often intimidated by you. They also fall for you, hard. You have a distant, composed allure that many find irresistible. If only more of them lived up to your standards.

    You were probably the last among your friends to have sex. And the first to pretend that you're pregnant. LOL. Though you're inclined to use sex as weapon, at least it's not as one of mass destruction. You're choosier than most about your partners. A supportive relationship is what you're really after. Whether you know it or not, you need something steady & long-term. And soothing.

    Your exact female opposite:

    The Playstation

    The Playstation

    Random Gentle Sex Master

    Always avoid: The Playboy (RGSM), The Loverboy (RGLM)

    Consider: The Manchild (RBLD)

  • Dandelion @Superband + Poon-Huang Wedding

    Had been soooo busy recently!

    1. Overloaded at work, numerous procedure changes and system updates, I'm like working for 3 bosses now ( 1 in SG, 1 in US, 1 in AU), everything concern me, every morning when I reach office, among the 200emails, almost half of them are dedicated to me.... "Hi Grace..." "Dear Grace...". From updating system manually to lost shipments and procedure writing, basically anything about supply planning that managers don't do and planners don't do, it becomes my job!

    2. Besides the bi-monthly worship leading, I was appointed to be the worship leader for darling Huifen and PJE's church wedding (she booked me 6 months ago)! It was stressful because I've never host a wedding b4 in front of 400 over ppl and I was very afraid of ruining a gd fren's precious wedding... Thank God for the wonderful worship team, for giving me the most appropriate words to say, and that everything went smoothly despite the lack of limited preparation time, the adults are especially pleased with my performance ;) And I really thank darling for believing that I can do it, it's my pleasure to be part of her special wedding. Look at their smile! Full of happiness! (1May2008)

    3. Recently my best friends and I put ourselves into something crazy! We are all so busy at work so because of this additional commitment, we have almost zero time for other friends -- We got into top 16 of SUPERBAND2! Audition was held in early April, we did not tell anyone because we don't want anyone to recognize us if we fail the audition! I even use a fake name (Vienne) to camouflage hahahah, partly because Grace is not very suitable to be a screen name. They said that they received 300 applications, but we really don't think there's so many groups went for the auditions. But still it's like a miracle that we can get into top 16. Because from what we see all the pther bands/groups received good feedbacks from the judges. While the judges only gave us 3 doubtful questions and did not even nod their head once when we sang. (worst is the background music we prepared was not accepted and we could not find any minus-one CD in the whole TPY, we just sang w/o music on the spot, and of course forgot lyrics again.) And we felt that we are soooo old! Most of the others are teenagers while we are like.... erm.... 20 something old women.

    I kept feeling lost of speech when they ask why we join superband. Because we really don't know why we joined... we just feel that it's like a little dream we had when we were young and we've already past that passionate age, if we don't do it now, we know we'll never have the courage (and we'll be really too old) to try again. Are we after fame? No, cos we definitely hate to be recognized on the street. Are we after the money? Neither, cos there's only 1 Grand Prize and we believe that the Grand Prize winner would be a band and not a singing group (who can't dance and play any instruments properly, and with some old ladies -.-)  We are actually just responding to their call on the advertisement - ppl who love music to come to the music playground to play! We're here to have fun! As long as we have fun, we have won something! And of course MayDay being the ambassador is a pulling factor, hope that we can stay in the game till we can meet MayDay!

    Although mediacorp is not really a very glamorous place. But it's a special experience for us to do makeup and hair side by side with some local artists and to take professional photo shoots and even short MV shoots at their studios! It's really a relaxing job because everything is arranged, we jus have to follow instructions. And at our age, we are no more nervous anxious little girls, but sadly, we don't have the confidence that our age should have either.

    Our group name is "Dandelion". Von and I tot of this when having lunch at Billy Bombers. Jus find it sounds nice. Our meaning to it - to be free, to fly, and to spread happiness. Unfortunately the producers said it's too hard to pronounce, and it's Chinese program so it's better to have Chinese name. Then they gave us the very old-fashioned name - 蒲公英 >.< We don't know how to live with such a name =.= Pls call us "Dandelion" instead!!!

    極品推介


    鑽石蝦 $168/10隻

    此種蝦隻含鉛量為零,不含任何有害物質,因此蝦身晶瑩剔透,味道亦更清甜。而且其含有極高的蝦紅素,比起維他命E的抗氧化功效高出200倍,真正美味健康。

    前菜拼盤 約$200

    這道前菜拼盤是最佳的佐菜小食,當中包括有明太子、日式煮火螺、碎吞拿魚腩伴紫菜等,其中較特別的螢光魷魚沖漬,味道鹹鹹的海水味中帶有淡淡酒香,送Sake一絕。

    紅星有氣清酒 $158/瓶

    這瓶有氣清酒就最適合不勝酒力的我,酒精濃度不高,而且藍莓的果香亦令酒更易入口。

    壽司上拼盤 $428

    壽司對我而言總是有種不能抗拒的誘惑,這碟拼盤有齊我最愛的壽司款式,如大拖羅、劍魚腩、北海道帶子、海膽、蟹膏等,滿足我貪心的胃口。

    法國鵝肝伴日本蘿蔔

    $128

    選用美味的法國鵝肝來搭配日本小蘿蔔,清爽的蘿蔔減少了鵝肝所帶來的膩口感,卻又不會蓋過濃郁的鵝肝香氣。

    燒大蝦伴番茄柚子芥辣汁

    $188

    大大隻的泰國花虎蝦不經醃製,只簡單地以鐵板燒熟,盡顯蝦之鮮甜原味。而搭配的醬汁則是以日本的柚子胡椒烹調而成,少許辛辣的味道更能刺激我的味蕾。
