*insert title here*

its been a slow week or two. it seems as if i have work piling up but when i look at it closely...its actually not much. i still find myself with a whole lot of free time.

movie watch:

Lady in the Water
its actually pretty good. won't say its excellent or that it's a must see. i'd say that its an acquired taste. all of M. Night Shyamalan's work is an acquired taste. it doesn't stray very far from his past work. although the plot is entirely different you can basically see some trademarks in lady in the water. won't give out the story but just make sure you watch it with an open mind. don't try to over-analyze it. its supposed to be fiction/fantasy.

Dragon Tiger Gate
i actually found it quite hilarious. i'm pretty sure the other guests in the cinema were not happy with my laughter. some of the scenes were borderline stupid...and the plot went from decent to outrageous towards the end. for a moment i thought "hey...this is a chinese movie that i could actually like" until it started becoming "Kung fu hustle" like. so i guess if you like kung fu hustle you might like this show.

nothing exciting seems to happen to me. life has been pretty stagnant and stale lately. i just wish i'd be hit with some pleasant surprises. the kind that keeps me on my toes. until then...i guess its going to be more movies and tv series to fill up my free time. can't complain...
