_of All That are Bunnies and CNY Movies
When the Lunar New Year ends, so do the movies.
Just to get into the groove mood, Q.L. and I went cinema-hopping. As this is a post about the CNY movies, I have included pictures of bunnies inside. Just so you know.
Not pictured: a Bunny. |
And now is the time for:

Movie Review!!! |
by the ever-so-famous Miss Bunny of the Year:

Err. That is totally a fashion no-no. |
(Again)

Ah-hem. |
All right. We are back with Miss Bunny of the Year:

Let's just ignore the fact that this Bunny is often portrayed as a MALE bunny. |
-At least, ignore it for the sake of this post.-
Back to the main point, reviews of THREE (!!!) CNY movies released recently (in my own particular rating of like/dislike). You might feel differently (as I am sure you would) but hey, don't shoot the blogger, shoot the movie producer!
1. Mr. and Mrs. Incredible

You might not see it clearly, but that is Louis Koo and 吴君如. |

...ZZZZzzzz... |
Yep. This is what happened. I'm sorry to say that I "accidentally on purpose" slept in the cinema for a good half an hour to an hour of this movie.
I. Just. Can't. Help. It.
The plot was mundane, it was hard to relate the story to our lives (except for... SPOILER ALERT!... old couples who want children). And the movie was so disappointing (-again- to me) that the trailer/sneak peek was a hundred times better than the real one.
Can you blame me when I say I thought it was a movie about hero-thieves and how they save the world? Look at the poster! It has all the elements of an action flick, not some baby-making guidelines. T_T
2. I Love Hong Kong

The poster. |

Just to let you know, this "thing" really has only 3 fingers on each hand. There is no indication that I am trying to curse anybody. None at all. |
I'm sorry, did you just say that you did not notice the hands? Damn! *cough cough* I mean, I regret drawing attention to it.
Some good moments, some bad ones. What is worth mentioning is the group of young people who sat behind us inside the cinema. One of the girls was laughing so hard, she nearly choked. It was so wicked, I tell you. *gleeeeeeeee*
Oh. And I love the main soundtrack. It was good.
3. All's Well End's Well 2011

Please note that they are not twins, triplets or even quadruplets. These are repetitive pics. But I don't mind if they do. Then, we can get double, triple and even quadruple doses of funny moments. |
My rating:
![]() |
I can assure you, I did NOT put the wrong picture. |
This movie just gets me into the mood, baby! Yes, there were a few bland moments (kind-of-boring Ip Man's scenes) but overall, this is insanely amusing. And the fact that the audiences get to see Louis Koo becoming so 娘 is a BIG EXTRA point indeed!!
Just in case you can't "feel" my excited tone, let me put another poster of them.

I am SO biased. |
The best quote I've heard in the movie: 在你的生命中会有一个等你的人,不管在任何地方,任何时候,他永远都在等着你。
(more or less that was what she said. It sounded much better when she said it in Cantonese.)
Translation: "There is someone waiting for you in your life. No matter how far, or how long, he will still be waiting for you. Forever."
That's it! Our little cinema-hopping adventure. I am sorry if it was rather long. However, for good measures, I've added some more pictures here. Wait for it......

_of Things I Found Out Today
![]() |
For illustration purposes only. |
1. of F&N...
(through Nuffnang) is giving out complimentary movie vouchers to those who participated in their previous Magnolia Sherbet contest (which unfortunately, I did not win anything. But feel free to check my entries: The Parody, The One-Liner Title, and The-Actual-Post-That-Still-Did-Not-Make-Me-Win-Anything). Sigh.
![]() |
Yes, I'm blabbing. |
So, to cut things short, and simple, and precise, and exquisite, Nuffnang (as mentioned above) asked us to get the vouchers from their office. So, like the very "kepoh + kiasu" person that I am really made of, I checked the address from this Google Map.
![]() | |
Bummed straight to Middle Age, mate. |
So, I Found Out that the office is situated in...
Hmmm...
Errr...
Let's try again.
...ayamasakikankambingkerapulambangpurnama.... |
So. Through my careful analysis and excellent deduction skills, I've finally managed to find (insert the drum rolls here) The Office on the map. Therefore, I'm happy. But I still need to think about going there, that's just so faraway.
2. of Google Search...
What surprising treats I got when I opened my Google Search this morning. I saw these...
And I thought: Oh-my-God-,-someone-much-short-and-round-has-chopped-off-a-girl's-head-with-a-quill...asdjaflbprugio@#$%!!!
As usual, that is not true.
I Found Out that it is actually some Brancusi sculptures. Now now. Don't ask me who this Brancusi is or what the sculptures really mean. Check them out yourself. I am only interested if it is about "Someone Very Short And Round Who Has This Fetish Thing About Killing People With A Quill".

...and done in the Harry-Potterish style. |
3. of North Korea...
For a bit of the World News, Wednesday was Kim Jong Il's birthday (as I Found Out through Wikipedia). How is this related to my post? Not in any way at all. Just so you know, in case you are interested in him.
4. of Me Being Lazy and Procrastinating...
![]() |
It's 11am, and I still haven't get my breakfast and last night's dinner. |
14 essays due this Tuesday. I shall need all my lucky charms, my imaginary friends, my excuses ("my cat ate the grandma who took my essays home to read", "I don't have a dog. The phantom dog must have eaten my essays. Screw it!!!" etc etc) and ABSOLUTELY everything else just to get at least ONE done.
![]() |
Life's Good. |
Yeah, right.
One more excuse: 'Essays? What essays?"

_of Coming Baaaaaaaaaaaccckkkkk & A-i-r-p-l-a-n-e
![]() |
Yes, I |
As you can see, I am back.
...

I'm sure you did not hear me right. I said: I am Baaaaccccckkkkkkkkkk.

That is just mean. |
Just to get myself to feel a tiny bit better, the reason is this:
![]() | |||
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee... |
Well, at least some "people" missed me. Ah well. But, since I am already back, I will be getting on your nerves again, shall I? Good.
_of A-i-r-p-l-a-n-e...
Nope. I am NOT talking about the B.O.B. feat Hayley's Airplane song. I don't even know what her full name is. Is it Williams? It must be. "William" is a very "IN" (or if you are in Twitter, they called it "trending" there) name right now, because of 29th April 2011. *hint hint*
I just came back from my hometown, as you can see from the lack of posts/entries around.
![]() | ||
With this. |
A small group of people (very very small) think that it is posh to go back using this mode of transportation. But if you live somewhere across the oceans/seas...
![]() | ||||
...right? |
There are a few things about this journey of mine that you MIGHT just be a tiny bit interested to know...
1. of why the stewardess next to you gets on your nerves?
2. of why the airplane is associated with superpower heroes?
3. of where the fire comes from?
Of course, NONE of these happened.
Happy Lunar New Year again, people! ^_^
