How to Celebrate Earth Hour, Waste RM22 and One Hour of Your Life at the Same Time

Try fishing udang harimau. Sighh...

I was bored that Saturday. Dead bored. It was like the highest point of boredom. Got myself two days leave, with nothing to do because it was raining cats and dogs for two straight days, everybody seems to be so lazy to even steps out of their house, plus thunder and lightning strikes every two minutes which prevented me to be online.

And lastly I ended up fishing udang harimau near my house with a friend of mine, while waiting for everybody to shutdown their lights. Surprisingly, nobody did so though, although I believe everybody is aware about the campaign. At least I am.

And unsurprisingly, we catch none. There goes my RM22 and 1 hour of my life, just like that. How easy nowadays to waste your money, but still, it is better than lying on the bed alone doing nothing.

Movie Talk part 2

I am a great admirer of Bryan Singer's works. I mean, he is brilliant when he had his hand on the camera. His masterpiece, The Usual Suspects, is the greatest of his works I believe. Man, who can ever forget when Verbal Kint walked out of the police station cripple, and slowly the cripple gone, then came a car, a man came out and light him a cigar, he put one leg in the car, look outside for a while, puff a little bit, and gone off. Man, I was like, what the fuck???? That was brilliant! That was awesome! The same feeling when you find out how Andy Dufresne escape from the prison in Shawshank Redemption, and the same feeling you found out Bruce Willis is actually dead already in Six Sense. Fucking brilliant!

And that's not all. I just love the whole movie actually. How he played with the background songs, the scripts, I just love a movie with good lines.

"The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. And like that, poof. He's gone."

I don't actually know where the lines were originally from, but the first time I heard it was in the movie. Catchy eh?

And I love his other works too. X-Men, X-2, Superman Returns, I love it all.

I am glad he was brought in to direct Superman, because the original director's version, Brett Retner, is like a super crap.

"Abrams story re-imagined Superman as a Kryptonian prince sent to earth as a baby to avoid an impending civil war between king Jor-El and his brother Kata-Zor. Raised as Midwestern teen Clark Kent, and in love with his high school sweetheart Lois, Superman becomes humanity's defender when Kata-Zor invades Earth, aided by CIA Agent Lex Luthor, who is actually a Kryptonian in disguise. The film ended with Superman returning to Krypton to rule over his people after the death of Jor-El." (www.imdb.com)

Are you kidding me?? That's not Superman Returns! That is Super Faggot Kicking-His-Uncle-Ass-To-Become-A-King Returns! Brett Retner loves to do something bombastic. Look what he did to X-Men 3. Freaking lame. I hate it.

And I just love the Bryan Singer's version. How the emotional retention between Superman/Clark Kent and Lois Lane, and the background musics. One of my favourites scene, when Lois was trapped together with his fiance and son in the boat, all hope was lost, before suddenly Superman steps on the boat, and brought it up over the sea. And then the Superman's theme song slowly blend in.. brilliant. And also the scene after he throw that huge rock to the sun, he fell down, everybody just watching helplessly, and then Boomm! He hits the ground. I was silence. No background songs or any lines can be heard.

And the lines, I just love it.

Lex Luthor: Do you know the story of Prometheus? No, of course you don't. Prometheus was a god who stole the power of fire from the other gods and gave control of it to the mortals. In essence, he gave us technology, he gave us power.
Kitty Kowalski: So we're stealing fire? In the Arctic?
Lex Luthor: Actually, sort of. You see whoever controls technology controls the world. The Roman empire ruled the world because they built roads. The British empire ruled the world because they built ships. America; the atom bomb. And so on and so forth. I just want what Prometheus wanted.
Kitty Kowalski: Sounds great Lex, but you're not a god.
Lex Luthor: [fixes Kitty with an icy stare] Gods are selfish beings who fly around in little red capes and don't share their power with mankind. No, I don't want to be a *god*. I just want to bring fire to the people. And... I want my cut. (www.imdb.com)

How fucking awesome is that?

But of course, the movie lack of characters strength. Nothing much memorable about the character, not something you can remember like Forrest Gump, General Maximus Decimus Meridius, Chuck Noland of Cast Away, or even Captain Jack Sparrow.

Sadly, I have no idea why the rating was so low in IMDB. 6.7. That low. Or am I just sucker for low Q movies? Ha Ha.

At the moment, his latest movie, Valkyrie is on the show right now. Surprisingly I am not tempted to go and watch, not tempted at all. Wait for the torrent then I guess?

Rant of the Week

Today, we shall review on the latest news that arose around us.

The political turmoil in Perak.
Sighh... too tired to even listen to this. So, i'll pass.

Dewan Rakyat Tun for P.Ramlee?
I think this is inappropriate. What makes the different if you give Tun to him anyway? He is already dead if you haven't notice. You guys in Dewan Rakyat give titles to people so easily. Wait. The royalties money will go double? Something fishy is going on here.

PPSMI is not relevant?
Some people thinks PPSMI is not relevant to be implemented, especially if you relate it with the students in kampung or luar bandar. If you ask me, I say PPSMI is a mere experiment. Thats it. You will never know the good and the bad, until you do it and get the result. If you even ask Tun M., i bet you he did not know the answer. But he believes, this is the shortcut for us to become a first-world country. He believes, in order for us to pursue the one to be pursuit, we must run faster that it, thus, the we can't use the same method as what it has been used. Some unthinkable methods might be the right one. I say, go for it!

Bajet mini RM10b
Pass!!

AF7
Frankly speaking I only watched AF2, which is the best yet ever of it. AF7, if they still maintain the same concept where students can't sing and perform, but depend on symphatetic crap as always, you gonna say bye bye to many of it fans. We got tired already with the same shit. Give us some other shit that worth smelling!

Manure gonna win 5 cups this season?
You can dream on Manure! (But my heart was thumping like a herd of galloping horses when they won the League Cup the other day. Stupid Spurs. That's why I hated Spurs.)

Raja Shahirah got married
The daughter of Datuk Raja Kamarul Bahrin, we kidnapped his own daughter from her mother in Australia, and sailed back to Malaysia single handedly, got married yesterday. (Is this a hot issues worth mentioning?) She's hot! (You God damn right it's worth mentioning!) Mak dia omputeh dowhh, what can you expect?

Global Economic Crisis?
All I can say is that, if you got money, which means extra money that you don't know what else to do with it, then give it to me. Blerghh.. Nope instead, this is the right time to invest. And of course this is not the right time to quit your job.

ps: This weekend gonna be a boring one.

Guus Hiddink Is The Best Coach In The World?

So Chelsea won 2-1 against Wigan last night. No I'm not a fan of Chelshit, that's why I call it "Chelshit", not "Love Chels" or whatever. And I'm not gonna talk about Chelshit too. Who in the world would ever listen to somebody talk about shit anyway?

But me gonna talk about Guus Hiddink, their current manager at the moment.

I believe he is a great coach. Clubs and national level, he is great at both of it. Just look at his impressive resume. He brought Holland to the semi of World Cup 98, barely lost to Brazil on penalty shootouts. I was a very beautiful game, I witnessed it, and it was one of the best game I ever watched.

Perhaps he was most remembered in 2002, where he leaded South Korea to the World Cup 2002 semi final. But if you ask me again, I say it was much because of luck, but still an impressive achievement you can be proud of.

In 2006, he took over Australia National team for only 6 months before the big tournament, the team nearly eliminated during the qualifying, but somehow he manage to save it and brought the Aussies to the World Cup for the first time after 32 years. They even scored their first goal, and manage to proceed to the 2nd round for the first time in their history.

And then, in 2008, he brought Russia to as far as semi final in Euro 2008, although in the early campaign, the team looked quite fragile especially after their lost to Israel by 1-2. He is the responsible person for the rise of Russian stars like Pavlyuchenko and Andrei Arshavin.

And now, he is the caretaker of team Chelsea.. erm I mean Chelshit. The first 2 games looks good, with a win against Juventus and Wigan.

Okay enough of his history already. The main question is, is he really the greatest football coach in the world at the moment? Is he?

The answer is, I don't think so. Wait until he be the head coach of Malaysia, only then he will know the real world of amateur football. Wait, doesn't Malaysia's football goes professional already? Who the fuck cares, they played like a sissy girl anyway.

And wait until he can take Malaysia to the World Cup, only then I will hail him as the best coach in the world. Until then, we will wait.

But maybe we will die waiting.
