This Week Movie Buff for the pop corn.

there is a really interesting movie by the Cloverfield fame Mike Vogel.
The Deaths of Ian Stone, though it's another querky movie from the star and his married status is a bit of a turn off for dreamy girls. still the handsome, dreamy actor have a certain attraction to the crowd. this is not a bad story, just that mayb too many death for the main character to handle by the young movie going girls out there to watch. but it's great idea for a story to be telling if you know you are going to die and you are going to revive everytime, what would happen and what would you do?

there is a few OSCAR inspired sceening at the cinema at the moment which i didn't really go for it yet because the storyline for these story are too gloom. like "There Will Be Blood","Charlie Wilson's War" and "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead". All are either by some OSCAR winners or the current OSCAR nominee. but all are too close to reality for the moment for me. No Doubt the performance are great. just not my cup of the tea of the month.

Besides that of course there's this small but young action movie that have very little promotion done out this week called Redline. mayb it's just too close to the story of "The Fast and The Furious" to start with that it's drop out of most people's eye sight.


The real buzz of the week with be "10000 B.C." the pre-historic, hero movie, emphasize on the one man story on how in the course of saving his only love one. defying the demand of the human-God and in the end kill the imposter and become the earliest hero in the fictional history. which star the hunkie Covenant star, Steven Strait. plenty of visual and sound effect. it's a effect filled big budget movie that doesn't involve any futuristic backdrop. or shall i say that a prehistoric story witha futuristic hero twist haha. so everyone. enjoy.

one Small but unnoticable movie is the British disaster film Flood. also a visual and audio FX filled movie. just that in imaging and the effects usually from the conventional britain could be a bit too artsy sometimes than realistic. so I'm not really that enthusiastic about it. but if you are into effects disaster films this might be a good choice this week.

There we Have it the New !2 contestant to perform in the Big Stage!

The American Idol Finally have come out with the new 12 Contestant tonight.

Althought Asia'h have perform a great opening for last night show, it's still not enough to cover her Grungy look.

As I've predicted Kady have come to the end of the line for the girls. after Last night 80's performance, actually I can only pen in Kady for the girls. It's still a struggle for the rest of the other Female who will get the dozen nod. and Asia'h is the sacrifice of the week. as Female's performance this year is still uncertain so the contest is pretty Dynamics for the girls.

As for the guys, Luke And Danny is out just as predicted.

Now it's a mix Games. who will go out first from the 12. and normally this is the most unpredictable part of the show. because all votes are going for one of the male or female contestants.
For me the ranking for the Guys and Girls Mix is
1. David Archuleta
2. Carly Smithson
3. Amanda Overmyer
4. David Cook
5. David Hernandez
6. Chikezie Eze
7. Brooke White
8. Ramiele Malubay
9. Syesha Mercado
10. Jason Castro
11. Michael Johns
12. Kristy Lee Cook

Last 2 Contestant actually is lost based on popularity, as for Castor, his performance is a mix of good and bad. Ramiele and Syesha still not performing to the par. and all 2nd-5th rank won with Distinct Style in their performance. Brooke Loses to Chikez on distinct image, not musically related, just not that relatable to the audiences in her performance. but basically they are really great 70's -80's kinda music. As for Chikezie being the only dark male of the group. he's not really up to the expectation of a great black artist yet. so he is in a whole other evaluation bar than the rest.
as for likability, potential and musical talent (not really all aspect is outstanding than the others),all aspect taken into account David Archuleta is the estimated miles away from the rest of the group. but Like Jordan, he may not sale CD but he does sell ratings for the show.

the rest just have to keep up. but from this week's performance. they are not really far off the rank either, for the contestant from Chikezie and above. though there's still some doubt how Carly would perform after last night performance. not her best really. Amanda is gaining a steady climb. So is David Cook and David Hernandez.

That would be all there is for this week AI.

American Idol Updates!!

Well, this week's voting have begun.
This time is a really interesting moment. for the very first time the top Male singer have a shuffle. Trying to hard to actually show a instrumental side. David Archuleta find difficulty in navigating the Piano and the Camera and lost his concertration for a moment. Which given David Cook a lead this time, though he have a little glitches on his instrument but his performance are perfect this time around. this time the 3 Davids have a big shuffle.
with David Cook leading the pack with his consistance rock style and perfect rendition of Lionel Richie's classics, then follow by the much controvercial David Hernandez this week. and David Archuleta tailing at 3rd place. but Tru and tru, David A. It's just a small mishab. you are still the greatest voice of all of them. So makes the show much much more interesting to watch when you have a competitor instead of a one man show. so. David A. Keep up the good work. keep charging on man. one small mishab isn't sucha big deal. you still pull it together and not many of the contestant really have perform surpasses yours.
So besides the 3 Dav in front. the rest of the clan left will be Chikeze. if any of the 3 david really have a contest is chikeze. though the note are graet last night Chikeze performances is not the best since so i give him the 4th place this week. Micheal Johns is the next to come. still the same old same old, not really outstanding. like Simon says, lack of Wow factor. still the rocker though. and the 6th i believe should be in the final 12 is Jason Castro. though without a Guitar last night is a bit of an off-beat act and he's inability to communicate with the musician about the arrangment of he song is a big problem. unless he plans to plan his own music himself the coming performance or got to get tru whatever the synchronization problem he has, it'll hard for him to pull tru after the final 12 begun or even now he is vulnerable. this is the final week before the big final 12. and i believe. Danny have got his chance to prove himself this long and one good performance out of 3 is a strike 3 for me. so sorry. and last 3 out of 3, Luke proves to be the weakest link of the male contestant and if the Vote for the Wrost Clan is not an influence this year, then Luke should be a goner this week. Sorry to say, it's a shame to lose someone with that good looks.

so this weeks male contestant ranking is as (in my opinion)
1. David Cook (Finally the Nasty Rocker Got the Big Freaking Break)
2. David Hernandez (This week's gossip h\king Blown everyone away with hail Note)
3. David Archuleta (Don't Give up buddy, come back with a Bang on the 90's, just be natural, to hell with the camera.)
4.Chikeze (show us some fun next week will you?)
5.Micheal Johns(Rock on Man.)
6.Jason Castro (IF you are not gone this time, try picking up the guitar back, or get going with the musician more will you?)
7. Danny Noriega (Sorry Man, it's just ain't good enough. mayb after much improvement, you'll get to it in other means. just keep improving. Less the Arrogance)
8. Luke Menard (Sorry Man you are too far gone and too soft for a male singer. you need umgh and this should be as far as you'll gonna get.)

As for the Female, as Simon says, none of them actually shines tru at the moment, that is why i still have no pick on the female. many of them have done good work but none were great work. and some with good work comes a couple bad mishab in the pass 2 weeks. I hope this week those who shines could really pop out of the crowd. As I know the good one now is Carly, Amanda, and Brooke (These Chicks Got Style man) and really to me their rank is in that order. and the non-Rocker Chicks Like Ramiele and Syesha is only ok. Remiele I can see can make it into the top 12 but Syesha though with some great Hollywood performances have been pretty dissapointing for the time being. Asia'h Actually gave a good performance last week. I wish that she could keep up the good work this week and mayb she could top the Rocker chick. and these are my top Six female pick. sorry for the pretty blonde this year, Kady and Kristy, you are not so bad, just not really the top nudge material. so the bottom 5 really is a bit shaky at the moment. my pick for this week without today's performance are
1. Carly Smithson (You Rock on Girl)
2. Amanda Overmyer (Great Great rocker voice, and very very unique, even more unique than the Male singer. just need to find that one rock song that could define you.)
3. Brooke White (She's more of a Hippie kinda style Classic singer with a twist, she may be a surprise now with David showing a softer grip on the Title spot.)
4. Ramiele Malubay (Need to choose a more careful song choice that really show off your great pipe)
5. Asia'h Epperson(Keep up the good work girl, just need to gather more momentum with more great song choice.)
6. Syesha Mercado (your need to wail now girl. you are not showing off your talent at all. you are totally underexpose now. and in danger)
7. Kristy Lee Cook (You have some great moment, where have that girl gone to?)
8. Kady Malloy (You just have to work harder this week. you are not safe yet but you are not failing tru totally either.)
wish for the best for all the contestant this week.

another New Week have come and gonna pass YEAH!

well, since I haven't even included my last weeks blog here goes.

A lot of things gonna happen. Primaries for Texas and Ohio have started and Obama still leading the race. Of course the sole survivor of the republic camp trus on with a minor scandal.



and tru the weekend I've gone for 4 movies.

First up is Vantage Point. this one you really have to read the Sypnosis before you go to the cinema man. It's about 8 vantage point of the same incident. so the plot is one incident.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Spoiler ahead ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~






So there's only one incident that probably in normal movie editing would only last for maybe 45 minutes. and so every hour in the movie...... they rewind the scene and you start looking at another person's vantage points. Yes, you get the whole picture and the whole story what's happened and with a whole great cast you'd love to sit tru the movie feel great.

First vantage point is a great shocker, and great performance from Sigourney Weaver, then of course is Dennis Quaid turn, still a great move from the first plot. Fine. but by the time you reach Whitaker and the local Assasins you got so many anti climax that you feel like you want it to just move on with it and get it over with. of course this is one movie besides Cloverfield that people are leaving the cinema before the movies ended. of course this actually fair batter than cloverfield. Though another innovative eeffort from the film maker but sorry just not the ordinary people's cup of tea. though i enjoy the acting and the car chase. segmentizing it makes it great to watch but all together. the setup of the story is just simply not enough momentum to rewind and keep people on their seats. Sorry.



Next stop, Martian Child. I'm so glad that I seen this movie. Just as I expected, It's light hearted. to tell the truth this one is even more suspendful than the 8 Vantage Points combine. and a simple laughter and the relation between a "Martian" with a Man is simply facinating. Truly in the end aren't we all Martian on earth? there's no individual the same. and this kid simply is being the briliant kids that he is, simply provoke thoughts and imspiration. and there's a sense of freesom watching this one.

this is the exact evidence that even a low budget character driven movie can be greater than a big budget action movie.



so I took a rest and gone for the next 2 movies the next day.

first stop would be "The Mist". Yes one of the great horror movie created by the great Stephen King. Fine, that aside. I'm sure that everyone that have read the book would not be going near the movie theatre soon for the movie you know the reason why.

But if you haven't you'd love to go and watch it. it's one of the most facinating horror/ supernatural movie I've seen for years. and still the story is very character driven. Marcia Gay Harden gave the greatest performance of the "Devil Witches from Hell", it's really a great display what stage could fear drive a person or even a community to.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Spoiler Ahead ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Sadly, the story ended so depressingly, I need to go get another movie straight away to get myself of the psychotic Chronic Depression path. Imagine this, when you thought you are hopeless and all the people are dead and left you alone and when you thought you have no more hope, the rescue "National Guard" have arrive. besides the death of everyone you know and love you lived. -------------------- Do not read on if you truly are planning to watch the movie.



only the plot is hundred times more depressing than that. A great shocker and a twist to the end of the movie but not the nice kind.



So instead of staying miserable for the whole day, i gone into another cinema of the cineplex the next hour to watch the great uplifting "Step Up 2: The Street". The setup and the storyline is not too bad. but with "You've got Served" and "Step Up" still fresh in the mind. "The Street"



isn't really such a new idea anymore and far far of the beat of a new style, it took the same formula of the first movie just put in a few new character and a new storyline. so it's not too bad but it's not fresh and the character really isn't as much developed as the first movie. But stilll the dance move is still as wicked if not better than the first movie. and the cast is fresh.

American Idol Update!

Well, nothing much to say except that as the judges have said. David Archuleta is Growing, Stronger and stronger every wek. this time the Audience as if went in to see him. He Closes the show with the ultimate 70's song, John Lennon's "Imagine". the 16 yo is brave enough to take a legendary song and makes it his own. and as Simon says, the race is simply a catching up games and everyone is competing with the teenager. This time the crowd didn't even wait for the performance to start they already giving standing ovation and screaming.

But this week besides David's rein of domination also sees some of the favourite of the judges breaking free of the losing pack.
David Hernandez and Chikeze to name the couple that's on the top 3. but to tell the truth they still seems a mile away from David Archuleta performance Paula even tear up on the closing performance. I hope that in the spirit of competition the remain professional and no dirty tactics on the teenager. anyway, this time the rockers fail out. Both David Cook and Robbie Carrico wasn't really bad but not better than last week either. though this time Cook took the lead. the disappointment comes from the opening by Micheal johns opening. not exactly superb. just good for me and lowest of the rockers clan this week. Mayb it's my previous fixation of Danny Noriega, he did better this week. but still a long way to prove he wasn't Sanjaya the second. but he did performance with decent show off of his vocal this time. so a plus for the kid. not A though. Jason Yeagar is a bit here and there, and Jason Castro remain his style of guitar and funkie tune. both staying the same would means Yeager the bottom 2 and Castro will mayb move on if the audience voter is not bored yet. then of course there's Luke Menard, brother you really gotta pick it up man. if you are really planning on going on with your looks you are not gonna move far. your voice is simply too soft man.
so my rating this week for the guys are:
1.David Archuleta
2.David Hernandez
3.Chikeze
4.David Cook
5.Robbie Carrico
6.Danny Noriega
7.Micheal Johns
8.Jason Castro
9.Jason Yeagar
10.Luke Menard
sorry bottom 2 there's simply no more time for you to wait to show more.

the girls I hope the Rock Chick can do better this week and show more skill. last week been fun too watch them and a couple of the more melodious songstress. but a dissappointment for me is SyeshaMercado. I did expect more from her last week. hope that she could do better this week. there's no front runner in the womens yet. but i do see some back runner. and all in all still David Archuleta is the Top fella in the whole season, actually i've not seen one that could take the stage as well as him since the start of the show besides Fantasia. So everyone need to look out.
But I wonder though, among this season he is the greater but among the previous season is he better than Clay Aiken or Fantasia his singing skill are very familiar to Elliott Yamen of the 5th season actually. Rather having a star cast as last year, this year's contestant seem more ameture really regardless of the age.

A New Wednesday

I have been pretty off beat these few days, though not down. just off a little.
but yesterday something changes my life. watching a rerun of Oprah, she gave a show on the topic of death, but the perspective is totally New. not the gloomy and sad approaches of death. instead, the truth about death is that we all will face. So this is how we face it. once in a while we all ask a silly question about if you know that you'd die tomorrow or the date you'll die what would you do? and the answer is whatever i like and feel i want to. So Oprah does one that ask the person who is really in the situation and it's a inspirational and spiritual show.

first there's this lady who say she got the wake up call and stop all tobacco and drinking and start eathing greens and drinking greens. and she gone from a normal, wild life to a healthy, wild, fulfilling life, and started training as an acrobat as well haha. That's how you can choose to end or live a real life instead of being gloomy even when you have nothing but boredom. So go do something. Boredom is not exactly a dying desease. so this really put me into a perspective to my own life.

the next one would be an internet phenomanon, Randy Pausch the computer science freak professor of Carnergie Mullen University, have his real "Hypotheticly Last Lecture when you kow you are going to die" on his last lecture. everyone shown up in the lecture hall. he is diagnos with pankreatic cancer and given 6 months. And what he did is uplifting and the lecture I'd say everyone whould take. you can watch it on youtube.

every Lecture, Professor, Educator should be like this or if you think you can inspire yourself to be one. you can if you just put your mind to it. so this is what i meant to live life at the present. not about yesterday and tomorrow. now today.

this is the link if you wish to watch it on youtube. it's a bit over an hour and the most mesmerizing and inspring lecture I've ever been to. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ji5_MqicxSo&session=tj1_ZujBosz_JPzspHXrsOBSZ2z45olemFGYMtNNdkA5UJHEolpJ6_Bq-kELe5jqGPbBUbJlUxNqTZ1sPuoU3kIV_Li0TFoOW8omXaaSVF8WvM1ujAdKgSmcss2p_Ut4eji_3vXQFvaFE5Kz5icDW3M5JoLctYo4OhT3jHOvStaSU0UOaZnKa6PBzZMo7QZ-sSpCjWLdYHsOH2iC2shz0dP3ZCLzXX3RXMdDm3EEhCC9keIlmSwvwCKAUko2_j_a

This is the answer for the many question about sexual preferences

Finally I saw this article about sexual orientation and preference.
O.K. people ask what's the different.
As always, I'm always pleague but the fact that most of my articles and things that I involved in mostly are male issue. one reason is that I am one so naturally i give more attention to such issues and the other could be habitual because I give more attention to male fashion or male health or male issue (Gay also contains of male species as you'd guess) so it appears to people that I am not interested in Girls and I could be Gay.

so What's that got to do with the article i find.
as the article suggest every issue or topics in life there are millions of perspective and angle to look at it. so let me explain.
Sexual Orientation is when you are doing it, which sex are you doing it with. or more deeply, when you actually fall in love, which sex you fall in love to. when you are male, you love male or you do it with male counterpart, then you are gay, you love girls then you are hetero, and if you are both then you are bi-sexual, and orientation means what you do. but preference is different which sex you like. guy who like guys or girl who love girls, you "prefer" homo, the other way around is you are hetero. if both is bi-sexual. so besides this 2 perspective, there's one more angle to look at this issue. that's habitual preferences, that is without any inteference from outside, a person naturally choose to be in which category. just like the natural law of physics, if one things moves and there's no other force act on it, the object moves on the direction as it is forever. so just like someone from Texas where they never talks about gays or a religious community that never talks about it or the children never encounter the issue and never thought about it, if there's no hormon changes, they naturally would select the orientation they always sees and heard and experience themselves. in most cases that's heterosexual, some homo. for me just the case is that I love girls, and when internet enter my life I take on the persona of finding out issue, topics regarding men, and definition of beauty in men and definition of men. Why the sudden interest. well, I've lost me father when i was very young, without a father figure, I'm learning to be a man at the time. so i need info. The other reason is that I live with my mom and most of the people I'm with, relative and all, most of them are women. By that time, I have gain a lot of knowledge how the other sex behave, likes and dislikes, and most importantly I have seen many things that dissapoint me and arouse me that makes me treat female differently, not like when guys want or like a girl he'd go all out and not knowing anything and being cute acting like that. me, i have no problem with girls(ust the kind that have certain standard about guys and every man she looks at must be a perfect man in her life, advice: not all man are interested in this kinda girls cos not all man like to be changed), and most of my closest friends are female, not in a remantic kinda way. so I'm not really in that group of guys into sports and only have sex or football in their mind and want to know the other sex so eagerly. All those factor I don't have. and as a result I'm looking for a partner in crime that could go deeper than that and so it seems harder to find a soul mate. so thus it seems after such habitual orientation for years, without a girl in sight, people would think you are Gay. (you know, a bunch of good friends that's female, non-romantically involved, don't really watch football, love artistic stuff all that.)that's quite fine for me. there's no hurry. to me I rather be late then just choose one and be not-happily ever after. One other reason out of habit, at that moment there's a movement about AIDS and Gay, the relationship and all, so naturally from the internet there's a lot of info and I'm a male, and since Gay are more likely to get AIDS I want to know if the decease have gender preference. so more and more I dug into the hole and more and more I know about gay stuff. and meet a lot of gay poeple. and so, I............................ do Gay issue and topics (you thought I'm gonna say naturally I'm gay? haha!) discussion. Longer the time span the more people I know and the more info I learn, though the statistic shows there's more "reported" Gay AIDS cases, it's rubbish to think that AIDS is a Gay issue or even have Gender preferences. Yet there's more issue and interest and topics, that can interact and discuss about the Gay community and so there goes on and on about it. and in comparison, I discuss less and very few women's issue, or more over Men on men Issue because that'st where my knowledge actually lack of and wish to know more. I find that trying to generalize things is not going to work on a men's girl's relationship. those things every case is different. and every case have their own issue. so my very personal friends knows I give them advice. To me, Guys if you want to go for it, romantic or not, just be natural and just think if she is your girl how you wanted to treat her(and please I don't mean sexually). when you get to know her and she knows you eventually they will come. and girls if you want a guy, regardless of whether there's a girl (wife aside not recommended), you know you won't be happy unless you know if he is into you. just act morally. and do believe the fact that not all nuts are mad about what's down under. so you can open up, see what's happen, no need to pretend, no need to fuss, and no need to overthink everything. just go for it. you like the car test drive the stick, just be careful and if you don't just refuse it. most importantly, dun overthink it.
Love is a wonderful things. you laugh, you cry, you fight and it never fail to amaze. just be sure of what you want and go for it. enjoy it. Guys on guys? that's kinda tricky and you'd think whether the person is gay or not only you'd move. so just observe first, if you think you can make a move then do it. if he is not then sorry man next time then. but they always say once you see it you know if he is or not, they always say they got the instinct. I don't know, If I am gay, I dun have that instinct haha! (which is why I'd like to know actually how homosexual poeple find their soul mate and all.)

The Verdict is in

First batch of Idol to be eliminated is Colton Davis, Joanne Borgella, Garrett Haley, Amy Davis. well IT's a sad case really to be clear off from the first show. they are on my last 3 cat though i still think they are better than Danny Noriega. and I believe the judges may have another Sanjaya cases this year.
So 2 young male blonds was goner, simply the reason is too cheeky and too inexperience.
and then for the girls I did watch the show. just that there's nothing much to say. because overall they are not performing as well as the guys. of course most thinking whether want to take the flu strike into consideration. all consideration aside, the plus size moel is off the stage as well as the "soft" skilled Amy is booted.
though i think on the girls side yesterday, is the case how to choose the worst. the Controversial Carly definitely have the chops to move on. just that as Simon says though pro but not enough umph yet. the Wow factor is still with the guys. the girls have seem to fail to impress anyone this year. ashame that it's not a gendre mix vote. if it is. i do think that Colton and Garrett would still be around for the next trip if it's a mix vote. reason be that their singing isn't really that bad compare to some contestant, even to the male i mean. and they do have some appeal. If Haley could pick the tune up a bit and Colton would tone downa bit. mayb they can form a group or something and become like the sexy Russian Dou, .strange they they actually look almost like brothers.

Anyway, this week's AI news is over. I may not be updating all the time. only the time when i actually do watch the show. so stay tune. Ciao, Peace OUT!

The first Live show of Season 7 American Idol have started

Yesterday the voting for the new 7th season American Idol have started. and the Heat Seated David Archuleta have won over the Audiences and Judge with the largest Applause of them all 12 Male contestant. Last time we saw him, we are shock and this time though we anticipated the result still it's a great surprise that he could deliver a 60's song with perfection and his own touch. impressed even the Harshes judges Simon and Estimated will flow through smoothly. so if you are in the US vote for the uber talented and cute David Archuleta.
Trust me your bet is not waste.

of course being one of the hardest contest out there, it's not short of talent but the day also bring some dissapointment. David Hernandez show off his stuff with a great start for the show. Followed by Chikezie's performance, both performance are good but not top notch meterial and both shows there are still a lot of space to improve. (means they are just a round the edges of 5-6 out of 10) then David Cook is the next to go on and presented a rave review of Rock style "Happy Together" this is the first one from the 7th season show that shows an incling of the Chris Daughtry flavor perfomance, thought it's not one of the best rock performance of the say but the performance is solid. then Jason Yeager show his sweet side by performing "moon River" and shown the audiences how an adult could seduce with songs yet a bad example as a contestant that lost abit of his focus during the performance. Next comes Robbie Carrico, it's some soft rock style performance, though Simon think it's niether nor here or there, I'd say so are ColdPlay so my bet is he's gonna stay. Of course from this not so bad performance, turn into a red hot inferno coming to the next perfromance for david Archuleta, the crooner wimply wow everyone with a solid and close to professional performance and a great presentation on stage and the girl just can't get enough of him, screaming from the start to the end and louder whenever he gets near. (mind you there's not prejudision here, he is the only one that makes the audience gives such reaction). and after that Simon gaves a million miles length from the others for the lad. so after that we are all dump into a cold bucket of water afterwards. I know following a great act is hard to top, yet lack of originality and singing a great famous elvis song and not sounding great or dance great is a big no no. and Danny Noriega falls into that trap and put himself in the risk of running for the first to be voted out of the show, yet he does have the aura of previous season top 10's Sanjaya, so we'll see what will happen tomorrow. Luke Menard, the oldest of all the male contestant looks relatively young and handsome. he holds the feel of Matthew Fox, Yet he's singing are a bit weak until half of the time TV audience would strain to listen to what he's singing. it's not a bad performance, the pitch is nearly perfect just weak. but he sound like acrooner at heart. he is in my opinion one of the weakest this week.
next came the Lucas Grabeel/Ellen DeGeneres Look-Alike Colton Berry, his is not at all bad, just cheesy, too cheesy for my taste and i believe most male audiences. his singing is not too bad. not exactly in the league of professional, but not too bad either, I'll give a 5 out of 10 there. oh if you are wondering, Archuleta get only 8 out of 10 from me. Why? simply I'm harsh, and with more perfect performance, he'll get the top 10 marks just that I still have some reserve for his age and the durability of his vocal. though right now my bet is on him. NExt comes the other youngest of the lot, Garrett Haley. he shows that he is really raw and young, his performance are here and there. some way of it is good, the singing are on pitch yet lack of bit of self confidence singing, and definitely not in speaking back to Simon, yet though he's lack of personality in his performance, he persona may get him pass the gate. so he is the third in the weakest rack of the lot. (oh i didn't mean the weakest in that particualr order.) the second last to perform is Jason Castro, he gave a funkie and not so typical performance of Daydream and being the only one perform with a guitar in the show he get my vote, and he's not bad, 6 out of 10. just behind David until you come to the closing. but to get 7 out of 10 he'd have to improve much much more cos it seems that he's taken the best he has this time and there's very few space for improvement there. We'll see, he's a stayer in my bet. of course last but not least Micheal Johns, this season resident Rocker of the lot. he's performance far out shine the same aged Luke Menard and deliver the almost perfect rock version of Light My Fire and give the show a great and better closing than an opening.

I think this week rank for the guys according the pervious show is (My personal Preferance is different though)
David Archuleta (1)
Micheal Johns (2)
Jason Castro (4)
Robbie Carrico (5)
Jason Yeagar (3, because his maturity Rating and Sweet Crooner Style, regardless of the old fashion 60's song)

Moive Review of the week

Jumper, I just went for the movie last weekend. not bad not bad at all. the Handsome Hayden Christensen is even hotter than his Jedi period. Jamie Bell gave another great performance as the formidable Jumper side soldier with a little bit of Psychotic breakdown haha. and Samuel L Jackson never took a role that makes me actually hate him to the bone. Of course not to forget the rising star that star as the younger alter ego of the 2 main character. Max Thieriot from the "Catch The Kid" period is growing Well, better looking day by day, movie by movie. Rather I was waiting for some better performance from Anna Sophia Robb of "Bridge to Terrabithia" fame. OF course Last but not least Rachel Bilson of "the O.C." tv series fame first full length feature gave the best perfomance of her life in this one. Sheding the Spoiled, rich Brat image of the tv series and rises from a ashes is a modest and humorous girl in the suburb. The action is easily better than Bourne or MR and Mrs Smith really. and the Visual Effect just blend into the movie perfectly just as realistic as anything around it. The concept is perfect. More tear jerker It's be up for a more dramatic Category.



O.K. this week we Preview the show called "Vantage Point" I didn't expect to watch this one at first really because I haven't seen much of the preview. It's coming in Tomorrow. and It's a story about the US president killed in a foreign country and there's 5 person with 8 different vantage point of the incident. starring the Oscar winner Forest Whitaker and 2 hunky father of Hollywood Dennis Quaid and Matthew Fox this is a high speed high tension movie from the start of the event til the end. you won't want to miss this one.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Spoiler ahead ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The Twist is that the President is not really killed. and the so called killer is actually a remote controlled automated Gun. So is the president behind it all or is it the secret service. and what's Whitaker really involves in this story?

and of course this time you will see the return of the ultimate female actress of them all Sigourney Weaver.



This week's Treasure chest jewel is "Raise Your Voice" I know I know, It's not really a Block office big nor an Award winning something. but I'm a total sucker for some Teenage Motivation movies or comedy. starring Hillary Duff of course you can expect the usual chicky movie type. actually this one is a bit off the normal beaten path. it have a take on some teen comedy and trust me. if you are looking for a good talent in today's youngster there are quite a few in this one. first off of course needless to say Hillary Duff. but as I said the surprise is on the side stand.

the male lead Oliver James coming from the fame of "What a Girl Wants" is a great singer really. he's shown that he is capable in his previous movie and this one. and he's not a bad looking guy to look at either. The music in this movie is simply great. The Arrangement and some of the "Impomptu" performance. of course the story line is simple. a gilr lost her brother in a traggic accident and then recieve a oppotunity supported by her dead brother to enroll in a prestige music school summer programme. defying her fathers opinion, she left for the programme under the disguise of staying with her aunt. there she met the love and the talent and a bunch of great friends and of course teen B***h, Queen Bee of the school who happens to be in love with the same guy...... (yeah cheezy i know). and then of course the climax, father found out, show talent anyhow, forgiveness and happy ending. Just take some popcorn sit down and relax with your girlfriend trust me she'll appreciate it. as long as she is not those movie enthusias freak that only like OSCAR great or Rock chicks. haha. Enjoy.

Hey there! Everyone I'm Back!

Been taking some break from the whole working scene for a week while all the chinese around the world celebrate the Lunar New Year, and American either voting or trying to escape the ice storm or tornado. Oh and the Hong Kong Star Rushes away from the whole Nude-sex-act photo scandal. Me been chilling in the tropical paradise of the south east asia with a bunch of below 5 kids damn there goes my holiday haha. taking care of all the children haha.



Guys and Girls what were you thinking? Taking Pic of Sex act and send the PC for repair?have some senses and delete all inappropriate photo in your or anyone pc now and lost if forever. with the network growing so fast once it's out there I'm sorry to say there's no way back man. And if you wish to be like Paris Hilton and not become a porn star in the end make sure you have enough money for the rest of your life or an ambition to go bad if not you are bound to be even worse than the Material Girl would have in the 80's cos then we dun have internet Babe.



Anyway what's up this week. the Grammy is over and Amy Winehouse regardless of her mishab, "rehab" is a biggie. then the BAFTA honour the movies like the rest of the world did, Atonement got the best movie and that's all. wonder though how a movie become great without a great cast or writing or even editing? strange how some awards does sometimes.



besides that the next global attraction of the year in Cinema Park is "Jumper" starring the ever so handsome Hayden Christenson of "Star Wars 2,3" fame and Rachel Bilson of "The O.C.". sorry guys no more geeky fantasy for you, she fell in love with the tall, handsome and Gymnastic-perfect Hayden right then and there. the movie about a generation of teleportable Jumper battling out another bunch of "normal if not psycho" guys pledge to kill them all with the ability.



Of cors there's more to go this week marks the 25 years of "thriller". the Micheal Jackson's 25 yo hit get a remake. for those of you born in the past 10 years, you'll be more appreciative of the collaboration of the CD with Ne-Yo, Fergie and Snoop Dog.



continue of the movie trail, I open my movie chest and found another great missing classics that's not of any Awards trail but a great cast have assemble, with Cher heading the show, All the old and beautiful and not to miss Talented are there, Dame Judy Dench, Maggie Smith,Joan Plowright and Lily Tomlin and not to mention the only Male lead, Baird Wallace in the movie that could steal the whole movie from all the great ladies. another movies that represent what movie's drama is all about. A setting in the Mussolini times of Italy and bunch of retired single women migrants in Italy send to concertrated camp yet with some miracle still fine humor and life in the great wall of the not so tightly guarded fence of Florence. And the kid that have been apart of the old socialite ladies life 10 year ago comes to the rescue of the ladies and offers a great comfort to the ladies of news of the outside world. i find that human a great being and capable to create better life for normal ppl with just small deed and a big hearts. and the relationship of the child-teenager Lucas with the ladies is simply captivating. for all of you who is looking for a good movie with little war and great relationship this is the one to watch for. and funny enough I accidentally discover this one when I bought the ticket to this movie wrongly in a cineplex like 5 years ago when there's a European movie fest going on and I waas trying to get tickets for a summer blockbuster haha. though not what i expected to watch but it still offers great entertainment and I was thinking I'm gonna watch Independance day haha. so you can imagine the surprise i have haha.



On the music side, the American this year besides voting for a New President, this month on you are given another chance to vote for the new American Idol. Yup the Hot and Spicy New 24 have been chosen this evening. and My bet is on David Archuleta. this kid just simply spell-binding. wait til you hear his singing voice after you heard him speak. you'd never guess the sound coming out of that "paralyzed" vocal cord. you'd be paralyzed by it. David I'm betting on a one mill bet off here don't fail me. Or I'll come for you...... haha just kidding. if only i have one mill haha. anyway good luck to all the contestant and for the Anti-------- being out there. no more Sanjaya, it is funny for a few weeks but after that there's nothing fun in screwing others better chances to shine. I dun like some of the Idol element as well but there's no good out fo crushing some deserving ppl's dreams. what fun is there? oh I'm not saying he's handsome, I'm saying he's a great singer. no harm being cute. Look at Nick Jonas of the Jonas Bothers.

New Weekend and a happy Lunar New Year to All Chinese Around the World

The other day I just have a look at the new Elizabeth Installation "The Golden Age" and it's a fine great deal. though less struggle than the first installment (which makes Cate Blanchett my muse, the British always have an itch on great indie movie).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Spoiler Ahead~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~








this time there's the spanish war wich the virgin Queen didn't even have to fight to win. of course there is the pirate's duke and her hand maiden. so all and all, it's an epic. and Cate is a gem to look at again....... the acting is simply captivating.



For those movie buff looking for action this is not the drama for you. it is more shaspearean stage show than the one and only Romeo and Juliet actian drama kind. but these kind of movie simply demonstrate dramatic movie influences perfectly tru and tru.



of course if you have watched the TV version of Elizabeth you'll have a bold time with this one. they are both of the same period just different interpretation. It is just as intelligence and well presented as "The Queen" 2 years before.

And now here comes the music review of the week. I've just got tru Blake Lewis of the American Idol Fame last year. the Album is called "Audio Day Dream". just as the Title suggested, you'll take the best trip of your life.


for all Jamiroquai Lover out there that's looking for a younger alternative with an incling of American touch on the mix. he is the guy and this is the album to get to. the Mix and style is a great deal fresher than the J man. minus the 8th track ballad. most of the songs are great discoteque and you can shake you botty off with the first single out Break Anotha. He is fresh, sweet, the sound is smoother and sometimes splash a bit of 54 studio-ish touches. a bit of house and grind-house beatboxing. it is the next new sound with a bit of old style. so enjoy you teens this is your ticket to the disco before the legal age. oh just one comment, the Ballad is a great touch as well. nothing's wrong with it. the Funk is working the Smooth Man

As for those that's looking for a more Corine Bailey Ray Style singer with a male voice.



you can take a look at this guy. Jamie Scott and The Town. He have the same voice as Blake Lewis yet their style is totally on another Hemisphere. Jamie's style are more British-Scottish country style than anything Discoteque. the most disco style he's done you'll have seen or heard that sound on "Step Up" the hit Dance movie of 2006.

both front man likes their Falseto so much they are more seamlessly incorporated into each sound. Jamie took the James Blunt Style and more British-like than american. so it's kinda hard to predict the possibility of him capturing the heart of the American here. but I'm sure with the success of the other Artist he's got a great chance with the world population, with just enough promotion. (when you look at it. what the US of A called unique is kinda Alienating themselves from the rest of the world sometimes.)
