Movie night : Changeling is fabulous





The other weekend I was at home and got bored so I decided to go to the movies before my poker date with some of my old friends. So without any planning I got to the cinema and look at the screen and decide to avoid all the hot seated movie. And got myself a ticket that almost no one want to watch.

Changeling, the Cinema is showing some of the most current OSCAR nominated movies.

I don’t know about Angelina Jolie performance if you ask me. It is as good as any of Clint Eastwood movie as it is all the time. It is dated and character driven.

The story first begins with the bonding of the mother and the child. Then the mother hard working result in the missing of the child. There’s the fight to search for the son at first. Then the story advance into the corruption and incompetent of the police that result in misidentifying the missing child and frame the mother into admitting the wrong child as her own son. By which now the forces are doing all they can to cover the mistake and keep pushing the mother and in the end locking her up into an asylum to avoid her becoming the whistle blower.

Like any Clint Eastwood story, there’s always a twist in the end. Finally another case is link to the child. And serial killer that pick up kids and killed them in his barn. And dutiful policeman in the end broke the news and consequentially lead to the clue of the demise of the child.

When the killer goes on trial and the police department is taken into questioning and convicted and removed from their position, the crowd actually clapped in the cinema.

Of course even with the killer gone and the unfortunate or maybe fortunate closure to the case, the mother still wouldn’t give up the search for her son…… there’s still another twist in the end that I think should remain unsaid. Because this is what Mr Eastwood does best with his films. The style maybe old but it works. It makes you just want the story to go on. And see what happens next.

BAFTA Award 2009! it's a marvelous night for the British and a little film about an underdog





















While Sunday night marks the Biggest night in Music in the USA, Across the Atlantic it is the biggest night in movies for the British 8 hours earlier.
The BAFTA award for 2009 is on it’s way. And Slumdog Millionaire again took home the ultimate Best Film price further fortified it’s stature as the Best film in OSCAR.
Outstanding British Film as expected is given to Man on Wire.
The New Film worker awards, the Carl Foreman Award is given to Steve McQueen – Director and Writer for Hunger.
Of course Danny Boyle once more take home the Best Director award, and the Best original is given to Martin McDonagh of In Bruges and Adapted Screenplay for Slumdog.
Leading Actor award goes to Mickey Rourke for Wrestler and Kate Winslet take home Best Actress with The Readers. There’s probably no doubt in everyone’s mind that Mickey Rourke and Kate will go on to take home the OSCAR this Feb 22 night.
As for the supporting role Heath Ledger again take home for the Actor award with the Dark Knight which is no surprise there and estimated the late actor will take home the OSCAR too and Penelope Crus with Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
Slumdog nearly took home all of the technical award it is nominated for except losing out on Production Design to Benjamin Button, which is not surprising that most of the production for Slumdog take place in actual setting around Mumbai and Benjamin is a older time pieces that require more background creation. All together Slumdog take home 7 awards which include Sound, Editing, Music and Cinematography. Followed by Benjamin Button with 3 Technical Award including Special Visual Effects and Make Up awards. The Costume Design award goes to the Victorian design of The Duchess.
Noel Clarke is given the Orange Rising star award and Wall-E hit home with Animation.
As the BAFTA ended, most of the members are pretty certain that some of the awards are going to go for in the OSCAR. We’ll see if the prediction will be the same. This is truly a big year for independence movies. With Twilight taking the top spot on Ticket sales and Slumdog Millionaire becoming the biggest Independence movie to take home almost all Best movie awards.
On the side of the BAFTA, Director Danny Boyle have taken home the Best Director award in the Directors Guild and Best Adapted Screenplay in the Screen Writer Guild award and the Ensemble taking home the Screen Actors Guild award. All the union most prestigious award have gone to Slumdog not to mention the Golden Globe as well.

Exclusive with the young talented Danny Rocco







This week we have the opportunity to sit down with one of the most talented young musician I’ve ever met online, Danny Rocco. He got the style, he got the sound and he definitely got the look. And with his talent he is totally in the league to rival the Jonas Brothers HAHA! So everyone let us introduce Danny Rocco, Check out his music at http://www.myspace.com/dannyrocco

Hi Danny, thank you for doing this interview with us, we really appreciate the opportunity.
Q: now let’s kick start this engine with an intro of who you really are? And where you are from and what get you into the music scene in the first place?
---I’m from Long Island, New York, and i started [playing music at an extremely young age. I began on the violin when I was in second grade, and pretty easily progressed to guitar, and eventually vocals. I also used to book a lot of shows around the area when i was about 14 or 15, and things kinda took their own form there.
Q: your songs sound fantastic, and you have an album “The Future is Now” out now, how would you describe it?
---my latest album is a compilation of recording that i re-recorded. the earliest of which, i wrote when i was about 16. Its a very nostalgic album, and focuses a lot on my high school years and my life as a teenager.
Q: You are in a band, how is it different compare to singing solo?
---my band Show Me Action is quite different. I love both; there’s a sense of intimacy I just don’t get out of playing with my band, and there’s similarly a sense of craziness that I never get to enjoy while performing solo. It’s also quite nice to play with the band have some of the vocal pressure off for once haha.
Q: where do you get your inspiration when you are writing songs?
---inspiration is everywhere, and I never usually "get it:" it finds me.
Q: You did a couple of shows before, would there be more in the future?
---I’m 100% planning a full U.S tour for this summer.
Q: how is performing like compare to writing and singing in the studio?
---performing is the reason why you write and sing in the studio. its the chance to show everyone in person exactly what you do and how you do it.
Q: now one of the most interested questions from our reader is “Are you single?”, and what kind of girls interest you?
---yes, I am single. But I am an equal opportunity employer, so I never pin point an exact "type." haha, but great question.
Q: your songs are pretty together, how long does it take to really tune yourself into writing with all the instruments into one piece of work? Is it hard?
---never "hard," per say, but always different. some songs i can write and finish in a few hours, and others will take weeks, maybe even months to fully come together.
Q: now if anyone wish to contact you for a show, who and where should they call?
---call me, or my record label "Lobster/Oort Records." You can e-mail me at Rocky88@aol.com any time.
Q: who is you inspiration musically?
---Muse, Taking back Sunday, Brand new, Alaline trio, Avett brothers, Straylight run, Fall Out Boys, My Chemical Romance, just to name a few of very very very many.
Q: are there any artist or producer that you’d like to work with?
---would love to work with any of the bands I mentioned above.
Q: will we be expecting any new music soon or touring?
---touring for the summer, and new music is all around me every day - its just a matter of when i get around to recording it...
Q: now before we leave, would you like to say anything to all your fans out there?
---thanks for all your support, and make sure you come hang out at a show some time soon!

Thanks again for sitting down with us and answering our questions.
All the Best.

Welcome to the 2009 51st Grammy Awards!!!! Let's Party Guys


The Grammy is just over and it’s a fabulous night with a little bit of upset at the beginning. It’s not the big opening I thought it’s be, U2 is doing a great job but a one song opening is not the traditional opening they have. I guess Chris Brown and Rihanna is sitting out of the show at the last minute. (Because of an assault case, there’s no confirmation why Chris is in Custody and if the victim is Rihanna)
Moving on, the first award given away on the live telecast is presented by the incredible Whitney Houston. The Best R&B Album is received by another incredible woman in the music, the incomparable Miss Jennifer Hudson who later went on stage and perform one of the most amazing performance of the show. There, if you don’t believe the AI drop-out will be come a great artist….. well with a Grammy, and Oscar to proof it she is a star in her own right and non other African-American women have even walk her golden Pavement for a long long time.
Al Green and Boys II Men and Keith Urban and Justin Timberlake make the first crossover collaboration of the soul, and then followed by Coldplay with a Brief appearance by the Boss, Jay Z.
Carrie Underwood did her thing later and then the award for country Dou or a Group goes to Sugarland…. Finally someone besides Rascal Flatts is receiving the award and Sugarland is the most deserving to take over. And then Songs of the Year of course is given to Coldplay for Viva La Vida
After that Kid Rock did his country and rock thing, and followed by the youngest collaboration of the community Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift, which marks presentation the Best Vocal Collaboration to Allison Krauss and Robert Plant, the legendary twosome break down every hot seat in the house and the most popular to win crowd from Coldplay to Leona Lewis to the new comer Adele and Ne-Yo or even Lil Wayne and go on winning 3 more awards including Album of the Year and Record of the Year.
Next up one of the surprise and further cemented the influence of the most popular band and youngest band on the planet now, Jonas Brothers to perform with the legendary Stevie Wonder, and to get Stevie to sing their songs is simply the best compliment for the Jo Bros.
Blink 182 regroup on stage and presented the Rock Album award to Coldplay, who admitted they are far from a real rock band, they are like the soft crème of rock.
and that is follows by an intro by the late late night show host to the most controversial and PG performance of the night, Katy Perry performing her infamous single “I Kiss a Girl”.
Then that is followed by one of the greatest cross country collaboration of the century, Kanye West and Estelle, in their very 80’s look performed their “American Boy”. That later New Artist of the year is presented to everyone surprises…… Adele, beating such favorite like Jonas Brothers and Duffy. A disappointment for me personally is that Jason Mraz who I think is one of the artist of the year have gone home empty handed.
More performance by Kenny Chesney next. A very very Pregger M.I.A. (Due today) perform with the ultimate Rat/Rap Pack of our time, Jay Z, Lil Wayne, T. I. and Kanye West, this once in a lifetime performance you’ll not see anywhere else.
Paul McCartney is on stage to perform his classics with Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters on Drum without the sound blocking Glass which created one of the most classic rock sound performances of the night you can hear the Drum taking in on every mic on stage it’s incredible.
After Jack Black presented with his father-in-law to John Mayer on Best Male Pop Vocal, 2 winner of the night, Adele and Sugarland perform together. Gwyneth Paltrow introduces another British Rockband performance on stage, Radiohead which I think took the best out of the USC Marching Band – the Trojans on stage, they did splendidly.
The T.I. and Justin Timberlake goes on stage again to perform and follow by one of the surprises of the night, Jamie Foxx, Smokey Robbinson, Neyo and the remaining member of the unbeatable Four Tops – Abdul “Duke” Fakir for one of the most classical Jazz moment of the night. Then follow by another legend, Neil Diamond. Which is then follow by more legendary collaborations, from Keith Urban, John Meyer with King of Blues, B.B. King. Then followed by Lil Wayne with Allan Tusson and Robin Thicke performance. Best Rap was presented to Lil Wayne after that of course. which is then followed by the last nominee’s performance of the night, Allison Krauss and Robert Plants perform their winning album’s songs and go own winning the last awards of the night for Best Album presented by Green Day. And the show is closed by Stevie Wonder performing his classics.
On the earlier award presentation before the live telecast, Duffy is the winner for best Pop Vocal Album and Adele is the Best Female Pop Vocal, Eagles won for Best Pop instrumental, Deft Punk beat our lady Gaga on Best Dance Recording and Album, Natalie Cole won earlier for traditional Pop Vocal or our boy, Josh Groban, and John Mayer surprisingly win Solo Rock Vocal with Gravity, and Kings of Leon deservingly take home Rock by Duo or Group over all the great and hot shot like Coldplay, Eagles, and Radiohead. Metallica most suitably take home the best Metal Performance, again! Yet another surprise on the rock side, Bruce Springsteen take home Best Rock Song! I mean are there no more space for real Hard Rockin anymore?!!! Alicia Keys take home Best R&B female, Ne-Yo take home Best Male Vocal and Best R&B Song, and Al Green take on Best Vocal R&B By Duo or Group with John Legend and traditional R&B Vocal Performance with Anthony Hamilton.
Mary J. Blige did take home one for Contemporary R&B Album with Growing Pains and the Rap Pack take in Best Rap/Sung Collabo.
That’s All Be well everyone. Tune in for the Oscar in 2 weeks.

BAFTA, Grammy, State of the Union Address!!!

President Obama is gearing up to give his first State of the Union Speech (it won’t be a State of The Union Address because his first State of the Union Address will be on 2010 as this is his first year in office).
The BAFTA is going on now and the Grammy will be coming in less than 8 hours.

Everything is coming along very quickly this time.

51st Grammy Music Biggest night will be on air this Sunday night

The biggest night for Music is coming this Sunday, this year’s Grammy is packed with star power this year. There’s simply not enough place for all the artists that comes about this year.
We’ll be seeing Jonas Brothers performing, so will some of the biggest name there is, Chris Brown? Rihanna? Beyonce I’m pretty sure will have one leg on the show, and Leona Lewis I’m sure Simon won’t let the chance goes by to let his biggest pet protégé to go on stage on one of the world biggest music show. Surely the usual suspect Coldplay will perform. Probably there will be another Paul McCartney performance with some surprise like with Lil Wayne or Kid Rock.
I sure hope that Jennifer Hudson, Jordin Sparks and Duffy and Adele will go on too. I’m very sure I’m in the range to say that Alicia Keys is performing too. oh! Who could forget TI.
Of course 2 rating power house of teen rating Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift will team up for a performance.
As for the nominees: Drum roll please!!!
The largest awards there is the British dominating the Record of the Year where we might see Simon Cowell going on stage for a speech for Leona Lewis’ Bleeding Love, of course there’s Adele’s Chasing Pavement, and Coldplay’s Viva La Vida and on the American side the online contender is the collaboration between the blue-grass Alison Krauss and Robert Plant.
As for the Album of the year we see the most amazing mix of musician in the industry competing, and the condition is totally opposite from record of the year where the American dominated the category from the British Coldplay’s Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends versus, the representative from rap Lil Wayne’s The Carter III, R&B singer/songwriter/producer Ne-Yo’s Year of The Gentleman and Raising Sand from Robert Plant & Allison Kruass that represent the grass root of American music culture. Another band that make it into the cut is another British band Radiohead’s In Rainbows
Coldplay is the only band that got into the top 3 category of the show, Song of the Year category we see them come in with Viva La Vida again, fighting of a slew of new comer to the category, Jason Mraz finally got the recognition with his vastly contagious I’m Yours, Estelle with Kanye West help got the nod for American Boy, Adele reach the top by Chasing Pavements and our fave girl Sara Bareilles got in with Love Song.
One category that I’m sure will get the most interest on the night is the New Artist category, because it’s packed with teen angst fan of Jonas Brothers, the teen idol is going against all the big adult, our lovable classic, Duffy and classic Adele, the country Lady Antebellum and R&B Jasmine Sullivan, the bands against the ladies. My bet is on Jonas Brothers… HAHA!!
There’s all together 101 awards and most of them will not be receiving the award on stage, some that’s worth a mention is we see all our favorite female singing on Best Female pop category, from Adele to Sara, to Duffy to Leona and Katy Perry and Pink. It’s totally attractive ensemble for the category and they all deserve it, old mixes with the new. And music ranging from pop-rock-R&B
As for the male category we have 2 of the greatest male singer of our time, Jason Mraz dueling out with John Mayer, and the long time usual like Paul McCartney and James Taylor with R&B great Ne-Yo, and the one rocker in the house Kid Rock. (regardless how notorious Kid is he make one hell of a great music really.)
On the group & Duo for pop we see Coldplay again with Gnarls Barkley going against the great father band of them all, Eagles, and the best new band of our time, Maroon 5 and OneRepublic.
Lady Gaga and Colby O’Donis is going against Rihanna and Daft Punk on the Dance Category, and some of the most amazing collaboration make it into the pop category, from JT and Madonna’s 4 minutes to Jordin Sparks and Chris Brown’s No Air, Alicia Keys and John Mayer’s Lesson Learned and Rihanna & Maroon 5’s If I Never See Your Face Again, the most unlikely black horse of the category will Robert Plant & Allison Krauss’s Rich Woman, but Grammy’s always packed with surprises, the virtually unknown to teen collaboration that dominated the sales this year might get a nod from all the academy’s colleagues.

Remember to tune in on Feb 8 2009 8pm

AI Wednesday Week 4: Top 75


Well, Wednesday episode marks the cut of another 29 hopefuls for AI on Hollywood week. Among my favorites for the finals, Austin Sesneros and David Osmond was cut. I must be honest that Bikini Girl – Katrina Darrell is off the stage too, because it is pretty obvious she is kept for the entertainment before the live show start. I just wonder if the rumored list from votefortheworst .com could be really the official list leak of the top 36. Cos it’d be a big hurt if the only one I’ve heard is good remaining is just Adam Lambart and Lil Round. I’m sure the 36 have some that is great talent too. Just that the show haven’t shown enough of them.




It is obvious that the show is revolving around how many contestants showing emotion than the group performance this episode. but in fact there's just too many performance to show anyway.


I must say that AI editor should have to step it up a little bit more this season if they wish the rating to go up. because until now. there's been a lot of talk but not much attraction, like great performance that the judges keep talking about. it's better to show the performance than the reaction the portion is totally over scale to the left wing this time. Audience is just not seeing any much talent as what the judges say on TV.


We’ll see next week. Top 36 going to the live show will be announce next week.



American Idol 4th Week, Hollywood week 1st round, 104 remaining

It’s the first round for Hollywood on American Idol and 104 contestant s are through for the time being.
Tomorrow will be the hardest and most unpredictable result for those contestants that’s hanging in the balance.
WE see some of the favorites like Adam Lambert, Lil Round, Danny Gokey, David Osmond and Both Austin Sisneros and Michael Castro got through, Adam Lambert, Austin Sisneros and Michael Castro is not feature on this week’s first episode. Let’s hope that the group will show how good the contestants really is. But group of 4 still means there’s 24-26 group to be showcase. Which means the 34 and 24 will be out really soon.
It is not a question about fairness really in these competition. The producer want ratings, so drastic or “out there” attitude might get you some where. But the general public voting is another question. Some contestants getting through with other gimmick might not stand a chance if they got through to 24. If there are more people that vote for the best singer rather than the worst.
For those that got booted, keep doing it. Yes, it’s unfair to come down to this one song. But face it, the reality is every moment of our lives is based on one decision or one choice. Wrong move, then you are bound to have bad things throw your way. Some lucky one’s got a second chance, the unlucky one you just have to accept it and start moving on.
All the best

Movies of the Week, Inkheart, Bride Wars and Underworld 3





































The fantasy Inkheart is a movie that I think many of us should watch. It is not as lavishly glamorous as Lord of the Rings nor as Angst as Twilight. Yet it is the God mother of all past fantasy. To imagine that some people could read just from the books and all the being in the book will appear for real.
Anyway the first installment of the trilogy have been created for the screen, yet from the way the story end. It’s most likely be the only installment that will come out of the trilogy, such a shame really to be able to watch Brendan Fraser and Dame Helen Mirren in the same movie for the first time and it’s just ended. And to be able to add in Paul Bettany, Andy Serkis in the mix with some of the most talented young actor, Eliza Bennett and Rafi Gavron. The short appearance of Jennifer Connelly is a bit of a regrets though. Anyway the movie ended so abruptly it felt a bit out of place. It si still one of the best movies for my whole family to enjoy this Chinese New Year though.
The other day I was on my cable and I watch again a 2006 movie by Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Boyd, which is a natural and intriguing story about one of the best cyclist of our time. Graeme Obree. The Flying Scotsman tell the tale of the Champion Cyclist from the time he broke the one-hour record on his revolutionary self-design cycle with a sitting position that’s so important in Cycling history. And believe it or not it’s done from scrap metal and washing machine parts. But the most amazing back story of the movie is Obree struggles with depression, which is close to my hear t and I think that all people that is facing any kind of depression or mental obsession should grab a look. There is a place in the world for us. We just have to hold it together and there’s definitely a way through life without the condition. We can overcome it as long as we don’t give in to the emotion.
After I came back from my holiday, it’s back to the usual timing. Another 2 more movies for me. Underworld 3 Rise of the Lycan, there’s no Kate Beckinsale and Scott Speedman to the previous story, the one remain are the villain. The heroin change to the first Lycan that can control his transformation Lucian. It is the prequel to the underworld story, the love story between the first merge of the Vampire and Lycan (Warewolf). Billy Nighty is back so is Steven Macintosh of course these are the 2 most unpopular character in the series. Yet the story of Lucian and Sonja are good enough to replace them as the main storyline and Michael Sheen (Lucian) and Rhona Mitra (Sonja) of Skinwalker turn from a warewolves wife to a Vampire who is a warewolf’s lover….. logical HAHA! Anyway the performance is good, the setting is perfect and the fighting is totally savage. (who’d have thought that Michael can look so good in this movie!? Coming from Frost/Nixon, the David Frost baring it all…..HAHA! Just kidding. He does look really fit in the movie.)
And what would a holiday be without the usual comedy. I skip 4 Christmases cos it’s already over, and straight to the wedding bliss of Bride Wars. It is true how every woman figure they are going to be great when they have a beautiful wedding. Even fighting with your best friend?! Well, if you are going to lose yourself and your friend in the process then I think you should think again about why are you having the wedding? I love the comedy, the cat fight, the scamming and Anne and Kate are both best actresses of our time and to have both in comedy is a totally double jeopardy. Anyhow, it is a life lesson for the girls that are really getting married. If your husband to be can’t stand the 2 months before you get married how well you think they are gonna be when you are both together? But on the other hand there are also the forgiveness and the lovely compromises. There’s just no telling how well people will be when they are together, regardless how life turns or how other view us, the one person that’s with us will have to be the one that makes it all doesn’t matter. Of course it is always great to see Brian Greenberg and Chris Pratt on the Big Screen.

AI is off to Hollywood after 3 weeks.




I’m not always a fan for the AI preliminary audition. Because I thought it’s unnecessary for the humiliation. Of course I like the good ones. But this year the show is showing a lot less of them. I can only mark Michael Castro on the first week. The 2nd week there’s hardly anyone exciting. And for the 3rd week it’s better, because there’s a 2 city show. ?I can pick out Austin Sisneros and a Puerto Rican girl.
But there’s far less surprise as last years, and there’s even less girls impressive as it is. I guess the spectacle that Fantasia or Jordin created in their own season is far less likely.
But who knows.
As for the possible of Michael or Austin going through Hollywood week, from an online survey, Michael is more popular at this point, but his mySpace page is online at this moment. Usually top 24 contestants have their MySpace or online community pages blocked or closed temporary. There’s still no sign of Austin Sisneros’s MySpace page, could this be a tell tale sign?
Anyway, who win who lose, every year there’s only one winner in the end and over 30 thousand people not get through on the first run. As I always suggest, open up, record your voice in with your pc and play it to yourself. Then you’ll get a rating from 1-10 how good you are. If you love it even through bad recording, you are a great singer, if you think you need some help, but not tone deaf then you still need some work on it. But if you are either screaming or plain flat then it means the drop out is a real drop out. For those in the range of 5-10 you can still have hope and try. But if you are below that, just face the truth and just move on. It is a waste of time and who knows you might be better at other things. Trust me, look is not a big deal when you got the voice, check out Paul Potts and you’ll know what I mean. Be truthful to yourself and work hard from there.
And please don’t be a sore loser, there’s millions of rejection and millions of hopeful out there. Rejection and disappointment is part of life. We can either be defeated and angry by it or we can rise above it and be better because of it. Trust me when I say some of the best musicians are not at all possible in an AI competition. Jonas Brothers, and Hanson, and Chris Brown, they all may have no chance if they get into the competition, but they are fantastic musicians. Sometimes all we need is competition, and sometimes confidence is all we need. Use those emotions that is good for you and just drop and forget about all the bad one, the worries, the guilt, the inferiority, just go with your gut instinct.
It’s grilling 18 months ordeal that you have to endure. It is a competition, a dream maker, but not the only way to go. To have master the talent to sing every week, and doing promo and practice and rehearsal and prepare for special show. And then having to face the criticism from the judge and the whole world is a very very tough thing to do.
I wish all the best to all the contestant. May the best win and shine in the coming weeks.
