Muse

July 31, 2008

^ Michael Caine! I think in The Prestige he helped Hugh Jackman's character more than he did with Christian's though. But gossh, I still remember at the end of the movie, I felt like my brain was totally fried. If you want a good mindfuck, watch The Prestige. Lol.

Anyway too lazy to MQ at the moment, but yeah my cousins noticed Edison's 5 seconds of fame - I've been told that he originally has a bit more screen time though, but sadly after that sex scandal, he has been cut short to a mere 5 seconds! Poor thing.

Morgan Freeman didn't quit, I believe. He would only leave if that sonar thing continued to be in Wayne Enterprise.

Chirs Nolan says that it's too early to see whether there would be a 3rd movie. If there is though, the same old cast will definitely be in it. Therefore, Christian-oh-so-fucking-hot Bale will no doubt be in the third movie! (Here's hoping there are no scheduling conflicts with the Terminator movies in the near future!) I think it's difficult for Nolan to create a whole new script without really getting the Joker invovled since he left the options for the Joker relatively open at the end of TDK. But we'll see...

Right now, I'm looking forward to the release of Public Enemies. Johnny Depp ANNDDD Christian Bale in the same movie! :eek: :happy: Plus, David Wenham of Faramir (LOTR) fame will also be playing a part in that movie. Goooshh I'm not sure if my ovaries can take this!

Eeeek, I wish I could've made it for that Chelsea match A friend that went to Pavilion earlier that day said he could hardly see anything at all. Only Michael Ballack's hair. Lol, apparently it was packkked and the Adidas signing session was only meant for Chelsea Malaysia FC. Not open to the public!

Baaaahhh, one assignment and one presentation due in a few hours. After that... a much needed break away from reality and the real world. Can't wait for Singfest!!

July 28, 2008

OH YEAH I FORGOT ABOUT THAT SHOW! I only watched a small part of it on HBO/Cinemax/Star Movies last time. i watched the part where he professed his love to Ryder.. i was like "awww thats so sweet!" and then she go reject him pulak

I shall go download that show

Lol yeaah, but I love how the two of them had a ... (almost) platonic girl/guy friendship. Didn't like that Teddy ended up marrying Jo's little sister though!

haha i love how distracting my avvy is

I can totally imagine Christian saying this in a serious tone, "My name is Christian Debbie. What's your name?" :LOL:

lol if i have transport to KLIA, i actually wouldnt mind! shall we have a muser meet up?

Wow all this talk about Paul is making me want to listen to him too! when is he on? i wanna listen to him! aha.

EDIT:

OMG! the person who uploaded that video! debfong! thats my friend! ahhaahah such a small world.

There's always the KLIA transit - albeit a little pricey! I won't be able to make it to the airport though for Jared Leto. I have to pack for Singfest..!

His show times always vary... but usually it should be between 12 midnight to 3am :]

Small world indeed! I saw deb at first and i thought it might be you lol. How did your friend enjoy the concert though?

Lol.... I never dared to call him at all. So embarrased. Even sometimes for sms, I'm wondering should I sms to paul or not Haha.... Yeah... I remember he always support and talks about liverpool and even more especially when there is a match between liverpool and other teams going on. LOL

Awww.... ya la. What to do I'm giving back the convo gaun monday morning. Which means today =( I don't think we can meet.... again cause by the time you read this, it's most prbably has pass already =((((( Such a waste la...

You are a Chelsea fan... Are you going to watch the friendly match between chelsea and malaysian team?

Next time if I do send a text out to Paul, I'll give you a shoutout?

Aiiii...missed again! You're not coming back to Setapak again anytime soon? Sigh, I wonder when then...

Chelsea will be at the Adidas outlet @ Pavilion, 5pm today! Also, I believe they're staying at Palace of the Golden Horses. Unfortunately, nooo i won't be able to squeeze time for the match or to stalk them at the hotel I'm currently only taking comfort in the fact that I've already watched them play last time back in ... 2004? They played against Newcastle then in Bukit Jalil :happy: Lampard, Terry, Bridge, Gudjohnsen etc - they were all so young then heh

July 27, 2008

I do love him too. I thought I was the only one who knows about him cause hardly any of my friends know about Radio 4 or trax fm =( Yes!!! I know what you mean. I can totally don't change any channel for the 3 hours because his song selections are really good. It has a whole variety of the old and also new and current ones I did do request before and my dedication has been cut short because I put too many names there

Aww... Too bad he is only on for 3 days in a week It will be totally awesome if he is on every night! My mood is definitely better and I feel more awake to study when I listen to him!! Haha... I do remember that pharse he always use.... Study, study, study... Don't give up and if you can't sleep don't sleep LOL!

Haha.... Yes! I love lostprophet rooftop because of him! It is like so refrshing when you hear all those songs and Muse one as well I dunno but I find his voice is okay. Just need to turn on the radio a bit louder to hear what he say Hehe....

Now I'm totally curious about you. Aihhh.... Too bad we didn't manage to meet up on last tuesday I do hope he stay on for years and years to come

I've never called Paul before though, although all my other friends who listen to him has. Have you? I would actually love to talk to him but ehh.. kinda shy la lol. So usually I'd only send him a text msg and request for Switchfoot if he has already played Muse XD

LOL If you can't sleep, don't sleep! He would also constantly say, "Liverpool ROCKKSSS" which i would sometimes roll my eyes to (Chelsea fan here see ) lol. But yeah, he's altogether a very friendly DJ I should say!

Yeaaahh sucks about last Tuesdaay Would've been nice to meet you! Did you return your robes on convocation day? Otherwise we can perhaps meet up when you return them this week and gush over how crazy for the past two years we were in college, we never knew there would be another Muser just an arm's length away!

Err.... Do you know their time of their arrival?

Chelsea arrived in KL today from Macau.. Heh. As for Jared Leto... I'll try to dig out for information but I can't be sure if I'll be able to get any. I'm guessing he should arrive on a Friday (or possibly Thursday to pre-film the MAA ads?) , but don't know he'll be flying in from where. 30s to Mars aren't on tour at the moment :-/

July 27, 2008

:LOL:Yah, trax fm listeners does love Muse. especially with paul the cruiser(midnight and abover) the listeners love to request for Muse. I heard before Sing for absolution, KOC, Starlight, Supermassive Black Hole, Time is running out and Hysteria on trax fm :D:happy:

OMG PAUL LOVEE. Joelyn you totally rock for listening to him! I have a 5 year love-hate relationship with paul. :LOL: First of all, I've been listening to him since pulling all-nighters back in my PMR days! His show is the only radio show that I would listen to 3 hours consecutively without the need to change the channel too frequently. Apart from that, he is super nice! Seriously back in those days, he would answer calls and it would be played on air. The crazy requests and stupid people that he has to deal with ... he manages to deal with them even without showing a single strain of irritation! And how can you not be motivated when he says, "Study study study, don't give up!" at 2:25 in the morning? Lol also, he would constantly give football updates and that is the one thing I love especially when I'm away from home!

Let's just say everytime I hear Paul on early in the wee hours of the morning, my day is instantly better already. I think the best part of listening to Paul is that he loves Muse too and sometimes, there's nothing better than singing out loud to LostProphets' Rooftops when he plays it at 1:30 in the morning.

Wait a minute, this isn't a love-hate relationship.. Lol.

I've made a number of my friends listen to him as well to help keep them up awake whlie studying. They say that they love his music selections, but they can't quite stand his .... retarded voice Owell, Paul definitely needs a raise though, that's for sure! I hope he stays on for a long time to come <3

-----------------

Yayy, glad you've finally watched TDK :] I think people didn't like Katie Holmes mainly because ... she hooked up with Tom Cruise right about that time when Batman Begins was released. A lot of people say it was merely a media gimmick of sorts.. I wasn't sure what it was, but all I know is that... Christian and Katie didn't seem to ... connect too much in the movie lol. But that could be due to Christian not exactly having a lot of chemistry with his other female leads actually. The only possible match I could think of now would be Winona Ryder & Bale in Little Women. Aww, they were so cute in that movie!

PS: Deb, that avy is so distracting! XD <3

---------------

They played that HAARP music special thing again on 8tv!

---------------

.

Safe to say my friend didn't get to throw eggs at him yesterday night. Lol. I didn't go in the end because I was running around Bangsar, Bukit Bintang, Dang Wangi, Mid Valley etc earlier that day so I stayed home at night. Only to find out that Lifehouse played SEVENTEEN songs in their gig at Manila. *sob* (LH would usually only play about 15 songs or less in a setlist due to Jason's strain of health problems...pneumonia etc) but they made an exception in the Philippines since they were extremely well received there!

Sigh. So any of you guys heading to the airport to greet Mr Jared Leto this week?

July 24, 2008

LOONNG post ahead! (mostly Batman/Chrstian Bale related..lol sorry for that!)

Yeah I wanna see Daughtry!
OH NOEZ PLEASE DON'T THROW EGGS AT HIM!

eh? its a proper gig at OU? wtf? which part of OU? i thought it was like.. part of some festival thingie thingie. omg dont throw eggs! haha. thats horrible.

Throw eggs?!!!

Lol, I'll tryy to refrain my friend from throwing eggs... But he's already asking me to boil these eggs. "Make it hard boiled eggs, Liz. That way it'll definitely hurt more! Maybe he can go lock himself in the trailer write a song about it after that." :LOL: I seriously don't know what my friend has against him...

I'm not sure if it's a proper gig Deb. But I understand that Sony Ericsson will be having a Traffic Jam Party of sorts that will feature Daughtry. It will be held in the car park area of OU this Saturday. I think you'll need invites for the gig though. I can't be bothered to look out for more information regarding this now.. Heh, but I think if you google 'traffic jam party daughtry' there might be something?

------------------------

and speaking of football, anyone going to malaysia vs chelsea game? or was it last saturday?

It'll be on the 29th of July. Next Tuesday. I WANT TO GOOOOO. Summore now they say Lampard's confirmed to join the Asian promo tour. But I'll be freaking broke what with SingFest on the 2nd of August. Sigh... Maybe I'll just go look for them in the airport/hotels or something ;] After all, I've seen them play once before against Newcastle Let's hope I can find time for it though...

-----------------

Hello..

Sorry for unrelated subject...

Guilt-stricken,

Travis will perform from 10.30 - 11.45 pm on Saturday

Are u going to stay in S'pore ? If yes, where ?

Can I also join u & yr sis in S'pore to go together to the gig? (I'll be coming alone, I'm female)

I haven't bought the tickets though, soon..

Nut,

Still on?

Thanks !

Hullo! My sister and I will only be staying one night in Spore. We're taking the morning bus from KL on Saturday and we'll probably reach at about 12:30pm? We'll be spending Saturday night at her friend's place, I'm not sure where though. I'll ask her and get back to you?

Of course you can join me and my sis and we'll head together to the gig :] Although we'll only be around Fort Canning on Saturday. She wants to go shopping on Sunday *narrows eyes*. But I guess for her to join me in my Singapore trip is good enough. Heh. My sister just bought the tickets a few days back. Use your credit card (if you have any). I think you can get 10% off if you do!

------------------

its gonna be released here. i'm definitely sure about that.. i'm just not sure if the release date is gonna be the same as the rest of the world

I think it's the same. I saw a poster on the release date of Breaking Dawn in MPH (or was it Popular?) that day.

Speaking of vampires, after being influenced by my other friend that loves Edward Cullen, she managed to make me watch this anime called Vampire Knight. According to her, the basis of the story is a tiiinnyyy bit like Twilight so that certainly caught my attention. I decided to watch it eventhough I'm not too fond of ..animes. But anyway, hmmmm... there's a certain character in there that certainly reminds me of Edward. Heh.

-------------------

man i NEED to watch this movie again! i didnt concentrate much on Bruce Wayne himself because i was too fixated by The Joker. apparently Bruce Wayne was topless for a bit? i dont freakin remember! THIS IS WRONG! i ALWAYS notice topless guys! especially if they are as sexy as Christian Bale. sigh. shame on me.

that guy from prison break? who? michael schofield? i didnt know this!

oh, i HATE batman's stupid raspy sore-throat voice lah. i hate it so much. its so stupid. i wish he'd just shut up sometimes when he's talking in long sentences in that voice. bring back Bruce Wayne's real voice!

He was topless in two scenes! It's impossible to miss. Lol. The first part was when he was stitching himself (ouch) and when he took that fitting black shirt off, I remember wailing, "OMG please don't put another shirt back onnn!" Might be a little tooo loud though because the guy sitting in front of me cleared his throat hahaha. That was also the first scene that has Bruce Wayne in it! Seriously la, I don't think there's enough Bruce parts But oh well. I guess we've had plenty of that in the first movie dy. The second part would be the swimming trunks scene XD When he jumped into the sea/ocean, usually people would be distracted by his well-tonned body but ehhh I was actually grinning myself silly because ... he had this black strap thing around his hands while he swam towards the aircraft. Wet!Handporn! *DIES*

Agent Mahone! The guy that hunted and wanted Michael dead in season 2!

Haha, I found his voice really awkward too. But I guess it's part of him being Batman and not wanting to be recognized or whatever.. I'll forgive him for that.. :LOL: I like starring at his thinn lips in every Batman scene. lol okay, this is getting too much, huh?

Who did he play in Pochahontas? no freakin way!

Thomas! John Smith's friend. That tiny guy with brown hair. He was the one that shot Pocahontas' supposed husband but then John Smith took the blame for killing that guy and told Thomas to run!

go watch the movie again kak faz! i think i'm gonna watch it one more time.. hahaha. making it a total of 3 times. i just cant get enough of it la lol.
LOL HE LOOKS DAMN HOT IN THAT PICTURE RIGHT? when i saw it i was like "WAH. I HAVE TO POST THIS." his hair is just sooo yummy in that picture

hahahahha i normally never buy the Galaxie magazine, but i bought one last month i think, because an article with Ben Barnes was in it . i looooove Ben Barnes! he is sooo hot, and he looks really young too. i'm surprised he's like... 9 years older than me

Hehe, that's the spirit! I managed to get my friend to watch it more than one time too. Lol. Eeee. Thank youuu for that picture! I would post a pic spam right now but gahhh... busyy

Ben Barnes! XD I wish I could still watch that interview of him with Jay Leno though. I can't find it in youtube anymore! :[

Forgot was I was going to say, can only remember the Bale-love Thanks to u Faz, heheh.

He's amazing in everything that he's done. I've had a weird crush on him since I was a little girl and he was playing an English schoolchild lost in Shanghai(?) in the Spielberg war movie Empire of the Sun (his first role I think).

Eeee. I loved Empire of the Sun! I've watched it multiple times now and I still can't believe how good he was eventhough he was only 13 then! Yup, it was in Shanghai during WW2. He definitely pulled off playing an annoying kid alongside John Malkovich. Lol. I believe my first introduction to Bale was in Little Women. TEDDYY <3 Wahhh. The teenager in me then fell in love with him immediately. But it wasn't until I found out about Christian Bale/Ewan McGregor/Jonathan Rhys-Myers being in a movie together that I began being a (serious) Balehead!

mcavoy is mr tumnus rite? so yeah.. i agree with deb, he was pretty hairy in narnia haha.. i never really fancy him. but he does have a very sexy accent btw. lol..

James McAvoy! Have you guys watched Penelope? He acts opposite Christina Ricci. He's brilliantly gorgeous in it! Anyway, I liked him in Narnia actually. That may be due to the fact that I've always had a soft spot for Mr. Tumnus though. Heh. But in Wanted, waahh damn chun what with all those guns in his hands. (Lol, hands again..)

oh, on the topic of christian bale right...
what do you guys think about his arrest?

http://www.perezhilton.com/category/christian-bale/

I think it's absolutely far-fetched. All this negative press around him made me cringe and laugh at the same time, really. When you're bound to be that big Hollywood actor thing you'll definitely get sucked into the whole crazy gossip whirlwind. Seriously, have you seen how this guy professed his love to his wife and family?!

Bale's acceptance speech.

Totally made me go awwwwwww when he mentioned about his wife being his Wonder Woman! Oh and the nipples/batsuit thing :LOL:

Anyway, I have to say that I am not going to fully believe all these allegations made against him. I don't really buy that whole "Bale being absolutely depressed over Heath's death" thing. Sure I understand they were co-stars in two movies but I just never felt Bale beginning to quote "crack" unquote after Heath's departure. (Or maybe I'm just not a Heath Ledger fan in general...) I can't be 100% right on this but I felt Christian had more of a "friend/buddy" connection with Hugh Jackman (The Prestige!) compared to Heath... Hmm.

Also, the sudden influx of his daughter's pictures circulating the internet must be troubling for a person that hates the media revolving his family! For Christian's sake, I just hope this bowls over quickly and that he'll be able to get through with it. Hopefully he doesn't excuse himself from interviews again and disappear out of thin air like he usually did back when he went around promoting Steven Spielberg's Empire of the Sun! (then again he was only a young boy then. haha)

I think it's only the strain of promoting The Dark Knight as well portraying John Connor.. I trust that he would do the right thing to overcome this though!

July 20, 2008

ahh.. finally i can talk about The Dark Night. but am just tired and my brain is currently not functioning well. nevertheless the movie was bloody AWESOME!! even though i was like 15 minutes late coz i was so hungry and i just need to eat first.

why would batman be saving dent rather than the love of his life?? bleh.. so unromantic!

i agree about the kan cheong ness in the movie man. the music really sounds like a horror film tau. and the cinema where i was watching the movie is said to be haunted! so i was kinda scared esp when the three seats next to me were empty and we were at the back of the cinema. there were even times when i heard a man's voice laughing from those empty seats! i dunno.. maybe i was being paranoid, but that was a distraction. but OMG Bruce Wayne is the sexiest superhero ever to exist in the entire movie world! well, he wasn't a hero but a keeper of peace? is that what gordon called him? but in a nutshell, The movie was amazing. i just have to watch it again!

you're right, the chemistry between Rachel and Harvey was pretty bland. i felt a bit awkward for them whenever they both kissed. but apparently they're very very much in love with each other, so much that Rachel would choose Harvey over the oh-so-sexy Christian Bale. i bought that. haha.

okay i cant think of anything to write anymore. lol.

Hmmm, I think Rachel chose to marry Harvey because she knows Bruce will never stop being Batman. Poor Harvey, if Rachel lived - he would've married a Rachel that is still in love with Bruce! I'm curious as to who will play Batman's next love interest though - assuming there will be another sequel. Batgirl?

I'm glaaadd that they didn't dwell too long over Rachel's death though!

Faz, eeek! You have to have to watch The Dark Knight again! The first 5 minutes of the movie features one of the best bank robbery scenes! Plus, that guy from Prison Break's in it. Haha.

Batman saved Dent because THAT EVIL SICK BASTARD Joker switched up the locations of the place. All this while Batman thought he would be saving Rachel, but when he opened that warehouse door to find Dent you could actually see the reactions in his eyes (ooooh Christian Bale even manages to ooze out emotions through that Bat suit!). My heart ached for that man eventhough I know he's completely fictional. Lol. I don't blame you for going all fangirly at all!! But I believe... The Joker actually had a lot more screen time than Bruce Wayne himself! I mean, if you minus out all the Batman scenes... you find that Bruce's final scene is actually during that Lambo car accident scene!

Batman is not a hero. He is a keeper that watches over Gotham, a silent guardian. He is whatever Gotham needs him to be. He is The Dark Knight! Lol, okay maybe I need to watch this movie another 5 times or so to completely memorize the script. I've watched it ... 3 times now though XD

and what about his version of jerry macguire's "you complete me" line to batman? haha...that was hillarious.

Lol, I swear if Heath Ledger is still around and doing press conferences together with Christian Bale.. I don't think I would let that "Then you're gonna love me!" part die so easily too. Seriously, there were quite a number of Batman/Joker slashy moments :LOL: Unintentional, I know...But I just can't help thinking it over.

Sigh, I solemnly swear I will stop being a Bale-head and get back to work on my lousy ass(ignment)s.

P/S: Can you believe he used to voice a character in Pocahontas?! :eek: :happy:

PP/S: I'm sure by now you would've heard about the new Terminator movie that Christian Bale will star? They've recently released a teaser trailer to it ... and I gotta say, Christian Bale sounds extreeeeemely sexy in here! (As much as I am still cringing to the fact that Bale will be in the next Terminator movie...)

Click.

---------------------

Not tooo sure if this Twilight bit has been posted.. Buut this just made me go

----------------------

wow panic is like waaaay cheaper compared to Avril man. and they both are pretty much on the same standard when it comes to live music quality! apa ni. maybe i'll go for Panic instead. its like waaaaaaaaaaay cheaper. or maybe, dont go at all and save money and go shopping hahahaha

I'll probably do that. But then again I'll be broke anyway due to SingFest!

Speaking of concerts though - any of you interested with Daughtry playing at OU on the 26th of July? I may just show up and climb through the barriers (lol inspiration from a certain nut... *cough*) just to get myself occupied and not think about the Lifehouse gig that would be going on at the same time in the Philippines! I have a friend that hates Daughtry a lot (no offense, Daughtry fans..) and he's planning to crash the party as well.. just so he could throw eggs at him :LOL: I'm sure he's just kidding... I think.

July 17, 2008

Oh and speaking of the current affairs in Malaysia,

Dear police officers closing off roads headed towards the city center.

Road blocks are ... not necessary! It took me three hours to get to college today (stuck on the road for a looong time, eventually took the train). I cannot imagine how much worse it must've been for the people driving to work. Sure, I understand that you're preventing any ... unwanted riots that may or may not happen. Trust me though, causing massive traffic jams would only bring to an even more aggravated crowd that could be persistent to start a riot just to prevent you from having any break time at all.

Sigh.

July 17, 2008

I wrote this at about 4am this morning but then my internet got screwed over. Sigh.

----------------------

Hey guys, I'm gonna make this as spoiler-free as I can

We definitely need a dark knight in our city streets! (And Christian Bale too, please?!)

One of the best, most anticipated movie - ever. I have no qualms over the fact that this movie will definitely be worth whatever you're paying for in the theaters. I just came back from the midnight screening and I don't think I can ... fall asleep! So haunting and brilliant was the cast that you would feel very much absorbed into the whole storyline!

As much as I hate to say this, but I actually did find myself sympathizing The Joker a tiny bit more than I did for Batman. That's not a goood thing, seeing that I am usually oblivious to everything else when Mr Bale's hands are waving around... (Please do remember, while watching the movie, to check out his hands sliding around the wheel of his Lamborghini :LOL: ) Much respect to Heath Ledger though. Truly, he portrayed the Joker brilliantly. He definitely added an insane modern touch to his character. Christian too deserves praise because he maintained the awesome portrayal of Bruce Wayne again similar to the first movie - though he definitely seemed a little more intimidated in a few scenes. He can't possibly go wrong though (I'm probably biased haha).

But I need to watch this movie again. I don't think there were any major flaws at all in the movie. Perhaps there were tooo many going on in that 150 minutes and your brain starts to get a tiny bit weary, but that's exactly when Christopher Nolan, the brilliant director, snaps you right back to reality and doesn't insult your intelligence one bit - despite fucking up your brain like that! He's definitely good at that, what with movies like The Prestige and Memento.

<3

Let's just say I doubt I can think coherently in class in a few hours' time.

---------------------

Now that I've had a little bit of sleep and a long train ride to college, I figured I may actually still like the first movie better than this second one. To compare the both of it is actually unfair though because both movies had two different plots dwelling into completely opposite ... issues. On to comments with possible spoilers in them:

I didn't think the chemistry between Rachel and Harvey was ... as fiesty as I would've hoped it would be. What with both willing to die for the other etc.. I just didn't buy it. Now, if Rachel died because of say, trying to protect Bruce's identity as Batman though, that would be a completely different story. I would've cheered and admired her. Unfortunately, that didn't happen and Bruce still felt it was his responsibility to put her in that position. Three cheers to Alfred for burning her letter though!

Another issue I would like to address would be the suspense and kan cheong-ness that you would've felt when you watch the movie. Gosh, kan cheong sial la. I found myself biting my nails and seating at the edge of my seat. Even attempted to hit my cousin's arm who was sitting beside me because I felt I couldn't take it at one point. Every time The Joker comes on though (which is plentiful, really) you would kinda find yourself fidgeting uncomfortably in your seat - not at will. You might come to care for his character though eventually - not sure if that would be pity - but seriously he was actually kinda cute in a childish but twisted manner (Heath Ledger in drag!!). The Joker's preaching actually makes a lot of sense, what with how we shouldn't be governed by the rules that we set ourselves etc. There were plenty of awesome quotes in this whole movie. Alfred & Lucius (Michael Caine & Morgan Freeman) definitely played the lighter and humorous roles. Even the supporting cast is spot-on.

I'm sure I have more than that to add.. but my brain is currently dead at the moment, over the thought of Bruce Wayne's leather jacket and swimming trunks.Excuse me while I go rehydrate myself.

Sigh... I can't wait to re-watch this movie again!

July 5, 2008

Bus? Have u bought tix? I dont even know where to get them, have to research first. Or maybe u could help with a few pointers?

Who else is heading out from KL, angkat tangan?

*raises hand* I am! Going with my sister - if that works out. Currently we're observing the singapore exchange rate (it's currently at RM2.41 now), once it hits RM2.35 or something we're gonna get our SingFest tickets! :LOL:

There are a few comfortable coaches headed down to Singapore, among them are First Coach, Aeroline and this company called Nice. I'm looking at heading to SG on First Coach and coming back on Sunday (early) morning using Transnasional or something. It's better if we purchase our return bus tickets in Malaysia than in SG. The last time I travelled to SG I sat on Aeroline and the trip was pleasant, but it costs RM80 per trip.

"seorang guru dan timbalan pendakwa raya warga m'sia ditangkap menceroboh kawasan festival music di Singapura"

:LOL:

I think I'm serious (of going) :-p
Missing Travis/Coldplay combo in 2000 was not wise :-p

I'm going for Saturday only

Although it's cool if I can catch Jason Mraz also, but I can't

I have to go back on Sunday

Nope, not wise at all! Any idea what kind of a setlist would Travis play at a festival though? I'm hoping they'll play why does it always rain on me!

July 3, 2008

Lol omg you guys. Climbing over walls and everything. Make me sound like an idiot for actually paying the tickets :LOL:

Haha we totally climbed walls back in NS! I always end up as the last person to climb over the wall because I'm relatively tall (meaning I'll help everyone else across the wall) but I also end up getting stuck at the 2m wall because I suck. Haha. My trainer would have to come over and push me up. Lol, those were the days.

If we all do go for SingFest though, we should have a Musers meet up! I'm only taking the bus down to Singapore on Saturday itself however - so let's hope they don't put Travis as the first few bands to play. I heard the gates open at 12pm? Anyone care to fill me in as to how SingFest works? Nut..? Heh. Coz at the moment, I'm only imagining it to be something like Sunburst :]

June 19, 2008

Despite being caught up with college workload, I haveee to drop by to say:

The Death Cab For Cutie show in Malaysia is CANCELLED *sob* [Link.Click]

Update: While us Pirates take great delight in spreading doom, gloom and cheerlessness where ever we are, it still doesn't give us pleasure to announce that the Death Cab for Cutie show in August is cancelled. The official reason is that a Singapore organizer has offered the booking agent a better deal. But apparently, that show is also a little up in the air as far as confirmation goes. The other buzz being touted around is that apparently, the band is only keen to do one show in the region for now because they are planning a SEA tour sometimes later this year/early next year. No concrete word on whether that is true. Mourn ye people, mourn. It's fully deserved.

Also found this from SingFest's forum:

"Greenhorn Productions is pleased to announce Seattle’s DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE will be performing live in Singapore for the very first time on 12 August 2008 as part of a worldwide tour in support of their groundbreaking new album Narrow Stairs, which debuted at #1 on the US Billboard Top 200 Album Chart.

Death Cab for Cutie's rise to Grammy-nominated rock quartet is one of indie rock's greatest success stories. This one night only Singapore gig marks the band's first ever performance in South-East-Asia and promises to be a spectacular evening at the Esplanade Concert Hall on 12 August 2008 at 7.30 p.m.

Tickets are at $68, $88,$108,$128 and $148 (excluding Sistic booking fees) Visit SISTIC (http://www.sistic.com) from 27 June 2008 for all ticketing details."

*dies* First, I can't make it for Lifehouse. Now, DCFC decided to drop their KL tour date as well!?!?!

I was only considering to go to SingFest because I know it'll definitely take up a lot of time and energy (not to mention money) but now I guess I have to go for SingFest to drown my sorrows about Malaysia's pathetic live music scene (well okay, the music scene here now is definitely better than a decade ago!)

and guilt_stricken, Lifehouse is coming to Manila? gosh!!! that's soooo unfair!
Somebody please bring LIFEHOUSE to KL damnit!

it's bad enough we won't be seeing Muse making an appearance at Genting and reading about Travis and Jason Mraz at Singfest!! :'(:'(

So crazy unfair right!? I've attempted to bombard emails to 8tv, OneArmedProductions and all the other music labels here in Malaysia asking them to bring LH over. All were negative responses thoughh Perhaps you could send an email or two to those big guys as well? I'm gonna try writing a personal letter to Lifehouse's bassist soon. Jason mentioned wayy back in January actually that they were "close to booking a show to play in the Philippines" and when I heard that I couldn't believe it at all. Should have started pestering the guys who brought Switchfoot to bring Lifehouse over as well back in January!

You can't make it for SingFest? :-/

Oh and Deb, if you like the softer side of LH, I believe you would definitely love the older stuff from LH. Even way before Lifehouse was even Lifehouse. They were called Blyss. Try listening to Eighties. That's one of their most influential songs IMO. But I could be biased. Lol. I totally love Simon too. Heh. I remember being 13 and listening to Simon over and over and over again :LOL: Sigh, those were the days la...

Oh and to those who care starting next Monday I'll again be a Klang valley resident. Been promoted and transferred to Putrajaya, so I'm up for any future offers to stalk rock bands at KLIA......(hint2 Faz).

Welcome (back?)! I live only a few minutes (well okay about 20 mins) away from your work place. Heh. So how's your first week at Putrajaya? How many times have you been to Alamanda? lol.

As for tonight's Portugal vs Germany match... GERMANY FTW!!

June 8, 2008

Sidetrack sikit - Listen to this.

Britain's got talent!

omg its so weird seeing Spike out of his vampirey look, rocking out on stage! WITH BLACK HAIRR! he really aged a lot huh

sii. it took some time to get used to his non-spike look.. But the James Marsters we'll keep in our minds will always be Spike though?

edit: omg speaking of, i LOVE singing out loud to Rooftops! haha its just so satisfying.

Gotta love that watch on his hands too! XD

. Oh and the hand porn moment at 1:26! :happy:

MTV Asia Awards is coming to Malaysia this year!!!!!!
http://www.mtvasia.com/News/200805/28015989.html

thoughts??

Jared Leto in Malaysia!! Holy cow!! Now, this would be a perfect time to ask him about his co-star Christian Bale! Lol. Here's hoping we can manage to dig info regarding his flight arrival times

I'm not too sure if I'm ready to sit through an agonizing 3 hours at Genting with MTV for Mr Leto though.. And it also falls on August 2nd.. the same day Travis will be playing in Singapore!

-------------

If anyone's interested, you can listen to the brand new Sigur Ros album here!.

The Muse @

seemed like a blast! I know someone who stood rightt at the front row. Wish I was there

June 6, 2008

eh what? James Marsters performed live? he's in a band?

I want to watch Once! it got good reviews on The Star newspaper. is it still playing?? or have they stopped showing it already?

Yess, JamesSpikey can

!!

---------------

Regarding the LH show in Manila...

:unsure:

My heart nearly couldn't take it when a friend of mine dropped the bomb on me Monday, telling me that my graduation/convocation happens to fall on the SAME FREAKING WEEKEND LIFEHOUSE IS PLAYING IN THE PHILIPPINES.

:'( I definitely can't make it anymoree.. My parents would be horrified if I would choose to fly away for LH instead. And I already found out that AirAsia flies you to Manila front and back for only RM430. BLAHH.

Lifehouse's just not supposed to happen for me :[ (Also tried bombarding 8tv etc with emails)

So, to accommodate for that...

Singfest / Phils sounds cool since I cancelled Europe..... *ponders going to S'pore in August*

Lost Prophets are also part of the line-up... $:\mm/:$ and Jason MRAZ!

WOW ur so updated even though you don live here! IM so attracted to Singfest now thanks to Travis! I might go... Are you thinking of going? if only muse can come too heh heh.....

Niiice, Lost Prophets to add to the line up! I've always had the guilty pleasure of singing out loud to Rooftops after a looong day. :LOL:

OH BOY, I think i may just go for singfest! but only one day, i guess. Saturday! I don't think I can afford to pay another $150 for Jason Mraz!

June 1, 2008

Oh and Melwhoops, happy 18th birthday!! You're (almost) legal!

--------

Did anyone catch Once at GSC's International Screens? I'm in love with the soundtrack! It's a very thoughtful movie too. Movie for thinking people? I enjoyed watching the movie - maybe because it has a very Damien Rice-ish style to it.

June 1, 2008

omg i only know 2 songs from Travis but i like those 2 songs! Closer and Love Will Come Through.

wow you're REALLY dedicated when it comes to Lifehouse! haha i admire that i would never do that for Muse. i'm just too damn lazy haha. i would just stay home and... sulk, i guess. and whine and moan and complain a lot

did you know it was James Marsters? i totally didnt til i saw his name on the credits! SO surprising to see him there.

Nah it wasn't kak faz.. it was Shannaz. i'm not EXACTLY sure what happened though, i hope one of em three muse stalkers will enlighten us

You should check out their singles from the album "The Man Who". One of my favourite albums to date :]. Why does it always rain on me? is also apparently the first track from Stephenie Myers' Twilight Playlist! More reasons to listen to Travis?

Haha, well it'll be one of those memorable things that you'll look back 10 years down the road and reflect on how crazy you've been. Why wait around for life to come to you? Should work your own way around it, I say. A backpacking cum concert-going trip to the Philippines should be interesting. Heh. Now, how do I convince my family I'm not crazy?

I saw the name "James Marsters" at the beginning of the movie! I didn't know he would be in the movie too, I was only expecting a lot of Gerard Butler. I knew who to look out for though hehe. Because recently, a friend that went to watch James Marsters' perform live just sent me pics/videos from the gig so I knew how he looked like with dark hair XD

Lol I would loove to hear that story again Shannaz!

June 1, 2008

I hatee being cut off from the internet world even if it's only for a day. It's been ages (lol well not really actually haha but it sure feels like it). Anyway, one down part of being cut off from the internet world is that you can hardly keep up with all the news pouring in.

#1. I just found out that, TRAVIS will be playing in SINGFEST 2008! (More bands to be announced soon!) Nutcracker, will you be heading for that? My sister and I have been kicking ourselves silly since we missed that Travis/Coldplay killer combo show in Singapore a few years back. I don't think we're gonna let Travis slip through our hands again! Down side would be Travis only playing in a festival. That would mean a shorter set from them? Unless they're like Incubus @ Sunburst :happy:

#2. I did not see this coming at all. But LIFEHOUSE has announced a show in MANILA, the Philippines! Can I just say I AM SO GONNA ATTEND THAT MANILA GIG?! I'm already looking into flight tickets to Manila right now, and if that doesn't work out for me I'm gonna bombard every recording/music label and/or radio stations in Malaysia and ask them to bring Lifehouse over here! Despite being really disappointed with how they've recently turned out, one part of me can never give up on them completely. Also, I believe seven years is just too long a wait for them to play at this part of the world!

I'm so gonna have to live with maggi mee for dinner until the rest of the year!

-----------------------

Deb, I can't reply to the earlier posts now but let's just say I watched PS I Love You Too recently as well! James Marsters :O!

Lol I think I remember reading about how Matt asked about Faz's working/teacher tag at the airport? XD Do enlighten us with the story again, perhaps? hehe.

Work load's starting to pour in. Sigh. I guess I'll be out for another week

May 25, 2008

Lol yeah he is! he can sing though! which is always a plus. i saw the interview with him and Catt Sadler again on youtube where he plays pool with her, and when she mentioned Hyrise (the boyband name) he went "Oi". lol so cute la! he's like sooo ashamed of his past.
and how come Evangeline Lilly was with Jimmy Kimmel and Jay Leno right before Ben Barnes came out? no faaaair, i wanna hug and kiss him too

Yeah i remember Bon Jovi. when i saw him there i actually thought he was quite sexy, despite being old and whatnot. wasn't he Maddie's father or something? lol DO you watch Gossip Girl? i do i wasn't too happy with their season finale. Grey's Anatomy's one was soooo much better

oh i stayed back the second time i watched it, i dunno which song it was though! the one after the girly one was really slow and magical, the one after that sounded more switchfoot-like, but i dunno which one was it.

omg. CAN I DATE HIM INSTEAD?? ahhaa just kidding. dont kill me.

whoa he wouldnt let you in even for Switchfoot? but isnt that like your favourite band? maybe he could give us the flight details for DCFC as well.. whats his job as anyway? sounds fun thanks for the link btw. i hope they find sponsors soon!

Hahahaha! I think it's his whooole personality that I'm falling for lol. Oooh yeah I was wondering about Evangeline too.. and I want that pickle from Ben... :LOL:

yes, i do follow Gossip Girl. Guilty pleasure la... It's like when I watched The OC, I keep telling myself I only watch for the music. Lol. I don't quite like the ending too but I'm not sure what I really feel. There were so many things to digest in the end. I love Rufus though! Or maybe it's just the whole... rockstar thing :LOL: I hope he gets together with Lily. Also, do you ship any relationships when you watch a series?

It was the third and final one during the credits. Yay! I can't believe you stayed! Lol. My friends were pretty annoyed that I forced them to stay haha.

Lol SF's not my ultimate fav band, although it does seem like it. That's probably because they were niceee enough to play a show here in Malaysia! Along with Muse! But I'm even more obsessed dedicated to Lifehouse lol (Though I hate that LH is turning a lot more commercialized thesedays Damn you Geffen!). Believe it or not, my friend had to be hospitalized actually a few days leading to the Switchfoot concert! Talk about wrong timing! I suppose they worked their hearts out for the event and it certainly took a toll on him. I managed to greet/hug/talk/meet the guys of SF when they arrived at KLIA - I figured if I did continue pestering my friend for backstage passes, he may be hospitalized even longer lol. So I left it be. He has two jobs actually. A normal day job and he owns a music label. So fun, right? Lately I don't see too much of him though... Must rekindle for the sake of DCFC!

May 25, 2008

That girl is just like a female Matt!! She can sing and plays the guitar + keys.... She wears very heavy make-up though.... and MB is like more talented than avril lavigne. if i remember correctly they "became famous" at the same time but MB wasn't as hot...

WOAH SHIT Sigur Ros!!!!! I hope you read right!!!!

Haha yeah perhaps the pictures that I posted were a little too heavy on the make up

On the topic of female musicians though, who do you think would be your personal favourite? Not in terms of looks or anything, but talent and everything in general.

We can only hope the Sigur Ros rumour is true! Do they sell the Heima DVD at Singapore btw?

oh my god. James Marsden totally wins extra points against Ben Barnes with his singing talent but Ben Barnes was from a boy band so i guess he can sing too. just not as dreamy as James Marsden i forgot, was Billy the one that died or the one played by Robert Downy Jr?

lol did they mention it in the book about his age? no way can he take so much responsibility at the age of 15!! maybe 18... or more la. when he's a 'man'

oh btw i watched Prince Caspian again LOL. and this time, in every scene that Barnes was in (even if he's in the background), i'd be staaaaaaaaaaring at him, grinning to myself i cant help it! he's so beautiful! but that Spanish accent of his.. plus the fake hair and fake tan. not that nice. but he's still beautifiul

Omg this is such a small world, Title & Registration is my handphone ringtone! i like the first guitar-y part of the song! very ringtone-worthy. lol. omg. your friend is involved? can we get backstage passes? wait you said you read it on a blog that Death Cab is coming right? linkage please!

Hahaha you can really see that Ben's extremely embarrassed about his boy band past! Did you watch the interview of him with Jimmy Kimmel? Ben was so adorable when he looked down, all shy about that clip :LOL:

Billy was the guy that died. I remember Jon Bon Jovi playing another one of Ally's love interest... He was the plumber or something. Heh. I wonder why we're talking about Ally when we should be talking about more current shows like... Gossip Girl? lol

I just did a google search on Prince Caspian and apparently Caspian is only 13 years ollldddd during the events that happened in that book! The directors must've increased Caspian's age in the movie version so that Ben could play him :0 I watched the movie twice too actually! Probably a third time this week when I get back to school. Before you call me a crazy Ben Barnes fan though (although I don't think I would mind ) the onllyyyy thing that I really look forward to would be the end credits actually. Haha.. You see, Switchfoot actually wrote a song called

for the movie. Disney however, played a completely different version of the song during the credits - a stripped down version with a lot of "magic" thrown into the lyrics (literally). Before the movie was released, we've been told that This Is Home was supposed to be featured in the movie too, but then Disney must've overlooked Switchfoot and they cut off their parts only to play a different version of the song during the credits

Sigh, can't complain though - after all I did get to hear Switchfoot through the theatre speakers... :] and also bugging ppl to stay for the credits lol.

*sets Title & Registration as ringtone* ... *forces sister to call* OMG you're right! It works as a ringtone! I doubt my friend would give me backstage passes... unless I start dating him lol. He wouldn't even let me in for Switchfoot, although he was the one that confirmed the flight arrival times for both Switchfoot and Incubus when they landed in Malaysia I did ask him if he needed any help for the DCFC gig though, he said he'll let me know if anything comes up! Here's the entry where I first heard of news regarding DCFC in Malaysia!

May 24, 2008

How is it that Sunburn did not make it into HAARP? =[

Anyway, a trip down memory lane:

May 24, 2008

MMMM yeah i remember that!!! she was SOOO young back then omg. so shocking to see her all grown up and gorgeous now.

aww he sang in Ally Mcbeal?!?! now i'm tempted to download those episodes hahaha. nothing better than a young James Marsden!

yeah i took a pic of that gap poster as well!! i put it as my phone's wallpaper but now it got replaced with a smiling pic of Prince Caspian from the Star Newspaper... aaaaah...

omg i MUST take a pic of that cardboard cut out with Prince Caspian as well

btw, about Ally Mcbeal, did the whole series end with her flying off to somewhere or something because Maddie wanted to see her dad or something? i remember that was the very last episode i watched and i was dying to watch the next season but nothing came out

You can watch him sing here! Goshh.. James Marsden's voice is soo dreamy! *melts* When I have the time, I think I'll watch/stream Ally McBeal again! The whole thing she had to go through with Billy was so tragic. She left for NY right at the end? Hmm I don't really remember the details of it, but I know she left the firm for the sake of Maddie.

I love my friend's phone wallpaper! She has a KL Muse gig pic as her wallie. :musesign:

yeah i love his accent la omg. its just so lovely to listen to. i heard from interviews that he's single, he's a leo and he likes funny girls. woot. I CAN BE FUNNYYY!! hahaaha.. too bad he's 9 years older than me :'( whyyyyy does he have to be 27 this year!!! whyyyyyyyyyy!!!! *melodramatically emo* wait... he was in the poster with Kenny Rogers? whuttt?

The Edward you imagined looked more like Rob Pattinson? i dunno why but its like, due to all these stereotypes of vampires, i'm finding it hard to imagine vampires with light coloured hair (except for Spike from Buffy ) and golden eyes. usually their eyes are either black or red. but i guess thats because THE main characteristic of a vampire is that they drink human blood and not animal blood

Then how did you imagine Caspian to look like? more like Peter?

In Ben Barnes' next show, he stars with Jessica Biel!! that lucky *insertswearwordhere*. she's together with Justin Timberlake and she gets to marry Ben Barnes! roaaaaaaar. i wanna be Jessica Biel. lol.

Ehhh 27 year old guys can be so much more appealing than 18-22 year old guys! They're definitely a lot more mature :]

Apparently if you eat that special set at Kenny Rogers (the restaurant, that is.. not the person lol!) you stand a chance to win Narnia muffin goodies! :LOL:

Ooooohh don't let me get started with Spike (James Marsters!)! lol Caspian I had in mind was pretty young... about 15 or so haha! Not as dashing as Barnes but more like... bright, bubbly, bergaya and easy to get along with... But Ben now made Caspian smexy, hot, and sinful! :chuckle I'm not complaining though

OH. MY. GOD. DEATH CAB IS COMING? ARE YOU SERIOUS? HOLY SHIT I AM SOOOOO THERE!
I want proof first! lol! so that i wont get my hopes up. among all the bands i love, death cab was one of the few that i thought will NEVER come to our shores because we're so ulu to the rest of the world.

have you heard their new song from their new album? i think its called I WIll Posess Your Heart or something. i only heard the last minute of it (more or less, on Channel V) and it sounded really rock! less acoustic emo nemo Death Cab. i wasn't sure it was them til i saw the vocalist's face.

If they're really coming, i'm gonna start listening to ALL their songs. i only have a few favourites now

I loooove Title & Registration from Transatlanticism! I'm not sure what I should really feel now. I think the Death Cab gig is pretty much confirmed - unless the permits don't get through at the last minute! I've been told by my friend who's involved in it as well! Apparently Homegrown Records will be the main organizer. Will definitely keep you posted with the details :happy:

May 23, 2008

Hmmm, can't really remember what I typed earlier :-/ but here's what I can remember!

OH YEAH DAVID COOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOHOOOOOO!!!!

Not that I follow AI religiously, but I have to say, singing songs from U2, Collective Soul, Switchfoot and Our Lady Peace... he's definitely on my good side of books!

------------------

btw, Man Utd was PLAIN LUCKY to win last nite. Chelsea should've won! damn penalties!

*sob* I don't see why Ronaldo was allowed to make a mistake but not Anelka! Chelsea's never lucky during penalty shootouts though. Despite having Cech around. My heart goes out to John Terry though. He's gonna be so hard on himself! Sigh.

-------------------

i just feel like this thread needs some girly pics, for a change, you know.

Meet Michelle Nolan, of Straylight Run fame.

Best part? She plays guitar, keyboard AND she sings!

I have a friend who adores Michelle Branch:

At least, the MB 5-6 years back...

Talking about Paramore, there's a rumour that they're performing in SG...

I heard about that too, I think I heard the rumour for a Malaysian gig as well! A number of my friends would definitely be excited for Paramore, but really, i'm saving all my excitement for... DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE! well not exactly mainstream, but still - they're actually playing a gig here in Malaysia THIS AUGUST! I'm so excited!! Never in a million years would you think DCFC would even want to play in Malaysia. But it's happening! (well, according to this rather trust-worthy blog where i first heard of the Explosions in the Sky gig) Post-rock band Mono's playing a show here in July as well. Last but not least... don't quote me on this.. but, I also read that Sigur Ros might just stage a show in Singapore later this year! Wow, finanlly someone has taken notice that we've been deprived of good shows here! 2008 is seriously a good year for post rock in South East Asia!

my last post for this week and the next. flying off to Terengganu tomorrow! woooohooooo!!! will be back home on the day when the Breaking Dawn cover and first chapter excerpt comes out!!!!! (hopefully will be shown on the internet), and also the day before my birthday take care and have an a-MUSE-ing week everyone!

Have fun in t'ganu! I love 'em keropok lekors!

YAAAAAAAAAAYYYY EXAMS ARE OVER AND ZE HOLIDAYS ARE HEEEERRREEE!!!!!

Congrats! I can't believe my holidays are coming to an end however

May 23, 2008

Long post ahead! Just came back from my trip up north (again) for a makan fest. Safe to say that at Penang, I ate, makan-ed, ate, ate, makan more and ate til my heart's consent. My only regret was not eating Pasembur! (no more space in my stomach la!)

But really, Penang has the craziest one-way streets. Ever! The trip ended up a little stressful due to all the navigations lol It was a nice change of environment however! On with the replies:

i hate myself for this but for some reason i just cant remember him in Ally Mcbeal! i guess i was still pretty young when i watched it. i was seriously cracking my head when i read on wiki that he was on Ally Mcbeal! i remember Robert Downey Jr, but i dont remember James Marsden =( was he Ally's boyfriend or something?

Yes, he played this new young lawyer working at Ally's firm. Ally dated him briefly but then she broke it off (I think) because she thinks he's too young for her and that he's still in love with his ex-girlfriend - who happens to be a lawyer as well working at Ally's firm. If my memory doesn't fail me, I remember there was this one episode where James took the mic and started singing along with Vonda Shepard. He was soo adorable in that epi! Oh, and I looove that James GAP ad too! I would walk pass by his ad at One Utama and force my friends to take random pictures of me and the ad :LOL: (I also did the same with the huuuggge cardboard cut out of Prince Caspian at Sunway! Wish there was some way I could steal it.. Sigh. Oh, and I remember reading a post in this thread a year ago about how this guy managed to get Muse's cardboard cut out from a shop or something... he brought it into the LRT as well and people were staring at him? lol.)

Little known Ally McBeal trivia : Hayden Panettiere of Heroes fame played Ally's daughter, Maddie!

-----------

LOL SERIOUSLY? what movie is that?!

P.S- girls, the JRM, Ewan and Cristian Bale is Velvet Goldmine, supposedly inspired by Bowie shenanigans. But dont watch it if u cant take explicit man-on-man action / garish rock star fashion, or you'll be scarred forever. heheh.

Hehe, yes Velvet Goldmine! I'm guessing you watched it before, Miele? Lol. It was.. disturbing for sure but I can't help but love the fact that JRM, Ewan & Christian all had their moments with each other in VG XD

Speaking of actors working together.. I cannot wait for the new Johnny Depp/Christian Bale/David Wenham/Channing Tatrum movie, Public Enemies! Johnny Depp ANDDD Christian Bale? with David Wenham (Faramir) added to that! oh my goodness!! I'm not sure if my ovaries can take it! and I thought The Prestige had the best cast ever (Wolverine and Batman going up against each other? RAWR.) An amazing movie btw.

Oh Velvet Goldmine! the one where they all acted as David Bowie right? and Cate Blandchette got an award for it or something? or am i wrong?

I think that movie's called I'm Not There. Would be interesting to catch that movie too though! Something tells me it won't reach our shores though..

Personally I prefer sensitive, artsy men so in an ideal world I would be married to:

Mmmmmmmm helllooooo Viggo! Did you watch Eastern Promises? XD

-------------------------

he'd make a fantastic Edward. plus his eyes are like SO BLACK. LIKE A VAMPIRE only he'd look weird in golden hair soo... maybe not. haha.

LOL i wasnt thinking of anything perverse i swear! its just that nobody really uses that word that often and the way he says it is just so.... lovely. hahaha. i'm so weird.
yeah he sounds really funny, and you dont have to worry about any awkward silences because he talks alot! aaaaaaaaaand he's also incredibly beautiful. he should play Edward Cullen OMG DID I JUST SAY THAT?

Haha the way he says "naturally" sounds really lovely too! XD I saw an enormous Prince Caspian/Kenny Rogers billboard near Queensbay Mall that day. Hee.

I'm not too sure about him playing Edward Cullen though :0 Maybe because the Edward I had in mind ... ...I'm not too sure how to describe it..! Ben kinda ... changed my whole outlook of Prince Caspian (but maybe then when I read Narnia, my mind was still .. innocent :LOL: ) i'm not sure if I want the same thing to happen to my Edward! lol. It would be nice to see him in such a challenging role though!

I made my cousin read my copy of Twilight. Hurray! I'm spreading the love too. To think that Muse was the one that made me pick up Twilight.. haha!

------------------------

what's this with hand fetish, Liz? it kinda remind me of this one episode of Friends where Joey found his hand twin in Vegas.. i've never seen such great pictures. u shouldn't hid them behind those spoiler tags!

It's true though!

Lol Friends is one of the few comedy series that you can watch over and over and over and over again - you'll never get bored of it!

-------------------

Edit: what the barnacles! the board cut out a whole lot of my original post away I guess I must've exceeded the number of allowed characters in a post or something :indiff: Grrr..

May 19, 2008

Omg yeah Ewan Mcgregor, Christian Bale and the new BEN BARNESS!!! but there're hot american guys too like Brandon Boyd, Brandon Flowers, Chad Michael Murray, Chace Crawford, JAMES MARSDEN (THE LOVE OF MY LIFE), Patrick "Mcdreamy" Dempsey... blablabla.

Don't you love James Marsden in Ally McBeal?!? he's even more adorable when he starts singing! Double yumm to both of the Brandons you mentioned!

mmmmm JRM. I love him in that Hugo ad. daaaaaaaaamn hot

Yay, JRM love! Can you believe Christian Bale, JRM and Ewan McGregor all acted in a movie once? Even better - they fall for one another! Lol.

lol i'm with you on the hands bit (except for the fetish part). I dont think guys know how much girls like nice clean smooth hands! i've met lotsa girls who went like "oh i saw this cute guy the other day and HE HAS NICE HANDS!" haha. hands are pretty important. i cant stand guys with long filthy nails, but i also cant stand guys with super short bitten or torn nails either. haha. i'm very particular

Hahaha yeahh, a lot of people don't get it though when I tell them hand porn is addictive Lol annnd sorry for posting all these pictures here, but I'll put it in a spoiler code so that it won't annoy the other Muse Malaysian fans! Be warned - the following pictures may cause your ovaries to explode! :LOL: At least, mine did lol

Let's start off with

1. Our own Matthew Belamy - gotta love the mic grabbing

2. Ewan McGregor

3. Andrew McMahon

4. Christian Bale

5. Brandon Boyd

6. Ben Barnes

7. Nick Heidfeld

8. Jason Wade

9. James Marsden

10. Johnny Depp - OK, eventhough his fingers are not shown in this pic.. but look at those arms!

Not convinced that hand porn is addictive? Lol I could go on forever but.... Oh craaap. I should be packing for my trip to Penang because I'm leaving in a few hours! Instead I'm posting random pictures here.. What is this now, a hot guys' thread? Lol I suppose we've taken hijacking to a whole new level XD Sorry! But eye/hand candy is good once in awhile, no?

---------------------

Ohhhh that explains it. no wonder la i was like wondering why he's bringing them to our world! I didnt really notice the whole.. 'subliminal' message until you mentioned it actually. i know that C. S. Lewis was all pro-religion and the golden compass author fella was against Lewis and his pro-religion-ness but i didnt think it would be translated into the movie as well.

There are parts in the book/movie that were cringe-worthy. How Aslan's supposed to portray God etc.. I try not to look too deep into the religious issues surrounding the movie but yeah - I suppose it's a good way to instill a certain "faith" in your kids without them really noticing. Heh.

Did anyone stay behind til the end of credits btw? Lol, just wondering.

oh i finally watched the Ben Barnes @ Jay Leno vid, thanks Liz, and oh man he's so adorable! i love the way he says "enormous". its so... british. LOL. and his accent is just..... lovely to listen to. i iz happy. haha.

LOL exactly whaaat were you thinking when he said "enormous"? :chuckle I think he would be a great guy to hang out with. If only we could like, play pool with him or something, like Catt Sadler!

Off to pack now! Hopefully I'll get to go online once I'm in Penang. Speaking of Penang, any idea where I can find the best fried kuey teow/curry laksa mee?

May 19, 2008

Oh and Happy Wesak Day, everyone!

and also, happy birthday Miele! That's a very interesting name btw! :happy:

May 19, 2008

it seems that most u guys here prefer the English men than the Americans?or just the accent?

i prefer Mansfield Park than Pride and Prejudice but Mr Darcy has been my Mr Right since i was in high school. However, Dom is my current Mr Right la .. Colin Firth is the perfect Mr Darcy. i love him.he's sooo English esp in Bridget Jones. Mathew Mcfayden makes Mr Darcy looks so young.. but his voice woooh... so smexy heh heh. oops my turn to be girlish pulak! i can't help to feel that Jane Eyre is a bit too ...meh... esp the part where Jane heard Edward calling out her name and the fact that only after he is poor and disabled that they can be together .. but i like the way Charlotte wrote about Bertha.. that was really interesting. Wuthering Heights on the other hand, is a masterpiece. terseksa jiwa raga everytime i read that book.

I like my fair share of American guys too lol but I suppose my heart lies with the sexy English men. Ewan McGregor, Billy Crudup, Christian Bale... But really, if any guy has beautiful, sexy hands, I tend to like them immediately. For some reason, I have this ... hand fetish. :LOL:

Aww, I thought that moment between Jane and Edward was ... romantic I felt so happy when she went back to him. I felt so depressed after reading Wuthering Heights! Perhaps I enjoyed Jane Eyre a lot more because I felt it was easier to read back then.

and the twilight saga is not kiddies lit! they're young adult books

Yes, I agree whole-heartedly! Lol it was under the YA section of Borders.. Unfortunately while I was looking through the books, this ... 15 year old girl came beside me to browse through the books as well. Not too sure how that made me feel -_-

sorry about the girly talk! lol i guess now that with the summer blockbusters coming up, lotsa eye candies are gonna be shown as well . Yeah i have to agree with kak faz there. iron man is way better than Narnia. which means i've watched Narnia already! haha.

very kiddy la. its overall an okay movie but its not like PHWOAR THAT MOVIE IS AWESOME like Iron Man was for me sorry!and wtf why did Prince Caspian kiss that fugly Susan! i iz jelez. lol.

Also, i thought Narnia was the world? how come now in the second movie Narnia is like... a race. or a country

ok i have to admit that Caspian lad, Ben? is kinda cute (but looks too boyish).. reminds me of Orlando Bloom. i didn't know he is English btw. why la jeles deb? i was hoping that she would end up with Prince Caspian at the end of the movie la.. heh heh.
i really adore aslan and those cute mice.. but iron man was like fuyooo kinda movie la.. narnia is kinda childish a bit. funnier and better than the first one tho..

Speaking of summer blockbusters, my mom's excited about Indiana Jones :LOL: I'm looking forward to... The Dark Knight! Christian Bale...! Sexiest version of Bruce Wayne. Ever. What more with Heath Ledger's posthumous appearance, this is definitely going to be one daaark movie.

Haha, Narnia is definitely kiddy. After all, it is based upon children's books. I myself grew up with these books though so when I watched the movie, it reminded me a lot of the time when I read those books. Having said that, the romance between Prince Caspian and Susan was definitely not in the books! But I guess they just wanna spice things up a little so they added that part in. Take comfort though Debbie, that the kiss looked like a lousy kiss XD But that hug he gave her was really ... nice though! Sigh. They also made Caspian look like a complete fool beside Peter. I would hope for Caspian to be more Aragorn-like :happy: Hmm..maybe in the next movie!

Aslan explained at the end that the Telmarines (Caspian's race) were pirates or something from our world, but they landed on this island and found a cave that brought them to Narnia.. Therefore they invaded Narnia and took it as their land... Which is why he offered to bring any Telmarine who wanted to head back to that island at the end of the movie. Or something like that. I haven't read those books in awhile!

Ah, and you gotta love Liam Neeson's voice as Aslan

they still never explained why Aslan MIA for 100+ years though. I'd be mad at him if i were them.

He went missing because... no one really trully believed in him anymore after Peter, Edmund, Susan and Lucy vanished. When CS Lewis wrote the Chronicles of Narnia, many believed he was actually trying to preach through those books. Only Lucy saw him at first because she believed in him but not the other three kids until much later in the movie.
