Red Cliff Promo at Plaza Singapura
I had just finished my dinner on Thursday at Plaza Singapura, when I saw crowd gathered on the ground floor, in what turned out to be Red Cliff movie promo, where the casts came and greet the crowd. With countless big names like Tony Leung, Takeshi, Zhao Wei, Lin Chi-ling in the movie directed by John Woo, this movie better be good.
There was huge crowd on the ground floor, second floor, third floor, and so on. Only at the seventh floor I didn’t see people standing and looked down (it’s pretty far to see from up there).
The warrior wearing what I’m sure not as heavy as it looked.
Did they have Superman back in good old warrior days?
This one looks pretty good I find.
The em-cee of the day.
And of course Lin Chi Ling, the pretty gal in the movie.

Outside Plaza Singapura at the same time, there was Singapore flag presentation ceremony for Beijing Olympics Games 2008 by Mr. Teo Chee Hean, Minister for Defence, which frankly didn’t interest as many people as the event inside. They should have known that better and schedule it for another time or day maybe, shouldn’t they? Some Singapore flag presentation will never attract crowd as Lin Chi Ling, won’t it?

Enchanted
If you need an entertaining movie for a very good laugh, Enchanted is perfect for you. I thoroughly enjoyed it, laughing virtually non-stop from start to finish. Highly recommended. ![]()

One week update

Since last week’s lunch at River City, it has been a busy week for me. First, the nights were spent watching Wimbledon, in particular Men’s Singles Final between Roger Federer (world number 1) and Rafael Nadal (world number 2). The match went very very tense, with emotions flying up and down. Federer won the first set 7-6 after a thrilling tie-breaks, but Nadal won the second set 6-4, then another tie break which Federer won, but again Nadal fought back to equal the set by winning the fourth set 6-2. Federer record in 5 sets are 9 wins to 10 losses, whereas Nadal’s 9 wins to 2 losses, so the odds are in Nadal’s favour. Federer was down 15-40 twice and Nadal just needed one point to break in the final set. Instead, Federer saved all four break points chances, and broke Nadal in the sixth game to lead 4-2.
Minutes later, at 5-2, a first championship point for Federer was saved by Nadal, but he couldn’t prevent world number 1 from getting his fifth consecutive Wimbledon’s trophy on a second break point. The match ended 7-6, 4-6, 7-6, 2-6, 6-2 to the champion. Okay, before I sound like a sports news reporter, I’ll stop here, but it was a really really thrilling match. The best tennis match I’ve ever watched so far.
On Friday, I also went for Die Hard 4. The movie supposedly started at 8.50pm, we came in at 8.55 pm, and the movie has already started. Apparently, I have missed three scenes
Very good movie it was.
Saturday was Iwan and Sari wedding high-tea reception. The first wedding that I attended that has drama in it. Good job for the organizers. Of course, congrats Iwan and Sari, not sure if any of you will ever read this anyway. A 7-years long distance relationship is never easy, and I salute both of you for pulling it through.
Monday was Monday blue.
Tuesday was normal.
Wednesday, another lunch, this time I went to Mustard’s at Little India for authentic Bengal and Punjabi food. Needless to say I didn’t enjoy it, but it’s a good experience nonetheless. Will I go back? Not a chance. Will I recommend? Well, if you like Indian food, I guess so

At night, I went for Harry Potter movie. Quite short I felt, but the movie was just okay I felt. I’m still looking forward to Transformers though. Settled dinner at Kenny Rogers accompanied by all those romantic oldies song haha… Great day, I truly enjoyed today

Spiderman III
Reviews from others I heard before I watched it ranges from lowly 2 stars to complete 5 stars.
I’ll give it 5 stars for the 2 hours 15 minutes movie. Great to watch, the action, the emotion, all that was blended into the movie. Granted, some parts are draggy, but overall, I’m very satisfied with the movie.
Highly recommended to watch if you have not
