Procrastination

February 11th, 2007 · 1 Comment

We had dedicated this weekend to be productive – we wanted to organize all the tax related documents (just gathering, not even start), and file my petition to remove the temporary status of my permanent resident status so that I can have “permanent” permanent resident status (try to say that really quick 10 times). Well, [...]

The Illusionist

January 12th, 2007 · No Comments

We watched The Illusionist the other day (I think it was the 1st or 2nd day it came out on DVD) since I had originally wanted to go watch it in the theater, and both Jeannie and I liked it very much. Jeannie commented that it’s one of the best movies that we have seen [...]

The Decent

December 30th, 2006 · No Comments

Well, it’s the New Year weekend and kinda cold outside, so we decided to watch a movie at home. Since scary movies are usually denied at the theaters, we took this chance to watch one in the comfort of our own home with all the lights turned on just in case something jumps out of [...]

Happy Holidays everyone! Hope everyone had a good relaxing time and got some gifts that you really wanted.This year we didn’t really do that much. A family dinner pretty much sums up the whole thing. We did, however, watched a bunch of DVDs over the holidays: The Ninth Gate Beginning – OK, looks interesting… Middle [...]

December 16th, 2006 · No Comments

Actually we watched Stranger than Fiction last weekend, but I just didn’t write about it till now. They opened up a new Harkins Theatres in Chino Hills so Jeannie & I thought that we go check it out. It’s one of them mega ones, you know, 20 screens (didn’t count, seems like), nice big seats, [...]

The O-Man! that’s a bad movie

October 19th, 2006 · No Comments

So thinking that the 666 ads looked interesting, I got The Omen (2006) from Netflix and watched it with my parents and Jeannie. And sure, the previews were interesting, but that’s pretty much all the good parts of the movies – a couple minutes. The plot was slow moving and rather retarded, the supposed “scary” [...]

Diarrhea of the Mouth

September 15th, 2006 · No Comments

Did you know that there is actually a word made just for that? I certainly didn’t know, not until I learned the word in Akeelah and the Bee, which, by the way, is a good movie, and I definitely recommand it. So here is the Word of the Day: Logorrhea Diarrhea of the Mouth, or [...]

Slow weekend, Reviews of bad movies

August 27th, 2006 · No Comments

I think both Jeannie & I are still suffering from jet lags… Neither of us could get a good night of sleep even thought we didn’t have to work today. We both woke up a couple of times during the night and in the morning woke up early and couldn’t go back to sleep… Hopefully [...]

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest

July 12th, 2006 · No Comments

So we tried to go watch it Sunday night thinking that no one else watches movies on Sunday nights and got to the theater 1 min before the show started – and we were wrong obviously. There was already a line outside for the next show. We gave up and drove home. Then we tried [...]

Superman Returns

June 28th, 2006 · No Comments

So I got home a bit early today and decided to go check out the new Superman Returns. The movie was in general not bad, it was a tad bit long. Jeannie thinks that it’s more like a romance movie, and she thinks Superman is cute with his self-styling hair and his manly hand gestures [...]
