Hey Ellen!

And a new season of American Idol starts again. The BEST thing is, they're bringing the old format back. Maybe this time I'll watch again.

And Ellen as a new addition will make the show much more interesting (and hilarious). Go Ellen!!! :D

First Movie Of The Year

Caught "Old Dogs" just now and it's really hilarious!!! This was one of those impromptu movie occasions with Jason and Sean Paul so I wasn't expecting anything, but I gotta admit that I enjoyed it. Story was predictable, acting was so-so, chemistry between Travolta and Williams was alright. All in all, I definitely had a great laugh.

Rating: 4/5

New York New York's Fiery Fish & Chips was awesome!!! The batter tasted like the one found on Goreng Pisang but the fish was really really fresh. Even Jason's ribs (not literally his) beats Cafe Cartel's. Btw it was my first time @ NYNY, and I'll just say that I'm in for a return visit.

The Beginning Of Another Decade

HAPPY NEW YEAR Y'ALL!!!

Anyway, would like to share some awesome posters of movies that will be coming to theatres this year.

I'm actually quite excited for this film after watching the trailer. But I dunno if it will do well because video game adaptations don't normally succeed...

I know everyone's hyped for War Machine in this coming sequel, but I think Whiplash is also damn cool!!! Can't wait for this.

This is the film that really wowed me with its teaser trailer. It's so futuristic and Matrix-esque. But it's gonna be a long wait since it's only coming to theatres in December. :(

And of course "Alice In Wonderland". Who can resist a Tim Burton film? Plus a stellar cast which includes Johnny Depp and Anne Hathaway.

Funny how these 4 movies all fall under Disney (Yes, Marvel was bought over by Disney if you didn't know)... Well besides them, there's also "Clash Of The Titans":

This film is far too badass to pass. With giant scorpions, Medusa and the OMG-sized Kraken, nobody should give this a miss.

Well besides these, there's also "Robin Hood", "Shrek Forever After", "Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows", "Kick-Ass", "The Sorcerer's Apprentice", "Jonah Hex", "Toy Story 3", "The Last Airbender", "Salt", "The Chronicles Of Narnia: Voyage Of The Dawn Treader" and "Gulliver's Travels". I just hope that I can find the time to catch all of them.

Let A New Chapter Unfold

So the exam results were out... I was actually aiming for a GPA of 3.5, but I scored higher than that. Hence, I'm HAPPY!!! :D

Although I hoped for at least 1 A but didn't get any, I'm still thankful. I just need to pull it up a little to reach my ideal 3.8 and maintain it so that I can go for my exchange programme overseas.

Well, all I gotta say now is, WATCH YOUR BACK. BECAUSE GARY'S GONNA COME HARD NEXT SEM!!!

Till then, here's Gary, signing off.

INSANITY 2 pics

A few work-in-progress screenies for the new installment of the series.





Still require a bit of touching-up (ooh matron!) before they can be used for the game.

Forensic Science All Over Again

Caught "Sherlock Holmes" yesterday and it was so damn awesome!!! Great movie to end the year with. Story was nice, characters were portrayed fantastically and the soundtrack was fitting and excellent (Kudos to Hans Zimmer). I didn't know Guy Ritchie was such a good director! Downey Jr. and Law sure had great chemistry together. Some parts of the film reminded me of the forensic science module though. But it helped to actually have some background knowledge about time of death, putrefaction etc. Haha.

Rating: 5/5

Merry X-Mas Y'all.
