Caught Madagascar at GV Grand on Saturday afternoon. Was quite an unlucky day for a movie because the GV ticketing system was down and they can’t check what seat we are located. They ask us to use the AXS station to print the tickets, but LiXiang is using UOB Mini Debit Card and the card is too small to fit into the card reader of the AXS station. Luckily LiXiang is smart and she remembered the seats number which normally I can’t be bother to remember at all if I am the one booking the tickets. We wrote our details down on a piece of paper and we went in. It was chaos on that day, the whole place is so crowded.

Madagascar was not bad, but it was pretty short. I still prefer Robots though. I like the part best when the head of the squirrel (I think) was dancing to the song “I like to move it move it”.

Caught Star Wars: Episode III yesterday at GV Marina. Show lasted 2 hours and 20 minutes. It was good, I didn’t saw episode 1, 4, 5 and 6. I only saw episode 2 and 3 and I kinda like the storyline. 2 thumbs up.

Saw Sahara, show was around 2 hours also. It was good, regretted not catching it in the cinema.

Watched XXX2: The Next Level at GV Grand on Labour Day. Excellent action pack show which will keep you at the edge of your seat. It lives up to the reputation of XXX1. But if you are looking for storyline instead, I suggest you give this a miss.

Watched Divergence yesterday, not a good show at all. It is like a replica of Infernal Affairs, but either they fail badly or simply I am too dumb to understand what the movie is toking about.

As the title of this post says, I have updated this site to WordPress 1.5. It is the smoothest upgrade I have ever been through. No errors or major mishaps at all, just some very minor cosmetic bugs. If you found any errors, please drop me an email or post it in the forum. I have made a habit of reading my forums once every 2 days =)
