Posted by: irugnotmis on: September 14, 2009
The 44th Golden Bell Award nominations came out on the 10th. I planned to write a paragraph or two about it and cram it in one of those E-News Round Ups (read the last AND first one here). But since 1) I’ve already devoted a hefty amount of time recapping some of the dramas and [...]

It came after all, the danger of carrying the chip. A self-important killer steps out in front of Xi Ying and rests his rifle on one shoulder. He smirks arrogantly and says, “Kill you or not, I’ll get the chip.” — speaking too soon — before the smug smile can disappear, the lights in [...]

Despite its 2.12 average rating, Black & White’s success can be seen on PSP, torrent, youtube/dailymotion, and various self-hosted video streaming sites and blogs — hardly a profit-friendly recognition, but I hope there’s enough revenue made to cover the costs. Director Tsai, the man who made the drama possible, who is going to make the [...]

“What are you doing?!” A very bad actor yells at Hero. (Whadda you think? He’s abducting your Barbie in broad daylight.) “Follow me!” Hero grunts at Mu Sha, ignoring the flight assistant’s (the said bad actor) frantic attempt to interfere. — I say “frantic” as a terrible hyperbole. Like, barely moving kind of frantic. — [...]

The Old Man’s look of shock gradually softens to a smile. “Alike, very alike.” he marvels. “What?” already choking on tears, Hero musters with great difficulty. “Your eyes. They look exactly like your mothers.” (Er, I just mentally dropped a wig on Hero’s head… Let’s just say the resulting image does not look very [...]

The gun, the prints, and the body, all that’s missing is a scented note saying:
I got you! ♥ Happy belated April fool’s!
– Love, Mu Sha
PS: See ya in another 5 yrs!

She might as well try to rub it in his face, that way, he’d have someone to blame on. But deep down, Hero knows that [...]

Black & White – A Montage-esque After Post
Posted by: irugnotmis on: August 9, 2009
As a compromise between the poll result and what I was willing to do, I’ve decided to write an After Post rather than a comprehensive Overview. The latter simply takes too much time.
In this After Post, I’ll rant and rave about what I liked (characters) and what I didn’t like (characters!) — because I’ve been [...]
