Raja Lawak 4

Posted by Tany | Daily Life, Movies & DVD | Sunday 14 February 2010 9:09 am

Raja Lawak 4 or roughly translated as ‘King of Comedy season 4′…

It’s a malaysian reality tv show where each week contestants would have to make a standup comedy in front of live audience for 2 minutes and the not-so-funny ones will be voted out. I thought season 1 and 2 were great and funny.. the best did win.. even though in season one Yus won (whom I did not find quite as funny) but we see now the runner up and the 3rd place winner, Zizan and Johan or Jozan being the popular ones… seasons 2 gave us the TRUE king of comedy, Nabil. Whenever I watch Nabil, I could not stop laughing. His jokes aren’t lame, and he never resort to toilet humor where those lame comedians thought jokes about dirty stuff such as fart or anything is funny.. IT’S NOT. It’s not only disgusting but it’s NOT FUNNY. The 3rd season gives us Sepah.. whom out ALL the contestants in season 3, they’re the only ones that’s funny. I still can’ get over how Amir got into the final and won 3rd place when week after week I feel like punching that retarded midget.

Season 4

Where should I start? Well there’s not much to say except the contestants aren’t funny at all, jokes are lame.. overall it has gone to the bottom of the hell. IT’S STUPID. It’s not funny. What the hell is this? It’s supposed to be a show in search of comedians but what do we get? They all are not fit to be a comedian. I repeat, THEY ARE NOT FUNNY AT ALL. Everytime I turn on the TV, I feel like either throwing my tv out the window or kill myself.

Judges

What. The. Eff.
Why did they change the judges? No, they’re not funny at all with their comments. I’m sorry, I’m a huge fan of Afdlin Shauki, Bob Lokman and Din Beramboi but er no.. with them, the show now feel as if it’s just a stupid show. Everything is a joke. It’s not serious. I so prefer the old judges, the veterans..veterans won’t tolerate toilet humor unlike new judges would. What I don’t think is funny, they think it’s hilarious. I don’t get it.

Seriously, stupid shows like this makes me have high blood pressure, pisses me off to no end… I’m just waiting for my blood vessels to burst from all the stupidity. There shouldn’t be a season 5 because it sucks unless they reorganize the show again and FIND FUNNY CONTESTANTS instead of stupid ones. Audience laugh because stupid Malaysians like toilet humor.. they have no sense of good humor. I mean come on, they all laugh and voted for Amir… he’s a good example of MENTAL RETARDATION. A disgrace to the comedy world.

Hi.

Oh my God.

I bought Charmed season 1 DVD and Glee season 1 DVD.. and I ordered South Park season 1 and 2 DVD.. if my mom knows I’m dead cuz she’s anti-DVD. Anyways. Yeah, I love Charmed.. it’s one of the old tv series that I’ll never get tired of watching. I have season 8 (final season) DVD so I’ve been wanting the very first one for quite some time now. I’m slowly gonna collect all seasons. As for Glee, I don’t know.. it’s fricken showing on TV but I like it so much (a big fan of Jane Lynch) that I decided to buy the DVD instead.. plus they have stock anyway so why not.

I went shopping today and hung out with Claudia. I really miss hanging out with people but everyone’s working now pfft.. either busy doing overtime at work or doing internship. So I’m alone cuz I’m the only one not doing anything and just wasting my life away. Awesome. I had Ikea meatballs today.. wow haven’t had that in such a LONG time.. I think almost a year? Or at least half a year, because we couldn’t substitute fries with mashed potato. We had sakae sushi too.. you know I could eat sushi everyday.. I’m so fricken addicted to sushi now.. too bad they’re expensive.

Well gonna watch Charmed now. Mortgages..

Remakes Suck

Posted by Tany | Daily Life, Health & Beauty, Movies & DVD, Random | Monday 25 January 2010 7:57 am

Self explanatory.

I hate remakes. Last week I watched “Children of the Corn“, which is the TV remake of the classic “Children of the Corn” (1984), a story based on Stephen King’s short story. I love the original. I thought John Franklin was chillingly disturbing as Isaac and Courtney Gains was awesome as Malachai. The story is also not bad.. I mean it’s watchable. I like it despite all the bad reviews from others.

HOWEVER.. the TV remake? I don’t even have a word to describe it. I haven’t read the short story and they said it’s very faithful to the short story now.. the original one was modified a bit, like for example they added the diner scene where the kids kill the adults.. which I might add a brilliant scene as it’s chilling.. but the remake? It’s not there cuz it’s not from the short story.. all you see is a couple bickering for like a good ol’ 60% of the movie.. omg I felt like I want to grab the bitch and kill her myself.. then the guy. I CAN’T STAND THEM! Their acting failed miserably. The story is long and draggy.. it was pure boredom. Everything is a mess. I despise it. I want to burn it. I want to shoot myself.

However, the only thing I like is some of the effect.. which is nice, something I wanna learn how to do. That’s the only thing I like.. oh and the ending, where the bitch and the bastard dies.. it was like HALLELUJAH.. if they survive I would’ve ended up killing myself. Not really but close.

Anyways.. I’m beginning to really love Italian cone pizza. Feels like eating an ice cream but instead it’s a pizza. Really yummy too. I know I said I’m on a diet, but eh. Since I’ve been sick this past 3 days I’ve been binging. Anyone tried quick trim extreme burn? I heard it’s something Khloe Kardashian promote.. and well Khloe did lose some weight, but I doubt from this pills anyway but still.. urgh so many diet pills. I still need to register for gym.

Howling at the New Moon

Posted by Tany | Celebrity, Daily Life, Movies & DVD, Videos & YouTube | Sunday 15 November 2009 12:09 am

WARNING: This entry is suitable to be read while playing Shakira’s She-Wolf in the background. Awwwwuuuuu!

Nuffnang is having this contest that 30 lucky bloggers who gets picked will get to see “New Moon” premiere a day earlier than the rest of Malaysia. OMGZ I SO WANT!!11!!11!1!

Okay I’m not gonna fill this post with super-excited-omgz-Edward-Jacob-so-hawtz!!11-teenybopper post. We’ve seen too many of those. I’m just gonna get real about why I’m excited about New Moon.

I’ve never posted this in my blog, only on my facebook, but lo and behold… I present you, my own Twilight spoof.

Haha if you were from my Media Studies class, you would have already seen that. Our assignment was to localize a movie scene and me, being a Twifan suggested that our group to spoof/localize Twilight. Especially since the main actor really fit to play Edward! Haha. It was a fun shoot. It may look dumb to you, but that was the point. Bloopers in my facebook. We wanted it to look silly.

Since then, we always make fun of the main guy… with his now trademark sentence – “I’m soooooooooooooooooooooooo shining!”

And of course, for my graduation showcase, for my theme, I chose Twilight ;)

I still remember last year, around this time, my friends and I went for a camp at the outskirt of Melaka. After that, Claudia invited me to watch Twilight but I was way too tired to go, and could barely walk due to muscle cramps so I decided to pass. Little did I know that couple of months later, when the movie was out on DVD and I decided to download it that I’d instantly become obsessed with it.

So what’s so special about the upcoming New Moon? Beside the obvious reasons that Edward is oh-so-hot and suddenly Jacob gained super hot masculinity with that super hot bod (I mean, have you seen the trailer??? Jacob purposely took off his shirt..and somehow Edward would to later? Oh come on! Battle of body, anyone?)… I think the story is what captured me the first. I was always a fan of Robert Pattinson since Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire… but the story is more like my ‘fantasy’.. this forbidden love thing between human and vampire.. oh come, like you’ve never fantasized being with Lestat or Louis (Tom Cruise or Stuart Townsend & Brad Pit) from Interview with the Vampire and Queen of the Damned and now in New Moon, a love triangle between Jacob, Bella and Edward…. tell me if you don’t feel somewhat an adrenaline rush about it. It’s always exciting to fantasize about having 2 hot guys (a vampire and a werewolf, haha…) fighting over you. Except I’m not that lucky.

That reminds me, I have yet to read the books — well, more like audio books that I downloaded. I’ve read like half of Twilight before I got extremely busy last semester, and the book is SO MUCH BETTER. However, I prefer watching the movie first before reading the books because then I can imagine what the characters look like as I read. I’ll finish reading listening to them after all the graduation stuff is over in December.

Another exciting part is DAKOTA FANNING. I mean seriously, Dakota? It feels as if it was only yesterday I watched her in The Cat in the Hat, I am Sam, Hide and Seek etc where she’s just this cute 10 year old who talks and act like a full grown adult. I remember watching her on Oprah and she knitted her something… I can’t remember if it was a sweater or a scarf. SERIOUSLY? A 10 year old who can knit?? Geez louise. It’s gonna be interesting to see her a bit grown up in this movie.

Before I end this entry, I leave you with this youtube video of a famous Twilight spoof that I love oh-so-much by Evil Iguana Productions! Haha, because of this spoof, I am now a big fan of EIP Productions and also Craig and Allen. They’re both two funny guys in youtube. Of course, not forgetting, “Movies in Minutes” Twilight spoof by none other than Ryan Higa aka nigahiga! Haha, another one of the funniest people in youtube ;)

Oh and I so wish I can get that premiere tickets to watch this, even though it’s only a day earlier but it makes a special difference to be able to enjoy it first with just 29 other winners before the rest of Malaysia.

Wait, do you think I’d leave without posting Ryan Higa’s funniest New Moon spoof in his “Movies in Minutes” collection? Haha, no way!

Happy Halloween 2009!

Happy Halloween!

I didn’t have much fun this halloween. Last Friday I went to college, then went to the mall cuz my friend wants to use my laptop then got back at almost 10 pm and fell asleep cuz I’ve been up for 2 days T_T Woke up at 3-something am and watched horror movies. Started with Return of the Living Dead 2.. that movie is a joke. I LOVED Return of the Living Dead.. but in part 2, the 2 main characters/actors are back…but part 2 is more like a remake of part 1, but different supporting characters, and quite different stories.. yet same two main actors and exactly like in part 1.. except in part 2 they tried to make the movie funny, and the characters all goofy… epic fail I tell you T_T Then I watched PARANORMAL ACTIVITY. This movie is very much hyped about currently. I downloaded the screener copy that was shown in 2007 and it has a different ending than theatrical one..The movie is CHILLING, which is unexpected. The original ending is SO MUCH better than theatrical.

I have a cold. It was raining extremely heavily yesterday’s morning.

I bought some candies for halloween… I’m never eating atomic fireball candy every again in my life. It’s fucking torture. I still have one more though.. gonna try and eat it and see how long I can last with that candy in my mouth. Good candy to play a prank on people who have never tasted it. I also bought some other expensive candies and lollies and I feel sick eating them.

PR assignment is fucking done! God, one burden is out of the way. Now I can concentrate on shooting, studying for PR exam and the showcase.

I don’t have much to blog about, so I’m gonna rest or watch a movie.

Suxx

Posted by Tany | Daily Life, Movies & DVD, Random | Friday 25 September 2009 3:23 pm

Blah. I hate my life. I wish I could just sit at a corner and just die.

Anyways. I saw Dead Snow 2 days ago. It was awesome. Everything was predictable though so I wasn’t scared at all, nothing shocked me however I absolutely love at how gory the movie is. Ripped limbs, intestines..gallons of blood… NAZI zombies…absolutely awesome. I still prefer the old fashioned zombie though.. where they walk slow, and dumb as hell at first and only looks for human flesh or brain instead of the nazi zombie where they act just like human, only stronger and well.. with rotten decomposed body. I still think Night of the Living Dead to be the best classic of zombie. There’s nothing scarier than being trapped and seeing dead bodies coming back to life… basically, the good ol’ zombie apocalypse.

Right after that, I watched The Mist on tv.. oh, such an awesome movie. Now, this movie managed to make me interested in it, made me feel the darkness, the horror.. actually managed to make me feel scared a bit.. I was so into it. Awesome cinematography that captures the horror of the trapped people, excellent story, excellent acting.. that preacher woman annoys the devil out of me, and it was such a pleasure to see her get shot.

SPOILER

I however hated the ending with passion. It was so disappointing. I was hoping the brave people would survive after they tried so hard to escape..but I did not expect at all, that the guy would kill ALL of them.. even his cute son, but before the creature managed to eat him up, he was saved! ARGH! To think that if only he had waited just a short while, ALL of them could be saved is just so fricken disappointing. I was so pissed.

END OF SPOILER

But then I saw it was based from a book.. and I saw who the author is.. Stephen King. No wonder the title sounds familiar, I might have seen the book somewhere before. Stephen King is an incredible author. Now, if The Mist managed to scare me, make me feel the horror, fear the creature, pity the characters, gets annoyed at the characters, you know that’s a damn good movie/story.

Other than the ending, the CGI was a bit too obvious at some part. I just downloaded the movie. Surprisingly it only took around 3 hours or so … which is shocking since I”m in Ipoh and usually the net is shitty, especially for torrents.

Wow this site has fulfillment services. It’s something like you put your brand logo, name etc on everything like packaging box, envelope.. if you have a business, this is something you need to make your company stand out. I wish I can open my own business, so I can get money… so I can buy whatever I want.

Wah Wah Wah

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life, Movies & DVD | Wednesday 16 September 2009 1:29 am

I’m sorry I haven’t blogged in a while.

Things has been so-so. Ramadhan is almost ending and in just few days, prolly Sunday or Monday, it’s Eid celebration already.. Things hasn’t been so great at college. I found out I have to delay my graduation for one semester because I have to take one more elective and they only offer 1 elective this semester and I need to take two. And instead of taking visual communication and Intro to DTP, I’m friggin stuck with Public Relations. A lot of reading and understanding to do , argh. I hate that. At least I’m not stuck with marketing or consumer behavior which is good because I do like PR, I just hate reading and exam. However, even though I have to come back for one elective subject next semester, I’m given special exception to still do the graduation showcase this year, and still finish in time before the convocation so it’s all still good… I guess. I hope. I’m still with my batch. I just wish I’d get out of there sooner instead of still lingering for another semester. I was really hoping to be done by this year :(

If I didn’t have to take PR this sem, I would be so free with no class at all :( Last Monday I had a good long 3 hours chat with my lecturer on my final project, and we talked ALOT.. from ideas to dead bodies to Sept 11 jumpers to dead animals etc.. good thing my lecturer and I have those interest in common. I went to PR class after that.. I’m SO GLAD it’s not with mass comm students because they’re now in a different faculty of their own.. but yeah, I’m with the advertising students so half of them are familiar faces. Even though I’m the only VA, at least I’m not a lonely VA. The lecturer scared me a bit at first. As soon as she entered the class, she was pissed about something and acted like she had a stick up her ass but later she loosen up and looked nice and friendly.

I was a complete blur in class :\ How am I gonna survive PR exam?

So what I’m gonna do this semester is to watch A LOT of movies to get some ideas on what to do for my final project.. I have downloaded like 7 movies in 2 days..

Kickin’ It Old School
Bring It On: Fight to the Finish
Wieners
Year One
Bruno
Bad Taste
Deadgirl

Kickin’ It Old School is so funny.. I LOVE Bobby Lee and Jamie Kennedy… Bring It On: Fight to the Finish wasn’t bad actually. I thought it’s just the same ol’ boring cheerleading movie like the previous Bring It On’s, but it’s actually quite okay.. just that I still think the very first Bring It On was the best and will remain the best. Wieners is also quite funny. I watched it on HBO, however I’m not fond with some disgusting scenes. I haven’t watched the rest that I downloaded. I have however just watched I Love You, Man and it’s quite cool :D Not a big laugh material, but I still like it.

I’m downloading Suspiria, The Shining and Dead Snow… I heard about Dead Snow from my ex lecturer.. he said it’s an awesome (nazi) zombie movie so can’t wait to watch it. Well I’m gonna go watch Bad Taste now and then sleep. Next week is one week holiday, can’t wait! Ciao.

PS: RIP Patrick Swayze

More updates + movies

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life, Movies & DVD | Friday 14 August 2009 12:23 am

I can’t believe week 13 is ending and fuck, week 14 next… last week for this semester. I still feel like we just started this semester. I have never been this busy ever. And I can’t believe I still have 3 projects to edit when we’re supposed to be finalizing it by now AND also still has one scene to shoot, due to delays. Can’t believe some problems happening now, like at the last minute when next week is the final assessment week.

Anyways today was final presentation day for research methodology class and I was the first. I was nervous as hell but since the emo lecturer wasn’t there, I was less nervous thank god. I stuttered a lot, wtf. Oh well I don’t care anymore. As long as it’s over, and I pass it, I’m fine even though I really want an A, but oh well whatever.

Oh yeah, my internet has been good lately, so I took the opportunity to download movies. And in the course of 5 days I downloaded like .. 15 movies O_O Can’t believe that. Usually it would take me at least a day to download a movie, not like 3 or 4 movies a day because they block torrent so the speed is usually less no matter how many seeders you are connected to. So far I downloaded:

- Little Britain USA
- Amityville Horror (1979)
- Amityville II: The Possession
- Fight Club
- Bundy: A Legacy of Evil
- Charlie & The Chocolate Factory
- Heavyweights
- Major Payne
- The Haunting in Connecticut
- Race to Witch Mountain
- Trilogy of Terror II
- The Unborn
- Newsies
- Lesbian Vampire Killers
- I Love You Man

I forgot to mention that when I was sick couple of weeks ago, I also bought this DVD that has like almost all of the Michael Jackson’s stuff that they’re re-releasing now like his video collections DVD, then his Moonwalker movie, live concert in Bucharest etc I think like 8 DVD in one.. couldn’t pass up the chance. Quality is not bad, so RM20 was worth it instead of RM8 for each dvd.

Can’t wait for this week to be over.. I have a lot to watch to kill time :D

Well I better be working on the assignments and projects now. Toodles.

External HDD

Posted by Tany | Daily Life, Health & Beauty, Movies & DVD | Monday 3 August 2009 12:57 am

I FINALLY have my 1 TB external HDD. YAY! I got a Seagate at RM319 and i was contemplating whether to get Buffalo instead at RM320, but I didn’t care anymore. I was getting a headache from all the search. There weren’t THAT many people as it usually is on Friday, maybe because people are scared about the h1n1. I saw lots of people wearing face masks too. So other than an external HDD, I got myself a new mouse for Rm30, and a new microSDHC card for my nintendo ds. I wanted laptop cooler and a new laptop bag, but i got sick of searching, and I didn’t have that much money left either so I figured I’ll get the laptop cooler at later time..

I have SO MUCH things left to do.. I still have 2 documentaries to shoot, 3 documentaries to edit, 2 final assignment proposal/reports to do, and we have less than 3 weeks left for this semester and we’re already having our final assessment next week for research class. I’m scared. I have no idea what to expect or do.

On Friday I downloaded “The Haunting in Connecticut” and “Race to Witch Mountain“… Haunting was okay.. but typical haunting movie, nothing special. Not that scary either. Horror movies are just the same nowadays.. don’t like them. I’m watching Race to Witch mountain now and hmmm.. I don’t know.. don’t feel any connection to the old witch mountain series. Again, too much on special effect. I prefer the original classic. This new one don’t feel much of family movie.. or fun movie like the orignal was. Oh well. Remakes are always bad anyway. But ‘race’ is not a remake actually.. it’s completely a new story. No connection between the kids.. they’re not fun.. cuz they’re serious and looks like they have sticks up their arse..

Oh! I also watched “The Amityville Horror II: The Possession” this morning. OMG, when I watched The Amityville Horror 2005 remake, I keep thinking I saw a movie where a guy actually shot his whole family.. and since Amityville Horror is actually about the Lutzes instead of the original DeFeo case, it’s been bothering me for YEARS trying to think what movie I saw that resembles DeFeo murder case.. I just keep remembering a guy with a shotgun, in the amityville house with windows that won’t break… FINALLY after 4 years I got my answer.. what I saw what part II, where the kid got possessed and shot his whole family. God. I rented too many horror movies back when I was a kid that I can’t remember what movies I saw. I don’t remember I rented part II at all… most probably because back then, I didn’t know anything about the amityville case and the DeFeo murder case.. I do remember I watched Amityville: Dollhouse though.. and probably one more out of 6 or 7 parts series? I don’t know.

Oh you interested in metal tiles? Check out the link if you are!

Okay I have work to do.. I want a new tv. The silence of no tv is killing me. And I have a very bad stomach cramp since yesterday’s morning. :( I have a freelance work to do and finish by tonight, and hopefully I get paid enough to afford a new cheap tv.

Harry Potter & Half Blood Prince

Posted by Tany | Celebrity, Daily Life, Health & Beauty, Movies & DVD, Random | Thursday 16 July 2009 5:32 pm

I watched Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince!
It was t3h aw3someness!

I’m back with my tradition – watching HP on the first morning screening. I missed it last year because I had no one to go with. I saw the sneak peak yesterday on HBO and the clips looked awesome so no matter what I wanted to see it today. So I booked the ticket online and at the time I booked it, all the back seats were taken, there was only 2 seats left on the 4th row from the back I think but today the whole row behind me was empty, wtf. Prolly only a few seats were taken but the rest? EMPTY. Wtf. But nevermind, I had a perfect seat, right in the center. Not too far back, not too front. And yeah I went alone.

The movie itself was awesome and…the word I long to say – satisfying. HP has been quite a disappointment for me since Prisoner of Azkaban (3rd one). I’ve always felt that they left out the ‘magical’ world of HP and just concentrate on the plot and darkness. But I’m so glad that the 6th one is damn satisfying for me. It has all the elements that made the 1st and 2nd to be great, in my opinion.

Okay, what’s so satisfying? It has the magical element. One special thing about HP is the magical world. They brought back the magic of HP’s world. They ignored this before after the 2nd one. The first half of the movie is more relaxed. That’s what I like. Sure there’s some dark moment but it doesn’t get intense until the next half of it. It’s FUNNY! Previous HP has been — well dark. Too dark. But glad this one they included some funny scenes. Then quidditch! :D What else.. oh yeah, expect some funny ‘romance’ scene because hey, they are growing up. Hormones kicking in.

They included very intense moment. Trust me, one scene made everyone jumped in their seat, screaming. Then they included sad moment. Very sad. At the end, they leave you wanting for more of it.. so which means I can’t wait for the next movie. Glad they’re making the final one into 2 parts.

Oh yeah, the movie is pure orgasmic. Previously, only the 2nd and 4th one was pure orgasmic for me because of Tom Riddle’s evilness and death (in 2nd) and Cedric Diggory’s death (in 4th).. but this one — finally Draco gets lots of screen time as he’s now part of the plot so yeah, pure orgasmic. Especially how evil he looks in this one. Totally hot. I won’t spoil any scene for you though.

Oh and I really love the kid and the guy who played young Tom Riddle. The teenage Tom Riddle is perfect at portraying Tom. He’s like so innocent looking yet so very evil, like you can feel his ‘evil’ from his look.. like ‘The Omen’ movie. I actually felt creeped out watching the teenage Tom Riddle.

So yeah, Half Blood Prince did not leave me somehow unsatisfied like the previous 3 films, so it was great. I have to admit, I’ve only read halfway through the 6th book and still haven’t touched the 7th book. I listened to a few chapters yesterday (Half Blood Prince’s audio book) before I fell asleep though. I should start listening again, then listen to audio book 7. I’m lazy to read books.

Draco Malfoy

PURE ORGASMIC I TELL YOU
Nothing better than evil guy in all black suit.
Is it getting hot in here?

Sorry I have a thing for bad boys. Anyways. On totally different topic, I need new face skin careedfa. Ones I’ve been using don’t really work anymore. I’m wondering if Dr. Murad is good? I’ve heard good things about the product but I don’t know.. I can’t easily trust any brands nowadays.

Next movie I can’t wait to watch: The Twilight Saga: New Moon.
Saw the poster of it on my way out of the cinema — hot Edward Cullen and hot Jacob Black (so glad they make his hair short now).. can’t get any better than that. *fangirl mode* But that’s not until November 27th. :(
