I realised I haven't updated for eons. Just tired after work. Plus meetings after work, movie outings, renewed interest in maple story together with live telecast of French Open has kinda kept me off the Internet and MSN the past few weeks.

This is actually a rather old post. Wrote it in Wed but blogger wasn’t being cooperative... It didn't let me blog about Da Vinci Code.

Caught Da Vinci Code with Fran earlier… Well, there are instances where I think the pen is mightier than the sword. This was one of it. Perhaps certain things are just more exciting when you read about it happening instead of watching it. Or maybe words just make certain scenes sound better. Maybe it was due to anticipation, thus, the movie felt a little flat. There was no climax. Just like telling a story.

Also, the movie missed out on some explanation, changing a bit of the details here and there. Went for the movie despite the not so good reviews. It was ok I guess. I didn’t really regret because I felt as if I was transported to Europe for 2.5 hours, getting glimpse of the Louvre and other sights.

As for the controversial storyline… well… despite all the protests and calls to ban the film, I would put it down to a work of fiction, by an over-imaginative author, who can put one and one together to make three. Honestly, if people cannot discern between fact and fiction, and as a result, lose faith in their religion after watching the show, it just illustrates that they aren’t really in it.

Hmmm.. I wanna watch XMen 3… and Over the Hedge! Oh… and there’s Pirates 3. I didn’t catch 2.. but 3 looks exciting. Btw, as we were waiting for the movie to start, they showed a trailer for the new James Bond movie. Have to say that I think that Pierce Brosnan looks so much better compared to the new 007. But we shall see…

So many movies.. so little time! Spent Saturday slacking. Was supposed to either go cyclig with Angie or catch a concert with Sharon. Sad to say, I didn't do both... woke up at 1 plus and decided not to go cycling. and I kinda slacked the day away...

It's time to sleep...
