Avatar (3D)

I loved this movie!!
The CG was fantastic!
And I watched in in 3D.
Another great work by James Cameron.

Cast: Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Michelle Rodriguez, Sigourney Weaver
Sypnopsis taken from Cathay Website:
AVATAR, a live action film with a new generation of special effects, takes us to a spectacular new world beyond our imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption and discovery, ultimately leading a heroic battle to save a civilization. The film was first conceived by Cameron 14 years ago, when the means to realize his vision did not yet exist. Now, after four years of actual production work, AVATAR delivers a fully immersive cinematic experience of a new kind, where the revolutionary technology invented to make the film, disappears into the emotion of the characters and the sweep of the story.

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus

The cast couldn't save the movie.
I fell asleep halfway through the story.
I expected more from it, but at the end,
I still couldn't make head and tail of what the movie is all about.

Cast: Heath Leger, Johnny Depp, Judd Law, Colin Farrell (all acting the same person)
Synopsis taken from Cathay website:

Parnassus had been able to guide the imagination of others through a deal with the Devil, who now comes to collect on the arrangement, targeting the doctor's daughter, Valentina. The troupe, which is joined by a mysterious outsider named Tony, embark through parallel worlds to rescue the girl.

Paradise Inn @ 313 (29/Jan/2010)

Met up with Nana and Junie for dinner at Paradise Inn @ 313.
What can I say?
The food was ok but the service really needed improvement.
One of the waiter lost grip of the hot pot of soup and
the whole pot just splattered on the table and onto Nana, Junie and me.
It was really messy and terrible. Nana got slightly scalded on her arm,
part of our clothes were also splattered with the hot soup.
Nana's iphone and my camera were not spared..
Luckily nobody was badly hurt and nothing was really ruined.
All these happened and the management did nothing to apologised or whatsoever.
The waiter and another gal came and apologised a few times, but all these while,
we did not receive a word of apology from the managment.
We were even asked to change table 2 times.
Is it very hard for the management to come to our table and say "Sorry"?
Hmm....
