On the eve of the Chong Yang Festival in 10th century Tang Dynasty, the Imperial family comprising the Emperor (Chow Yun Fat), the Empress (Gong Li), the Crown Prince and the second son Prince Jai (Jay Chou) are embroiled in a familial war entailing passion, treachery, treason and betrayal, resulting in a bloody rebellion and an end to the empire.
BLOODY good show, and i mean BLOODY! pls people, when watching, do not focus on the storyline. this is mr yimou's film! if you focus too much on the storyline, you'll be disappointed! right, i shall 'promote' the show, even though it's 4 days late?
i went vivo today, spent my 2006 xmas watching prince jai so close up on the screen i could spot his pimple! >.< teehee (:
as i was saying, do not focus too much on the storyline, because basically, the storyline may seem complicating, but it's actually rather simple! focus on the BEAUTILFUL SETTINGS & PROPS! mygod, BLOODY BEAUTIFUL FILM ! no wonder my dad told me yimou's films are artsy! yes i know, kuku agn, i was nvr exposed to mr yimou's films before! LOL!
so, in my opinion, i feel that the show dedicated much of itself to gong li. yesh (: and emperor's a sick & violent man! prince jai is really filial, but sadly his golden-armoured troops is a failure! and supposedly crown prince is gay-looking, but at certain times, i must really praise his acting skills. the youngest prince. so ignorant, and URGH! cant stand emperor that sick shit. METAL BELT! are you nuts?! imperial doc's daughter; really great acting skills. ultimately, gong li's darn power! try acting trembling and all.. PRO! jielun improved his acting skills. it's much better than intial D, where he looked so awkward at times on screen!
beautiful beautiful beautiful film! i love prince jai's coat! dark blue with all the detailed embroideries! and i wish i own what gong li wore on the sets! mind you, what gong li had to wear on the set were so gold-ish and there were TONS of them somemore! the hairpins and stuffs! AHH, beautiful! and it irks me to think of the emperor. sick! i had to endure the sounds of whipping and stabbing and slashing. and many a times, blood splashed literary on almost every corner, while pools of blood soaked the grounds!!!! VIOLENCE & GORE; shd be rated NC-16!
i pity prince jai & his troops. stupid emperor; bloody murderer! humph! stupid emperor got powerful and skillful troops. GAH! and i LOVE the SHIELDS ! the very heavy(seems to be) shields that many men had to lift up!
SEE, i've finish rambling about the CURSE OF THE GOLDEN FLOWER, and gong li is awesome!
so, go catch the show, and dont complain the show's not that good, cos ure supposed to appreciate the artsy settings & props instead!
hello! am lazy hahaha, but i'll use pictures do the work again (:

i think i was bloody kuku. maybe you cant see it in the pic, but there's so many of them, it felt like as if i was inside discovery channel.. my cousins were like 'HUH! you nvr see before!' while i was sooooo amazed!
i dunno why, but it reminds me of mr weasley's flying car..

VERY FUN @ perak as usual! and xue yee is so cute!! and i tried DRIVING there! and so happy, i forgot to learn motorbiking! hai.. and my mum's motorbiking skills were so rusty, she fell down thrice, and once i was with her. she was not at all injured with 3 falls, while i got my flesh cut and it hang loosely. a dangling piece of flesh. of cos pain, so many blue-black! and the kids they play in the water. yong lin darn funny. drank so much of the water, and mind you, CONTAMINATE with shit passed out by the stinky oxen. hahahahah! gross man. and im done now with this entry (:
hello :D got back from KOREA yst ! a 8D6N trip, and had reached Singapore at 11.05pm when the plane touched down at changi airport! home swt home at near 12.30pm (: dad & uncle william picked us up! EXTREMELY EXHAUSTED, but still had a conver with welwel followed by truddy & pris! i ended up on the phone till 4+, so tada! today woke up at 3pm, LOL!
i rushed to westmall's sembawang cd shop today. CRAP, where the hell is that jielun cd that's supposedly out today?! singapore's slow. otherwise it's that cd shop ):
and i shall now blog about my eventful trip whereby the meals are too kimchi-ish for my liking!
the 5hrs+ flight bought my siblngs, mum & i to seoul, which we only stayed for a day before heading for jeju. come to think about it, i cant really recall everything in order..! but there are some very significant places! like the bear museum, the kimchi school, the water theme park?, the funny lady guide at some da chang jin shooting place, the qiu tian de tong hua's enxi's hse, TONS of bae yong joon (!!!!) pictures everywhere, the snowing, the skiing, a super nice hotel, the lotte world and everland! (:
i found the bear museum really very interesting..
in the middle: GHANDHI!
Abraham Lincoln & Napoleon!
The Last Supper!!
the tiniest bear at 4.5mm!
THE BEATLES (:
LOL, there's more but i cant take up too much memory space. there's marilyn monroe, statue of 'the thinker', titanic (!!!!), disneyland, princess hours, elvis, and not to forget the funniest-MONA LISA. the mona lisa was a joker, seriously! the bear representing mona lisa had only a few strands of hair, thus, making the mona lisa bear looked like it desperately needed some kind of yun nan haircare treatment >.< and there's also the most expensive bear clothed in everything Louis Vuitton! pretty, classy bear!
speaking of the branded, it reminds me of that beautiful sunglass i saw at shinsegae mall in Korea! it's Salvatore Ferragamo's! my god, it's so uniquely designed, and i love how it makes the wearer look stylish without trying too hard! (: but guess i cant have it, considering it's lovely pricing of S$400-500! just one sunglass! o.O
and back to korea; no one will leave out the oh-so-famous kimchi (that seriously irritates my senses)
bros & mum @ KIMCHI SCH, XP
ALL the goodness(!!!!) in kimchi.
the process! (x
anddd.. the kimchi i made!
aft this whole kimchi thing, we were told to either keep it for consumption or leave it on the table so that they will be collected, and then donated to a nearby orphanage. for kimchi-haters like me would naturally NOT want to consume the nasty thing. and one kimchi for charity! (:
for the young at heart, their theme parks were a blast! F-U-N, but we were only allowed a limited timing for exploring the entire theme parks! not enough time ): with playtime, we made new friends; jeremy and gladys. luckily there's companions! otherwise i might have to miss out the rides in the theme park! felt very bad for the new friends about the ticketing issue.. wahh, their service(ticketing) abit.. complicatingly annoying? hai, shdnt have bothered bout the tix. mum tried to use the tix machine and she said she ended having her money gobbled up by the machine..! and no one seems to be able to help to solve the ticketing mystery! so.. the ticketing mystery is still unknown.. -.-!
and ever seen a cat species produced by the cross-breeding of a lion & tiger, otherwise known as L-I-G-E-R ?
this is the unknown LIGER; huge & ferocious with blood-stained teeth!
aww(x
to end off this post..
dangling decor.. yuck?
lame, lame..
see what reflections, fire & camera can do (:
lengthy post, and for those who wants to visit korea: if you dont mind eating meat for EVERY SINGLE meal(with the plates and plates of kimchi), and dont mind being total alien-ish to the country & language (they dont understand eng), go ahead, but im not disencouraging tours to korea, LOL, just finds it tormenting at times(like the ticketing issue!!!!). the people there spits alot on the grounds from my observation..! unlike singapore, they dont apologise for painful bumpings into you. yet it's a good experience, gd sight-seeing, and urm.. gd for bae yong joon fans..? yea, that's about it!
