some pretty interesting stuff happening lately, where do i begin?

well, lets start with the biggest event that got the whole world talking: the world cup, with the Germans just totally destroying the Portugese with a 3-1 victory, despite the Portugese side actually having more ball time. some interesting facts of the game courtesy of
livescore.com:



oh well, the finals between France & Italy is happening in slightly less than 4 hrs time, and i guess it would be a pretty interesting watching the Italians kick some Escargot-eating freaks' asses (hehe, i got a small wager on the Italians taking the cup).

ok, taking a break fm sports finally.. managed to catch quite a number of movies over the past week, starting with some Canto movie Recycle. At first i thought it was going to be some horror movie, but it ended up being some mind-fuck movie. as bad as that sounds, its actually not too bad. watch it if canto movies are ur thang..

next would be fast & furious: tokyo drift. all i can say is that jap chicks rock!! jus seeing them jappo babes' flash their bootays worth the 10 bucks! :D

ok, last one was the biggest release of the month: superman returns. i dunno it its just me but i felt that this superman kinda lacks something compared to the previous superman (ie Christopher Reeves). i mean, he's SUPERMAN for gawd's sake, shouldn't he be like more ermm.. larger than life? this time, he looks like a fa- ahem, i mean a guy who's in touch with his sensitive (ie feminine) side, who's lonely and unsure of himself (well, to give them some credit perhaps this was the way the director wanted to portray him since he's been away for 5 yrs chasing a home that wasn't there).

all in all it was a fun watch, especially since the effects for this one is much better - when superman flies, he looks like he's really flying, not like the old ones that u can see is just a scenery moving in the background. well, all i can say is heck, its superman. jus go out and watch it for old times' sake.
