David vs David & David A. is My Pick!

David "Baby Face" Archuleta VS David "Rocker" Cook.
So it's an American Idol finale with the top 2 who were erm... Much expected to be in the finale, it's a David vs David! And honestly, I love both of them. Although yea, I might put Jason Castro before David Cook, but I have to admit Jason wasn't as good, and he just looks like he doesn't care anymore...
I was hoping 8TV will play a live broadcast of the finale but was left disappointed. Maybe I just have to blame myself for not having Astro. But I caught all the actions on Youtube this morning and man I just have re-inject my love for the lovely David Archuleta!!! I know David Cook isn't an easy opponent, he's also very good. I was actually half getting bored of David A., who always sings like a teenage boy singer. Okay, well he is a teenage boy! But the finale... Wow... I couldn't agree less with the judges, David Archuleta wins the night!!!
First Round: He first sang Elton John's Don't Let the Sun Goes Down on Me.

I never liked Elton John, but I was like blushing listening to David singing this song! I felt so touched, for some unknown reason!!! It was such a brilliant performance!
Second Round: In this Moment, a song David picked from their song-writing competition.

Too cheesy for me... Can't take it!
Third Round: David sang Imagine again! I love him singing that song!

If I'm not mistaken, this time he sang it with a different arrangement and style compared to the first time he sang it. And needless to say, it was better than the first time!!!
I love you David Archuleta!!!
If I'm now in the States, I would be voting hundreds votes for you!
Let's pray that 'David Archuleta' will be read out as the name of the winner tonight!!!
Finger cross!

Yeah! Kristy Lee Cook is OUT!!!

Gone Baby Gone
It's Ben Affleck's directing debut, but the reason for me to go for the movie has nothing to do with this guy, ok? As much as I love his best pal Matt Damon, I never liked Ben, never!
I just thought this is the kinda movie I would like, and turned out yes I quite like it! The entire arrangement of the story was a bit draggy, but I love the twists and turns of the story, which was really brilliant! And you have Morgan Freeman who was as calm as he is, as good as he always is... You know what, although I hate Ben Affleck, I'm quite a fan of his little bro, Casey. I however think he doesn't suits the role so well. I don't know what's wrong, maybe it was the way he talks, but I'm not sure...
Escape From Huang Shi (Children of Huang Shi)
There are two simple reasons Escape From Huang Shi is a must watch movie for me... 1)Chow Yun Fatt, Michelle Yeoh and Jonathan Rhys Meyers. 2)It's a story based during the Nanking killing period, although I hate war movies, I'm always interested with the story of the Nanking killings.
BUT... I have to say it was a total disappointment. The beginning of the story was not too bad, it got me really excited. But then it became a bit corny as it progresses. It's like all very expected lor... Except for the fact that the main guy died in the end (Oopss... Am I not supposed to reveal that?). You see four people on the posters, but it is actually a movie about the main guy--George(Jonathan Rhys Meyers). It's all about him and how fabulous he is. I should be happy right? Since Bend it Like Beckham, he's been unforgettable to me. I think he is one of the cutiest actors. But he didn't impress me much in the movie. As the main guy, his acting wasn't really good. And probably because he is too much a cute actor, playing such role doesn't really, you know suits him. Maybe he just has to work a bit harder. Of course, it was so disappointing to see so little of the super handsome Chow Yun Fatt and our very own Michelle Yeoh. I think the production company simply just put their faces to attract audiences. I'm serious, we've all been conned! The other actress was actually the main girl in the movie, but she is very forgettable. No acting, not pretty, I don't even want to know what's her name! And I'm sorry, I've caught some audio failure and bad editing in the movie... What the???
Nah, not a good one... I really hope Chow Yun Fatt should pick his movies more carefully. Most of his Hollywood movies suck.
Meanwhile, here's last night's American Idol's performances... Of only the guys! Because like Simon said, the guys took the night!
First up, everyone and my favourite, David Archuleta with one of my favourite songs, When You Believe... It was sooooo damn GOOD!!!

And David Cook!

Then, we have Jason Castro, I didn't think it was very good lar, honestly...

AND.... YES! YES! YES!!! Congratulations and a job well done to all Americans for voting out Kristy Lee Cook!!!
I'm so happy! So happy!
Kristy Lee Cook is OUT!!!
Kristy Lee Cook is OUT!!!
Kristy Lee Cook is OUT!!!
Now, let's make sure the final two or three are all guys!!!

I Love David!!!

For some reasons, I've been sticking to the American Idol lately and like many others, I think this year's quality was pretty good! Many say it's the best so far, I can't say that cos I didn't really follow the previous ones.
Alright, that wasn't the reason I wanted to write this blog post! I'm here to tell you, especially those in the States, to vote for David Archuleta!!! He is cute, charming, and has a GREAT voice! Best thing is, he is only freaking 16!!! I love him! Love him! Love him! Just yesterday, he did another great job singing Robbie William's Angels. Check this out!

Of course, I also love Jason Castro, the guy with the locks! He is sooooo sweet and sometimes, he really can sing! Like yesterday, he sang Over the Rainbow and it was awesome!

I gotta say the guys are much more better than the girls this time! I love the other David too, David Cook, and then Michael Johns. The girls... I only like Brooke, but she's not that consistent. I HATE THAT CHRISTY LEE COOK! SHE IS NOTHING OTHER THAN A PRETTY FACE! SHE BETTA GET VOTED OUT THIS WEEK!!!
AND... I'm praying hard that a guy would win this one, because they bloody deserve it!
