Spiderman 3 – (screening in cinema now)
As well as the challenge that Spiderman faces from the Sandman — he learns of a connection with the murder of his Uncle Ben — a mysterious black substance has turned his Spiderman suit black. It brings forth a darker side of Parker and Spidey that nobody has seen before when he is conveniently infested with an alien parasite. Indeed, the central theme of the film is that even superheroes can have a dark side.
The problem is that even Spiderman’s “evil†side is still hopelessly mild-mannered. We are shown a montage of his sub-Mr Hyde depravities. His hair droops over one eye; he swaggers along the street; he flirts with passers-by; his girl ditches him; and he makes an ass of himself in a nightclub. In short, he behaves like a textbook drunk on any given Saturday night.
A horrifying glimpse into the unspeakable pit of the human soul this is not– source
I would highly recommend this movie. Some claimed that there is not much fighting going on. Halo…. this is not Jet Li kungfu movie, ok. This is Spiderman. The guy that hangs around tall building and goes web swinging.
Pirates of the Caribbean – (Opening nationwide on 25th May)
I did not watch Part 1 or 2 and don’t intend to watch part 3 cos I’m saving up for …..
Fantastic 4 and Harry Potter! – (coming soon in June) I can’t wait 😀
Shrek 3 – (coming soon in June)
Well, not my type of movie. Good thing Hubby volunter to watch it with my 2 eldest. Hopefully the Carnival Sales is still on at that time.
Looks like all the good movie is lining up in June. Gotta mark my calendar and start saving from now on!

I saw Spiderman last weekend. It was good, but a little over-rated I thought.
And yes, Harry Potter is definitely on my list too!! 🙂
The Queen says: Yea, agreed on the over-rated thing. Heard that Shrek 3 is over taking Spidey in blockbuster listing. That is even more over-rated! urghh… I can’t stand that green creature.

TV vs cinema? Good to know that cinema has come alive again after been beated to death by vieotape. Back to the good old days 🙂
The Queen says: I like the surround sound + companies + popcorn + coke + total darkness = family bonding. Anyway, total darkness is good for patoh’ing (courting) also la.

ooo yes yes, Pirates and Harry Potter! much as I liked Spidey 3, I think Pirates might out-do it in box office. Johnny Depp is such a swooner!

Hey, you sure you like spidey3?
I’m a spiderman fans but hack, episode 3 was a real turn down for me. Too much funny act in the storylines… “the girl you date was hanging at the skycrapper and all you did is take photo and introduce yourself to her father?”

Hey Queen,
Having a LCD TV at home is good for ur kids. At least LCD doesn’t flicker and is less harmful for your juniors’ eyes.
Now the prices of the LCD TVs drop till lao sai… It’s almost dirt cheap for a 32″ at RM3800! When I bought mine 2.5 yrs ago, it cost me close to RM 9000!!! (which is equivalent of SG$4K) -_-” Maybe this can make u feel better for choosing an LCD now… =P
