Thursday, November 29, 2012. Playlist: Songs From The Flicks. This playlist was actually inspired by a snippet from RTHK's 25th Anniversary Retrospective, that retrotvb was kind enough to share around here. After I took way too long to translate the show (heheh, sorry about that retrotvb! 1 "The Days Back Then"- Leslie Cheung "A Better Tomorrow". 2 "Like An Old Friend Coming To Visit" - Anita Mui "The Twin Bracelets". 3 "Rouge" - Anita Mui "Rouge". Now that's emotional. Anita is one of those few arti...

Thursday, February 17, 2011. Behind the Banner: History. So you may have been wondering for some time now - who are the pretty women and dashingly handsome men that make up your banner? Well, that's for me to know and for you to find out. Nah, I'm just kidding. I'd be happy to tell you - these were all snapshots that I took from videos featuring these artists so let's get the cat out of the bag and on with the show! No 1 - Anita Mui. No 2 - Elvina Kong. Or from those 2 old TVB series' ( From Act to Act.

Thursday, November 25, 2010. The Rise and Fall of Cantopop. While surfing around on the Internet I’ve read some remarks about Cantopop. That would make the typical Cantopop fan fume. But I think you could do without the angry insult mode like some netizens in certain forums. You’re going to judge a book by its cover, even though nobody told you to. Gone too soon: Leslie Cheung, Anita Mui, Danny Chan. One of Cantopop’s greatest lyricists, James Wong. Even with talent, I doubt G.E.M could save the ...There...

Tuesday, May 12, 2015. KUNDO: AGE OF THE RAMPANT. Corea del Sur, 2014. Kundo es una epica cinta de acción que tiene en su empaque un hibrido del Wu Xia mas clasico hongkones como el estilo de western oriental que puso en boga el mismisimo Tarantino, todo llevado con absoluta pulcritud construyendo una pelicula que debo reconocer me costo enganchar pero que poco a poco va creciendo hasta un climax maravilloso como es la escena final, la batalla de los archienemigos. Un filme de acción epico con un fondo h...

Mestre Lee: abril 2008
http://granmestrelee.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
We all love Ennio Morricone. Miércoles, 2 de abril de 2008. La nostra feïna prèvia a aquesta xerrada era analitzar les webs dels ajuntaments de Barcelona. En el meu cas, em centraré en la web de la ciutat de Barcelona:. Per començar, ens trobem amb una primera plana totalment abarrotada d'informació, estructurada de forma una mica caòtica i que, en general, no facilitza gens la seva navegació. Les opcions per canviar d'idiomes (castellà i anglès, a part del català, per defecte) no estan a la vista. Com a...

Welcome to the Layer Cake.: May 2009

Welcome to the Layer Cake. A slice of film criticism . from some guy. Wednesday, May 27, 2009. McG's Terminator: Salvation (2009). For many action fans, the first two Terminator. Films remain the gold standard of action-oriented science fiction. Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. On the other hand, was an unfortunate money-making exercise which is best forgotten. Which brings us to the fourth film in the franchise, Terminator: Salvation. Unfortunately, the answer to that question is a resounding "No".
