OMG! It’s DGMB 1st Anniversary! It’s HAPPENING!!!
Apr 20th
Before I start…
Happy First Anniversary DGMBians…!!!!!!!!
So fast time flies and I just felt that it was just yesterday that I met the bunch of crazy peeeple of DGMBians. It was just a random thought and suggestion with Pamsong after the Narymama and YapThomas drama that we do a movie meet with bloggers. Thus came the plan of the first Blogger’s Movie Meet (BMM).
It has been a year now. The GMail ‘thread‘ is now already reaching 30,000 emails of correspondence. Isn’t that crazy? All that we have shared and all that we have gone through in this small family is all there. We have the infamous ‘tokkokthread‘ which everyone of us rant there daily… and I think we should revive TKT 3 Word thread…
So, this is us, the DGMBians, as how we are fondly known in the Nuffnang community. Don’t get me wrong when I say that people wants to join DGMB. It’s like a club that people wants to join, but we ain’t no club. We are just random people who happened to come together and happened to adopt the nickname of Definitely Gang, Maybe Bang to actually ‘bang‘ Innit with our outing post. Say “ahhhh… now I get it…” There is no such thing as exclusive or what… all are welcome… we are very nice wan and we don’t bite..
So here you go, the 1st Blogger’s Movie Meet.

Front Row: Cincauhangus, Pamsong, Michelle, Amy, Kelz, Narymama, Aronil, Joshua & Randy
Back Row: Yatz, me, HweiMing, Stanley, Royalshortness, Sheon, Dillon & Nigel

The Long Weekend
Mar 10th
Last Saturday and Sunday has got to be the longest weekend out. I practically clocked more than 24 hours away from home. The long weekend started great, ended great too.
Had to head back to office as there is some issue with 11thFloorOffice. The plan was to open up my system and let the 11thFloorOffice girl finish up the work. No. I had to wait till she finished then only I can leave.
The Girl arrived while I was in the midst of getting my work done. It has been a while since we had our long day outing. Last was, 2006? Wait, I think it was early 2007. Gah! Can’t remember.
Anyways, so late lunch was at Pepper Lunch. We had the Combo Cut Steak & Hamburger. The beef was so hard to chew!!! %#$%#@ But the hamburger was just fine. The bill came to RM 64. Crazy expensive for such lunch. The Girl vowed not to head back there, ever.

No prior plan on what to do was made. I went on with the simple, “Let’s see what we can do there” plan. Which is good. Don’t need to be sorry if any earlier plan didn’t work out.
Movie would be the best way to kill time. I opted for Marley & Me as there were a widespread of reviews on how good the movie is. Read Joshua’s review. I liked this movie. Shows how much we all need to plan for marriage and family. It is not easy to bring up a family, but with perseverance, a couple can strive on to build a wonderful family.

Still full from the late lunch, The Girl got a craving of tea. So we headed to Wong Kok Char Chan Theng. I must say, the setup of this place is very nice. Very very very very nice.

Midway, two plans came up. I need to head over to Sungai Wang to check out on phones and a birthday party to attend at Bangsar. Two of which I only realize while having my tea there at Wong Kok. Thanks goodness that I keep most “important” sms in my inbox, so that I will remember when I read my inbox.
Drove to Sungai Wang, did some scouting for Motorola V3i for my colleague and walked around for a bit.
Birthday girl wanted a chocolate cheese cake and I had to scout for it also. The things I do for my friends. Got it from Secret Recipe. Was about time to leave Sungai Wang for Bangsar and I faced a massive jam on the way out of the carpark. -_-

Took us more than one hour to reach Bangsar from Sungai Wang. Crazy! The jam was just massive lah. Gah! Reached D’Haven in Bangsar to join the others already there waiting. Hope you had a great time there Geralynn. And of course the cake also…

The night ended quick with a quick photo session. Drove The Girl back. Final plan was that to try her homemade coffee. Just to freshen me up before I drive back. Nope. Didn’t work. I slumped on the couch. Was a good sleep after a long day.
Woke up to a note on the table, left by The Girl.

I woke up pretty early on Sunday morning, with a very bad neckache. That’s to my super wonderful sleeping position on the couch. -_- The early morning was dreadful, hence, back to sleep. Woke up again just before noon. The Girl made the promised coffee and it was a good one. A powderful kick to start of the morning.

My turn to crave for dim sum, but it was just so-so only. Gah! I want good dim sum!

Work seems to be haunting me since the start of the weekend and it will not stop, even if it is Sunday. Sigh…

Finished up work and left The Girl’s place. Only to have met a hit and run accident, which I spent my whole afternoon helping the victim. Have to delegate work to my colleague during this ordeal.

What I said about work haunting me again? Gah! I need to put a stop on this matter. I need a better working equipments. A powerful handheld device which I can carry around and get my work done. Maybe a Nokia E71? Samsung Omnia? iPhone? or a Blackberry? Hmmm….
Spent the late afternoon at Starbucks SS2, online and getting my work done. The Boys decided to come up for dinner at Williams. Had Nasi Goreng Special with Two Types of Chicken. Yes, that’s the name of the dish.

The dinner was heavy. I can’t finish it. Jun came to the rescue.
I went back to Klang. Slept for a good 8 hours!

My Best Friend’s Girl Movie Date at Cineleisure

It is about (6) months since Pamsong and I organized Definitely Maybe Movie Date at Cineleisure where 16 never have met before bloggers came together for a casual movie outing. It was a great outing that today, they are known as DGMB as they called themselves the Definitely Gang, Maybe Bang. I personally would call the 16 now, a family to begin with…
So, cut the boring stuffs out and let me put forth the real deal which you are here for, obviously!
This movie date is being planned together again with the kick-ass lady Pamsong, as we decided, “oh well, let’s beat Nuffnang in getting bloggers to come for a movie, even if it is not free!!” heh.. okay, I made that up!

House Bunny is all about the boobs…
Oct 3rd
or so I thought. That’s all I have to say. Its all out to lure horny men to watch this movie.
I wonder how can they pass this movie for children above 13. It should be above 18.
Talk about banning concert of too sexy artist, I bet the censorship board was all made up of males who are so hook on this movie that they just sign the approval right after their internal preview without any question asked. That’s my assumption, don’t quote me! hahaha. Or maybe they lack the PAS youth wingers in the censorship board to approve the ban, which, of course we do not want them there!!
So, House Bunny. I thought it is gonna be a chic flick kinda movie. I was proved wrong when I am in the cinema right when the movie starts. But, it has a lil’ chic flick element with lots of booby actions… hahaha
What? See at least I’m honest…

House Bunny, as adapted from IMDB, is about Shelly, a Playboy bunny, is tossed out of the mansion, she has nowhere to go until she falls in with the sorority girls from Zeta Alpha Zeta. The members of the sorority – who also have got to be the seven most socially clueless women on the planet – are about to lose their house. They need a dose of what only the eternally bubbly Shelley can provide… but they will each learn on their own to stop pretending to be what others want them to be and start being themselves.

Shelley is being introduced to the Zetas…

Her first attempt to get attention from the students…

Make up lesson… Notice something here? Natalie is not wearing her back brace… why? forget?
Going to college…

Lepak at the park…

They even helped increase old men blood pressure at the old folks home…

Shelley did the Marilyn Monroe moment.. haha

The date that turned out to be…

The first ever Zeta’s party…

That’s it.. the ending celebration… They get to keep Zeta House…
I liked the movie. Humorous, Fun, Exciting, Sexy and Entertaining.
Oh the Boobs! I need to hurt somebody right now! Hmm.. any right candidate???
YapRating is on 8/10 for a comedy movie.
pics from IMDB too…
Eagle Eye @ GSC One Utama
Sep 30th
First and foremost, thanks to Edmund and Gabriel of Absolut Pitch for offering me three tickets to catch this wonderful movie. Absolut Pitch is a company that does costume designs and they all range of costumes from kinky outfit (heh) to any anime cosplay costume to even Iron Man! Their inventory, endless. You will get to know about them soon.
The other two tickets, I got Pam and Ah Beng Beng *grins* to come along…
Oh, Beng and I didn’t get to play tootsie together again.. cause we were separated by one level away. hahaha -_- Okay, don’t judge something you think it is.. I’m still straight.. sometimes, need to sway a little for some fun.. -_-

Now, this movie rocks my socks! Period.

Somehow, it is has some similarity towards Terminator. Remember how Terminator was conceptualized over the plot of a “computer” that has outsmart itself and decides to takes its own judgment on the human race?
Yes, Eagle Eye has the same kinda plot, but with much better effects and much more real in the sense of the latest technologies and what not.
Definitely one of the must watch movie alongside with Dark Knight. I don’t know which one to rate higher, but heck… Give it a go!
The action starts when someone starts running, and that keeps the adrenaline pumping!
YapRating @ 8.5/10
(oh me god, I’ve just created a new term. YapRating. Wonder what’s next?
Punggok Rindukan Bulan Opens Today
Sep 25th
About one month ago, I was invited by Da Huang Pictures to the press screening of Punggok Rindukan Bulan, which directly translate to “Owl Misses the Moon” in English. The screening title in English is “This Longing”.

This film about a boy, barely in secondary school, Sidi and his father Adman, who both unknowingly cope with the sudden absence of a key female figure in their life. Set in the border town of Johor Bahru, Malaysia. This film also features a building which is being set to be demolished right after this filming.

I find this film very special. If you are into alternative films, then give this a try. You might not like it 100% but maybe 70%. You need to appreciate films like this to really enjoy it. Not many would like it tho, as said by the Producer Amir Muhammad. It is a very niche market this film is targeting.

It is a lil bit slow throughout the whole duration of 1 1/2 hours of the film. You will be brought from the day how Sidi (Saeful) faced with the absence of his mother Umi (Maya Karin). How he endured his days, missing his mother. It actually brings me to the thought of how if my mom is not here with us anymore. How would I be missing her so much. How? Just like how this film is being made.

Remember I mentioned above, this film evolves around a low cost building that would be demolished. The scene is set right in the middle of Johor Bharu city, down south of Peninsular Malaysia.

The film also tells about the story Sidi and his two other friends whom he hangs out with all the time. Remy (Muhammad Haqim) and Arman (Mohd Izzul Azmi). They roam the city at nights, they go skateboardings and many more.
There is a short Q&A after the movie film and there you go, some pictures for you all to see. ![]()
No shots with Maya Karin… Didn’t take any…



Watch the Press Interview
Watch The Trailer…
Catch it at GSC International Screens Midvalley, Pavilion KL, Gurney Plaza and One Utama from today (25th September) onwards…
