District 9

District 9 Poster
This post might seem a little late, but it’s a result of me being addicted to PS3 recently 
I just finished District 9 for the 2nd time. (I was 20 mins late for the film on my first viewing) 
First of all, I like the way alien is portrayed in this film. Not because they look like insects, but at last, aliens that are not blood hungry or they are highly intelligent that they created humans centuries ago, or some other crap. The intelligence of the aliens is perhaps the most interesting point of the film. If they’re not intelligent, how can they have such advanced weaponry? They can easily conquer the entire Africa with their weapons. I speculate that there are layers of society in their species, and these are the lowest of them, and there are highly intelligent type such as Christopher. (I suspect he is the captain of this ship, where he has control over the command module) They are even willing to sell a weapon 100 times more advanced than earth weaponry for cat food? I was quite amazed at this, really.
The setting of the film is also an interesting point. Look at some Hollywood blockbuster, such as 2012, The Day After Tomorrow, Independance Day, etc etc. They have something in common, in that America is always the first place to kena whatever hell unleashed on earth. Come on, America is just a small part of earth!! In choosing Africa, it was like whites and blacks racism in colonial era, where certain areas are only accessible to white people, and other unfair race based treatment, just like those depicted in this film. Nice one!!
This is an excellent realistic sci-fi action film, not some robots vs robots madness which I don’t even know what’s happening on the battlefield, and please, no short pant wearing girl showing her ass on a motor bike. There are enough pure entertaining films in the market now that doesn’t require your brain to think. For some people, it’s perfectly fine, but for me, I want something that keeps me thinking during the film or even after it, to think why his happens and what does this action mean, etc. Must be mind provoking!!!
That’s all. Good night.

Hi, it’s been a long time!! I will try to blog here as much as possible!!
Nothing much about me recently, except that I am working everyday and playing my PS3 after work at home. On weekends, I mostly hang out at malls.
Last saturday, I went to a paintball session with my friends. Nice one, although kinda expensive. I seriously think we should call it “PAINBALL” as a direct hit on your body would leave bruises for days, eg, my finger.
Everyone in our paintball session
It was an enjoyable session, but I am yet to find the culprit that shoots me even when I have surrendered. Best of all, I get to see Han Wei pants bao tyre!!! I am sounding like a crazy maniac.
Overall, paintball is a really exciting activity. Can get you all pumped up in action, and test your courage and bravery.
I am looking forward to the next session, but please dun make it so soon. Go go go Jit Min!!!
