Tuesday. 27th January 2009.
Just got back from CNY chalet, we left at around 2.30am this morning. I proceeded to sleep till 1pm in the afternoon, as I was really very tired from the chalet. The chalet was fun overall, but I didn't went Wild Wild Wet with the rest. Wii sessions was fun, I loved playing Rayman rabbit games, escept for the band part. Monopoly sessions was okay, but I think all of us got bored after a while as it was the electronic version, thus no joy in the monetary part. Shall blog more about the chalet with photos next time.
Watched Red Cliff two at Golden Village Tampines Mall on the 25 jan 09, first night of the chalet. I must say the movie was way better than Red Cliff one. It was rather funny in a way how the characters use their choice of words. The battle part was nice, espically the part Cao Cao's ships were set aflame. I heard that the movie was slightly off-track, modified from the comic version. But I don't know why, I almost fell asleep at the on land battle part, perhaps I was to sleepy then. Red Cliff Two is a movie worth watching, even if you did not watch the first episode, they did a recap and summary of it within the first five minutes. Red Cliff two is really a nice movie(:
Red Cliff (Chinese: 赤壁; pinyin: Chìbì), known in Singapore as The Battle of Red Cliff, is a Chinese epic film based on the Battle of Red Cliffs and events during the end of the Han Dynasty and immediately prior to the period of the Three Kingdoms in ancient China. The film is expected to be released in two versions. Within Asia, Red Cliff is to be released in two parts totaling over four hours in length. The first part was released in July 2008 and the second in January 2009.[1] Outside of Asia, a single 2½ hour film will be released in 2009.[1]
The film is directed by John Woo and stars Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Zhang Fengyi, Chang Chen, Hu Jun, Lin Chi-ling and Zhao Wei. With an estimated budget of US$80 million, Red Cliff is the most expensive Asian-financed film to date.[3]
