Addictive, July 15 2004
HP & CoS has impressed me in every single aspect. Storyline, tasks, bonus, adventure everything! Though they need to fix the graphics a bit here and there. *grins* It is quite a challenging game to play, and involve using your head in all aspect. It isn't easy to win but it's fun trying trying to beat again and again. So, it ends up being one of the addictive games out there. This is so far one of the best game products from Harry Potter's product's line.

Come what may...indeed..., July 15 2004
Frankly, the first reaction for this movie is, musical...cheezy! I have to admit, it is hard to look for a really good musical nowadays, or at least up average would be fine for me. Then, I heard Nicole Kidman is going to star on this musical, so I firgured, what the heck, let's gie it a shot. Since she just had her divorce and such. I must say, I have had put my foot in my mouth for this. The movie was splendid. Despite her personal mishaps, Nicole has proven to be one of the best. She sings, with Ewan Mcgregor as her co-star and they have their work ut out for them. This is a story of a poor writer (Ewan) in strive of getting his unobtainable object of desire (Nicole), who happens to be the main star of this circus theater show in Paris. They succumb into some sort of Forbiddened Love and they tried anything to be and stay together but fate have other plans for them. Nicole has to help her friend and boss from going bankcrupt and with that, she has to attend to this other rich guy, who owns the deed to the place. Help in the sense of be her compainion. Meanwhile, to cover up their affair, the Ewan has manage to create a play, due to mistaken liason earlier in the movie; therefore giving them the room to be together at least somewhere along the line. I must add one thing. The rich man gets what he wants, and if he can't have what he wants...nobody else will either. An applause for this one.

Great flick, July 12 2004
What do you have when two cereal promotional guys are fired off from the only thing they know how to do and they bills are piling up, and they need a job badly? In the same time, you need to find a good day care center for the kids when both parental units are off to work and find work. The main problem is, it is hard to find any at least a daycare that is trustworthy to even leave your kids and not to worry at all if it is safe enough and cheap! So back to question to unemployment. What do you do? Open an excellent daycare yourself! Open a business up! The only problem is you have a very strong and able competition, from an established day care which act like preschool. And the owner is very keen to keep every kid in her daycare not anybody else's. Much to add, there is a short animated movie in this dvd set and you gotta watch it *grins* Early Bloomer is the cutest animation I have ever seen and I must admit of watching it repeatitively way too many times hehehe

A word for thoughts, July 12 2004
I haven't find any better dictionary than this, and I have bunch of them at home to proof it. I rather search through this one then the rest of my dictionary collection if I need a definition offline. This will never die out in my list. I even have been using it since highschool, when my english teacher recommended it for us, of course then we have to use it for the rest of our high school years, and surprisingly, for the rets of our life, as it may seems. Thank Teacher for recommending this one for us.

Steamier, July 12 2004
This is the continuation of The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty, where Beauty is learning more of the arts of erotica in various form. Here, Beauty has managed to defy the Prince and as punishment, she is set off along with the other Prince and Princess off to the Village, where they are sold to any commoner who could afford them doing the Queen's bidding. In this book, Beauty is more focus on Prince Tristan, and always in hoping to be with him. But here is the ironic part of it all, this this book, it is far more focus on Prince Tristan's thoughts and feelings rather than beauty herself. This book btw, is far more steamier than the last and less plots rather and yes. Yummy!

A Very Sad Farewell, July 11 2004
Star Trek: TNG happens to be the best among all Star Trek Series EVER for me and growing up with this series on the sideline, it has been a part of my life. And they have come to their very last production of that series with this very sad farewell movie. I came out watching this movie with this familiar tugging in my chest, like you have when you are attending a funeral of a very close relative or friend. This movie started with the most anticipated wedding of Riker and Troi, yes it is about time! While on their way to Troi's home planet, for the traditional naked wedding, they encounter a strange signal from an unknown source, which turns out of be a broken up android who looked like Data and it is not Data's evil brother. Trying to fix him, they continue course back to their original destination until Janeway (yes, yuck lol) contacted Picard about some political associated meeting and Picard agreed to help. Arriving to some strange planet, Picard meet an unusual encounter with the leader, who looks exactly like him when he was way way way younger, who ironicly, is an exactly clone of Picard, and he extremely wants Picard bad. This is where the adventure really starts. Gosh! I can't believe this is the end of TNG.

Hopeless, July 9 2004
God! What was I thinking when I decidedto watch this movie. Oh yeah! I was a big fan of Spice Girls and I wasn't really thinking. Seriously, I expected more than this. I Thought they could have done better...MUCH BETTER! Before this movie came out, I thought it owuld be brilliant but, I am so god damn disappointed! This came out more of a stereotype of the worse movie ever. The word WHYYYYYYYY comes to mind. They have the potential to be great actress and they have blew it here! They should have gotten a better script.

Squallichious, July 7 2004
First time I heard about this game, my reaction was huh! Disney & FF crossovers. How lame. Then, it turn out I got it in my free dvd games stash, and might as well try it then let it rot to the ground in my collections. My verdict...OMG! This game is addicting. As much as fighting off evil daemons with an optional Mickey Mouse Magic wand, its more or less as demanding as any other RPG games. Great wonderful storyline, Great colors, weird FF characters though. Although Squall (FF) was still as dreamy as he ever gets in the world of games ^_^ Anyway, you have to jump through dimensions to get to another part of Disney's related movie to gain some points and strengthen yourself up, there boss are mostly familiar characters of Disney and FFs. What I hate about this game is, your "mates" aren't that helpful, camera angles are killing me extremely! But overall it's good to pass time with.

Awesome, July 7 2004
*Grins* This game is incredibly awesome. I would place this game up there along with FF games. The graphics are as good andthe storyline are just as great. The only different about this game is the fact that the main character is a horny fella, named Yuri. Yes, you heard me. Horny! LOL! There are ocassional testerone drive dialogues in this game so I don't really recommend kids to play this game. Girls are the weaker characters in the games, and yes in some levels you have to play her. The story goes mostly like, girl in trouble, guy save girl, guy turn demony evil, guy turn back good, and so on. Yuri, the main character has these weird flashbacks that gives him bad migraines. The only problem I have with this game is the bad, is the clock dial thing. You have to click in the right moment with your controller to get a good power attack. It's tough at first but it gets easier each time.

Timeless love tales, July 6 2004
Meet Layla. Meet Majnun. Two souls from different caste of life, one rich & the other otherwise. Layla and Majnun has been in love with each other ever since they were children. But due to their caste, their love has been forbiddened by Layla's parents. They have tried everything to keep them both apart, even by moving away to live in another city. Majnun, broken hearted, traveled in his rags to look for her until one day, he did but he has a competitor, a rich businessman much to Layla's father a far suited match for Layla. This is an age old story of love, much like Romeo & Juliet in genre but in a far more trouble in between. I would recommend reading of this literature at least once in your life.
