Help is two-way traffic

How do ants survive flood? They assemble into waterproof raft.

Just have to help others and accept help from others. We tend to neglect help, tend to not looking for help. But remember to give first then receive.

We specialize in different areas. Together each achieves more.

The Longest Day (1962)

Commander:
"You remember it. Remember every bit of it, 'cause we are on the eve of a day that people are going to talk about long after we are dead and gone."

What if there were more Germans fighter planes in Normandy?
What if Hitler didn't take those sleeping pills during the invasion?
What if there was anybody, somebody who was bold enough to wake Hitler up?
What if Germans won WWII?
What if...

有早知,无乞丐。

2011 NUSS K Final

Now what song next?

Sorry 赵明福

According to Youtube, Prosecutor of Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission asked forensic expert if it was possible for 赵明福 to strangle himself.

Wherever he is now, he might really consider strangling himself.

Too Young Too Innocent

According to Youtube, Ms.Tin (age 27), youngest PAP candidate for G.Election 2011 said:
  1. Healthcare cost in Singapore is manageable, low.
  2. Education cost in Singapore is low.
Maybe she earns too much. Luckily she teamed up with Mr. Goh Chok Tong.

Christ the Redeemer

In Fast Five, Christ the Redeemer is featured throughout. He is absolutely gorgeous.

Definitely I will visit the Redeemer someday, hopefully during Worldcup 2014.

Though not religiously knitted, I feel safe under the guardian of the Redeemer, just like being driven in an Optimus Prime.

Platoon (1986) - Why don't retake

Look at this classic poster which shows the famous Sgt. Elias's "arm-raising" scene. Pockets of fake blood intended to simulate gunshot wounds to Sgt. Elias's body malfunctioned and never exploded. However, Willem Dafoe's performance in that take was considered so impressive that the scene was left as is.

What a strange/bold decision to NOT-RETAKE, considering most directors would do otherwise.

Used to not comprehend, now I appreciate no blood to go with that particular scene. If bloody I will be distracted, like distracted by the babes along the roadside while driving peacefully.

Maybe I have aged.

Thor (2011)

Odin:
"Whoever wields this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor."

命里有时终须有,命里无时莫强求.

Fast Five (2011)

Best in the series.

Dom:
"Money comes and goes, we all know that. The thing that matters most in the world are the people in this room, right here, right now. Salut mi familia!"

How true.
