Production Blog

As the time for pre-production of The Moment draws near, I am considering setting up a blog for the production.

Would there be anyone to help make more noise about it in the first place?

Halo director

Among the many reasons, my jaw dropped for these.







No wonder director Neill Blomkamp is selected to direct Halo the movie.

And one of them i think, is a bloody student film!

Broken pieces of Soul

I may be angry and bitter at times (most of the time). And the reasons why may only be known to those who are close.

These feelings weren't always there in the first place.

They are from a recovered soul long ago broken from sad experiences. The pieces have changed and may not fit anymore. This soul learned to live with it.

Soon, I'll just be more, angry, jaded, and bitter.



I still believe in it. Just not with me anymore.

A Blink near the End of the Day

Can the day get any worse?

Things are falling apart. In time to come, I will have to make painful and difficult choices: none of them are pleasant.

I'll take it as another challenge, before I break and burn out further.

Smiles & Cries

I sat in the car getting a ride home. Today was a shitty day.

The song came on the radio and I felt worse.

I feel so angry and sad to the point that I realized how pathetic I was. Then I laughed. So hard that I cried.

The Lord has plans for me. I will wait.

Standing my Ground

F#%& YOU!

I'm not your sub. We decided to shut each other out didn't we?

So why drop messages or email to me whenever you feel like shit or when your current guy doesn't seem to work out for you? Also why do it at times when you almost want to flaunt what you got?

I grin at your stupidity. I now laugh at your new squeeze.

I won't be your sub again. I have moved on. Find someone else to listen to you.


Even though a small part of me wishes that you found the right one...

Don't call/text/email me again. I won't be the same guy you hope to be looking for.

Title Changes

Mercedes, which used to be Father, is now Sou. It means Hand in Mandarin.

Silver Case may be now Harsh City.

Sometimes drafts make that happen.

Childhood Re-lived

Went to the Play! Symphony and it was great!

Thanks to SHY I got to sit at the VIP box, just a few feet in front of the stage.

When the music play, all my childhood memories rush back.

The whole crowd was waiting for One Winged Angel. And when performance came, everybody went mad. I was happy enough with Theme from Metal Gear Solid 3, even though the arrangement from part two I hoped for didn't come.

Five minute standing ovation.

It's just too cool.

I didn't mind being in the house full of geeks.

Terminator|Robocop

Why didn't anyone notice this?

According to the trivia in Terminator, the T-800 runs components of Apple Macintosh operating systems, most likely Mac OS 9. And according to the trivia in RoboCop, the point-of-view shots from Robocop include references to MS-DOS.

MS-DOS is commercialized by Microsoft since it comes together with Windows.

Couldn't this be a better product placement for both Apple and Microsoft?

So why didn't any producers/studios with a hell lot of money approach Apple or Microsoft for even more money to make this movie happen?

Here's what the story can be like:
The T-800 is set to kill a guy named Norton. And RoboCop has to protect him because for some reason, he needs Norton. <-- No brainer there why RoboCop needs him.

If Apple wants, the machines can suddenly go:

T-800: Hello, I'm a Mac.
RoboCop: And I'm a PC.
And they go on fighting!

Example of this ad:



It can be a huge fight man!

Here's a sample of what it could be like:


Just think about it: almost unlimited product placement and advertisement!

Due for Operation

Mother Olivia went for a checkup.

The doctor says that a small operation is in order and she will be hospitalized for a day for observation.

It starts tomorrow morning.

I pray to God she'll be okay.

This may be this decade's Heat!

Two equal characters on the opposite side of the law.

That's the film I love to make also!

Stories about crime interest me. Be it comedy, drama or action, when there is crime in it, I'm game.

I can't wait for this to come man...

My Kind of Film!

I can't wait!!!!



Crime + Handheld/Steadicam + Family + Desperation = The kind of film I wanna make/ watch!

If I'm not a screenwriter. I would have been a cop. And if I'm not a cop, I would have been a criminal.

Threw up

It's really hot recently.

I'm the type of person who needs extra lots of air and be in a place with extra good ventilation.

I was at a discussion at a very stale air place for quite a while. The weather recently is crazily hot also. Within an hour, my head wanted to explode. I tried drinking lots of water but it didn't help much.

After I left the place, Aaron and I thought that we should grab some dinner.

The very moment I swallowed the last bits of a burger, and like a switch within me, I felt like puking.

I took a cab home. I felt sicker with every minute.

When I got home and got to the toilet, I threw up. It rushed out so hard that the veins in my face wanted burst. I felt very faint after that.

That was twenty-four hours ago.

Guys, the weather is insane. Please drink more water.

If I can offer you one tip for the future, sunscreen AND WATER would be it.

It's crazy!

Every aspect of it! The cinematography! The editing! The lighting!



I am in total awe!

No words can describe it. You have to watch it!

Tiredness in Sight

The return of Eye Fatigue!

Shy People and Piss

10:00am
QX and I arrived at the Seating Gallery. We sat and observe the rehearsals for the National Day Parade.
We downed a bottle of Newater.

11:00am
JY arrives. He took a bottle of mineral water for us each. Within the hour, we emptied the bottles.

12:00nn
It was getting really, really hot.
Wearing our shades, we continue to sit and observe the rehearsals. I turned over to the seats in front of us where we deposited the empty bottles. I counted them as I took a new bottle.

1:00pm
It was getting really hot. Our shirts soaked and sticked to our chest like second skin.
JY went to buy us a couple of bottled tea. Within the hour, the bottles filled with nothing but air.

2:00pm
Some of us are having headaches.
Me: Must drink more water.
We forced ourselves to drink three Newater straight.

3:00pm
Me: I noticed something.
QX: What?
Me: Did you piss?
QX: No.
Me: You?
JY: (Laughs)No.
I looked over at the empty bottles piling up. This is crazy...

4:00pm
Me: Lots of shy people here.
QX: Why?
Me: All of us here sun burn.

5:00pm
Still, nobody visited the loo or even has the urge to. We had downed more than twenty bottles of water.


The world is truly getting warmer.

In the end, I returned home and my piss was yellow. And it burns as it passes through my system!

Holy S#^& MTV!

This is by far, one of the best music videos I have seen.

Warning: contains sex, violence and drugs.



What a way to get attention. Great storytelling.

This is totally F%&*ed up.

Half a Day Lost

I took off early and headed home. I thought I could try to cook dinner for myself. I took a nap first, at three.






I didn't wake till ten minutes ago.

My face's all numb...
