Chaser!

넷플릭스덕분에 추격자를 이제서야 봤다
..(한류에 기여한겐가?) 두 배우의 숨막히는 호연과 내용 전개에 경악(원래 이런 영화 너무 싫은데… 난 아직도 권선징악. 및 꿈과 희망을 주는 소재가 좋다…) 및 몸을 떨며 다보고 커피한잔 마시려했는데 부엌 카운터에 망치가 있다…으…

Days of Being Wild: 阿飛正傳(아비정전)

Another jewel found out of Netflix….

Great director Kar-Wai Wong(왕가위) (story and arts) with great actors… Leslie Cheung(장국영), Maggie Cheung(장만옥), and Andy Lau(유덕화)… One of the best HK movie I missed in past….

The movie doesn’t feel like it is the movie from 21 years ago… wow…

“You and I had 1 minute together, and now it has become a fact”

Movie: Casino

One of the good thing about Netflix streaming is actually the fact it gives me the chance to follow up the movies I missed sometime in past…

Just finished watching Casino.. 1995 Movie…which Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, and Sharon Stone… Yes Sharon Stone.. the heroin of high school students during my high school days….-o-;;;;;

The movie is kind of long and story is a bit long as well but kind of nice story telling on how a mafia man got into Casino business and how he drove success while managing the issues among violence and showy life of casino operation…

The Man from Nowhere

밤에 빨래개면서 Netflix Streaming service를 navigation하는 중 어디선가 영화 poster 중 낯이 익은 얼굴이 보였다…

앗 원빈!

(poster from IMDb)

오랜만에 감상해주신 한국 영화되시겠다….
들어오던 소문대로 좀 잔인은 했다만… 멋지네…

“한번만 안아보자”
“너희들은 내일 만을 살지? 난 오늘 만을 살아간다. 내일을 사는 놈은 오늘만 사는 나에게 죽는다. 오늘만 사는 것이 얼마나 엿같은지 알려줄테니까”

Prison Break Finished!

This was the “heartbeat” during my 2nd year in Ann Arbor…
but lost track of it after moving to Seattle… life has changed and our boys got older.. but luckily I found out the entire series is available on Netflix.. OMG!
So spent couple of weeks to finish it up… 🙂 Though the story went a bit out of control, still great series.. I still believe the best scene is Scofield getting out of Fox River Prison…

T-Mobile’s Seattle Speed Challenge: $1,000 says the Galaxy S™ 4G is faster than your iPhone®.

Nice approach… as one of the challenger game …starting this Friday, today, till end of Sunday….

Definitely worthwhile to try, but I am curious how many iPhone users will show up and do test to try to claim the money…. iPhone users don’t care about the speed, don’t care about the rateplan, and don’t care about anything other than the fact it is a iPhone!!!
(Anyhow, this test will do validate it)

Poor and somewhat sad analogy-if this hold true-, but hope this is not the case of insisting Wal-Mart is much better than Costco to loyal people shopping at Costco…

BTW, one funny extension is this news is showing up in Korean press as well but more twisted to how great Samsung’s Galaxy S device is… (No complaints because more Korean will recognize the company I work for, but thought this is a bit crossing over the line… )
