LMEC Like the Moon Escaping From the Clouds Teaser

Like the Moon Escaping From Clouds is another movie to watch out for this year. The movie is about 4 main actors facing off: Hwang Jung-min as a blind swordsman and Cha Seung-won as a leader of rebellious forces fighting to overturn the strict social order.  It looks pretty good and kind of reminds me of Chuno.  The story is set at the end of the 16th century’s Joseon Dynasty, following Japan’s invasion of Korea.

Stargate Universe Episode Light on Syfy

Posted by CD | Posted in International Movies | Posted on 23-10-2009

OK, so I’m really a huge Sci-Fi buff and of course have been following the new show Stargate Universe on the Syfy network.  I must say though, the storyline has huge potential but so far the show has been filled with mediocre acting and a waste of obvious talent. The new episode Light comes on tonight.  The episode is about the ship supposedly” going off course and running into a sun as the power on the ship is gone. ” See the preview below:

Now let’s think about this for a minute.

  1. The ship was built by the ancients.
  2. The ship has been in space for thousands of years.  So how can the ship replenish its power supply?
  3. What is the sun?  ENERGY.

So here we have a plot where at least 2 people are scientifically smart .  The ship’s brilliant Machiavellian scientist Nicholas Rush and the kid genius Eli.  So anyways, once the crew finds out the ship is heading into a sun they all want to evacuate thinking they are going to die.  Hummm does that make any sense that Nicholas or Eli can’t possibly think the ship will regenerate it’s power by the sun’s energy.  Remember in the 3 episode I think where Nicholas told Eli to put his hand in the stargate so that it wouldn’t disconnect.  He was like “i assume stargate universe july poster 00 203x300 Stargate Universe Episode Light on Syfythe ancients would have programmed a fail safe for this kind of event to happen…”  So someone that can make that conclusion can’t see that the sun is energy I mean even people on the current Earth know that.  Also the show so far has made Eli into an annoying little brat that is reduce to playing with those flying balls aka “kinos”.  What a waste of talent, why make him a genius at all.  So my whole point is if this whole episode turns out to be what I have said that the ship will regenerate itself using the sun…then Stargate Universe needs to fire it’s writers and get people who actually know how to write a story.   Not to mention I’m going to be pissed and think that one minute this show smart people on it and the next minute they can’t even come to the conclusion or ask themselves how does the ship regenerate it’s power??  I better be wrong about this!

What do you think?  Comment here.

A very big congratulations to the founders of Dramafever.com Seung Bak and Suk Park on what has been over a year of meeting with MBC and other Korean broadcasting companies to the website we know today as Dramafever.com.   A site that appeals not only to Koreans but fans of all racial backgrounds worldwide who like Korean drama.  I must admit I really don’t even understand why I have cable television myself.  I just watch dramas most of the time.   There is hardly anything good on cable television that appears to me here in the USA.

To Seung Bak and Suk Park 축하해요!

The Kingdom of the Winds (바람의 나라)

 The Kingdom of the Winds (바람의 나라)

Title: 바람의 나라 / The Kingdom of the Winds
Also known as: Country of Wind / The Land of Wind
Genre: Period Drama, Fantasy
Episodes: 36
Broadcast Network: KBS2

OK I’ve been really hooked on this drama for the last two weeks.  I don’t know but I really like historical dramas for some reason.  Anyways, I must say that before you watch this drama you MUST watch the drama Jumong to get an understanding of what happen before this.  That will take some time…since Jumong is like 86 episodes.  But it is worth it.  So basically Kingdom of the Winds is about King Jumong’s son and grandson.  And we even get to see King Daeso…I really hate that guy and really wish King Jumong got a chance to kill that King even if he is his half brother.  But the story of Kingdom of the Winds is about Jumong’s son named King Yuri and how the sorceress told King Yuri that his 3rd son would kill his mother, his father, his brothers and would eventually kill his own son and to top it off bring the collapse of the kingdom.  WOW…so what will King Yuri do?  Well watch the movie!

Here is the OST.

‘Precious’ The Movie

This looks like a really good movie, but I don’t think it will be out until October or November of this year.  Anyways check out the trailer.

Synopsis

Set in Harlem in 1987, it is the story of Claireece Precious Jones, a sixteen-year-old African-American girl born into a life no one would want. Shes pregnant for the second time by her absent father; at home, she must wait hand and foot on her mother, a poisonously angry woman who abuses her emotionally and physically. School is a place of chaos, and Precious has reached the ninth grade with good marks and an awful secret: she can neither read nor write. Precious may sometimes be down, but she is never out. Beneath her impassive expression is a watchful, curious young woman with an inchoate but unshakeable sense that other possibilities exist for her. Threatened with expulsion, Precious is offered the chance to transfer to an alternative school, Each One/Teach One. Precious doesnt know the meaning of alternative, but her instincts tell her this is the chance she has been waiting for. In the literacy workshop taught by the patient yet firm Ms. Rain, Precious begins a journey that will lead her from darkness, pain and powerlessness to light, love and self-determination.
