Woohoo! dance.gif 49 Days is off to a good start! I hope it keeps getting better, maybe it could even hold a place in the whole year's rankings!! eyebrowes.gif:
You mean that you have DAT files that you want to use in your MV? You can download a program, I reccomend EO Video, and just convert those DAT files into MPEG/AVI (I reccomend MPEG since it takes up less space on your PC), then you should be able to use them in Windows Movie Maker. All the MVs that I have seem to be in KTV form too. dry.gif

The thing is that, my computer already has enough junk and periodically, my firewall would pop up saying someone is trying to hack my computer so I've been sort of reluctant on downloading programs. I don't know, if the people I ask/request files from aren't available then I guess I would have to resort downloading the EO program. Thanks for the info, I've been searching for such a program for a while now too.

Oh Yay! 49 Days is number 1! Hope it continues to do good in the box office!
For those Dat files shouldnt windows movie maker work for it? I think Ive tried it before and I think it worked for me. I never successfully made a MV with the windows movie maker, the original videos voice would always be in sync with the music I added into it so you would hear two voices. = (.

Also, I think I can upload the Disgrace Mv for you. Itll just take a little while since Ill have to find the cd that I burned it onto and upload! Is a yousendit link ok? Wait... I think the its a DAT file, do you mind if it is? If you do I think I can convert it but what I use to convert isnt really good and its not that nice of a quality. But I can try if you want... =/

And I have a Twins Effect II MV but they are those asf files and are small, would you mind about those? If not I think I can help upload those too.

Lol. And one more thing, you know that MV that you made, the lilsleepyhead916 was me. I got your PM from TC. Its no problem in using that picture because you credited me. I hate people who take my work but dont credit... dry.gif

DAT files work? Hm, I've tried and tired importing the videos but they still won't work.

Um, the windows movie maker won't accept asf files either. The only files it accepts are usually mpegs, mwv, avi I think or perhaps I have an older version?

But I already asked a few people to help search and upload some files for me so I think I should be ok but if I really do need your help, then I'll ask you again. happy.gif'

Oh really, so lilsleepyhead916 is you?? Haha, sorry I couldn't wait for your reply la. It's very possible to produce a MV in 3 days...I achieved that but it was a bit rushed. Um, I guess I sort of have a short attention spand because at first, I was super excited making a MV for the very first time then a few hours after I just wanted it to be done and over with. loool.gif Plus my stupid windows movie make kept freezing so I kept losing my work. Glad it's over but now I'm onto another MV.

THANKS! Maybe Ill try to make a lilttle MV over this 3 day weekend!
OO YAY! Thanks for sharing! Gillians voice for Cry Smile Affinity sounds different. It seems much more deep, but still good nonetheless! And OMG! The Joey Yungs song sounds good! And at the end of the song, its so sweet how Gillian told the fans to not yell out Charlenes name and to watch and listen carefully and to cheer for her infatuated.gif. Cant wait til the actual concert VCD/DVD comes out!
Can you upload that too? =D I wanna hear her sing that too...
And heres the link to the Disgrace EEG Mv [biggrin.gif] <~~~ Clicky Clicky
Also, its not in DAT format, I found another way to change it to mpeg format w/o messing up the quality. Enjoy!

Thanks so much for the upload! So which name did you want me to credit you as for this next MV?

Lilsleepyhead916. This sn was made kind of randomly because at that time i didnt have any sns that I liked, so i looked at the closest thing that I had on my desk, and it was colorific brand color pencils, so i took that to make my sn =D.

And heres the Twins Effect II Mvs:

Cantonese - [x]

Mandarin - [x]
^^ This one I converted from asf to mpeg, so the quality might not be that good. Sorry bout that.

Hello.

Can someone please help me: I'm trying to produce a MV based on these. I already have these but they're either in DVD fomats or DAT and my movie maker thing cannot create a MV with these formats.

I'm looking for these MVs in mpeg or wmv formats, no other. Please use Yousendit or Rapidshare.

Movie MVs
Twins Effect I MV
Twins Effect II MVs (2)

Twins
Please All Non-Karaoke
Thank You For Your Love EEG Version
Disgrace EEG Version
No Tears In Moscow

I feel like such a loser for prancing around asking everyone. happy.gif' Oh well, I guess for my MV.

GILLIAN SUPPORTER!!

Here is the the mv for No tears in Moscow.[DL]
Note- there's a quite huge watermark at the top...and the quality isn't really that great, since I converted it from rmvb to wmv with Winavi. So I don't know whether this will help you...

I have the music video for 'Thank You For Your Love' too, but it's going to take awhile to convert it...but I'll upload it as soon as it's done.

-edited-
here's the music video (-note- the music is out of sync)
[DL]


Anyways I've just been in Twinsfans.net and they were discussing about why Mani/EEG doesn't allow Gillian to kiss in movies...so I just thought maybe you guys/gals would like to express your opinion too, since
I saw Cathy W's post there and decided to write one as well. (took me approx. 30 minutes to write a few sentences...I have trouble typing Chinese blush.gif )

Thanks for taking your time to convert and upload the files. The Cantonese and Mandarin one are both the same. So I guess I'll use the Cantonese one since it's really good quality and um, does anyone have the second mv of Twins Effect II with Jaycee as the singer of the MV?? I was also looking for that one too.

Here's a radio interview of Gillian; she talks about events that happened while filming "49 Days" and about the other actors/actresses that she's worked with before. The interview begins at about 31 minutes. I think the themesong of 49 Days was the song played in the middle of the interview as a little break and then they played Conscience Discovery to end the interview.

I know; the people there, besides the topic starter, either don't want her to kiss anyone besides Ah Sa or they simply say that Gillian herself doesn't want to kiss anyone. Seriously, have those people who claim that Gillian doesn't want to kiss anyone and is using EEG as an excuse to avoid kissing in movies read ANY of the recent news? Gillian expressed herself that she's not exactly fond of the restrictions from EEG of not letting her kiss, yet we have people responding to that topic that there are no such restrictions? Gillian wants to act in a romance movie, and 99% of romance tear-jerker movies include kissing; if Gillian really didn't want to kiss herself, she wouldn't be expressing that she wants to act in one of those movies, would she? It's more like thee people need a newsflash. I'd say either the Gillian/Twins fans are being ignorant about this issue, and not to mention, not being updated with Gillian's latest news, or Gillian fans are simply STILL staying silent to this issue while most of the those people who responded to the topic are Sa Fans.

I know! Plus, Stephen is always teasing Gillian about EEG not allowing her to do anything intimate. I just believe Stephen knows better..
Whatever, I really can't be bothered with Charlene fans anymore.. they can go and believe what they want to believe..

Exactly, I'm quite sure that Stephen knows Gillian and what's going on with her WAY better than any of us would. If those "non-existent" restrictions weren't there, then I don't think Stephen would tease Gillian and ask her if she needs to get permission from EEG to sit on his lap during a photoshoot for a magazine. Oh well, at least Gillian has a friend who sticks up for her.

Charlene fans...... I don't know what to say about them anymore either. We never seem to be on the same page or level with them.

Those fans are really getting on my nerves...especially the ones who say she's using EEG as an excuse and to stop reporters for asking further about that matter. Does Gillian really seem like that kind of person to them? Judging by how she's in interviews and clips, she seems quite blunt/straight-forward, so I myself think if she doesn't want to film any kissing scenes....she'll stand for it and not use EEG nor Mani as an excuse.
However I don't see a reason to why some of the fans don't want Gillian to kiss someone on-screen...it's seems like they think it's totally okay for her to kiss Charlene and Joey (who are girls) and not other guys (for movies). I mean she's an actress for godness sake, those intimate scenes are inevitable...Mani and EEG are only making Gillian seem unprofessional by telling directors/scripwriters to cut out those scenes.

Wow..can't believe some of these people still thinks Gillian doesn't want to kiss anyone so she 'used' EEG...Charlene Fans, I could guess why they would think that...but if they are Twins Fans, I'm kind of speechless... cluebat.gif Even my friend who has no interest of Twins notice so much more from newspapers...She sees how the attentions were always on Charlene... down.gif that's just disappointing to know some Twins Fans can't even notice things like that and they claim to like both!! rolleyes.gif

^Are you guys sure those fans aren't children? They seem to be a bit PG-13ish loool.gif !!

Um, can you guys help me. I'm downloaded EO to try to convert my DAT files into Mpegs but it won't work. What other programs have you guys used to convert such files??

Thanks.
Gill#1Fan
in TC forum i see bluehearts arguing back and its just that those charlene fans have thick heads and just dont get the point. i find it funny when ya say that even the "TWINS" fans dont get it. if you like both the same way dont you see that one is getting treated wayyyy better than the other one? and they call themselves twins fan.. ha i laugh... lol

Those fans are really getting on my nerves...especially the ones who say she's using EEG as an excuse and to stop reporters for asking further about that matter. Does Gillian really seem like that kind of person to them? Judging by how she's in interviews and clips, she seems quite blunt/straight-forward, so I myself think if she doesn't want to film any kissing scenes....she'll stand for it and not use EEG nor Mani as an excuse.

Of course it's alright to use the article; anything that comes in handy for defending Gillian is gonna be alright. I posted a reply too, but it seems like there's one particular fan who INSISTS that it's Gillian who's pushing away chances of kissing on-screen. blink.gif Gillian does appear to be blunt of her replies, so she wouldn't be the kind of person who uses other people as excuses. I can't believe that person used news of 2004 to defend his/her replies of how it's Gillian's decision. Ha, so I posted a reply using news of *ahem* 2006 and not to mention, which were written this month where Gillian expressed that she's determined to kiss someone on-screen before she turns 30. innocent.gif Why can't those fans accept that Gillian's 25 years old and she is old enough to kiss someone as Gillian had said herself? Just because Gillian said that she likes doing action movies doesn't mean she can't do movies of other genres; it's a good thing if an actress is suitable for a variety of movie genres. It's like they WANT Gillian to be stuck in a little circle where she can ONLY do action movies. I don't see how the fans there would like Ah Sa and Gillian to do a lesbian movie, but Gillian can't even do any intimate scenes with a male co-star in a male-female relationship in a movie. It's such a jip how they say they don't want either Twin to kiss anyone, but since Ah Sa already kissed someone, it's alright for her. dry.gif

I think Gill did a good job on singing Joey's song. Really does prove that she can sing a variety of songs greatly. Ppl always say Gill can only sing slow songs, this proves them wrong!

But then again, I guess it depends on how they define a scary movie as...some of them probably watch alot of these movies and doesn't feel scary now that they are watching these genres anymore...lolx..well I heard it was too scary that Charlene left in the middle of the movie..really depends on the people..

I've noticed that all the movies of Gillian of which she was the first female lead in all had a good result, like Beyond Our Ken, House Of Fury and now 49 Days; they've all been in first place when it was shown in theatres; whereas, the movies that failed the boxoffice are the ones where Gillian had a puny role. That's a good reason for Gillian to get more leading roles. sleep.gif

I think whether a movie is good or not really depends on the viewer's taste, so some people's opinions you can't really trust completely. I went surfing around chinese forums and the majority of the people said that the movie was nicely filmed; it was very fast-paced without dragging points. From the comments I've seen, this movie isn't exactly a horror movie; it just has some points where it'd jingle your bones. 49 Days is even a tear-jerker movie; a fan's comment from TTC is that 49 Days is no less touching than A Chinese Tall Story/All About Love. As for Gillian's performance, the comments are half and half. Majority of the viewers agree that Gillian has more or less made improvements to her acting, but there are random people whom insist that her acting still "sucks".

I agree. There is only one person I personally trust to tell me whether I will think a film will be good (Kozo@LoveHKFilm) and sometimes I even do not agree. Liking in a film or not depends on your own opinion, not anyone elses. I think some films are absolutely rubbish and yet someone will always think it's good. *sigh*...no wonder HK films are going to the dumps, people don't understand what a good film is.

Yeah, I look at comments of different viewers for references about the movie, but I don't trust any of them completely. I'll give my own opinion after I personally have seen it. Sometimes I think that HK people are just uh.... "different" than the rest of us around the world? It's such a pity to see some movies/series being labelled as a failure or simply degraded by some people because of getting bad boxoffice results/ratings when it was actually a good movie/series; it's even worse to see some rubbish film score well in the boxoffice. The only good movie that Wong Jing has produced, I would say, was Colour Of The Truth, but then again, he was co-directing with one of the directors from Infernal Affairs; the only downside of that film was Gillian appearing for what? 5 scenes?

And it's not only movies/series, the same goes for singing. Some HK people seem to have some stereotypic thought of how loud singing = good singing, soft singing = bad singing. That's where we get all the "Charlene's a better singer than Gillian because she sings louder!" Putting Twins aside, I saw some person at an HK Forum trashing JANICE because "she didn't sing loud enough during her performance on JSG." I personally think that Janice is a very good singer with a very nice voice, and just because she "didn't sing loud enough for those people" doesn't bring her down; same goes for Gillian.

Yeah. Gillian's lead roles thus so far have been diverse and quite interesting. The audience/fans never know what type of role Gillian will portray next so I guess that mystery is quite alluring. With the wonderful results pouring in like this, EEG better stop and reconsider themselves. They should stop featuring Gillian in nonsense films as a so called guest star or minor character because not only does that waste Gillian's time working on better bigger projects but it also damages her reputation for taking on such a tiny insignificant role that requires no acting talents and becomes such a mocking flop at the box office.

I mean, I would hate to watch Gillian elevate in her acting abilities from her successful solo projects then be judged from her small cameos in talentless films that don't even grasp a tiny portion of her potential because not all people are going to watch all Gillian films to acknowledge her improved acting skills.

Those random people who still insist that Gillian sucks at acting are obviously not fans nor are they neutral either. They're probably part of the Anti-Gillian group that went to watch it just to capture flaws and gossip online to degrade the movie or perhaps they didn't even watch the movie but instead falsely claim the same old repetitive scheme because it has worked previous times.

This film does have it all. It has some scary effects, love elements, mystery, action, some funny moments, and the list just grows. Well, it's a movie...so realistically, if a one part film doesn't drag, then that's already a good indication that it's better than most current movies. Don't you just hate it?...when you rent some movies either Chinese or American or whatnot and you have to control your interest by fast fowarding the film? And it's a one part begin and end movie?...which isn't supposed to be fast fowarded because you would believe that since the storyline only has one shot it won't lag but because it just keeps dragging endlessly, you fast foward?? AH- I hate it when that happens.

Yeah, I agree. There have been several movies I had to read reviews for before purchasing the actual film (No nearby Chinese Blockbusters or theatres) but the majority of them have been horribly the reverse of the reviews. So now, I just buy it and if it turns out bad then I guess I can't blame anyone and if it turns out good, then I write my own review of that movie from a non-bias and most honest impression to help inform buyers what they're in store for. I guess, that's my way of saying "Thank you" for an enjoyable evening. loool.gif

Recently, HK residents usually base all of their attention and interest onto only some actors and actresses rather than supporting the actual movie. So the movies that don't have as much as a popular cast gets ignored and shoved into the corner while the film that does, receives more recognition but possess such a poor quality script and storyline etc. in comparison to the others. That's why in order for a HK movie to even make it at the box office, so many famous actors and actresses have to bundle up for one film, which makes me wonder?...are the overall profits even enough to pay the entire popular cast in the end? So I'm really glad and super thankful that Gillian's solo projects have been extremely successful not for the cast but for everything else.

I don't know what is up with HK lately. Singing louder doesn't imply better singing. Better box office results doesn't imply quality either. GR! Because of their stubborn attitude towards small good films, they discourage the production of good films which is something HK really really needs at the moment.

From the reviews that I've read, there seems to be some funny scenes, some touching scenes (a few said they cried!!) and some scary scenes.. quite a few people complained about the ending though..even those who said the movie is good...
There has been quite a lot of positive reviews on the movie as well..

Reviews --> http://hk.movies.yahoo.com/060122/28/1knol...t&st=user&s=rec


Looking at the ratings from the first page, it seems like they really like it. And it seems pretty cool in how the movie gives out different emotions; sad, scary, and funny.

Judging from how Gillians solo movies are without the big superstars is doing so well, I wonder how well will her solo movies with big stars like Andy Lau will do?

Yeah. Gillian's lead roles thus so far have been diverse and quite interesting. The audience/fans never know what type of role Gillian will portray next so I guess that mystery is quite alluring. With the wonderful results pouring in like this, EEG better stop and reconsider themselves. They should stop featuring Gillian in nonsense films as a so called guest star or minor character because not only does that waste Gillian's time working on better bigger projects but it also damages her reputation for taking on such a tiny insignificant role that requires no acting talents and becomes such a mocking flop at the box office.

I mean, I would hate to watch Gillian elevate in her acting abilities from her successful solo projects then be judged from her small cameos in talentless films that don't even grasp a tiny portion of her potential because not all people are going to watch all Gillian films to acknowledge her improved acting skills.

Those random people who still insist that Gillian sucks at acting are obviously not fans nor are they neutral either. They're probably part of the Anti-Gillian group that went to watch it just to capture flaws and gossip online to degrade the movie or perhaps they didn't even watch the movie but instead falsely claim the same old repetitive scheme because it has worked previous times.

This film does have it all. It has some scary effects, love elements, mystery, action, some funny moments, and the list just grows. Well, it's a movie...so realistically, if a one part film doesn't drag, then that's already a good indication that it's better than most current movies. Don't you just hate it?...when you rent some movies either Chinese or American or whatnot and you have to control your interest by fast fowarding the film? And it's a one part begin and end movie?...which isn't supposed to be fast fowarded because you would believe that since the storyline only has one shot it won't lag but because it just keeps dragging endlessly, you fast foward?? AH- I hate it when that happens.

Recently, HK residents usually base all of their attention and interest onto only some actors and actresses rather than supporting the actual movie. So the movies that don't have as much as a popular cast gets ignored and shoved into the corner while the film that does, receives more recognition but possess such a poor quality script and storyline etc. in comparison to the others. That's why in order for a HK movie to even make it at the box office, so many famous actors and actresses have to bundle up for one film, which makes me wonder?...are the overall profits even enough to pay the entire popular cast in the end? So I'm really glad and super thankful that Gillian's solo projects have been extremely successful not for the cast but for everything else.

I don't know what is up with HK lately. Singing louder doesn't imply better singing. Better box office results doesn't imply quality either. GR! Because of their stubborn attitude towards small good films, they discourage the production of good films which is something HK really really needs at the moment.

GILLIAN SUPPORTER!!!

You know what I think? I think some of those people who insist that Gillian's acting sucks might've based their opinion on her past movie roles which are more tiny than tiny and contribute nothing to the movie, but serve the purpose of a vase. They've probably already set their opinion right down that Gillian can't act, and are too stubborn to look further into any recent movie performances that Gillian's given. I see that so often; an actor/actress might start off not giving an absolutely fantastic performance in their early movies, and stubborn people will never change their opinion regardless if the actor/actress made improvements at all. I've read all the comments posted at Yahoo! and most comments refer that Gillian has made improvements in her acting, whether it's a tremendous improvement, considerate amount of improvement, some improvement. There are people who seem like they don't want to admit that she's improved, but they do anyways; for example, comments like, "Gillian has made improvements to her acting, but it could still be better." I don't blame those comments though; one could always improve on something. Of course there are people who simply say that she has no improvement or just sucks without giving a good explaination of how and why. I read a comment that expressed that Gillian has bad acting because her voice sounded weird when delivering her lines? Uh huh........

Another thing that I dislike at CCT is some people there actually believe or want to believe or they simply persist that EEG has nothing and absolutely NO INFLUENCE on the movies that either Twin receives when someone FINALLY brings up the biased issue of the amounts of movies of each Twin. That is the reason that they use to fight back the statement in regards to the biased issue. Can you believe that? It's like HELLO?! EEG is the managing company for Twins; they definitely do have the rights and power to give influence and make decisions on the movies that Twins receive. If EEG had no influence on the movie offers, then would the roles between Charlene and Gillian in TTE be suddenly switched right before filming? Then would several movies offered to Gillian be pushed away? I remember there was this horror movie that was offered to Gillian once, and then there was a reason about how Gillian can't film horror movies because she doesn't like them or something; therefore, she can't film it. Gillian has expressed that she likes horror movies, and what is 49 days, which is advertised as a horror movie, if she can't film horror-based movies?

I actually don't mind that much if Gillian does do one or two guest-starring roles once in a while. Because if the role is good enough, Gillian will still shine. She was shining through in Bug Me Not!, though it wasn't exactly the best movie ever and Gillian's purpose of being there was just to serve as a pawn to bring Isabella up. There was this advertisement on upcoming movies in a magazine I was reading once, and they actually printed: Bug Me Not! - Starring: Isabella Leong, Gillian Chung. It was kinda funny; Gillian was a guest star and suddenly it's starring? (Just a funny fact, I was watching "When Rules Turn Loose" today, and during a scene in the theatre with Sammul Chan and Myolie Wu, there was a poster of Bug Me Not! on the wall, which was featuring Gillian only. Maybe you guys could keep your eye out for it if you ever decide to watch the series.) Nevertheless, the critics of the HK Film Awards expressed that the only two people who shined through Bug Me Not! were Gillian and Candy Lo.

49 Days really does seem like a big surprise to the HK film industry during recent times. Two years was spent on preparing the movie, and it took half a year to film it. Seriously, besides Gillian and maybe Stephen and Steven, the cast of 49 Days isn't exactly famous or popular to pull in the viewers who base their choices of movies on who the movie is starring. But I think the production company does want some of that kind of viewers to go though since 3 out of 4 different styles of posters feature Gillian, and she's the most appealing out of the whole cast.

I bet it would be a total knock-out if Gillian were to co-star with a big star like Andy Lau! It would also earn her more recognition as well. Her solo leading movies have all done well so far, and her male co-stars were only Daniel Wu and Stephen Fung. Daniel Wu could be considered as a boxoffice promise for the most part, but he usually has a boxoffice promising leading lady with him too, so the boxoffice rates of his movies don't completely depend on him. I'm not sure about Stephen though; he doesn't exactly make many movies though, so can't judge how promising he is to boxoffice rates. Regardless, I'm still hoping that Andy does start a movie with Gillian as the female lead since he said that he'll find a way to kiss her somehow after Charlene's surprising kiss on-stage, but Gillian said the only way she'll do so is if they star in a movie together.

The next plug song for Twins after Kindergarten is A Story Of Texas. I think Conscience Discovery will also start showing up more on the radio as well after Cleverness is finished with its round as Kenny's plug song. The three main songs that EEG will be promoting from Kenny's album are Moon Bright Bright, Cleverness, and Conscience Discovery. Moon Bright Bright has been plugged just before the album release, then Cleverness was plugged and I think it's almost done, next should be Conscience Discovery.

Hey, have you guys read today's news? There might be a sequel to 49 days because some people liked it so much that they requested for one. Tsui Siu Ming said it will be possible to have one and they are currently discussing it. If they do, the original actors will be used! yeah.gif

Wow...a sequel..Both positive and negative. I hope if they really have one, it would be good because usually sequels isn't good and ruins the movie overall...but yea, learning that a sequel might happen let's us know that the movie is really good!! and usually people come up with sequels when they see they can earn more money since the first one was successful!!

That's awesome. A request for sequel already! Way to go Gillian!! Honestly, I felt that Gillian is the main one bringing in the box office for this movie since most of the posters features her and she's like the most popular out of the casts. Why can't EEG see that?? cluebat.gif I really can't wait to see it!!

Do you still remember how much Gillian's previous movies got in boxoffice...did those surpass the twins effect or any of the other movies that both Charlene and Gillian participated in?

Unfortunately, I don't remember what the box office rates for those movies were. But here's a clip of where Beyond Our Ken was announced as first place for the box office: (Credit To CCT) http://s17.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1DS51GW...YQ1SDNSL19QQIA4

I found this old clip of Twins singing an english song, "The Lord's Prayer". I like Gillian's voice when she sings in english.... blush.gif She doesn't have much of an accent either; she should get around to singing some english songs, but not the children songs. Gillian said in a magazine interview that she wants to sing english songs in the HK Coliseum, mostly a song called "Somewhere Out There".

GILLIAN SUPPORTER!

Here we go again with our long essays lol. hug.gif

Sometimes I can't help but believe that the fans at CCT are children who are restricted to watch PG-13 films. lmao.gif Seriously, the news that are released are in Chinese, something they can clearly read, understand, and respond to unlike some of us here (me) who shamefully can only recognize a few Chinese characters, enough to make an elementary sentence YET I still manage to know more than those fans. And THANKS hug.gif Little_Purple_Bell for always informing us with translated news articles and CathyW for many updates regarding Gillian. Those fans are probably the main cause of Gillian's continuous bias treatment from her manager, her agency, and at times her own partner. It seems like those fans believe that the most efficient way to support Gillian is just to straightfowardly purchase her merchandise, albums, etc. but they're not understanding the entire picture. It takes much more than a couple of items here and there to be a true fan even if under the label of a Twins Fan and not fully a Gillian Fan. Speaking about them just frustrates me because they won't likely change their perceptions; afterall Gillian already announced her discomfort with her company's restrictions and bias treatment BUT some fans still will not budge in terms of thinking.

Some people are just plain pathetic. Seriously, Gillian has tremendously improved yet like you've said, there are still some people out there who believes not. I know that acting or singing sort of depends on one's own preferences and opinions but hm, if something is a fact like Gillian's improvement then most likely going around that claiming that she hasn't is just so invalid. Stubborn people have issues with almost everything. Acting always has room for improvement I understand that. Andy has been in the industry for quite some time now even before I was born but personally, it seems like his acting abilities have neither improved nor worsened. He sort of remains constant now. As for Gillian, she already stated that her previous roles were so abruptly presented to her, it was impossible for her to adapt and transform herself into those characters successfully; thus, resulting in her poor performances. People are so prepared to criticize her and probe at love rumors rather than pay attention to her work and her reasons as to why her acting career has been such a rough journey. And about Gillian sounding weird when delivering her lines as an excuse for hating on her acting abilities is just speechlessly dumb! blink.gif

Haha. The solo poster of Gillian in Bug Me Not! is hilarious. I so want to see that. I'll be looking out for that. Well, it's nice to know that Gillian and Candy were the only ones who shined through from that um trying to be cute but ended up dumb movie. Sorry, this is my honest opinion.

49 Days is doing quite well for having such a low profile cast besides Gillian actually. Stephen has only made a successful comeback with House of Fury and the other Steven, hm...he's still stuck in that Boy'z, the no talent male version of Twins image. Daniel Wu, his box office hits are usually in relations to his leading ladies. I do hope that Andy does keep his words and invite Gillian as one of his leading ladies in one of his next romance films because Andy has been in the industry for so long, most of his recent productions enter international markets which is super cool if Gillian was introduced that way. But I'm sort of iffy on Andy though. It seems like Andy may be nice and funny upfront joking about inviting Gillian in one of his movies in order to gain his missed kiss but behind cameras, he does favor Sa more. It seemed like Andy and Sa totally disregarded Gillian while onstage during the mini concert. I know that Andy and Sa have worked together so their bond could be a bit closer but even before the movie collaboration, Andy commented that out of the new generation of actresses, he believes Sa has most potential. Andy even compared Zhang Ziyi's acting abilities as a 9 out of 10 (it is a high number in scale but did he have to rate her based on what? did he all of a sudden create his own rules of "What makes a good actress?") in which he is entitled to his own opinion but I for one can see that Zhang Ziyi is one of the most daring, bold, and convincing Asian stars out there who has successfully portrayed an array of roles so what makes Andy have any right to compare her with his past leading ladies and to Sa?? out of all actresses, someone who has never took on an important or serious enough role to be on the same scale as Ziyi. I know that there are many who hate Ziyi but frankly, she's a wonderful actress. Andy believes that Sa falls under similar in ratings (?) as Ziyi on his scale of good actresses; hence, invited her to be one of his leads in "All About Love." Andy never considered Gillian; he never even mentioned Gillian period which sort of upsets me. (Correct me if I'm wrong.) I mean, Gillian is just as great of an actress or perhaps even better actress than Sa not to be mean because Gillian has shown her potential in all types of roles and characters yet Andy seems to totally not acknowledge that so in a way, Gillian can still be as successful without Andy's boost. I don't want Andy's ego to escalate by claiming to be an influential contributor in Gillian's acting career because quite frankly, Gillian can make it on her own just fine.

Ah~ Finally, Conscience Discovery could begin its promotions. I've been waiting and waiting for some time now. Hm, perhaps I can also help promote the song by producing my own MV of the song. loool.gif Well, hopefully...it will be a rocking blast on the charts.

duh.gif In second place, wasn't that the horror-like film the directors requested Gillian as the lead but instead EEG denied therefore switched to Race?? It just finally dawned on me how successful that film was after watching this clip of news which I've never seen before. If Gillian was featured in that film too, she would had gained double the amount of recognition and popularity being in both 1st and 2nd place at the box office. Race's role is quite bizarre and it seems like the only visible method these days to reveal one's true acting potential is to portray some type of weird insane individual similar to Gillian's character in BOK Ching but a full version like Race's character Jiney. Thanks for the informative clip.

Gillian's english is quite decent and doesn't carry an accent like Sa's. Gillian pronounces her english words like Californians do or wider aspect, North Americans. Haha. You know what is so ironic that I couldn't help resist feeling so much closer to Gillian?? Both of us like the song "Somewhere Out There." I remember I used to be stuck listening to that song for ages. It would be such an honor watching Gillian sing it at one of her concerts in the HK Coliseum; what a delight listening to her version. yeah.gif

A sequel sounds nice on paper but I'm uncertain how the actual production will turn out. Let's just hope that the sequel is produced due to the loose ending and not entirely due to the demand because it is wonderful news that the audience is accepting the film so well and by a large majority but hm, sequels are usually failures. At least, we know that Gillian will be participating in another film correct? happy.gif'
