I've seen "Painted Skin" once already, but I was recently able to see the director's version. I didn't notice much differences (unfortunately - looks like the editors did a good job, so there wasn't much cut out). The movie is not as scary as some people think it is, not really scary at all, in my opinion.

I barely recognized actress, Betty Sun (孫儷) previously, I had only seen her in Jet Li's "Fearless".

Here is one of music videos from the movie (sung by hottie Jane Zhang (張靚穎 - I think she's really pretty and a great singer).

Here's a longer version of the music video (but no Jane Zhang!).

Anyway, for those who don't know, there's a sequel being made.

A Moment to Remember (내 머리 속의 지우개)

I have watched the Korean movie, A Moment to Remember (내 머리 속의 지우개), years ago, but I recently was able to watch the Director's Cut (which is about 27 minutes longer). Although some critics say this movie is nothing more than a advertisement for Coke Cola or a long music video, it's definitely still one of my favorite Korean movies. Very sad though - one of the saddest movies, I've ever watched. Makes me wonder if I'll develop Alzheimer's disease (阿茲海默病) and become a burden to those around me.

A Moment to Remember (내 머리 속의 지우개 literally Eraser in My Head) is a 2004 South Korean film based on a 2001 Japanese television drama Pure Soul broadcast by Yomiuri Telecasting Corporation. It stars Son Ye-jin and Jung Woo-sung. A Moment to Remember follows the theme of discovery in a relationship and the burdens of loss caused by Alzheimer's disease. (from Wikipedia).

I also like the Original Soundtrack (OST). It has some acoustic guitar, piano, some light jazz, and some classic music.

Here's the trailer with Japanese subtitles.

Koshonin 交渉人 (Season 2)

I enjoyed the first season / series of Koshonin - it's a Japanese drama about Usagi Reiko, a woman Negotiator (usually hostage situations, but other situations often come into the series, such as attempted suicides and mad bomber types). The lead character is played by Ryoko Yonekura. Some people know her from the Japanese movie, "Gun Crazy". Like lots of people, I think she's very pretty.

Anyway, I was able to find part of the Koshonin season/ series 2 on-line and I watched it. I ended up buying the Malaysian release on DVD. That's because most Japanese movies and TV dramas released in Japan don't have English subtitles and my Japanese language knowledge is severely illiterate. The Malaysian releases DO have English subtitles.

One thing I like about the series is that as the story progresses, the "bad guys" get more sinister and it's up to Usagi to figure out how to get out of a bad situation.

That's the only video clip I could find on youtube.com. I was able to figure out who was the real "Summer Claus" before they revealed it. I need to get the Koshonin movie and watch that.

米倉涼子 Ryoko Yunekura and Epson

Since I only know/ understand a few Japanese words, it took me a minute to figure out this Epson projector commercial (okay, I admit I was watching Ryoko Yonekura). It's showing that they have a one button keystone correction.
