Hollywood's Ending -- yes, at least it may look so in Hong Kong. The HK theatre admission rate has been going thru a downward spiral for long time. This year, I can't even remember if I have seen a HK movie in the theatre! Movie tickets on Tuesday and Wednesday have been discounted from HK$65 to HK$25 (yes, more than a 50% discount) but still not much people go to the theatre! Blame it on piracy and blame it on the economy or blame it on Wong Jing (who have been mass producing crap comedies that drain the last drop of water from the local movie pool).
It has been a long break for me from the blogging scenes. Last week, I went to Japan to prepare for my wedding. Having some headache on assigning people to table and inviting children/baby for the wedding. In some sense, the wedding was meant to be PG-13, not that it has content not suitable for children, but because of the solemn and quiet nature of the Japanese wedding ceremony and banquet. And it turns out to be really difficult to enforce.
