[Calvin’s confrontation with Sunny]
Sunny: So you came back here, no wonder I couldn’t see you this afternoon. Is something wrong?
Calvin: Yes. I realised the woman I love is with my very good friend. Do you think there’s something wrong?
I am so dead tired at the moment, so I gotta leave this short.. (just got back from work and its 11pm as I type)…came home, and to my surprise…Ray’s Concert DVD is finally out!! YAY!!!
Just had to post up my excitement haha!! And there’s so many versions too! -DVDs, live CD , DVD+ Specials : D XD Can’t decide which one I wanna get!! Check them out!
You can pre-order your copy online @ YesAsia.com, and its expected to be released from 1-3 August ^^ I can’t wait to get mine!!! XD looking forward to seeing him dance and sing his first concert!! <3
This is the official movie trailer for Laughing’s Movie!! I think it looks great! The cast looks awesome and storyline looks promising!! It really does feel like a movie with Anthony Wong, Eric Tsang etc in it. I also heard that Wayne has been given a large role in it with short notice due to his success in Rosy Business ^^ Would definitely be interesting to them both in the same movie! (likely both to compete for some TVB award at the end of the year :D) I’m also happy to see some more familiar TVB actors in there, like Fala Chen (and anticipating Ron and Sammul’s cameo appearance haha)

[Blog Entries]– Selected Scenes-
Extras
A thought continued to loaf around my head after completing this 27 Episode drama (HK version). As the overseas version has 30 episode, which scenes were taken out? There’s bound to be lots of scenes cut throughout!
I think it will take a lot of time to compare the two versions (i.e by watching both and seeing the differences) so I thought it would be easier to ask everyone here lol Are you aware of any scenes? Please share! ^_^
As it is still currently airing on TVBJ Australia, I spotted one while passing the tv today!
1. There was a scene before Natalie’s daughter’s interview and Yoyo is teaching the girl what to say etc and we see Natalie all nervous, choosing her clothes for the interview etc because she really wants the best for her daughter. Later, due to grandma’s cooking, Natalie becomes really unwell, and was unable to attend. In the HK version, this scene was cut and we only see the interview scene with Yoyo where she mentions that Natalie was sick. To be honest when I watched that scene (HK version), I thought it seemed a bit weird (a lie?) since they never showed us the cut scene with Natalie beforehand ^^
I found another one while browsing the net. There was an extra scene with Roger talking to Yoyo the night before HeiHei’s school family event, where he tells her that Claire has been listening to all his calls all along and knows/hopes that Claire will appear tomorrow…
And finally…I noticed one where one second was cut off XD (Pretty insignificant though lol) In the scene where Kenny tells Claire to go back to Roger, after she leaves, there is one more shot of Kenny ^_^;;
Warning: Contains Major Spoilers!! [All my posts contain spoilers, but this is overview of the series, so an extra warning message ^__^]
I just finished watching the series! I think this series had a lot of potentials. I loved how the characters linked with each other and the story dealt with immigration from a variety of perspectives and jobs- different departments all working together. They had several joint operations, involving the police force/investigator’s to arrest those criminals leading the illegal immigrants in & hacking the system through fake IDs. Overall I enjoyed watching the series, but I felt the story was rushed in many aspects; yet slow and dragged at others. It’s something about the pacing I’m not quite happy with. The story does get better towards the end when things start intertwining together more. It was a happy ending for all (but it also felt a bit..rushed?)
Relationship development which I found kinda draggy (and had too much emphasis):
-Toby’s relationship with her dad
-John with his wife
-Roger and Claire to some extent (at the earlier stages)
Storyline/Relationships
Roger/Claire/Yoyo
Roger plays a nice guy- a devoted husband to Claire, loving father and a man who genuinely cares about the people around him (seems to describe Patrick too XD). His character isn’t flawless though- and like every other person, he has weaknesses which I found quite realisitc. When Claire’s secret was revealed, he was torn and in denial- he would not accept the fact his wife had been a prostitute before and was unable to cope or face his wife anymore. He tried, he really did try to forgive her and accept her for who she is and tried to make the relationship work -perhaps move away and start a new life. He had suspicions in him- whether there was something going on between his wife and Kenny (Mafia leader) and the self doubt took over him. He starts breaking down, and his marriage was at stake. We saw the weak and insecure side of him. deep down he was unhappy- he wasn’t ready for it. He couldn’t deal with it all- including the fact it was released all over gossip magazines and people kept bringing up the issue. Under the persuasion of Roger’s mother, Claire left him and he didn’t have the courage to hold her. his biggest regret was not holding her back from leaving. He let her go. Clearly though, he needed the time. As with all things, time heals as he slowly brought his life back together, growing as a person and wining back his father-son relationship. What I admired most about Roger’s character was despite all difficulties, he remained persistent and kept trying- never giving up. He kept trying to win his wife back when she returns later on in the series- however, she was already with Kenny. I thought it was touching how he didn’t fight back Kenny when he started beating him up because he said Claire doesn’t like him fighting other people. After all his efforts though, it finally paid off and that scene was very touching!(hugging at the rubbish dump lol) I am most moved by his love, dedication & commitment to his wife. I really did feel happy for both of them!

Synopsis
王老虎抢亲
Foolhardy TIGER WONG (Chin Kar Lok) is annoyed with his mother LAU BING TAI (Gigi Wong) for consistently pressuring him to get married. He therefore snatches CHOW MAN BUN (Sammul Chan) who is in female disguise to be his bride and arranges for BUN to stay at his younger sister WONG SAU YING (Nancy Wu)’s chamber for the night. After this, TIGER has no choice but to marry YING to BUN while setting up strict rules to torture BUN in the house. Clever BUN makes use of the chivalrous woman MO SAM LEUNG ( Louisa So) to control TIGER and misleads LEUNG that TIGER is her long lost rescuer. Using tricks to upset TIGER, he makes TIGER marry LEUNG. Since then, LEUNG tries every means to domesticate her husband and that almost drives him insane. BUN is relieved to escape from TIGER’s manipulation but he carelessly causes lots of troubles elsewhere. “A Bride for A Ride” brings you a modern perspective of this traditional tale and you’ll surely be surprised with its astonishing approach.
