After helping my sifu for birthday shooting at Restaurant Puteri (my 1st official birthday party shooting)

I went for a movie at Damansara Cineplex, yes, the premier show of The Mummy (Tomb of the Dragon Emperor)

Well, what can i say, after all these years, this is the 1st time I watching movie alone. Kinda like those old days during teenager time whereby no girls wanna go out with me, I will either ask my bro to accompany me or go watch movies alone. Yeah I know it is lame.

Back to this movie review. After year 1999, The Mummy, all the continue series are nothing but a purely action pack without strong storyline movie to me. Brendan Fraser was a hope to replace Indiana Jones series in my heart and this year both The Mummy and Indiana Jones can only called as “entertaining” movies to me.

All of the sudden, I felt Brendan is getting old, Michelle Yeoh, Jon Hannah, Jet Li are all getting old, and I think me too….all the movies stars that I know even Harrison Ford….

okok, back to the movie…lets see, I really appreciate how they can link the china ancient Qin Shi Huang to their Mummy stories series. The animation is good, actions is great…just like i said, an entertaining movie, If you have extra 2 hours to spend, go get a ticket and watch it, if you are like me, thousands of photos to be edited, please… save your time, get back on your workstation, and do your jobs…

About Edwin Tan

Yes, this is a dream to me, I daydream a lot and let me share with you a few of my dreams here. I always dream of creating a website to record every moments of my life and share with my kiddo when their grow up one day and also dream about carrying my cameras and travel around the world, see the world thru my eye,yes, I love travel, it is my ultimate dream to travel around the world, learning thru travel is the best dream I ever have. Dream is an initial point to me. It help me to look at what I really want in my life. As Malaysia Wedding Photographer with international wedding photography membership (WPJA, AGWPJA, WPPI & PPA), I started my photography passion at the end of year 2007. Like most of the beginners, I was purely having fun with my DSLR capturing my family members portraits and events. After attend the talk by one of the master wedding photographer, it change my whole world. I was so touched by the slideshow shown on the projector for the showcase of prewedding and church wedding, the touching moments, the dramatic angles, all these impact was so strong that it hit direct into my heart and awake my passion towards wedding photography. From there onwards, I have focus all my passion on wedding photography and never feel more satisfied when I capture the moments for couple which last for a life time. Whenever I imagine the couple looking back those photos captured by me in ten, fifteen years from now and think, "yeah, that was the moments" "look, how silly you was!" "oh, I cried when I first saw you walks down the aisle i", "yes, I remember what your dad told me that day when he placed your hand in my right hand from his arm after walks down the aisle".. all these keep my heart warm and keep me going on & on for this long path without a single regret or tiredness ...
