After a few months of busy no-life without movies and DVD rental, I finally got around to watching Smokin’ Aces.
The basic elements of this movie were very entertaining. It had a well chosen cast with surprisingly good acting, and a bizarre yet funny mix of characters.

DMC 4

I am such a sucker for slasher/mindless action games, and have been waiting to buy DMC 4 (PC version) for ages.
However, when it was finally released, I was stuck in the usual dilemma of weighting cost against entertainment.
But...my compulsive buying habit once again took over rationality.
Bought it this Saturday, and had a long, painful wait for installation.
When all essential items for the game-playing ritual were prepared (i.e. beer, chips...the usual stuff.), I happily took my position to start.
Then, it happened.

Pure Lady 非常女 [Taiwanese song, English translation]
This is a song sung by Fay Huang in Taiwanese, a dialect similar to the Hokkien dialect of the mainland. It's the theme song for a Pili Glove Puppetry (Budaixi) TV series character.
The character is a tragic young woman, whose name literally means "Extraordinary Lady" (translated as "Pure Lady", to signify her lovable, innocent, and courageous character).
Pure Lady first entered the underworld full of curiosity and spirit. However, she was naively deceived and raped by an evil guy while trying to reform him. Pregnant with the reincarnation of the Evil Lord, She was hunted down by both the righteous and evil sides, and was killed in the end.
[Pure Lady]
