TRAILER: TEASER FOR JAMES BOND'S SKYFALL

noreply@blogger.com (Bernard Chung) — Mon, 21 May 2012 10:18:00 +0000

Photo credit: Slash Film

"Skyfall" will not rank one of the weirdest movie titles been given for any James Bond movies. Considering the talents that have been working behind Bond 23 or now officially known as "Skyfall", there is no doubt that this will put that sourly tasted "Quantum of Solace" to its coffin for rest. "Skyfall" takes into a journey much high up into the hierarchy of both the MI6 and the secret organization known as "Quantum". Today, Sony Pictures and MGM have revealed the first trailer for this upcoming Bond saga, starring none other than Daniel Craig as the Agent 007 himself. The teaser trailer is available right after the jump.

GOLDEN SCREEN CINEMAS (GSC) 25th ANNIVERSARY DINNER

noreply@blogger.com (Bernard Chung) — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 12:38:00 +0000

This is taken completely from the press release. Please forgive me for the delay in posting this up:

More than 750 guests from the Malaysian cinema industry were treated to a lavish Western sit down dinner as leading cinema exhibitor, Golden Screen Cinemas (GSC) celebrated its Silver Anniversary this year. I guess I must say that it is an honor of attending this event, feels like I'm so big gun dude like that...oh well!

Held on April 20, the dinner served as a mark of appreciation for GSC business partners both foreign and local, associates and members of the media as GSC marks its 25 year journey from the year 1997 when Golden Communications and Cathay Cinemas were merged as the biggest single entity in the Malaysian cinema entertainment business. Those were the history but what is more important is what will the future goes for GSC.

The dinner was hosted in Sime Darby Convention Centre, Bukit Kiara and seen mingling amongst the guests were movie characters like Star Wars’ “White Troopers”, Martial Arts Maiden –‘”Chun Li”’ ,” Batman’ and “Predator”. In his welcome speech, GSC Chairman Gen (Rtd) Tan Sri Dato’ Mohd Ghazali Seth thanked everyone for their continued support . Also present was GSC Board of Directors, Mr. Tan Gee Sooi, Ms. Leong Choy Ying and Ms. Koh Mei Lee.

Seen at the event was Mr. Irving Chee (GSC General Manager), Mr. Stephane Dovert (Cultural Counsellor, Embassy of France) and his wife, Agnes Dovert (Alliance Francaise), Toyoda Shoici ( Director, Japan Foundation), En Mohd Naguib Razak (Finas) and En Zulkifle Abd Wahab (Finas).

Amongst the local personalities present were Jack Lim (Ah Beng The Movie fame), Aniu, Chris Tong, Rashidi Ishak, Federick Lee and Jojo Goh.

The guests for the night were treated to a special performance by the dynamic Syafinaz Selamat and the PUTERA group, followed by a lively dance performance Broadway Dancers.

Earlier this month, GSC gave out 25,000 free tickets to public to mark its anniversary day on April 1st. GSC will be organizing activities throughout the year in conjunction with its 25th anniversary celebrations which includes a nationwide contest, Carnival Saturdays in key locations and a major CSR project this year.

Also debuting in the events are some of the new uniforms for the GSC crews which you will be able (supposedly) to see beginning tomorrow.

Once again, thanks GSC for the treat!

SIR BEN KINGSLEY A VILLAIN IN IRON MAN 3?

noreply@blogger.com (Bernard Chung) — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 05:53:00 +0000

May 2012 will not only see the arrival of The Avengers to the big screen but the beginning for the production of the third Iron Man movies.

Not a complete casting I would say considering the villain role is still blank out there.

Let’s go right after the jump to see what villainous role Ben Kingsley is in talks with.

Green Tea Movie received one press release from Golden Screen Cinemas (GSC) and thought that it would be a fool not to share this to everyone. For those who are observant or recently just had a short trip to the GSC's website or its official Facebook page, you will be greeted with one simple photo that carries the caption of "28 million people. Only 25,000 will make it. Will you be one of them?" For others, they might have be thinking this could be an April Fool's joke since the caption also states that it will be "coming to GSC, this 1st April."
