Woot! This was such an awesome movie! Totally worth going (masked and cautious) to a movie theater. And nostalgic for me, because it brought me back to my Hong Kong phase in college and reminded me why I loved those movies.
Continue readingThis Was a Totally Exhausting Weekend, I Am Retreating to Sid M’s Instagram
Why is one large party on Saturday and one family lunch today so incredibly tiring? Probably something about socializing and emotion and stuff. Anyway, Eva’s had a wonderful emotional weekend (yaaaaay, new daughter!), Courtney has had a terrible emotional weekend (booo, romantic break-up), and I’ve had kind of a neutral emotional weekend (100th birthday party), so let’s look at Sid M!

Good news, Bang Bang is on Hulu! Bad news, it doesn’t have English subs. Okay news, you can complain about this be emailing captions-feedback@hulu.com with details. As I have done. And I have a faint hope they will fix it within the next few days, and I am almost sure they will fix it eventually. Anyway, Einthusan has subs.
