Because this is when Oscar-campaigning starts and this is when the best movies of the year start to be released. It’s also when the critics release their Best-of-2011 lists.
As many universes as Channel 8 is away from Hollywood, it’s always when I am reminded why I do what I do.

Can you believe I have done only one fight scene so far? Before this we were doing all the “wen xi”. Tomorrow starts the real battle, all the way till the end of production late Jan. Am fully prepared for the worst with ice, a pharmacy-worthy supply of various deep heats, medicated oil, and a (literal) Shao Lin miracle worker Chinese doctor’s number on standby.
We are filming the big scenes on Christmas eve, Christmas day, New Years Eve and New Years Day. So while you guys are enjoying your Xmas dinners and all, take a moment and shed a tear for this poor soldier who will be in some ulu pandan corner of SG covered in sweat, dirt and much worse.
And yes, in order to counter the major depressive side effects of filming a script this sad and dark, me and my zui huo da dang have resorted to collapsing into fits of giggles for no reason whatsoever. These fits leave most of the crew puzzled and surprised since nothing conceivable causes them. These fits have been filmed and recorded but hopefully will never see the light of day.
Stay tuned for more updates from the frontline……….

Stage 2 of the nominations is here!!!!!!!!
We wanna hear your nomination wishlist for 2 awards this festive week:
Favourite Female Character 最喜爱女角色
Favourite Onscreen Couple 最喜爱è§å¹•æƒ…ä¾£
These two awards are by online voting only, so we are expecting the legions of youth fans to rally behind their favourite artistes to help them win the awards! (Online voting period is from March – Apr, dates to be released later) But they need to be nominated before they can get your vote, so tell us!
Being online awards, will the ‘trend 到ä¸æ¸…ä¸æ¥šâ€˜ youth drama On The Fringe 边缘父å get the teen actors some nominations? Showbiz has a very short memory; will fans still remember them? We don’t know! What we do know is that Kim Chia/Edwin Goh/Ian Fang each have a huge fanbase who will retweet their every tweet, will this be enough? Tell us on Twitter, Facebook and 微薄!
Last year’s winners Rui En and Elvin Ng also traditionally do well online, so they may each garner support for nominations in the individual Male/Female categories, as well as the Ruivin pairing in Code of Honour æ£ä¹‰æ¦é¦†! Did you also remember Elvin’s role in C.L.I.F. as the laidback & adorable Sgt Teo å¼ è´µç¥¥, or Rui En’s role as the long-suffering 茶碗蒸 in The In-Laws with Pierre Png?
Did we miss out any AWESOME Female/Couples?
