Movie that I hope dies horribly

You know there are somethings that just annoy you for no reason, like:

(a) Obscenely expensive and pretentious handbags;
(b) People who used words like "rambunctious" in arguments;
(c) Local girls whose only aspiration in life is to be a tai-tai and hang out at Goodwood Park Hotel to discuss handbags over tea / crossiant / ridiculously small sandwiches
(d) Local girls and their ang moh boyfriends who carry their poodle (who the fuck is stupid enough to own a poodle?) to parks and pretend that they live an elitist lifestyle
(e) People who ask me to "adduce evidence". I mean, which fucker still use such archaic language for God's sake? Not even British lawyers use such old phrase nowadays. "I have to adduce evidence to prove the existence of this strong upswing of market . . . blah blah". Adduce my ass.

and

(f) Movies like Titanic and Leap Years

It is very seldom that I wish death on a movie / producer / actresses. But Leap Years is one movie in which I wanted everyone to die. Wong Li Ling, Joan Chen and all the beautiful actresses in the movie must all die a horrible death. It is one of those movies that hit you with all, and I mean ALL, the love bullshit. I felt like I have aged 20 years just sitting through the trailer. At the end of it, I felt like drinking detergent to end it all. Bcos, what is the point of living? What is the point of supporting local movies if after a decade, Raintree could only produce unmitigated and undiluted crap like Leap Years where it relies solely on pretty/handsome actors/actresses to anchor the movie?

The worst thing is that the trailer ended off by saying that "we have to watch it this time bcos otherwsie, we have to wait four more years". Tell you what, I will happily wait 40 years.

The only way I watch this movie is if someone tells me everyone dies in the end after being run over by a truck. Again. And again. And then everyone gets shot in the face.

Yeah.

I am (a), hoping to get into (c) except that I much prefer huge buffet spread to tiny sandwiches.
