Web of Lies

Occasionally I head down to the lowyat.net forums. Not really sure why, though. Being techno-incompetent since 1999, I usually stay out of those computer-related stuffs. What they do have though, is this open forum discussing basically whatever. Like 4chan, but without desu. Of course, being Malaysian (and like 4chan), everything degenerates pretty rapidly into a savage, bum-clenching pub fight of chaos, illiteracy and ignorance. It's the internet equivalent of going into a math class and getting repeatedly punched in the nose by a four-armed man reciting the Magna Carta in Urdu.

It's great.

Amidst the bloody pwnings and granting of internets, this chap Chewxy invites me to check out his movie project. Not a bad way to while a bit of the summer holidays, plus I've never seen something being filmed before, apart from 'The Towers' soap they made back in Essex with me being the token Asian, which was axed when the third-year chaps left. A shame, though. I was going to be this gambling fiend that slagged off his girlfriend and bedded another chick. Damn shame.

Whatever. So, I took off to see the fellow who was just a few scenes short of wrapping everything up. Just a few fight scenes, a park rendezvous scene, a blowjob scene, a chess-playing scene, and the bit where my silhouette gets poked with a knife. All done within a couple of nights, which was ace. The girls in it were cuties, too, and that's even better.


Minor secret mini-game in there, too.

Basically, the story is about a string of murders, whose sole evidence lies within a string of blog entries. Now it takes a private eye, his cute button-nosed secretary and wits to wade through the screen of internet anonymity to capture the dastardly culprit. It's like what the FBI does to anon in 4chan, but without no party vans. Nor CP, for that matter.

Haven't really seen the thing, to be honest. Was in Essex, Aussies having their summer holidays in December. Madness.
