Chicken Rice War is a Singaporean romantic comedy film released in 2000 by Raintree Pictures. It is an adaptation of Romeo and Juliet in a Singaporean setting,[1] where fierce competition between rival chicken rice hawkers resulted in bitter enmity. The old feud between chicken rice hawker families' stand in the way of their young offspring who fell for one another.
Chicken Rice War is loosely based on William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. In this movie the Montagues and Capulets are represented by the families Wong and Chan. Both families run Chicken Rice stalls side by side in the same market, something that the authorities say is impossible, since it is not allowed. The underlying conflict is about the secret family recipes that has been kept secret for generations, but apart from that nobody really knows what the fight is about.
Audrey Chan is a beautiful, vain and spoilt girl who is the most popular girl in school. Fenson Wong is an insecure young man with a stutter who, of course, is madly in love with Audrey. Their only common interest is Shakespeare and the version of Romeo and Juliet that they are setting up at school. When Fenson gets the chance to replace Audrey's beautiful but dim boyfriend as Romeo he starts seriously dreaming about capturing Audrey's heart.
Hello Utties,
I'm back for the holidays.. i'm in the middle of updating utt's site. just wanted to let you guy know that you can check out more media clips of UTT on youtube.com.
Just type in "Vj Utt" next
to search and you should be set to go.
INSTEAD of heading out to party, I spent my Friday night at Waterfront Hotel in Cebu, channel-surfing between late night telly offerings, shifting from "Private-I" to "Imbestigador," going through the latest infomercials and FTV, hopping on to a gospel charity show and then finally deciding to turn the tube off.
I don't get to watch that much TV, as I opt to meditate and rest as soon as I get home (from an all- night party hop, of course). I transferred the giant TV from my old flat to my maid's room for her enjoyment so whenever I do have to watch something ("The Buzz," "S Files," "Master Showman," et al), I have to squeeze into her little room to get all the boob tube action.
In that short span of airtime that I caught, I realized that hidden cameras are all the rage on late night TV, that my former British boss is the star of an infomercial (the Cambridge Diet) and that Dulce, the diva, is now co-host of "700 Club." Also on Star Movies, I found out I have a movie star look-alike in "The Touch" (Michelle Yeoh's brother, played by Brandon Chang). After I got tired of looking at my alter ego on the small screen, I decided to head out to Vudu for its Addict R&B night. It was 2 a.m., and Cebu was still hot and happening.
No such thing as too late to go out these days (except for kids with a curfew). Spontaneity is key. Listen to your body. If you feel like going out, then paint the town red. If you feel like staying home, then get a few friends together for a chillax-ing home party!
Speaking of painting the town red, I hopped by the HSBC party at Prince of Jaipur where I got to bartend to raise funds for the Cartwheel Foundation's cause. Thank heavens for good friends that the drink I concocted garnered the highest bid for the night. My bar-tending skills served me well as the girls gave me huge tips for serving them Skyy vodka all night. Now I have another career to look forward to.
On the subject of home parties, photographer-to-the-posh Victor Consunji had one at his pad (pad is an understatement). BigFish held its Motomansion party at his South Forbes home to launch Motorola's E398 phone.
As of last head count, more than 600 people had crashed his home (I don't know if his parents knew about it-well, they do now). That number is still small if you compare it with the last Pacha party at the NBC Tent, where thousands of partyphiles converged in the name of house music. "Nothing was damaged, thank God." I overheard Vic tell a friend the morning after.
Saturday, and I was off to a quiet weekend until I learned that my Singapore-based Thai buddy was in town. So in a span of a few hours, me and my bubble buddy, Ipe Cruz, held an impromptu get-together to welcome Uttsada Greg Panichcul, aka MTV VJ Utt.
We got a long table at the second floor of Nuvo and gathered other like-minded young people as we feasted on phat finger food and toasted to more exciting times ahead. How very apt, celebrating the "new and the now," since VJ Utt was here in town to tape a new show with MTV India VJ Anusha called "MTV Brand New."
MTV VJs Sarah Meier, Cindy Kurleto and KC Concepcion joined the fun as they compared notes on VJ-hood. I sensed a twinkle in Utt's eyes every time he small-talked with our KC. In fact, he was wearing a tee with the print, "Aroused." But maybe that's just me.
Later, Anusha begged me to take her to a dance place-so we all hopped over to V, where B Boy Mark Reyes was having his joint birthday party with hip and hot commercial director AF Benaza. There, a breakdance showdown ensued (expected, but nonethless breathtaking) as lovers of R&B and hip-hop had a field day on the dance floor.
Much, much later, I decided to check in at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel where we had another unplanned party-a pajama party! A friend raided his own closet to get as many pajamas as he could, and voila! Breakfast in bed, bonding and jamming (Red Box goes to Mandarin) until we all fell asleep.
Spontaneity is so underrated in this era of planned fun. Sometimes, we should just drop the take-charge attitude and simply flow on, letting the moment lead us to adventure and exploration. You'll never know what to expect.
MTV Trax: Did working in Singapore increase the number of fans in Thailand?
UTT: I already have a pretty strong fan base in Thailand, because people in Thailand have known me for nearly ten years. People just naturally come and talk to me whenever they bump into me.
MTV Trax: Some may say your book was released when lots of pocket books were released by many stars during that time.
UTT: Eventhough it was realeased during that time.. The book was more like a daily journal. My intentions was to have more people see a different side of me.
It's been awhile I hope everyone's doing good!. After 6 months I've finally finish "AfterHours" the spinoff to last year's "Chase". It was alot of fun filming this series, it's alot lighter with more laughs! Linda looks hot there's two new cast Max and Joanne Peh, you've probably seen Max on the Mtv airwaves and Joanne she's one of
Mediacorp Singapore's sweethearts. I think you'll see the chemistry once it airs which should be sometime next year.
I'm doing the fourth season of Incredible Tales next month, can you believe it's the fourth
season? It's so cool so many creepy stories out there. And you probably seen more of me
on the mtv airwaves lately.
UTT: No i'm fine the way I am I think that's an odd term I like to keep it real and take it ez and go with what I feel comfortable with ..as in choices with work and what country's I have the opportunity to work in.
UTT: No I don't have a twin I only have one younger brother who sometimes may or may not look like me epending on people's perceptions. I have friends in the biz who I may resemble and might get us mix up as brothers or one another.
