In two things:
1. That despite the general consensus that The X-Files: I Want to Believe tanks, I’m still going to enjoy it and my inner X-phile will be satisfied even if nobody else will turn up at the cinemas beside myself, and possibly my two sisters and onyxx too. Roger Ebert is the only established critic to give the movie a thumbs up, and even he is now increasingly being said to be getting “soft.” Believe me, I’ll still watch it in the theater and will most probably be happy about it, based on all the spoilers I’ve read (I can already picture the whole movie in my mind by now). It will open in Philippine cinemas on August 14.
2. That Roger Federer will win the U.S. Open despite him almost surely losing his no. 1 ranking before the year ends. His most recent loss at the Rogers Cup (Toronto) this week naturally brings into question not only the end of his dominance but also his state of mind. Can he recapture the brilliance (or did his foes really just improved while he remained stagnant?) that just a year ago was so unquestionable and sublime? I only hope he’ll show heart and be a true champion, no. 1 or not; lately he’s just being surly and in denial.
What’s another word for lackluster? Never mind.

Posted by christie at August 7, 2008, 2:45 pm@ christie: cool site! thanks for the tip! I really would prefer to watch the premier at Glorietta 4 but since it’s just 2 days away from the 1st opening day, I guess I’ll just wait. I may not have time to claim premier tickets even if I’ll win those radio promos.

Re No. 2:
Win or lose, World No.1 or not, Federer is, unquestionably, still the best for me.
