3 versions of "Tangled" Blu-Ray on Target

The first and third is the same Blu-Ray + DVD combo set, except the latter comes with glitter logo while the former doesn't. And the middle is the 3D version.
wow.

I still love this movie, so funny and romantic too.

TWINS 10th Anniversary Album "3650" 十週年限量版Boxset

Twins 十周年紀念寫真集Boxset (Size: 橫32 x 闊25 x 高4cm)

The Limited Edition deluxe boxset (32cm x 25cm x 4cm) comes with the following:

- Twins 10th Anniversary Photo Album (160+ pages, 12cm x 16cm)

[Limited Edition Boxset / 8000 sets only worldwide]


Boxset packaging: I would appreciate if the box could hold/store everything. It's pretty much pointless to call this a 'boxset' as the box in fact just holds the photo books; the album is not included in the box but a separate one.


Twins in Cairns, Australia Photo Book: This photo book is really beautiful! I am really impressed with the art direction, make up, colours, and also the location: Australia! Twins are really pretty in most to almost all the photos, and it made me realised again how much I loved Twins. Thumbs up to the photographer and the team!

Twins 3650 Photo Book: I enjoy reading this book that included hundreds of Twins photos. It's such a good way to revise Twins' journey over the ten years.

TWINS 3650 十週年 限量版 CD Cover (One of four different covers)
P/S: Thank you YesAsia for (coincidently) picking my favourite cover! :D


Album packaging: I like the concept of re-shooting old photos for a refreshing 10th Anniversary new look, however I think the final product (album) could be better if they didn't place a sticker over an old/original photo as the album cover. It would be much better if the sticker are the old/original photo, let the fans to tear it away for their 'new look' underneath. What's more, the side of the sticker would roll up after you tear it out and replace it back.
In general, sticker cover is just a bad bad idea.

CD: I was surprised that Twins decided to release a Mandarin album to celebrate their 10th Anniversary. I believe the main reason is because Mandarin is more universal than Cantonese.
Highlights: 我們之間,你會幸福的 (Gil - composed by Gil too), Rainbow [Lyrics written by Gil; Music composed by Sa]. Other songs are just normal/common. 友愛十年 Medley is the worst (despite of new vocals, the mix is so random and unbearable).

DVD: I like "我們之間" music video the most. "The Making of 3650" is quite interesting too, even though it should have named "TV-Spot" because it's only about one minute.
I think the "友愛十年" medley music video is one of the worst compilation videos I've ever watched. The video isn't even sync with the song most of the time, why the heck the video shows other part of the original music video when it supposed to be sync with the lyrics? Other than that, why I keep seeing the irrelevant "大紅大紫" music video became the main focus of this medley? Where are the other significant music videos that 'supposed to be' in the 10th Anniversary medley? Twins have made more than 50 music videos, the video proved how lazy the editor was, and bravo for making such a cheap medley video.

10th Anniversary Photo Album: This booklet is sooo lovely! I love the re-shoots of old photos, most of them really funny and cute. I wish to see more photos though.


Overall: 7.5/10. I look forward for more releases from Twins, especially a new Cantonese album in the near future. Keep it up, Charlene & Gillian!
