KL International Motorshow 2006

Wednesday, May 31st, 2006

P1010902 I just got back from KLIMS. My feet are still aching and my back hurts. I bought the Student Price ticket for RM5. Good bargain but you can’t get into the lucky draw to win the Smart ForFour. You can get that if you pay Rm15 full adult price. What’s the odds of winning anyway.

Overall, it’s really good. I spent aroun d 3 hours walking through the whole exhibition. If I was’nt tired and have’nt run out of batteries for my camera, I’d spend another 2 hours. I don’t even mind spending my whole day there. Exhibits in the first two halls are so-so. The only highlights were Lotus APX and Lotus Europa at the Proton booth. When you get to Renault’s booth..it gets progressively better.

At the Honda exhibition, they said something about a special guest. I initially thought its jenson Button but then this small thing came out…It’s ASIMO! There’s really nothing cool about a robot walking up and down stairs. But every1 just stood there in amazement. I had to do the same as it’s a Malaysian ‘thing’ to look at things that others are looking at.P1010932

The final exhibition has to be the most expensive collection of cars in Malaysia. There’s Bentleys, Ferarri, Pagani Zonda and Porche Carerra GT.

The showgirls are also a sight to be hold. Some of them are really nice but some are better off chatting with some guy than taking time to take pictures. I like the Volb\vo girls. If you do go, don’t forget to get as many free stuff as possible. Make sure it’s worth your ticket price.  P1010923

KLIMS 06 is definitely a must go this year!

Superman Returns

Tuesday, May 30th, 2006

I watched the new trailer for Superman a few days a go. I’m very impressed. The 1st teaser was’nt really good. It actually put me off from watching it…unlike the teaser for X3.

The new trailer actually shows what to expect. It’s literally ‘Superman Returns’. He came back from somewhere (I guess). Pardon me for my ignorance but Superman is not my favourite superhero. And the new guy does’nt seem ’super’ enough. Might as well get Tom Welling (Smallville). The outfit is also too retro…it’s like the old Batman series.

Superman Returns premiers on 30th June (i think). There’s also rumour that David Coulthard will play Superman in ‘SUPERMAN RETURNS AGAIN’ after his amazing podium finish in Monaco.

X Men: The Last Stand

Sunday, May 28th, 2006

X3page This is definitely a must see this summer movie season. I would’nt mind watching it again. It is by far the best movie in the past 2 months.
It’s pure enjoyment from start till the end. It is best if you watched X2: X-Men United prior to this. There’s quite a lot of suprises.
Most probably this is the last movie of the X-Men series. Unlike MI:3 all the characters in this movie get sort of an equal screen time.
Of course Hugh Jackman got the spotlight as Wolverine but you can actually see each mutant’s powers.

X3

It starts off with how Xavier found Jean Grey 20 years ago. And then we’re introduced to Angel. Angel plays an important role in this movie
as its his dad that found ‘the cure’ for mutants. However we can only see Angel in 3 scenes. He’s not even an X-Men.
In the not too distant future, the cure spawns rage from the mutants. Magneto takes advantage of the situation and gathers the
Brotherhood of Mutants comprising of ‘bad’ mutants such as Jugernaut and this chick that looks like a man with a stupid looking outfit.
The climax of X3 is the face off between X-Men and The Brotherhood. Its kinda like wathching the battle scenes in Lord of The Rings and
Chronicles of Narnia.
I particularly like what happens to Xavier, Mystique, and Rogue…I’d love to elaborate but it’ll piss people off.
Do look out for Kitty Pryde (Ellen Page). She looks kind of cute in this movie.

Its an 8 out of 10!
