I watched Transformers 2 Revenge Of The Fallen for the second time today.It was just a totally great movie. Sure it wont win any academy awards for anything aside from this years greatest movie effects for 2009 but it was what I was looking forward for as would any other transformer fan.The most memorable part of the movie was its ending where the new and improved version of optimus prime kicks the crapt out of the fallen and megatron.Megatron looses half of his face and retreats with star scream faster than Megan Fox screen lines.

Optimus has always been the definitive of a great leader for me even from its G1 animated series.So here's something he left for us from Transformers 2 Revenge Of The Fallen.

"Fate rarely calls upon us at a moment of our choosing." -Optimus Prime

That is so right man...

Gamer the movie

Cool upcoming movie "gamer the movie" starring Gerard Butler(King Leonidas from the 300). Set in the future , gaming has finally reach its pinnacle , after years of playing RPG games our sick fantasy has come true where a human may play another human in a cold blooded rpg game.
Mind-control technology has made it possible for people to allow gamers to control human prisoners(guys on death row) in a mass-scale deathmatches, if an inmate lives through 30 matches then he wins his freedom. A kid name Simon role plays Kable(Gerard Butler) the multiplayer on-line game called "Slayers" champion of the game having won 27 matches and lived through them all,

Kable ,with his every move tracked by millions, goes through hell to regain his identity and independence by defeating the game's mastermind (Michael C. Hall)through launching an attack on the system that has imprisoned him.[1]

I watched Terminator:Salvation at GSC 1-Utama

(Picture take from Wikipedia)
I finally got to watch Terminator Salvation last Sunday and that sir for me is the movie of the year.It continues from the previous sequal Terminator 3:Rise of the Machine and starts off with a cool opening title sequance that I feel is maybe a tribute towards all computer programmer's throughout the world as the movie introduces all the movie actors names using programming syntax.

Sam Worthington (plays Marcus Wright)waits inline for death row in 2003 while feeling all guilty about himself and the things he had done. Here,Dr. Serena Kogan (Helena Bonham Carter) of Cyberdyne Systems convinces him to sign his body over for medical research following his execution by lethal injection. Soon after his execution we all go back to the future in 2018 and here is where all the fun starts. The resistance team lead by John Connor (Christian Bale) attacks a Skynet base and man oh man the explosion effects here is truly phenomenal. The THX sound effects used in this movie is worth every last dollar of your ticket.Get a seat in the huge cinema(Cinema 2 in GSC 1-Utama in my case) with a good THX equiped cinema or you are not doing this movie any good. The explosion sequence is so good i almost wanted to turn around and duck for cover. The movies explosion effects is just awesome. No green screen or any cheap CGI is used for the explosion scene which makes this movie memorable.


So back to John Conner, after he leads some of his team down a huge underground Skynet base , he and his men finds some humans taken prisoner in a cage and finds the design for new terminator model(T-800,Arnold Schwarzenegger model). Interestingly enough we could see John Connor Flashes his flash light around and we get to see find Sam Worthingtons dead body.He calls his men topside but got no response co he decides to climb out of the base to checkup on the communications but finds his men dead. He walks some distance to find the rest of his crew but then a huge nuclear explosion blows up the skynet base along with his men down under along with other survivors. He runs to the helicopter and finds the pilot dead , so he flies out on his own only to crash again upside down due to the explosion.You could experience the crash almost like you were in the chopper with him. The sight of the huge mushroom dust cloud after nuclear explosion was damn awesome. I would watch this movie again just for this first 10 minutes of the movie. Its just simply damn awesome.

For the rest of the movie , you guys should just watch it. Its not as gruesome as any other movie but just damn awesome. The Skynets T-600 terminator machines are just damn awesome and scary to look at especially when they are slinging and firing humans around with a 50 caliber machine guns. The Harvester is a huge bad ass robot like almost 40 feet high starts to capture human s to transport them to Skynet for human experiments. The Huge cannon on the harversters shoulders just blast the hell out of the vehicles that tries to escape him. If the target is too far he deploys the mototerminator from both his legs that races down like ducatti's on steroids just like the scene where it chases down after Sam Worthington and Kyle reese(Young John conners dad) in a truck. The bikes were just awesome.

Christian Bale was great at playing the legendary John Connor the resistance leader.He played with close intention to the true characters colors especially when he was blasting his guns at the terminators. Sam Worthington played Marcus Wright well too. He tries to blow up the Harvesters with a fuel tank and fights with the T-800. Damn cool ending scene where John Connor with Sam Worthington blows the base up to kingdom come as they fly off on a chopper.

Watch the movie and within 10 minutes of the movie ,you'd swear you want to watch it again!!

I went and saw Angels & Demons at GSC

Posted by Stephen of ibelin | 9:18 PM | | 2 comments »


So yesterday I was bored and wanted to watch Terminator Salvation but when i got to my local GSC in 1-Utama guess what happen

Damn long queue. The picture above shows where I was at when I was queuing up to buy a ticket. I got there like 3.00 pm something but waited for almost an hour to get to the counter. Then When i got there guess again, there wasn't any seats left unless the first 2 rows of the cinema , and its all booked to 12 midnight. I was willing to get even 7.45 8.00 or even 9.00 pm but cannot get so i bought the tickets for the next day instead. But not willing to spoil the day for me and my dad, we watched Angels and demons instead for that day.


SO angels and demon , truth be told its not fantastic but its certainly way better than Da Vinci Code. The title "Angels and Demons " does not really reflect the movie at all nor the Catholic religion any way. Its more towards an ancient Illuminatti society back to screw the roman chatolic church. And Tom Hanks (Dr.Robert Langdon) is summon by the recently deceased pope's assistant Ewan McGregor (Camerlengo Patrick McKenna). I could summarize up the movie in 3 steps.

1) Robert Langdon starts to follow a series of clues to find the illuminatti that kidnaps the 4 future pope candidates. The society start to execute each pope through the means of four science medium which are earth, fire ,water and wind and will execute the last cardinal at midnight. All but one survives(water).

2) Ewan Mcgregor starts to find the cause of his beloved pope death when he finds out the pope was poison. Starts to give ideas on how to saved the church to everyone and to find the stolen anti-matter container which was stolen at the earlier part of the movie. If they cant find it by mid night , the container will explode and blow , vatican , rome and italy to kingdom come.

3) To summarize the finale, Ewan Mcgregor was the culprit from the beginning of the movie and was the cause of the earlier popes death and the guy responsible with Illuminati. Robert langdon and ironically Ewan Mcgregor saves the day but Ewan Mcgregor in the end commits suicide(set him self on fire)when he found out that everyone found out his jig was up.

All in all the movie was something better than I expected especially Ayelet Zurer (movie hotty)who played Dr.Vittoria Vetra as some particle accelerator scientist. The movie has a cool starting scene with the new swiss particle accelerator generator to produce anti matter, and you could see all of the Vatican's peter's square, castles and almost all of the Vatican city.

Aside from that its a good movie to watch for adults and might bore the snot out of kids.

Night at the Museum:Battle of the Smithsonian

(Taken from wikipedia)
I watched Night at the Museum:Battle of the Smithsonian last week Wednesday at GSC Pavilion.
All in all its was fun and entertaining and its much better than the first one.

Ben Stiller is back but this time as a successful inventor/owner/entrepreneur with a huge company. He goes back to his old night guard museum and finds the curators packing up the exhibits and moving them to the Smithsonian archives.

The rest of the movie is a historical adventure all the way (literally). You should watch it first hand instead and you will know what I mean. Hank Azaria was hilarious as the evil pharaoh especially when he mocks Darth Vader when he wanted to join his evil team. Another scene i remembered was when he says to Ben stiller that he has come back alive from the death like 3 times, really loudly and in a deep voice to really impress Ben , but Ben was like having a "so?" and unimpressed expression.That was seriously funny.
Amy Adams
Amy Adams was excellent as Amelia Earhart. She was hot ,adventurous and funny and I was more keen in seeing what she tends to do instead of Ben Stiller.
Ben Stiller
Ben Stiller on the other hand was great reprising his role as a night guard again especially the scene where he helps to teach the rookie simthsonian night guard his cool night guard tricks and his fancy torch light moves (LOL). Robin Williams reprises his role as the wise President Theodore rosevelt ,Owen Wilson was back as Jedediah again while , Steve coogan was back as Octavious. The absolute best scene i can remember from the movie was when Jedediah and Octavious took swords and started slashing the feets of the pharohs men. It was in slow mo moves stabbing and slicing ala Spartan's 300 style , damn good and funny, hehehhe.Along side them are Genreal Custer,Atila and the previous guys from the first movie.

The 3-D effects was an absolute treat. If you want funny, see this movie, if you want 3d effects see this movie , if you want a really complicated story watch Angels and demons but I promise you , you wont get as entertained as Night at the Museum:Battle of the Smithsonian.

P.S I loved the frozen scene where Ben finds Hank Azaria and his scary men like statues ready to charge and spear the other frozen guys. Its a Ben stiller movie and its bound to be funny.







I watched "The Beast" last night on AXN channel and I was total blown away. What I watched was a great films grade quality movie made to a television series. The story goes about unorthodox FBI guy Charles Baker (Patrick Swayze) taking in a new rookie Ellis Dove (Travis Fimmel) as his partner. And believe it or not within 30 seconds of the start of the series Patrick Swayze shoots him with a gun twice. The partnership between them is definitely not ala "Starsky and Hutch". Baker cant afford to have a moment hesitations from his new rookie. He trains Ellis with hard violent psychological which even made me felt like shouting out loud to at Ellis the end of the episode.The pilot episode was like a mix between slevin, dirty harry and enemy of the gates. Its something not suitable for the kids but can definitely kick out some crime scene investigator out of their lab. Its not too technical , not to slow nor is there too much blabbering going on.

Patrick Swayze was awesome and scary at the same time playing Charles Baker. Ellis looks like a real rookie here but has the played the role well that could match any big time hollywood star. I could not believe he played Tarzan in New York.

The Beast is dark, serious and yet some how it gets you glued to the tube to know what will happen next.

Inspired by The Transporter 3

Inspired by The Transporter 3

JASON STATHAM ,COOL FIGHT MOVES and AUDI S8 V12

Its a Typical transporter movie where bad guy hires frank martin(jason) to send something across Europe except with a twist. He get strapped with a wrist device that blows him up if he exceeds 75 feet from his car.

So what to expect from the movie? Action stuff,Jason kicks multiple french and Ukrainian butts, Jason drives the cool Audi S8 and finally Jason blows the bad guy to smithereens with always a spare tux around with him. Honestly, the movie seems to feel a bit better from Transporter 2 but with all the good stuff intact.Overall its a no brainer movie with some good tricks. I would recommend it to anyone wants to see a cool guy who drives a cool car. The last bit of the movie is the best part of it all.

I haven't posted any spoilers for the movie cause almost 10 minutes into the movie I'm pretty sure you could work it out to about 80% accurate.

But there was something that kept me inspired.Audi A8 W12.

Which why I came up with this desktop background.Cool huh?Well after a movie like that I truly needed to do something to support the movie.

RED AUDI A8 W12
