Movie: Vampire Suck

[Sponsored Review]





I am sure many of you love watching comedies, or even spoofs of popular titles. Vampires Suck is both a comedy and spoof of twilight produced by JASON FRIEDBERG & AARON SELTZER. Twilight fans might hate it and anti fans might love it. 

I myself am a fan of the books and can’t wait to see how this comedy spoof of the series will turn out. I have watched the trailer and am widely amused. I believe it’s quite a good show for laughter, just don’t take it too seriously and I am sure people will actually enjoy the show.

From the trailer, I see that the movie includes the fan girls of Edward and Jacob.  I think it’s quite smart to add in the fan girls as it’s a very amusing thing to see the fan girls fight it.

I would love to catch this movie soon and tell you all how I find it.
You can check out the official site of Vampires Suck to find out more! XD

On Board the Coke Bus for the YOG Torch Relay

Thanks to Coca Cola and Hp, I got the chance to be part of the torch relay by being on board the coke bus along side with all the other motivators to support the torch bearers!


Photobucket

This was taken at the YOG HQ when the torch bearers from the morning league return and lit that stand. I assure you I was standing quite far but still felt the heat.

The torch bearer who return to the HQ was Loh Wei Jie, the little boy who ran 15 km in flip flops! His schoolmates were there to support him. No photos of him though, din managed to get a clear shot.


Photobucket

Here's the coke bus!


Photobucket

The whole group of motivators. They are all friendly and a very hyper group!


Photobucket

Me! XD


Photobucket

Silver, Clarence and Hp drinking coke! XD
I assure you that the coke supply on the bus is endless. There's at least a hundred cartons of coke at the lower deck.

Silver and Mint.


Photobucket

Hp and I.

The motivators dancing to the coke song while we were parked by the road.


Photobucket

Look at the whole stretch of supporters! XD

Passing by Dhoby Ghaut area, where the huge logo of the YOG is.


Photobucket

One more shot of me with the coke shaped vuvuzela~ XD


Photobucket

The coke bus, as you can see is similar to the hippo bus on the left. 
It's actually a hippo bus converted to the coke bus. LOL.

A group photo in front of the coke bus while waiting at the Merlion Park.

Here's a video that I have taken on the bus! XD



Previously when the torch relay passed by the area near my house, I was just standing by the road looking up at the whole procession. It was a totally different feeling when I was onboard the bus, being part of the whole thing.
My heart warmed up when I saw the public waved back at us and giving us support. It's not an easy thing at all, cheering and waving and all. Most of us were tired halfway through the journey.
I am glad to be able to be on the coke bus on that day. I am proud to have a little part in the very first YOG held in Singapore though it's not really significant.

Thy Pen Log: Test Shots

As some of you would know, I have been wanting to get a new camera which can produce good photos but I dun want to get a DSLR as it is too bulky. And research have let me learn about Micro Four Thirds system. Good quality photos in a compact body. Choice of interchangeable lens like a DSLR.

So I researched more and found out about the Olympus Pen Series and the Panasonic Lumix G series. I was actually stuck between the two as Lumix has came out with the G2 which have quite a lot of features like swivel screen and touch screen focus etc. But Olympus have better Jpeg quality compared to the Panasonic. Also, it has different Art Filters to play with.

In the end, I decided to go with my decision of getting the Olympus Pen EP-2 with the Pancake Lens(17mm) and also the standard 14-42mm Kit Lens. 

Here's some test shots that I got while playing with my new toy for the first time. I need time to get used to the system so that I can get more awesome shots. :P

All are taken with various Art Filters.

Movie Review: The Last Airbender

Thanks to Omy.sg, I got the chance to attend the movie premiere of The Last Airbender before it's out.

 Photobucket


I brought one of my girls with me for the movie.(Her nick is PIG! :P)

Photobucket


Don was there too! XD

Photobucket


Ok, now on to the review. XD

Many of you might not know the fact that this movie is based on an animation series, Avatar: The Last Airbender. In fact, I watched 1 or 2 episodes of the animation on OKTO before.The animation consisted of 3 seasons.


 *Spoilers Ahead*


The Last Airbender is the first of a trilogy. Similar to the animation, the first was Book One: Water.
The Avatar has the ability to bend all four elements, born as an Airbender, he needs to learn the 3 other elements so that he is able to fight against the Fire Nation Lord. Water comes after Air and Earth comes after Water with Fire being the last.



In this first movie, we see how Aang(the Airbender/Avatar) accepts his destiny as the Avatar and along with his friends from the Water Tribe tries to fought against the Fire Nation who had the motive of eliminating all other nations/elements conquer the world while searching for Masters to teach Aang to bend the 3 other elements.
Aang traveled along with Katara and Sokka to the Northern Water Tribe to find a Master Waterbender to teach Aang how to bend water. On their way, they have to avoid Zuko, the exile Prince of the Fire Nation who is only allowed to return if only he caught the Avatar. The Trio also have to avoid Commander Zhao from the Fire Nation who has evil intentions to destroy the Northern Water Tribe while capturing the Avatar.


The Last Airbender is a fantasy movie with not so fantastic effects. However, I felt that it requires no fancy effects as the elements portrayed in the show are the basics of everything. Hence there is no need for fancy effects for the elements. There's also some humor in the movie for us to take a breather from all the actions. Somehow the bending of elements reminds me of Tai-Ji, when research tells me that the bending of elements is based on different Kungfus. With waterbending based on Tai-Ji. I am sure you will get what I meant when you watch the movie yourselves. XD

As for the story, it's like all adventure stories where there will be a main hero who will be there to save the day. And also the evil people trying to destroy everyone else, putting themselves superior to others. You can't expect much out of something that is based on an animation which is targeted at teenagers.

In my opinion, I find that The Last Airbender is quite a good show as there are twists and turns and I felt that there is no boring moments. Just don't expect too much when you watch it and you will definitely enjoy the show.
I felt that the reason why many give it a low rating as they expect too much as the animation the show was based on was very popular and even won awards.

I rate this show a 3.5/5. XD

I will be looking forward to the other 2 parts of the movie. XD

Enjoy the Trailer! XD
