KITBASH-ed.

the END.

...so have you guys seen the big finale? if you have then your either disappointed..or you thought it.was.the.bomb. or your like me who felt a bit of both,as one friend said it "I've had a relationship with this show for the last six years-how can it end like that???"

anyways I'm having a hard time getting back to posting things cos the net speed is terrible at my workplace lately...hell it took me almost an hour just to load this one single damned image,yup no joke.

rest assured I'll get back to it soon OK my dear friends? oh another thing...they didn't bring back Mr. Eko for the finale which disappointed me and if you haven't seen the finale come on have you been living in a cave or what? Oh if you haven't watched it-JACK DIES AT THE END. So what's next?

Back...

Munich was COLD,clean but quietly charming...

Bangkok was HOT,noisy but eerie quiet during the govt imposed curfew between 9pm-5am...

I am jet-lagged,sore and exhausted and i have almost 2 weeks' worth of laundry to do and just the weekend to recover and go back to work next Monday :( so I'll be back soon enough for my regular postings...so guten abend and sa-wat dee.

SORRY...

i know its been a while since my last posting and i do apologies for that...work overload and life itself has sidetracked me from here and i don't yet have the time and energy to give my most recent two projects fair justice of a proper posting so instead here are two teasers for now.

its ironic as these two projects are related to Germany as I may be headed to Munich next weekend for yet another work trip...and it'll be the furthest I've ever flown to anywhere...and i REALLY don't look forward to the more then 15 hours flight but I'll make the best of it so I'll pop in perhaps before i go off.

Tataa for now.

Weekend project...

just spotted this earlier..a full 2-minute clip below from the party scene we've all seen in the trailers..nothing special but just to share as IM2 premier sneaks closer & closer...and according to one of you we'll have Brunei premier ONE WEEK EARLIER then the U.S.

original posting here.

...there's that damned portable IronMan suit-in-a-case again with director Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan.

...oh here's another behind the scenes look...there's so much stuff on IM2 nowadays...

...urgh...

...???

found this just now on onesixthwarriors.com

i dunno what to say...i leave it to you guys...here's the original post.

FIERCE.

Salt is an upcoming American action thriller film directed by Phillip Noyce, written by Kurt Wimmer and Brian Helgeland, and starring Angelina Jolie, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Liev Schreiber.

While Tom Cruise was initially secured for the lead, he was unable to commit to the role because of commitments to other projects, the script was ultimately rewritten for Jolie. Jolie plays Evelyn Salt, accused of being a KGB sleeper agent, on the run to try and clear her name.

It is scheduled to be released in North America on July 23, 2010 and August 20, 2010 in the United Kingdom.

OK lets face it...this will probably be a flop but i like the poster and this woman is still a hot fierce looking M.I.L.F

WHO is FRIEND?!!!

-FRIEND-

so...I've been following this Japanese sci-fi thriller trilogy for a while now and I've only recently finished watching all 3 films,gotta say GREAT trilogy in the style of the original Star Wars and LOTR...very clever how the story was spread into 3 acts and best of all the 3 movies taps into every notable pop culture from the trilogies title to tonnes of Ultraman references i.e. one of the characters name is Dan Moroboshi (the human host of Ultra Seven).

if YOUR a true OTAKU then you know about this movie trilogy and you'll certainly know why I'm not even going to attempt to explain the films main plots & storyline-basically ITS DAMN GOOD.

...one of the urging questions the first 2 films left anyone was...WHO IS FRIEND??? well i gotta tell you it was a movie moment similar to when Vader told Luke he was his father or when we finally saw the lizard faces of the visitors in the 80's TV series V,so here it is below...if you haven't seen the final movie turn away now...yeah right as if that's gonna work.

chapter1 released on 30 August 2008

Chapter2 titled 'A New Hope' released on 31 January 2009,see what i mean about the sci-fi pop culture referencing?

...and finally the final chapter titled 'Lets take back our flag' in some international releases on 29 August 2009.

of course 20th Century Boys is based on the science fiction mystery manga created by Naoki Urasawa which won the 2001 Kodansha Manga Award. Here are the film's actors compared to the manga characters,most of the casting was spot on and my favorite main characters are of course Kenji,his totally hot niece Kanna and Otcho.

so are you ready to see WHO FRIEND REALLY IS?

...its FUKUBEI!!! one of the childhood friends also of the group!!!

Fukubei after finally taking off the one eyed mask...

Fukubei as a teen in school just prior to meeting a teenage kenji...

...and Fukubei as a bullied child...

i guess the moral of the movie is basically...don't bully & mess up some kids life,you may think its no big deal BUT that snot nosed girly kid COULD one day end up as a world dominating messiah with the power to end it all.

ODA review-the finale

ok here it is the final review/report on Soldier Story's ODA ASSault Team Leader figure.

oh HELL no...

IronMan suit portable in a suitcase???
Tony needs a new suit...

this below is apparently from the Monaco racing scene...who would have thought...a portable IronMan suit in a neat little case...Transformers is nothing...

i think a lot of us will need to change our pants after this Monaco sequence...oh well only less then 2 months to go till the world premiere...I'm hoping Brunei has it a day earlier then the rest of the world like the first movie...HELL yeah.

ok so whats next?...oh shit..your one UGLY MOTHERF@#KER...

Laurence Fishburne as Noland, a stranded U.S. soldier,most of us remember him best as Morpheus from the Matrix and is now the lead in CSI Vegas.
Adrien Brody as Royce, an American mercenary soldier. Oscar winner for his lead in the Piano,this guy really buffed up for this role.
Alice Braga as Isabelle, a South American special forces black ops sniper,she was the chick from Will Smith's Legend.
predator dog?
Adrian- "errr...ok guys it WAS me who took the last MarsBars..."

images below taken off this posting off onesixthwarriors.com

Robert Rodriguez posing with 3 of the Predators in the movie. Ironically he was in charge of a script for the original Predator movie sequel in the style of Aliens...well now we'll see how his story unfolds.

so yeah these will definitely be the 2 major movies I'm looking forward to in the coming months...and the irony is..HotToys has license to produce merchandise off both movies...DAMN...
