On Tuesday, my Birthday~! =P I didn’t have any activities that night actually, but under the persuasion of Uncle Josh, I finally wrote the Zohan post and I go the tickets! and I went to watch Zohan with a bunch of bloggers. =P
I’ve met Karena, Joseph, Joshua, Uncle Josh, Simon, Rames, Hitomi, Pei Man (Uncle Josh’s gf) and many many many many more. Really I can’t remember everyone (sorry! ^.-) and if I didn’t name you, sorry as well! *bow*
Important Facts:
1) Pei Man is from the same university as me! =P How small is the world? =P
2) Karena is another camwhore! (no aspect or element of insult ok? =P) She’s the same as me! XP
3) Joshua is tall! Like superb! And Karena says she FEEL that me and him are like Brothers~ XD
4) Uncle Josh has a super wide spiderweb friend network. o.O
5) Rames remembered me! =P
I’ve met a couple of them at the Bubba Gump, and I was shocked at the price of the menu! But luckily, I don’t consume seafood and the chicken dishes are really not my cup of tea XD I don’t have to order! (Those who know me well will know how BAD my pickiness in FOOD is =P) I only ordered a Mango Sparkler which is REALLY sweet, but hey! I love sweet things =)

Taken from Uncle Josh~ Can you see me?
And on my right is my “dai kor” Joshua, my left is Joseph~ XD
Alright! That’s done! Let’s get down to Zohan! Get to watch the special screening thanks to Advertlets! ^^

Since I dun wanna have a BIG poster again, I use this small one =P
Zohan is incredible. Some jokes are lame and old, but you really can’t help but laugh at em! Especially the way the actors act and say and the words they say, omg. Really, The whole cinema was laughing like nobody’s business from the beginning of the movie. The more the movie progresses, the more/louder the laughter gets. Adam Sandler is the King. Or at least I think so. I probably wouldn’t mind watching it again, cuz really, the laugh is just too good to be neglected. XD
I rate: 9/10 - Even though some jokes are really not so new/original, they are really laughter-provoking. I salute them. The reason they got a minus 1 is because too many jokes are related to sexual stuffs =P hahaha =) It is still, a good movie though =P
That’s all ^^ =D
P/S: I actually took all the effort to link each and every name on this post ohkay? (except Josh Lim XD sorry =P) hahah ^^

Hora! Time to update my blog! So as some of you may have known~ I went to watch Wall-E (for free! Thanks to Advertlets) on Monday night! I brought Huixin along since I got 2 free tickets. Surprisingly, I met a lot of people there! Leonard, Helena, Christine, Lindy, EuVeng & His gf, and also met a few new friends, Isaac, Pearly, Dianne and Michael. I even met Uncle Josh, and saw many other bloggers! Wow! Anyway~ Let me review a bit of Wall-E.

One Word:
SUPERCUTE!!
Wall-E is a very powerful movie. Cute and meaningful, in a way. I really like the way they made Wall-E and Eve cuz they are REALLY cute. The plot is pretty cool, not very realistic (though possible) and its just too cute!! Wall-E’s talking and Eve’s response, and the whole much of many scenes! I agree, agree and bloody agree it is the most adorable robot! Did i mention that it is cute?
I rate: 9/10 - the 1 point that is not there is because nothing is perfect. =P There must be some flaws I din bother looking out for XD

A picture of me and Euveng! I look bloody fat (at my chin area)…
I gotta slim down-lah~
That’s all for today!! ^^ buhbwaiz~ =P

I went to watch Mummy 3: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor today! I actually went to One Utama with Amal today to celebrate my birthday, but that story will be saved for another post. =) Anyway! I’ve visited a couple of blog, especially Jason Smashpop’s. He rated it 0. And like totally… erm. Dislike it. hahah =P
But I beg to differ. Fine, I do agree that, compared to the last two series, this one’s plot is really *ahem* despicable not-so-up-to-standard. But I still find the scenes cute! Especially those cute ferocious Yeti-Yeti and the quite wonderful CG effects.

The Mummy

Jet Li as The Dragon Emperor, and his five elements,
supposedly Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth

and the Dragon itself. Hideous looking.
You know what is the funniest scene? When Jet Li was transforming into the dragon the first time in the fountain. SO FUNNY. It was super cartoonish. I was so speechless. One more opinion, he should have just transformed into the dragon to fight Rick and Alex instead of that stupid weird looking beast.
Overall, rated: 5/10 - 2 for the CG effect, 1 for Michelle Yeoh speaking mandarin, 1 for the terracota vs skeletons scene, and 1 for Ling/Lin cuz she’s pretty.
That’s all! =P

Moyu Online is a chinese MMORPG which is Free-2-Play for life. I visited the main website and actually seen the game being played before. It is pretty cool. There are a couple of cool stuff that I want to point out after analyzing the game and the site for abit! =P The game is pretty different in a few extra-cool features from other games. The most significant one is the Pet System. But I’ll go into that later in the post. Remember, you can click to enlarge those screenshots that I took while I’m playing the game! =)
Firstly, I find the Trap System very cute and interesting at the same time. By direct translating, the system is called Lucky “Trap”. It not like its BAD you know. This trap occasionally appears at random location by chance, and probable after defeating some minor enemies. These traps grant you certain buffs of sorts. These buffs may be extra experience points, extra attack power, extra speed, extra money loot and many more. Below is a picture depicting the “trap”. The green circle, if you step on it before it disappears, then you will be granted one of those buffs mentioned above. The site advises you to kill off minor enemies, allowing more lucky “traps” to spawn and grant you some buffs before confronting big bosses. It does turn the tide around I believe! =)


The lucky “trap” I found when I was playing my character, Valvaris
Alright, so I mentioned the pet system before, didn’t I? The pet system is pretty different to the games I had played before. The pets in Moyu are sort of like your party member. They can fight as well as you can! Unlike in other games, where the pets are optional and probably can only do small amount of damage, the pets in Moyu are pretty much your companion. It is made in this way that these Mystical Pets will be with you through the game so that you don’t have to venture alone! You even get to hatch these pets on your own, by “manually” hatching the eggs! =P You need to spend an hour to hatch it, and you cannot go offline during this hour. Well, I doubt that you will anyway, since normally we’ll spend at least 2 hours on-game. Aside that, it has over 40 types of pets to choose from! There are fairies, cute looking animals, pets as mounts/transportations and so many more! Your pets can even level up with you and evolve! Their looks even change into cooler looking ones when they evolve! =P Look at the pets in the two pictures below.

The pet is a winged-fairy look-a-like. So cute and cool at the same time right?
And that is the Pet’s skill list.
PETS WITH SKILLS! Totally AWESOME!

Now look at that two flying pets. One with angel wings, one looks like a dragon.
They are both pets, and yes, you can actually have two pets at the same time.
And look at that graphics, totally cool!

My two Fairy pets, Phobos and Deimos

My pets Casting a fireball/meteor Spell~
That’s not all. Lucky “Traps” and Pet Systems aside, I am quite fascinated with the game’s graphics. The skills animations are pretty large scaled, as shown in the picture below. It is really very impacting. Look at those fiery animations. It does not lose when compared to other online games. Moyu is a pretty interesting game with a whole new look to it. Special is something which attracts. =)

A cool graphic picture I found on the net…

Look at the Flaming Bar at the bottom~

When I Level UP! Look at me Shine! =D

One of my Special Skills~ Look at the bombastic Graphics~ =P
Yeap, so those are some clear pictures I found on the net and some of the screen shots I took while playing the game! =) It is really awesome! =D
Moyu online’s official website is MOYU. Click the word MOYU to enter the site. It is pretty comprehensive! They list out their features and also many one by one step on how to do certain things, such as hatching eggs and some other guides to the game. It is in chinese, though. Do enjoy! =)

Yeahhhhh, the new fan sign. ACTUALLY, i’m still waiting for some friends to send me theirs.
But anyway, I really feel kinda whatever now… XD
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And so the story was that I went to watch both HELLBOY 2: THE GOLDEN ARMY and DARK KNIGHT on the same day… Cool eh? So lets get to the review. =)

The postah~~~

The main character…. DUH~

A pyrokinetic girlfriend~~~ flaming hot! =P

A psychic Merman! My fav character! =P
Alright, on to the review. Hellboy 2 is, really, not as good as its first. I actually think that I like the first better than the second. However, I still enjoyed the second one. Just that it is like abit more… extra and non-related. I mean, elves? XD Hmm, maybe its just me. Oh and. Elves don’t look like THAT… really >_<
I rate HELLBOY2: The Golden Army - 6/10
3 because I actually did enjoy the show’s effects and all, and another 1 for each of the three characters above, cuz I like em!
______________________________________________

Batman logo! Sort of…

The Joker from Dark Knight~
Urgh.. the show was kinda gory… I actually covered my eyes at the scene where he slit that guy’s mouth open. XD and Heath Ledger, tribute man. The show, he nailed it. He freaked me out. Totally. I mean, really! who wasn’t…. and then again, maybe i’m the only one. But really, the show IS scary… I’ve read many reviews and they complained about the girl being ugly. All I have to say is…. I couldn’t agree more.
I rate Dark Knight: 9/10
The 1 mark part where I deducted, was because it was a wee bit gory of the show. I hate gory. XD All in all, its good! =)
That’s all for now! Adios! ^^
