Iron Man 2

The world is aware that billionaire inventor Tony Stark is the armored Super Hero Iron Man. Under pressure from the government, the press and the public to share his technology with the military, Tony is unwilling to divulge the secrets behind the Iron Man armor because he fears the information will slip into the wrong hands. With Pepper Potts, and James "Rhodey" Rhodes at his side, Tony forges new alliances and confronts powerful new forces...

Great movie even though it's only a trailer at this point which I've seen so far. Can't wait to catch it in the cinema!

Reach out and have a great day!

(Who Watches The) Watchmen

An R-rated movie this outing is makes a pretty good watch by my standards. I admit I am a comics buff. The story is set in 1985 in the alternate reality where costumed superheroes exists and Nixon is the President of the United States. The story revolves around a group of superheroes, 6 actually, some whom are retired after an act of law is passed banning costumed vigilantes. The active ones remaining are Dr Manhattan (the only one who has any real superpowers), The Comedian, and Rorshach.

Director Zach Snyder in making the movie saved around $40million dollars by casting actors who were not typical A-list stars. He however has been pressured to make the film shorter and more audience friendly, something that he reluctantly agreed to.

The film stars Jeffery Dean Morgan, Billy Crudup, Patrick Wilson, Matthew Goode, Jackie Earle Haley, Stephen McHattie, Carla Gugino, and Malin Akerman. It will be released in 5 month's time (around March 2009).

Paris Hilton is looking for love (and in all the wrong places)


Save Paris! Paris Hilton is looking for (platonic) love in all the wrong places: reality TV shows. In her latest endeavor, "Paris Hilton's My New BFF," which premiered on MTV Sept. 30, a group of hopeful sidekicks compete for the position of Paris' new "best friend." Oh, Paris! You need... more someone who can trip Dina Lohan on her way to the ladies room; someone who dutifully holds your hair out of your face while you hurl Rich Pressco into the bushes outside Chateau Marmont. Is some regular, nonfamous person trained and able to do all that and gaze with tasteful adoration as you shove the bartender aside to dance on the bar? Of course not! Here are top 10 suggestions for a friend who can place that extra "F" in BFF ...

High School Musical 3 (aka HSM)

What will become of Troy and Gabriella? Will Sharpay finally get over herself? And, more importantly, what will they be wearing?

Its worth the wait and a watch.

`Porno' a five-letter word

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Kevin Smith made a movie with such a bothersome title he cannot even place ads for it in some places.

Some newspaper, TV and outdoor ads for Smith's comedy "Zack and Miri Make a Porno" have been rejected because of their content or the five-letter word that ends the title, said Gary Faber, head of marketing for the Weinstein Co., which is releasing the film.

Among those refusing to carry ads are about 15 newspapers and several TV stations and cable channels, Faber said. Commercials for the film during Los Angeles Dodgers games on Fox Sports were dropped at the team's request after some viewers complained, said Dodgers spokesman Josh Rawitch.

Some playfully risque ads with images of "Zack and Miri" stars Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks were forbidden by the Motion Picture Association of America, which called the ads "highly sexually suggestive and not suitable for general audiences."

The company developed a version of the stick-figure poster without the film's name, bearing the slogan, "Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks made a movie so outrageous that we can't even tell you the title."

The House Bunny (2008)

Anna Faris rocks and not just with a widening of the eyes and a shimmy of the ta-tas. I last saw her in Scary Movie, back then she sucked. But what would you expect from a movie of such genre. Now she stars in the gaily laughable, formula comedy The House Bunny — and she gives an A+ performance in the kind of farce from which she's more than ready to graduate. Faris plays Shelley Darlington, a Playboy Bunny banished from Hef's mansion on the grounds she's way old: 27, which is, she's told, 59 in Bunny years. Homeless, the cheerful waif stumbles her high-heeled way onto a college Greek row. And before you can say Zeta Alpha Zeta, she becomes house mother to a sorority of losers in danger of having its charter revoked because they can't recruit any new losers to join them.Wisdom from Shelley to her Zeta girls: ''The eyes are the nipples of the face.''

Cartoon Network and Naruto

As a responsible and mature Malaysian, I am not shy to admit that I do still like to watch the Kids Channel and look forward eagerly each time for my favorite cartoons.

Cartoon Network is home to my favorite cartoons and I'm also into Naruto.
