You Will See A Lot Of This, Everywhere.

What?
New Moon.

Yeah, now that the movie is out yesterday, you will hear/see/read more about this thing, everywhere.
In the papers, in blogs, reviews, TV and what not.
Just wait and see.

Everywhere

And i have watched this movie at the cinema, yesterday.
muahahaha

It's not easy to get tickets for hot movies like this huh?
The girlfy did all the work by buying the tickets a few days in advance.
I didn't have to lift a finger.
But i still haven't watched 2012 though.

The cinema was packed like hell of course.
I wonder how people watched the movie at the front row seating.

Then there were a lot of groupies, stupid teenage or tween girls and a whole lotta gayboys
who seem to gasp and ooh and ahh everytime Edward or Jacob takes off their shirt.
Yeah, to that extent.

Oh my god oh my god OH MY GOD!

And at the last scene, these girls/boys got so excited that they screamed, and clapped their hands.
Seriously man? Get a life please.

While the Twilight hardcores would argue between team Edward or team Jacob, the Twilight haters say that this movie is for teenage girls who have too much imagination about having a very cool boyfriend.
Whatever, i'm on neither side.
I'm neutral. But i have to say that the movie is not bad, and it is rather enjoyable.
hohoho

So, why do these people love Twilight and got so sucked up into this world?
A British psychotherapist Derek Draper said,

"The vampire is a metaphor for the predatory yet alluring boy. The young girl wants to be chased and she wants to be caught. Coarsely put, the bite stands in for penetration."

Well, i could agree on the part where the girl wants to be chased and all.
But penetration?
Seriously?

Looks like Edward Cullen has made the fangs the new penis.
hahaha

You want me to penetrate you?

I have my own fangs too.
Who wants to get bitten?
hahaha

Oh, Selamat Hari Raya Aidiladha everybody!

Sentul Curry House

I woke up earlier this morning, feeling so hungry.
Sleepy-faced and all, i asked my mum, what's for lunch.
She said, oh, let's go out, fetch dad and eat outside.

What a great way to start your day huh?
Discuss about food. Where to eat. Splendid.
So, we went to Sentul Curry House.

Bright sunny day huh?

It's located in.. yes, you guessed it right genius, Sentul.
My parents have been raving about this place, and so it's time for me to check it out.

Decisions, decisions..

The name of the restaurant says it all.
It's basically and Indian restaurant, selling curry and stuffs. Duh.

I'm a vegetarian. NOT

There's a variety of mamak food here. Even more than the usual nasi kandar joints like Pelita.
There are also ulams and what not.

Taking the mutton is a must. Damn it tastes good.
Then there's also some crabs(ketam), and chicken.

It's so fresh that you can still hear the mbeeekkkk sounds occasionally

However, the price is quite steep though.
A pergedel (i don't know its English name, if there is one) costs 3 fucking bucks!
But it's huge and very meaty and very potato-ish.
Justified? I don't know.

I had 'makanan' for lunch. You?

The receipt says only 'makanan' there. So i'm not really sure which one is which.
But heck, who cares when you're not paying, right?
X)

I did not manage to snap a photo of all the things that i eat.
When you're that hungry, you just don't care. haha
The only picture that i took at the table was the aftermath.

You know what is kebuntat?

What i like about eating mamak curry during the afternoon is that it makes you sleepier than eating a normal Malay food.
Blame the kas-kas.

Oh, time for an evening nap before going to the Yahoo! Youreka! party!

Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 (PES 2010) Review + Story

It's almost the end of the year.

So, let us welcome the rainy season here in Malaysia.

Almost every evening, it will rain.

This means, no futsal, and a whole lot of zzz's.

No healthy activities.

So, what to do?

Well, the Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 (PES 2010) or also known as Winning Eleven for some is out!

If you can't play real life football or futsal, then this game is the next best thing!

Hell yeah!

The game was supposed to come out around 22 October, but somehow, a friend of mine downloaded got it a few days earlier.

Ain't that cool?

Nobody buys the original

So, this post is dedicated to the game that every single male that watches football knows!

Well, not really if you're a faggot or sees 'football' as another type of sport.

The latest series of the Pro Evolution Soccer (Winning Eleven in Japan) is the best so far. I have always preferred PES over FIFA football games. Hands down.

It's just more realistic, and more fun to play.

Sendayu Tinggi : Before and After

The graphics of this game is superb.

The details are top-notch, especially if your PC comes with an awesome graphics card.

You can even see the mole on Fernando Torres!

The in-match details are also great. The players expression can be seen clearly, and the way they celebrate a goal, or react to a red card is just superb.

The commentators are also good, albeit with some stupidity.

Got graphic card, will do!

In almost all editions of this year's Pro Evolution Soccer, the cover will show two of the most deadly strikers in the business right now, Fernando Torres and Lionel Messi. There are also some covers with Ronaldo and Kaka.

Now, usually, the player that gets on the cover is usually one of the best players in the game.

El Nino in action

And true enough, they are just unstoppable. It's a bit imbalanced or IMBA, as gamer geeks call it.

In this game, Cristiano Ronaldo is the MOST IMBA player!

Just pass the ball to him and he'll be gone like a lipas kudung.

He's just so freaking fast that no defender can catch him.

Add in a few tricks, boom, goal.

That simple.

Booooo

Messi, Kaka and Torres are also up there in the IMBA list, but none can beat Mr. Winker.

So basically, if you want to win, and you want to win with style, just pick Real Madrid or Liverpool and behold the one-man show.

Another thing that i don't quite like is that this game still does not have the proper license for some clubs. Arsenal and Chelsea are some of the most famous victims. Which means, Arsenal will still be called North London and Chelsea is London FC.

And their jersey is also a rubbish jersey, since they don't have the license.

Spot the mole! The mole!

Come on lah, this game has been in business since the 90's. Since the Playstation days. But each and every time i play, there will always be North London instead of Arsenal.

Damn.

And North London players suck big time in this game too.

Double Damn.

All in all, the game is much much better than the previous editions, and are more realistic to play. It is slightly more challenging but it gives more satisfaction.

Enough of the reviews already.

So, since there's nothing much to do, and the game is out, what did we do?

Play the game of course!

Group Discussion Session 6 - Java Data Structures

There were 6 of us, and there were 2 PCs.

So, we created a league using a league generator from the internet and started playing.

This means,

6 players

6 teams

10 matches per team (home and away)

60 matches total

Over 6 hours of non-stop gaming

1 winner?

Each player takes control of 1 team. One round of fixture is equal to 3 games/matchdays.

Since there are 2 PCs, two matches can be played at one time. The other two players will have to watch/support/rest.

As the league goes on, it becomes more tiring.

Some have already fallen asleep, while some have sore fingers.

Group Discussion 27 - Past Year Questions

The final league positions, including the goals scored, goals against and the points are supposed to be published here, but since the league ended prematurely (fatigue), we will have to wait for another round of league to finish so that it can be published. heheheh

Well, i'm just giving a second chance to those who did not perform that day.

X)

Championship Manager 2010 - CM2010

I got a new game!

The Championship Manager 2010, or better known as CM 2010.

I'm not really excited about this game, because i am actually anticipating the Football Manager 2010 to come out in the next few weeks.

But hey, since this game is out, why not give it a try?

If you haven't already know, CM is a football game, where you become the manager of any team that you like, and well, manage it.

You won't be playing the match, instead you'll be the manager.

You'll be in charge of the players formation, tactics, transfers, training and basically everything.

So far, i've only played a few matches, and it is by far the most detailed CM yet.

I've never really played CM (i prefer FM), but it's kinda good.

The game is about 3GBs in size and the graphics are great.

Even the matches look great in 3D, just like playing Pro Evolution Soccer.

Everything is detailed

Since this game is just out recently, there are still a lot of things to learn, and there aren't that many tips and tricks available in the internet.

However, if you've been playing a manager game for some time, you should know the gist by now. All the wonderkids and stuff. Yeah.

Wonderkid alert

But there's one thing that i just can't tolerate.

I don't know why, the matches are too slow.

Not slow as in performance or lagging or whatever.

Maybe the word long is more appropriate.

The matches take too long to complete.

At least the graphics are good

A football match lasts 90 minutes right?

But in a game, of course you have to scale it down or something.

However in this game, 1 minute in the real world equals to maybe around 20 or 30 seconds of the game.

Which means, one full match, it might take around 40 minutes for 1 match to complete.

What the fuck?

I'm not gonna sit there for 40 minutes and watch stupid animated 3D shit running all over the pitch.

And that's after setting the speed and timer at "very fast".

Imagine "normal".

Sigh. It's hard to be a football manager.

Just ask Rafa Benitez. LOL

Sakit kepala woo

PJ19 Planet Football - Food Planet Forum 19

Got nowhere to watch live football with great atmosphere but without all the hassle?

Not anymore!

On one fine night, me and my friend Jon went out to watch football.

However, the mamak that we used to go is full, and all the nearby mamaks were full too.

It's Chelsea vs. Liverpool.

We had nowhere to go.

Suddenly, a conversation came up between us.

Weh, camne ni weh, semua tempat dah penuh. Ko taw mane-mane tempat lain tak?

Owh, aku rase aku taw ade satu tempat ni. Best gak ar.

Kat mane? Jom jom.

Tapi tempat tu macam tempat Cina sikit. Takde Melayu. Pastu serve beer ngan babi kot.

Ko kesah tak?

Tak. Ko?

Tak jugak. Kesah pulak.

Ok jom.

Ok aku tunjuk jalan.

So, off we go to PJ19 Planet Football - Food Planet Forum 19 (yeah the name is long, i just don't know what to call it).

It is somewhere in PJ Section 19, just beside PJ Section 14.

View from 50 metres..?

What i can say about the place was that it's huge. Fucking huge.

The whole place is huge, and the screen is even bigger.

And there are around 3 or 4 screens! Big big screens!

The 'other' match - nobody's watching however

There's even another screen showing the 'other' match of the night, so that you won't get dissappointed if your team is playing and no other mamak is screening it.

Makan Sutra Thai with a posing waiter

There are a variety of food over there. Just name it, they got it. From satay to nasi goreng and from Bak Kut Teh to otak-otak!

And there's also steamboat (RM10)!

But whether it's Halal or not, that's another question.

The drinks menu

We did not eat anything that night. We came to watch football, so we just ordered some drinks.

And it's not THAT expensive at all. A can of Coke costs just RM2.

Here's a receipt so that you can claim

And what's more interesting, the waiters take their orders using a goddamn PDA!

Yeah. A hawker center taking orders using touchscreen devices.

Just touch-touch a bit, and there. Done.

The service was good too. Not even 5 minutes after that, our drinks came.

The menu is small and compact. Very nice idea. Nothing to do with the beer LOL

The whole place was sprawling i tell you. And what's great about it, it's not even near full when we came there. Come on, it's Chelsea vs Liverpool! Any bloody cheap mamak would be full to the brim.

It's loooooong

There are 2 parts in the building.

One is the outdoor/open-air part, and the other is the indoor part.

Don't worry about the seats, there are plenty! Too many in fact.

We went 20 minutes into the game and we still managed to grab a good seat.

The fan was annoying!

To make the whole watching experience more interesting, the owners of the restaurant(i'm not sure if restaurant is the proper term) held a lucky draw contest!

The contest was simple.

Just spend RM10 and above, go to counter to get a scorecard, and predict the scoreline.

Simple, innit?

The jerseys are not just decos

The prize?

An Original Home Jersey of the winning team!

Damn!!

Only during the day - who cares?

Parking is not a problem too. There are plenty inside the building itself. You can also park outside. There's plenty of space.

And most importantly, the parking is FREE when it matters the most!

THIS is what people want.

If you're cash-strapped or you don't feel like using your precious money, you could stay in the car and watch from there too!

The screen is huge!

You can watch it from just about anywhere.

Watch from the car

And then there are other stalls too that complete the building/restaurant.

There's a snooker centre.

Snooker near the toilet

There's a kedai runcit for you to buy your chewing gums or ciggies.

Kedai Runcit

And there's even a cyber cafe for all the DoTA hardcores.

And not forgetting a car wash, while you eat.

I'm not really sure about the spelling

How cool is THAT?

They got everything under one roof!

Even got a disco ball weh!

All in all, the place was just great to watch football matches.

It doesn't matter what match that you're going to watch, as long as it is on TV, it will be shown here. No worries.

Chelsea 2 - 0 Liverpool

The only thing is that there's not many Malays here. Maybe the setting is a bit too Chinese (i'm not being racist or anything here).

If only they could make it more appealing to the Malay customers, i'm sure that Hartamas Square will bungkus!

And yeah, we were the only Malays there.

Meriah-meriah

So, we went back home happy that night.

No need to watch at the lousy mamak with a not-so-big screen, too many people, unserved customers and what not.

Lepas ni tak main lah tengok kat Jamal dah!

Raya Movies and Reviews

During the Raya week, the first week that is, i watched 3 movies at the cinema.

Not so in the spirit of Raya eh? Whatever lah.

Maybe it's because there's not much to do i think.

So, here are the reviews for the movies that i watched.

Jin Notti

Wait, what the fuck? I watched Jin Notti? At the cinema???

Holy shit. You gotta be kidding me.

I can't believe it either.

Rubbish, unsurprisingly

But yes. I did watch the bloody movie, and at the cinema.

Well, i certainly won't watch this kind of movie, let alone at the cinema. But hey, since me and the girlfy is being treated to the movie, so, what the heck. At least it's free.

So, basically, the story is rubbish. Utter bollocks. Period.

Storyline-wise, it's kinda okay. The idea is there.

But the acting is horrendous. Come on, Mawi as the lead actor? With Farah Fauzana pulak tu!

And with Cat Farish some more!

Argh, what a torture.

What a waste of time. Shitty acting. Stupid jokes. But i wonder why the whole cinema laughed at the stupid jokes. Sigh.

And what makes it more surprising is that the movie has grossed around RM1 million in its first week of showing. What the fuck?

Well, i don't want to comment more on this stupid movie.

Hey, at least i support the local movie industry. Heh.

Verdict is, don't watch this movie unless you're into Mawi/Farah Fauzana/Cat Farish or lame slapstick shit or somebody else is paying.

The Ugly Truth

The Ugly Truth is a good romantic comedy starring the talented Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler. Now, you might see Butler in action in the movie Gamer, but in this movie, he plays as this some sort of jackass Doktor Cinta and appears on television shows while Heigl is the producer of the show. Nice eh?

It is ugly, and it hurts, the truth

Couples should watch this movie, and there's a lot of things to fight about when watching this movie. It's all about he says she says. But what i like about this movie is that Gerard Butler really dishes out the ugly truth that women can't accept. Hell yeah. And what he says are real.

I'm sure that almost all of you can relate to it.

It is, in fact, the ugly truth.

Great match

The storyline is normal, rather predictable. But hey, it's kinda fresh though. The acting was great and comedy was good.

So, the verdict is, watch this movie for a fun, relaxing time. And also recommended for couples, lovebirds, whatever.

Tsunami at Haeundae

This is a Korean movie. It claims to be the number one blockbuster in Korea, and it is from co-team that made Star Wars and The Day After Tomorrow. I'm not really sure of the term co-team here though. Co-team of what? It could be co-team of anything. Team of producers, or maybe team of extras, or perhaps team of waterboys? And don't forget the co before the team.

Not about the car Hyundai

But whatever the hell that is, this movie is good. Really good.

Disaster movies are always good to watch eh?

The story is about er.. well, Tsunami of course. The tsunami strikes the beach of Haeundae, where all of the characters seems to be staying, working, or at least on a holiday.

The story is a mixture of romance, comedy and action. All of it are nicely blended into the movie.

There are many characters in this movie, usual for a disaster/catastrophe film. And somehow the characters are related and intertwine with each other, unsurprisingly. The storyline was quite predictable for a disaster movie, but hey, this is done Korean style.

The actors and actresses are okay. The funny moments also hit the spot. The animation's not bad.

There's also some sad parts, which left the girlfy almost crying.

Me? Well, no way. It was sad, and i was moved, a lot, but that's that. I don't really cry. (control macho beb!)

hahaha

Tsunami at Indonesia = 10 meters. Tsunami at Haeundae = 50 meters

The verdict is, this movie is a must-watch. Even if you don't dig Korean stuffs, you should give it a try. Tsunami at Haeundae is certainly the best movie among the 3 that i watched with the girlfy during the Raya period.

That's it for my movie reviews, Raya Edition.

So, have you watched any of these?

If not, will you watch any of these?

What do you think?

Oh, and by the way, the tagline for the movie Jin Notti is..

Jangan naughty-naughty.

Sumpah geli dohh! Arghhhh
