Of CGIs and Animes

Alright, this is a review post.

First up is Transformers!

The movie was awesome, with excellent stunts and special effects. I'll cut things short, definitely a must watch. Especially loved the part where they tried to humour the audience with giant robots trying to look small. Heh..

Just a small question for you to ponder on :

When the Allspark sends radiation to any mechanical object, it becomes a transformer. That's what is told in the story. So people, beware of your Nokia phones. They have a gun inside.

And oh yeah, beware of vending machines. They might suddenly transform into a Transformer that shoots coke cans as projectiles from their cannon.

( Ever wondered where the weapons from these Earth-made transformers came from? )

Score : 4.3

Animayshiun! Animayshiun!!!!!!

Been watching two animes lately, namely 'Love Hina' and 'Elfen Lied'.

Love Hina

Love Hina is a kind of romance story with loads of slapstick humour. It is also a rather weird and totally random anime where everything unimaginable becomes imaginable. Such as.. flying turtles that go 'meow'.

Overall, its also a 'should watch' as its really an eye candy to the audience. But beware though, thought the actual anime does offer some mild soft hentai ( anime pornography ), its not exactly really explicit and meant more towards humour ( such as the guy often accidentally stumbles into the girls bathroom without realizing it, and get the crap beaten out of him. ) Not for extra conservative people ;)

From what I know, the manga is extremely explicit. So I would avoid it. And it costs RM32 per book for English edition. Even the price is explicit. -_-

Genre : Harem comedy ( one guy, lots of girls, one house, lots of romance. You get it )

Total Episodes : 24 + 1 episodes, 1 Christmas special, 1 Spring special and 3 Love Hina Again! episodes.

Score : 4.1
__________________________________________________________________

Elfen Lied

In German it literally translates into 'Elf Song', this is a really really MUST MUST WATCH!!

Wait wait...

Haha, this is a dark themed anime. There's extremely lots of blood and gore, and nudity that is not explicit. More towards like.. a scientific experiment with human, and they're usually girls. So you understand um.. the speciment is tied up naked and sort of stuff like that. Not explicit to me anyway, but if you really get turned on by those, you should see a psychiatrist for extreme obscene sexual thoughts.

Warning again : Lots of blood and gore.

The opening theme is very nice. Based on German Church and sort of prayer like, the singer sounds almost ethereal and, well, I like the music box of 'Lilium' very very much. If you want to listen to it, check up on Youtube, type it under 'Lilium' and listen to the 'Saint version'. The 'Saint Version' is the full version of about 3 minutes long, and the normal 'Lilium' is only 1 and a half minutes.

The music box version of 'Lilium' is nice though! Its so... calming and beautiful.

I would say this is a thought provoking anime, one that really makes you wonder about cruelty in conducting experiments on lifeforms. Watch it if you want, but you have been warned. I couldn't get enough of it, kind of short at 13+1 episodes for an anime.

Too bad they are not published in English manga. I would buy if even if its RM32 -_-"

Though I did hear the manga was seriously lacking compared to the anime.

Genre : Dark, psychological, blood and gore, with a tinge of romance. Overall, I would say a BEAUTIFUL story!

Total episodes : 13+1

Score : 4.7

For both animes, the stories in the manga and the anime actually differed slightly. The plot's been changed, but the animes are good. As for mangas, I have checked around the net, everyone says that for Love Hina the climax is much more satisfactory, but for Elfen Lied it does offer much explanation though is slightly anticlimatic.

I am avoiding the Love Hina manga lest I get mistaken for a sex maniac :P ( its THAT explicit )

On another note, I will be going to KL later this morning. Registration for INTEC is going to be on Sunday. Then I will start my AUSMAT course.

*SIGH* Well, hope I do well to get into New Zealand!

'At least when I am pointed up, the hand sign means Good! And when you're pointed up, it means 'DICK!'" - Professor Leslie, addressing the issue of inequalities in the world to Aimee. Similiarly it can be used to comfort (wo)men who are depressed about their weight and are jealous of those tall, slim and slender models.

5)"All it takes is one prod for your entire grand project to collapse.." - Professor Leslie acting sadistic against himself when he was building a tall tower made out of Lego.

6)"Confucius is confused!" - Anthony Mosse

7)Isaac Newton did not say 'Gravity!' when the apple hit his head. More likely 'Ouch!'

8)"Money can't buy anything, but without money you can't buy a thing!" - Chinese saying

9)"No sex?" - Professor Leslie, in any nonchalant question that has nothing to do with nothing

10)To people who said that pornography is a form of art, why don't you paint pandas having intercourse? - In relation to the not-so-recent panda-porn method to get the Chinese pandas to do captive breeding

New Update

I just don't have any nice and fancy topics ok?

___________________________________________________________________

Professor Leslie shall discuss about overall happiness and health today.

Professor Leslie has read in Reader's Digest, January 2007 edition that eccentrics are generally happier people!

According to Dictionary.com ( my browser's cranking up on me like it has ED. I am using Internet Explorer to update. Sabrina helped me find the actual description for the word )

Eccentric means
6. a person who has an unusual, peculiar, or odd personality, set of beliefs, or behavior pattern.

In Professor Leslie's words, someone who doesn't make sense.

Wow, its been proven that NOT making sense actually helps make you happier! NOT making sense has the same effects as chocolates! Which makes sense because eating chocolates are NOT making any sense!!

Alright, so this is a community message by Professor Leslie.

It is easy to make sense. But you find it difficult to NOT make sense. And do you know that a lot of jokes that are damn funny don't make sense?

Of course, you might feel self conscious to make sense all the time. But let me tell you this, making sense does not make sense. Our earliest ancestors bonk each other on the head with a hard and heavy item as greeting. You think they are uncivilized? They think you full of shit.

Therefore making sense is extremely subjective. When everyone in the world starts to NOT make sense, the world will be a happier place!

So, start a simple goal to NOT make sense at least once everyday! It lowers your blood pressure, promotes health and overcomes Erectile Dysfunction!

Here are a few suggestion of how to NOT make sense and have people scrambling to take your temperature!

1 ) Start your day feeling senseless! Get down the stairs and see your mother preparing breakfast, rush towards her and give her a hug, then turn back and say "MUM YOU SCARE THE BEJABBERAHSKDsalSAE OUT OF ME!! I LOVE YOU MUM!"

2 ) Go out in the streets, grab a hose and spray the person in front of you. Then smile and say 'Happy new day!'

3 ) Buy a ktm ticket and throw it in the tracks then get arrested and laugh it off

4 ) Cry because there's a plate of roasted chicken on your dinner table. Lament and overdramatize on how the chicken could have led a happier life filled with hens and lots of sex.

5 ) Say hi and hug your tree everyday ( hey this actually is true you know )

6 ) Get downstairs, see you father who is reading the newspaper, snatch the newspaper from him and give him a kiss on his cheek then slam the newspaper back in his face.

7 ) And of course, run around naked in your own room. Take a video and send it to me. I mentioned this in my previous post.

These are but 7 simple ways to NOT make sense. An unwritten, but now written way is to type a blog post such as this that does NOT make any sense at all.

Damnit, I feel happier already

Movie reviews

Considering the fact that I have been watching wayy lots of movies recently, I shall name a few and write about why you should not watch it.

First up! ( Note, no pictures. Lazy find )

The Pianist - Heard of it, sounded interesting, downloaded it, watched it.

Verdict : Very good. They made a good portray of the suffering during the Holocaust. But damn the torrent version, it came without subtitles. Screw! How the heck am I supposed to understand what the Germans were blabbering when I don't know any German vocab beyond 'Oui oui!'? It was a good movie that makes you rethink about why discriminations happen. Throughout the entire movie, you can see the Jews swearing and hoping that the German's ass would be kicked by the UN in WW2, but in fact the Jews were getting their ass kicked. However, despite the hate and shit, there are still kind souls among the Germans. I shalt not elaborate for fear of spoilers, watch it then you know. But get one with subtitles -_-

Score : 4.5

Dragonheart

Verdict : Good. I always fancied dragons, and my Chinese zodiac is of the dragon. In this movie, you come to realize that even great ones make mistakes. And how a single catastrophic mistake can change a man to be the exact opposite of what he was. It also tells of the bloodlust of men granted power, and how sacrifices are to be made at times to overcome a problem. Touching, this movie makes you look at the skies for stars at times.

Score : 4.2

Reign of Fire

Verdict : So-so.. This movie tells about how excavations in the centre of London awoke dragons sleeping underneath, and then proceeded to terrorize and scorch the Earth for the next 20 years, eating humans and burning everything in their paths. That was what was meant as the reign of fire, since the dragons have two glands that secrete chemicals to produce nitro-napalm, in general terms breathing fire.

Score : 2.9

Pirates of The Carribean 3 : At World's End

Verdict : Ok. I always enjoyed the PoTC movies, of course one of the reasons being Keira Knightley ( damn she looks skinny ). Alright, on to the review. I always thought the first one was the best, since the 2nd one was mostly about a Kraken monster eating everyone up. I always wondered why the cruel Lord Beckett never met that beast in the open sea, but well, question not the movie producers. Anyway, the 3rd one continues from the 2nd movie ( Dead man's chest ). A few twists here and there.. hmm hmm.. Chow Yunn Fatt's acting wasn't impressive. Somewhat disappointed. Calypso was a piece of shit. Davy Jones was cool. Jack Sparrow as usual was funny and somewhat immortal. Undead Monkeys in cannons was a good idea, figurines in cannons sound stupid. And there doesn't seem to be much sequence from the 1st movie to the 2nd, but there is an obvious sequence from the 2nd to the 3rd.

Score : 3.8

Shrek 3

Verdict : Ok. I don't know why is everyone so crazy about this. King Arthur, Sir Lancelot the Asshole, Merlin the stupid wizard, and the usual characters. Wasn't exactly impressive, what with the overused jokes. I liked the Puss in Boots though. And the idea of soul-switching is soooo original. Whats it with movie producers and soul switching? The general idea is that when two totally opposite people switch souls and characters they can produce hilarious results. Yes, that worked the first 2 times. After that, its all very predictable. But well, this movie made me laugh. I give it at least that.

Score : 2.5

Spiderman 3

Verdict : Can't say much since I haven't watched the 2nd one and rather vague memory of the first one. But all in all, Venom's cool. Sandman seemed indestructible, and his daughter's plight was not resolved. Some predictable and corny plot. Best friends turn foe, try to kill each other, then realize mistake, helps friend and dies in the process. Other than that the only other annoying thing was the repeated scenes of 'helpless maidens' hanging from a great height and a lot of screaming. Rather good actions, and basically tells you what not to do with a troubled girlfriend.

Score : 4.3

Currently waiting for : Rush Hour 3, Transformers, and Fantastic Four ( I haven't watched the first.. >.< )

Health

Today Professor Leslie shall discuss about health.

As we all know, health plays a vital role in a penguin's life. And well, maybe a human's too. But which human cares anyway, as long as his/her sex health is healthy enough, everything else can go to hell.

Alright, back to an interesting topic. Professor Leslie shall elaborate on mental health. To be more specific, its not health related actually, but an interesting behaviour that will lead to a health problem.


Observe ( yes more penguins ). I call it the Football syndrome.

After much observation, namely two subjects I made observations on ( no not lab mice, nor penguins, they are Christopher and Zhi Wei , I conclude that fans of football all suffer from this syndrome.

You see, when they are playing the football game 'FIFA whateveryear', they get some kind of hormonal arousal that makes them high. And when they score against an opposing team, that's their hand signal. Both hands up. With a cheeky face that you want to slap the bloody shit out of him.

Of course, in what way is this related to health? Honestly I am not sure either. My hypothesis is that, when they do this hand signal, they get a sudden surge of blood to the brain. The hormones produced ( I said before, they get hormone arousal when they play FIFA ) make the blood hormone rich, and this in turn makes them high.

The good thing about this is that, it releases stress and probably make them a healthier individual as they are generally happier. That's good.

The bad side is that, the extra surge of blood to the brain might make them smarter. That's one. The other downside is that they might suffer blood deprivation to the lower parts of the body, particularly the symmetrical line waist down. This could cause the dreaded 'flacid tentacle' that men fear most, especially old lecherous men.

And the conclusion? Congratulations you just spent 12398112642 seconds of your life reading something totally unfounded and stupid. I bet that makes you healthier!

__________________________________________________________________
On to another observation about health of mine. This is not exactly unfounded. But it is unproven... so far.

I have decided that people who think too much tend to have white hair or are balding.

For an interesting example, I have chosen Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton. Of course, your physics teacher probably applies under this law too. Unless he's a fresh graduate. Visit him in 10 years time.

The picture you see is the world famous scientist Albert Einstein. He was the one who is credited the creation of the nuclear bomb. Now, we all know that nuclear scientists really think a lot. That is a pure assumption.

Sir Isaac Newton and his lustrous locks of WHITE hair. If you try to tell me that Sir Isaac Newton actually has blonde or whatever colour, I will act like an asshole and tell you that he was wearing a wig because you would be proving that I am wrong. Professor Leslie never wrong, therefore I am always right. In that way you are wrong when you prove that I am wrong.

Enough babbling. Sir Isaac Newton realized the existence of gravity when an apple hit his head. I can conclude from here that he thinks too much, therefore leading to the discovery of the gravity factor in Force.

Normally, any normal individual struck by an apple on the head would probably go
"Knn CCB! Blardy farking tree want play is it? *kicks tree* Lim Peh eat all your fruit and shave you bald then you know!!! Niahma eh.."

But Sir Isaac Newton went 'Hey, why didn't the apply drop upwards?'. Hence, his white hair.

Of course, if you try and tell me balding old men don't think too much, you are wrong.

Balding old men do think too much. ( Exclude scientists and professionals in this category, they have too much to think about already ). Balding old men you normally come across in the coffeeshop thinks too much about sex. Yes you heard me. Thinking too much about sex can cause you to be bald/have white hair.

See see? I am right eh, you just realized.

So for your hair health, don't think at all! I promise you Rapunzel will be jealous of your hair.

Note : The above post is meant for entertainment as usual. Huge fans of any of the characters mentioned above, please do take it as a joke ;)

I do appreciate their contribution. Now lets go shoot someone and blow everything up. Thanks Albert! ( Ok that was a very sick and bad joke -__-" )

Weirdoes

Professor Leslie shall discuss about an interesting topic here, which might most probably apply to many of you out there, or will apply to in the near future.

Housemates.

After living a month here in Subang, I find I have very very weird housemates.

How so? I shall summarize it in a few words then explain with many many words ( ok that was rather redundant )

First thing. Sun up, all gone, sun down, all out.
Second thing. They can't tell the difference between a kitchen sink and a dustbin
Third thing. They use the toilet in a very disturbing way.
And other miscellaneous weird stuff.

Sun up, all gone, sun down all out. What the hell did I mean? You see, broad daylight time, they are all mysteriously gone. I mean, gone. Their room doors are locked. Lights are off. Windows shut. Either they went out, or they seriously are sleeping the day away. Its 3pm now. And its like I just described.

And at night? All doors are open. All lights are on. And the guys are laughing like horny ah bengs and swearing and chattering in Cantonese, but they sound like monkeys and not the rather funny dialect. I was up reading until 3am last night. And they sounded like its 3pm for them. Now its actually 3pm, it sounds like 3am here.

And you know what? The guys here don't look like they are studying. Whenever you see them, they are watching some 1000 year old chinese drama on their laptops. The girls are constantly studying. Don't tell me they went for college in the morning. I did not see a single one of them go out. Unless they went out at 4am -_-

2nd thing. They use the sink as a trash bin. Attract all the ants around. Ma fuckers. Don't even have the sense to pool money and buy a proper trash bin.

3rd thing. There's this guy who wakes up at 7am everyday without fail. He will then proceed to the toilet. 7am you know. And he stays in there. and stays in there. Until 7.45am. Not a single sound. If he's constipated everyday, or god forbid he masturbates everyday, its not the proper time man -_- I had to forego my morning baths ( though usually is because its too cold for me xD Suddenly I find I fear cold after coming back from NS. Give me back my layer of fat man. Ah never mind then ). Anyway, after he comes out from the toilet, he goes into the room, slams it and that's the end of it. You don't see him coming out after that.

Funny people do funny things. Weird people do weird things. Stupid people say stupid things ( because they are too stupid to do stupid things ).

After due consideration, Professor Leslie has decided and concluded by his own opinion that these people are weirdoes suffering from inferiority complex.

They want to go out and live alone, away from their parents or be called 'Mama's boy that hides behind mama's skirts'. They want to be called 'Girl's boy that hides under the girls' skirts'. Go find out yourself what i meant :p

Anyway, they want to have a life of their own. But sadly they no skill to keep their time occupied. So they turn nocturnal, masturbates every morning and mistakes the sink as the trash bin ( probably the trash bin they are used to seeing is the same colour as the sink ). They can't cook, the smell testifies that. BURNT smell.

And Professor Leslie has thought of a solution to cure their syndromes. They should start eating potatoes, and bamboos with peanut butter and worship the Great Guin and the Polarized Panda while begging for forgiveness. Then they should just whack themselves in the head and jump off from the roof while yelling 'AKREEEGAAAAAAAYEEEGAAAAAAA!'

_________________________________________________________________

Feeling stressed? Professor Leslie has a sure way of curing your pent up emotions and vent your frustrations and release your stress.

How? Alright let Professor Leslie explain step by step.

Things you need first :
1 ) Your own room. Make sure there is nobody else in the room when you do this.
2 ) Maybe a big stuffed toy ( no penguins or pandas allowed )
3 ) Better yet, make sure there's nobody in your own house nor in your neighbouor's house first.

No I am not asking you to sexually abuse the stuffed toy you sick pervert you.

First take off your clothes, maybe leave your undergarments on if you like. Remember you are alone.

Run around yelling like a mad freak in your room, and take the big stuffed toy, imagine it to be someone or something you hate. Its your football now.

Scream 'AYEEEGAAAKREEGAAAYEEGAAAAA!!!' at the top of your lungs.

Do this for about 15-30 minutes.

Guarantee you feel much better. :)

And no, I don't do that.

For an added bonus, make a video of yourself doing that. Watch it after the said duration. Then swear 'OMG WTF BBQ I DID THAT?' and then eat peanut butter. Remember to put on your clothes first.

For an even greater added bonus, send that video to me. Then I will go 'OMG WTF BBQ THAT IS 'whoeveryouare'?' Then I will make an interesting conclusion like 'Hmm, he/she needs help. I shall post it in my blog.'

Of course, the added bonuses are optional.

This is another community message from Professor Leslie to help overcome stress syndrome sucks ( SSS ).

Remember, Professor Leslie never wrong. I am always right.
