James Bond: Quantum of Solace

I watched James Bond: Quantum of Solace today and the movie was great. I just couldn’t resist going to the cinema to watch it. I know I’m in the middle of exams and all but who cares. Actually my dad couldn’t resist offering me to go watch it with him so blame him…haha. Really…I swear. It was too late for him to deny me the movie once I agreed. He did try. I just brought up religion…

Anyway I’m no spoiler so there won’t be any in here…just the cars. I’ve got to tell you the Brits also don’t have any problem smashing up their precious cars. I won’t mind if they crashed their American built counterparts but they left those untouched. Unfortunately they wrecked their national pride and the pride of James Bond. Well…actually Bond (Daniel Craig) himself wrecked it…

The name of the car he wrecked

So… right now I’m gonna right the list & pictures of precious cars which made it to the cinemas…in order of their first appearances.

The cars and other transportation devices are found in different parts of the globe starting from a small town village named Siena in Italy.

You’ll see these two almost immediately the movie starts (haha…spoiler much!)Yea…the tunnel action in the trailer…

Aston Martin DBS: The ill-fated car

Alfa Romeo 159’s

Then you’ll get to see the first appearance of the Ford Street Ka somewhere down the movie timeline.

Range Rover Sport too...(a favourite of mine) shown in the picture with the plane.

Then you’ll come across the air fight scene consisting of Douglas DC-10 and whatever the other plane was. I couldn’t identify it in the middle of the action. Oh yea, a Huey Helicopter too.

Just a bit of spoiler. I couldn’t fathom why he traded his Range Rover for the Ugly DC-3 of the 1930’s era instead of the smaller lighter more modern plane just a few meters down the runway. You’ll know when you watch it….heehee…sorry

Then a very expensive plane costing dearer than the film budget itself makes several appearances here and there…What I meant was Gulfstream G550’s…

After that you’ll see these amazing looking Ford SUV’s. Ford Edge..

So as you can see, they brought in a whole lot of car casts this time and yet they didn’t bother to crash useless American car manufacturer’s which only look good on the outside but are full of crap on the inside. Instead they prefer to give a death sentence to an awfully priceless Aston Martin. I’m ashamed of Bond. Maybe its just tradition, Bond tradition. You know, even Pierce Brosnan (former Bond) crashed his cars from BMW’s to Astons.

Somehow I think on the film maker’s minds lay a reason that they can’t make good movie’s without wrecking god damn beautiful cars to get the audiences emotions running. At least this time I wasn’t emotionally distressed since Batman came out on cinema. The people who watched that with me all consoled me… including the part where a huge pile of money was burnt. Haha.

Overall, I’d recommend it to you to watch Bond and his gals…

Just one of them

Btw, I was so spoilt for choice with the cover I decided to put all of them up…haha… and almost all of them have something in common. November 007’s the official release date…hmm… look up at today’s date…

See you in cinema's by 006 November...(only for Bruneians)

Eagle Eye

I finally watched it last night... My first O Level paper starts on Monday and here I was watching a movie... No my parents didn't get mad...coz My dad offered me to join him...and so I went along with him...

The movie was fantastic... The action scenes were awesome and people in the cinema showed their paranoia~ But I did think it just pushes all the information we need to know as an audience right up our faces or just before a scene so that we could understand the whole thing... I actually watched it twice yesterday, Online and at the cinema and I realized there were a lot of things I had skipped or missed from my first watch. A bit more humour wouldn't hurt either, say...

Jerry Shaw: Why are we doing this?
Aria: No Questions Please...
Jerry Shaw: Can I ask just one question?
Aria: No Questions Please...
Jerry Shaw: I need to go to the toilet...
Aria: Oh Alright! You have 10 seconds...


but what I hated about the movie...especially Hollywood Movies in general, is that they never think twice of wrecking a beautiful and expensive car... In this case, they decided to wreck a beautiful black Porsche Cayenne!!! They should have given it to me instead, damn assholes...

Aria: Drive!
Fizu: Gladly!

I couldn't find the Porsche snapshot from the movie itself so here's a random picture to show you how they wrecked an awfully beautiful car...


After the movie I realized it was raining outside with loud thunder and blinding flashes of lightning. There were also policemen everywhere. I felt as if I was in a movie myself now, and my phone was vibrating... It was just a friend asking for some credit...

We stayed for a while hoping the weather would get better and I realized that the policemen were escorts to Al-Muhtadee Billah and Wife who was watching Mamma Mia! Like any petrol head would, I checked out their ride of course...

Now this couple is knowned to like Volkswagen. Pg Sarah has an Eos (or maybe Eos's) while Al Muhtadee Billah has surely Phantoms... and decided he'll use one last night and saving his Lamborghini from the awful weather. Here's the pic...Sorry for the blurriness, my phone's not up to the whole photography job.


Personally I like the Volvo S80 Escorts better...


An coincidentally as well, I overheard my dad talking with an inside person (whom happen to be his friend) say that Wu Chun, our big superstar was also there hanging around in the theatre. The person told my dad we could check it out but we decided not to. Not a big fan you know...

One more thing,

Aria: Study for your O Levels
Fizu: No, I'm done taking orders from you
Aria: You disobeyed!
Fizu: Then Kill Me
Aria: With Pleasure~

Aria: From today onwards, Fizu Romeo will be replaced by Fizu Ferrari, Son of Enzo Ferrari.
Fizu: Im still alive you idiot! (Pulling the plug)
Aria:F#*@ Y*%
