2011 Emmys' Nominations

The nominees of the 63rd Primetime Emmy have been name. Mildred Pierce took the biggest number of nominations with 21 nominations. While Mad Men took 19 nominations, Boardwalk Empire and Modern Family took 18 and 17 nominees respectively.

Surprises for me in the nominations, John Noble from Fringe did not get any nominations, he was excellent with his character in the latest season. Fringe did get one nomination, but it was in Creative Media, not the show it self, I really think it was their best season, compare to the first two season, and those two season, they were even nominated.

Game of Thrones did really well in the TV. Taken audience by surprise and quickly establish fan base around the world. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend this to you. This year, for their first season, they had 13 nominations! Pretty impressive, considering the series had only 10 episodes this season. The biggest surprises is that Peter Dinklage got his nomination for Best Supporting Actor as Tyron Lannister, absolutely deserve it.

However, The Walking Dead and Glee didn't do to well this time. There was no nominations for The Walking Dead except for technical nominations, this could be contribute to the fact that the first season only had 6 episodes, too little to judge anything I guess. While Glee only got some nominations for supporting role, it did not get nominated in the big league for leading role or director and writer category, which just show that singing does not necessarily means acting.

Glee's Exclusive! 4th season shocker!

Glee's regulars, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Chris Colfer will NOT be returning for the fourth season.

This came as a shock, when Glee's co-creator Ryan Murphy said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that the three of them will graduate at the end of season 3. Adding that it will be most logical thing to do, as they started the series as a sophomore and graduate high school by season 3.

Murphy also said that more character are leaving than staying when the series end it's third season, who is graduating and staying will be reveal when the new season start this Sept. 20th.

I for once, am sad about this, but it is the way how it works, you can't have this guy on the show for six seasons, it just wouldn't be right. I just hope that when the fourth season open, new faces, with more talents would fill in their shoes.

For more on this, go to The Hollywood Reporter.

It's here! DSLR mount for your iPhone

Here's another weird product for those with iPhone and love to take photos whenever and wherever you can.

Say that you went out with intention of taking photos when suddenly you forgot your DSLR body and only brought along your lenses, don't worry! There's a product out there where you can mount your DSLR lenses with your iPhone! Yes, it is here.

Brought to you by the people at PhotoJojo. iPhone users had always feel that there's more that we can do with the camera, and so their wish came true. The DSLR mount can be put to good use with wide range of Nikon and Canon lenses, so in case you forgot your DSLR when you go out, you could just attach it to your iPhone (of course you need an iPhone for this).

Bersih 2.0, support or against?

So, I've been thinking about whether to put this up or not, I just doesn't feel right, if I at least didn't say something.

Regardless of your political view, just read this and judge it on two sides for the once. If you been keeping about Bersih 2.0, (which is really hard to ignore right now), I'm sure you guys have different views and opinions about the rally.

So here's my thoughts and view, again, this is purely educational, no harsh words will be thrown. To make it brief, Bersih 2.0 is a rally that main objectives include, a clean elections, stop dirty politics, reform the postal and stop corruption. In all sense, it is a good move right? So why does Barisan Nasional feel threaten by the rally? Because they afraid that it is a move by the Pakatan Rakyat to get people support, which makes sense if you ask me, but why?

Barisan Nasional is the government currently, of course when you're talking about making a clean slate of all the objectives in the rally, it would indirectly point to the government, thus making them look bad. However, this is not the case, it is also stated that Bersih 2.0 wants a clean politics, does this involve BN alone? Of course not, we also have the Pakatan in politics, and lets not forget the scandals Keadilan Party had this past months.

A question does come to mind, why does BN so intend to stop the rally, if the elections is clean? Why not let the people rally, it's not like they are going to start a riot, they just want to gather, show support that the people are still the power in democratic country.

Some would say that a rally is not a good image to be shown a country, how do you purpose we do it? Through the legal and right channel? Of course this is close to impossible. Do you know that every democratic country has 3 main branches? The Executive branch, the Legislative branch and the Judiciary branch. The Executive branch govern the country, the Legislative branch makes or change the constitution while the Judiciary branch is the law and suppose to be independent, however, there is influence on appointing judges by the Prime Minister (you can read it in Wikipedia).

The King will appoint the judges, however the candidates names are given by Prime Minister, so how can the Judiciary be independent and just if the judges are appointed by the political party that govern the country? So, most of the judges and people involve in this branch probably support the current government, think about it. That is why the right and legal channel is hard to take.

I am not influencing people to join the rally, but it would be a great view that people still holds the power in a democratic country. You tell that you support democracy, when you govern a country with totalitarian power. If you believe in BN, I have no problem, a little politic does not hurt, but don't close your eyes and blindly follow a leader, just because he's a leader, always question yourself.

I myself question the rally. If the objectives are really about changing the politics of this country or to show and gain support to Pakatan Rakyat? If the rally are really clean and peaceful, or will a riot breaks out? However, from recent history, it has been shown that a peaceful rally in Malaysia turns deadly when police involve, which comes to another question, for whom does the police works for? Barisan Nasional or the people?

Interestingly, the Chief of Police whom is also elected by The King, are chosen from candidates the Prime Minister chose, is this even legal? Yes, yes it is, because that's how weird our constitution is.

So are the rally really a political move? I can say yes, just because BN are so intent on stoping the rally. On one hand, people that are always witness the injustice and how dirty the political and election process, just want something to actually be clean and fair. If this is a political move to topple the government, it would be another unfair move by Pakatan, if you really want to won the heart and mind of the people, let start by buying all the medias outlet, that openly support BN, then we can change the people heart and mind set.

There are people that are stuck in between, people that would just like a normal weekend afternoon. People that need to work, that have plan that day, this are the people that hoping to avoid the clash of police and the rally's supporter.

A democracy can't be achieve by single person alone, that is why we have this rally, to show that people still support democracy. Let's hope that the rally will be peaceful, and that life will return to normal after that, and hoping that the police does not make things worse, you already have a bad reputation for being the government's servant.

So are you supporting or against?

Transformes 3 review

I had the chance to watched Transformers: Dark Side of The Moon with the family yesterday. So here's my take on the movie.

First of all, it's a simple 4/5 stars, easy, because of this reason, the action, explosive, battle scenes was AWESOME. The original cast was great as always, funny and entertaining, thanks to the great dialog, and good acting. The storyline although good written, seems kinda long, but it's to put in all the important part in, so no harm there.

Why didn't I gave it a 5 stars? Because of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and her acting. Here's proving a point that being good looking, does not necessarily mean you can act. Although, she did get more dialog that Megan Fox ever get in the 2 movies, kudos to the writer for that. But her acting was so bad, that you wish Megan Fox would come back. The worst part for me, is her facial expression, it is kinda the same whether she's mad, or scared, or happy, God woman, did you took botox or something?!

If you saw the movie, you would agreed what Megan Fox said about Michael Bay trying to exploit woman, making things sexy and hot, while degrading them. You could see from the camera angle, and some scene that it does really make one think WTF was that for?! Like the scene when she standing in the road try to look sexy while things blowing up around her.

Micheal Bay's view to appease the 16 years old with making Rosie Huntington-Whiteley a sexy symbol does work, it's a good strategy if you're don't care much about acting though. I for one am.

If you thinking, "I am watching the movie for the robots", well, you would be disappointed. The robots, only fight for a few times, and most of the times, the fight last like 10 minutes top, Optimus Prime has the worst role in the 3rd sequel, not to put any spoiler, but he is not feeling his mojo in this movie.

The whole movie was overpowered by the human armies, which is not bad, since the action was superb, but the movie is call Transformers, so it's kinda miss the mark there. Plus, the juvenile-like love scene can be cut down a lil bit more, it's just too yucky.

So, all and all, the movie was a 4/5 stars. Action scene was AWESOME. Robot fight scene was brief, and make you want more! Especially when the story is near 3 hours long! Optimus Prime loss its mojo. Human armies definitely rules! Love story is kinda overpowering for me. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley can't act, but has much more dialog than Megan Fox. If you want to see some great action and sexiness, this is definitely great movie to watch, just bring extra popcorn or drinks.
