Must-see Transformers

Now, this isn’t a review of Transformers 2… I haven’t seen it myself yet.

I have seen part one and it was typical teenage fair. In typical Michael Bay tradition, he amped it up in the sequel. The most obvious result is that Megan Fox is SO sexy, it hurts my eyes.

That’s her at the LA Premiere of Transformers
… The only way for Michael Bay to go further will be to have Megan Fox go topless in T3!

New Conan, Arnold clone found

Roland Kickinger

  • is born in Austria (check)
  • has been a pro bodybuilder (check)
  • probably sports a thick Austrian accent (check)

I guess the list could go on and on. I could imagine someone from Nu Image is having a DUH moment right now. They’ve looked everywhere but the one place where Arnolds are born and bred. They gotta be careful though, so that photos of him in skinny jeans don’t surface anytime soon.

Review: How to Lose Friends & Alienate People

lose friends  alienate peopleDon’t worry! How to Win Friends and Influence People is not essential reading in order to enjoy this movie.

The movie is based on a memoir by British writer Toby Young. So you could say, this is a TRUE story. Or rather, it would’ve been, if the the script writer didn’t change the memoirs almost completely… which is an irony itself.

The plot is straight-forward
: Sidney Young, a small time journalist, goes to New York City. His task is to cover the world of celebrities. In order to keep his job, he has to do a favorable article about Sophie Maes (sexy Megan Fox even without makeup).

Sidney is attracted to Sophie and all the glitz. However, when Sophie is high and he has a shot, he … well, misses.

The movie has a few funny moments but it goes too many times from romantic comedy to satire and back again. The only redeeming feature is that we get to see Megan Fox wet and almost nude.
