Taken from Limpek.com, the funny blog and place that I go when I need humour and don’t have free passes to stand-up comedy shows.

 

Here’s how dating will be like in the future with the latest technology.

Tricky Thursday : KidSExChange

-

 

I came across this by email some time ago about a kid’s clothes store called Kid’s Exchange.

EVo’s Believe it or not : 100 Transformers2 tickets

-

 

Two years ago, when I heard that there was going to be a movie called Transformers, I was really char-dou.

 

As far as I could remember (flashback around 4-5 years), Transformers (picture me with a very skeptical face), was just a cartoon about an over-ambitious Optimus Prime with his Autobots (more skeptical face) and an even more over-ambitious Megatron with his Decepticons,

 

And these robots were continuously fighting, for some reason.

 

Of course, when I was a kid, Transformers was heaven-sent. I watched the show in amazement, wondering how these robots could switch from ‘Hot-Wheels’ vehicles to weapon-wielding super-heroes. I could never get enough of collecting these action figures and playing with them for hours alone on my living room floor.

 

 

At that time, all the boys wanted to be Optimus Prime, the Tai Ko.

And nobody wanted to be Megatron.

After awhile, I expectedly got BORED. Sure la, how many of these toys can you collect anyway. And thanks to technology being copied transferred to Asian countries, any plastic thing that can change shape is called a Transformer.

And who knew that 15 years down the road, the Transformer hype would be back again, thanks to a crazy genius called Michael Bay…

…who made Transformers an insane success last year, and I must admit that the show really revived my childhood memories. I’m not saying that I will start collecting these action figures again (even if I did, I wouldn’t have time to play with them on my living room floor), but when I heard that Transformers 2 : Revenge of the Fallen was out, I flipped.

 

 

The babe hero robot team is back!!

The amount of publicity was appalling. Radio stations, mobile phone companies, operators, Burger King, KFC were all neck deep in the advertising of this new movie. All sorts of companies that could participate have participated.

If Transformers could get married and have babies, Pampers would surely be there to advertise for their diapers.

So, to catch up with the hype, my friend Thong Kai decided that he would do something different for this show.

He would go to GSC @ Midvalley and buy tickets one week in advance for the movie. Many, many tickets. When I asked him how many he was buying, he wasn’t really sure. Until after he bought it, I asked him how many he got.

I was initially quite concerned, what if we couldn’t get enough people to come? If it was FOC like other movie screenings, it’ll finish within hours, but it was a fully paid-for thing (RM12 / ticket – counter price) and Malaysians didn’t like paying for anything.

 

 

But I was wrong.

 

 

Within a few hours, 30-40 of the tickets were scooped up by those I invited.

 

And by this morning, 90+ tickets were taken by mine and Thong Kai’s friends. And I had more people trying to cram in (I felt so bad saying ‘No’!)

 

Damn lah, Kai, you should have bought all 150 seats! >_<

Anyway, the guest list goes like this:

Renee Tay x 6
Patrick Toon x 4
Leowazza x 2
Joshua Chay x 6
EGo
Missycheerio x 2
Kok Wui x 8
Beverly x 5
Me & Psychkin

Thong Kai’s other friends.

 

Fualamaaa. This is gona be CRAZY…..!!

 

I also happened to be lucky enough to win 4 passes from Hitz.fm for tomorrow’s screening at 9.30 Cineleisure. I’m looking to give away 1 pair (this one’s for free). Any takers?

And I’m really very interested to know how they will translate ‘Transformers 2 : Revenge of the Fallen’ to Malay. What do you think it’ll be? Well…my guess is…

Oh boy, I can’t WAIT.
