My Love For Life Review

Toy Story is one of my all time favorite 3D computer-animated movie series. I own the 2-disc "10th Anniversary Edition" containing Toy Story and Toy Story 2 plus additional bonus content. When I first heard the news about the third movie, Toy Story 3, I was waiting with much anticipation for the official theatrical release.

I finally got the chance to watch Toy Story 3 during a weekend last month with my cousin and I have to say the movie exceeded my expectations! We were lucky to find seats with good viewpoints in the cinema which contributed to the pleasant movie watching experience. Well enough chit chat and allow me to get straight into business: Toys Story 3.

Toys Story 3 starts off when Andy, who is now a 17 years old teenager, has lost his interest for his toys. Without giving too much away, Toy Story 3 is about transitional growing pains I suppose. And this time around, Ken and Barbie play a bigger role in the plot. Like the previous movies, friendship and co operation remain as the core values in the heart warming story. On a technical note, the CGI used in the animation is a perfect match with the story that manages to portray the vital essence of the movie flawlessly on screen.

Toy Story 3 is a movie that I strongly recommend for everyone. Even if you have not seen the first two, you can easily jump right in and enjoy the ride. I will definitely be getting the Toy Story 3 DVD when it is released.

Time for a delivery review of the HP Mini 210 netbook. It has been a while since my post on my Dell Mini 9.In case anyone's wondering, this HP Mini 210 netbook isn't mine. It belongs to my uncle. Here is an overview of the delivery box. It was sent via courier service so delivery was considered fast. Although the packing box is mono toned, it does have a nice design.

Remember how my revoltech delivery arrived in ok condition last week? Well this week is going to get tougher. I was shocked when the postal staff handed me the delivery box during collection. Here is an overview of the delivery box. Just look how crumpled it is!

I have put off watching Iron Man 2 for too long already and my chance of watching it came by during the recent long stretch of holiday break. To be honest, I have anticipated that this sequel will not surpass the original due to the casting of Mickey Rourke as Ivan Vanko, the main villian this time. I just get the impression that Ivan Vanko is a drunkard throughout Iron Man 2.

In a nutshell, Iron Man 2 is about how Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is coping with his deteriorating health and jugling his fame as Iron Man at the same time. The introduction of Scarlett Johansson as Natalie Rushman/Natasha Romanoff is a welcomed sight which adds the much needed diversity in the cast of female leads. Gwyneth Paltrow does a decent job reprising her role as Virginia "Pepper" Potts but her character just doesn't have the sultriness to capture the attention of the audience.

Despite its shortcomings, Iron Man 2 is enjoyable to watch. The CGI usage is on par with the first movie and some of the action scenes literary blows everything away.

As a followup to my TT Hongli HG Gundam Exia Model Kit assembly video posted last week, here is the actual review of the assembled TT Hongli HG Gundam Exia Model Kit. Compared to my previous Bandai NG 1/100 Gundam Exia Review, this TT Hongli HG Gundam Exia is smaller at 1/144 scale. Here is the comparison of the TT Hongli HG Gundam Exia with the clear soda can. The TT Hongli HG Gundam Exia is slightly taller than the clear soda can by 1cm at the highest tip of the V fin.

As a followup to my TT Hongli HG Gundam Exia Model Kit introduction review last week, here is the assembly video as promised!
