復刻堂2010超人罐裝飲品

By Mitch | Published: 8 May, 2010

While browsing in Sogo supermarket today, I spotted a shelf of familiar iconic colors & patterns. It’s the 復刻堂 (Hukkokudo) Hero soft drinks from Japan! Thought it will never reach Hong Kong but then it’s here.

They have cans of Kamen Rider and Ultraman. Bought a can of my favorite character Kamen Rider V3.

In case you are too old or too young to recall anything about it, here are photos of V3. Rilakkuma likes it too 8p

Iron Man 2

By Mitch | Published: 1 May, 2010

Another master piece from the Marvel land. Once again you’ll see Stan Lee on the big screen for a brief second. Don’t miss it 8)

The plot this time is simple but never bores you with all the graphical scenes. It’s packed with actions from the two heroes – Iron Man and War Machine. The only thing you might want to see in the movie is probably for Spider-man to meet Iron man. Can’t wait to see Captain America and Thor before they join Iron Man with Nick Fury. Arrhh such a long wait.

Don’t leave the cinema til the very end for a hint of the next hero coming to the big screen!

Hands on a real iPad briefly for a few minutes. Web browsing is very snappy. Can’t tell much about other aspects though and it’s not in my hands then LOL

Kick-Ass the movie

By Mitch | Published: 28 Apr, 2010

Watched Kick-Ass the movie and it’s a good one. No wonder its rating is so high in IMDB and at top of box office in America.

Got a number of unexpected moments that gives a little surprise to audiences now and then through out the whole movie with great selection of songs.

Love Hit-Girl & Big Daddy. Not to mention I’m a big fan of Nicholas Cage 8))

Totally recommend to comical movie loving adults due to occasional crude violence scences.

iPad arrives in Hong Kong 2 days after its grand launch in US

By Mitch | Published: 6 Apr, 2010

iPad is probably great but no Traditional Chinese input yet (read the last point of Labguages on Tech Spec) and now people are paying 60-70% more for the parallel import iPad?! WTF

I can understand buying expensive products without warranty just for the cool factor. But I don’t get it when the product has no Traditional Chinese support for someone living in Hong Kong. How on Earth cam you Google for local stuff?! Are those people living in Simplified Chinese world only?!

Read the AppleDaily news about the iPad price in Mongkok.
