iPhone SLR Mount

If you are a DSLR owner chances are you have a bunch of other lenses.  And if you also are an iPhone owner do you sometimes dream that you could at least use your UWA, your Macro or your 50mm lenses with your iPhone?

Well I guess some dreams really could come true.  Presenting the iPhone SLR Mount -- where you could now attach your lenses with your iPhone.  Now would this really actually work?  What's the picture quality like?  The skeptic in me is reserving all my judgements until I saw a sample shot.

Star Wars: The Blueprints

If you ever sometimes feel the need to build your own fully-functional Death Star or Millenium Falcon and if you have $500 lying around then this book is for you.  Truly for the hardcore of Star Wars fans.

From the official site of Epic Ink:

Star Wars: The Blueprints brings together, for the first time, the original blueprints created for the filming of the Star Wars Saga. Drawn from deep within the Lucasfilm Archives and combined with exhaustive and insightful commentary from best-selling author J. W. Rinzler, the collection maps in precise, vivid, and intricate detail the very genesis of the most enduring and beloved story ever to appear onscreen.

Just watched Transformers: Dark of the Moon and I loved it!!!

Live long and prosper! Oops, wrong movie :)

WOW! I just wanted to say that the action scenes in Transformers: Dark of the Moon had just blown me away.  They are the biggest, the loudest and the most action-packed scenes that I have ever scene.  Forget about the tendency of some of the characters to overreact (I'm talking to you Sam!) and some of the dorky humor.  Just focus on Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots and the Decepticons and you'll have a grand time. Best surprise for me is Leonard Nimoy as the voice of Sentinel Prime.  This is truly a geeky moment for me since Leonard Nimoy also voiced Galvatron in the animated classic, Transformers: The Movie (1996).

Enough for now since I have to sleep.  Next, I would have a list of what I liked and what I didn't like about Transformers: Dark of the Moon.  See yah!

As expected, Transformers: Dark of the Moon is still the big winner from last weekend.  And again, as expected, they are already planning a second trilogy for Transformers with or without Shia.  I would prefer it without Shia since his mouth had grown too big lately and he just could not shut up.  As long as Optimus Prime and the gang are in there count me in for another big Transformers trilogy!

To Watch List: Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut

Here's the next movie on my To Watch List: Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut.  For those of you who have read the Watchmen graphic novel you may have missed the Tales of the Black Freighter from the theatrical release.  Fear not, in The Ultimate Cut, the animated Tales of the Black Freighter will be incorporated in the movie thus completing the Watchmen experience.

Ray Stevenson as Firefly in G.I.Joe 2: Cobra Strikes

The more I learn about the casting of G.I.Joe 2: Cobra Strikes the more I get excited!  And this latest casting news had made me excited even more.  Ray Stevenson, the guy who played The Punisher and Volstagg will now play the masked Cobra saboteur Firefly.  Now, if they would just use the classic Firefly costume from the cartoons, then I would be a very happy Joe fan.

Here's Firefly's file from YoJo.com:
