The Lost Atlantic

Long ago, there was a mystical kingdom called Atlantis located to the west of the beautiful city of Eden. Generations of Angels lived and worked there in peace. However, this peace was soon overwhelmed by the ferocity of war. After the war, Atlantis was torn from the land and sunk beneath the waves. Even after this tragedy the people of Eden sought peace. Recently, scientists from the Iron Castle Exploration Association have found the exact location of Atlantis. The first cooperation among four factions in history was created. They have created a great exploration ship, Habosen, and planned to go to Atlantis. While Angels all over Eden cheered their bravery and hoped for the best, evil shadows gathered under the water.

The Tops Animation Movie (WALL-E)


This week, I would introduce to all of you about the tops animation movie in Tanjung Golden Village (TGV) screen cinema. This movie was release in cinema at 27th of Jun 2008. WALL•E was written and directed by Andrew Stanton, produced by Jim Morris, co-produced by Lindsey Collins and features original and innovative sound design by Academy Award®-winner Ben Burtt and the inventive storyteller and technical geniuses at Pixar Animation Studios”) transport moviegoers to a galaxy not so very far away for a new computer-animated cosmic comedy about a determined robot named WALL•E.

This story is about after hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL•E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that WALL•E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet’s future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans (who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home). Meanwhile, WALL•E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen.

Joining WALL•E on his fantastic journey across a universe of never-before-imagined visions of the future, is a hilarious cast of characters including a pet cockroach, and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots.

Top Gear - Proton Satria Neo

Hi there...

Today we all would like to talk about Satria Neo, one of the car model produced by Proton. It is a 3 door hatchback with FF layout. There are two types of engine that powered the car. There are 1.3L straight-4 twin-cam Cam-Pro engine which produces 94bhp and another using 1.6L straight-4 twin-cam Cam-Pro engine which produces 110bhp.


The car was said as 'Budget kudos of Matalan, but not actually as bad as you'd expect. Rough engine note aside, it rides OK and the motor's reasonably peppy. Dodgy interior styling, though'. for the performance, the car received a rating around 3 stars out of 5. The car was said that you can feel the power when you are driving the 1.6L version but it isn't as quick as some and needs to be worked hard.


For driving and handling, the car received 4 stars because it handles well with a decent amount of grip at the front and well contained body lean with sharp steering. That i personally agreed because all proton cars starting with the Gen-2 handles so well. I still can drive around corner with high speed but i don't feel anything but just grip, grip and grip...


The lack of space causes this car to only received the rating of 1 stars in the spacious rating because the head and legroom are in short supply in the back and the boot isn't very big while 2 stars rating for the build quality with slight improvement over previous Protons but it still feels and looks too budget.


3 stars for the equipment with the entry SX includes a CD player, air con and electric windows while the GSX adds 16in alloys and climate control while safety for only 1 star because it just had 2 airbag and no traction control but it does has the ABS brake.


For owning it received 3 stars rating for the good fuel economy and low road tax while 1 star only for the value because it wasn't cheap enough for a budget brand.


Overall rating this car received 3/5 stars. Allthough the proton have come out with huge improvement, but it is still too expensives. The main rival for Proton Satria Neo are Fiat Punto, Vauxhall Corsa and Ford Fiesta

Top Gear - Perodua Myvi


Hi everybody..
How are you doing??.. Today i would like to write a preview about the Perodua Myvi which i came across from the top gear website at http://www.topgear.com/

Anyway, the Myvi are considered as 'A budget supermini from the king of budget supermini manufacturers that's not quite so, erm, budget' by the people from the top gear. Well I personally think that what they had said were true.

The performance rating for this car are just 3 stars out of 5. This is because there's just one engine 1.3-litre with 86bhp and pulling well through all five gears and it's not fazed by motorways. However it's not very refined and it can become loud when pushed too hard.

For driving, it also received around 3 stars because it nimble through the corners and not suffering from much oversteer or body roll but can be a bit crashy over potholes. Spaces also received rating of three stars.

2 stars for the build quality because it still uses too much shiny - cheap looking plastic and it is not pretty. Although strongly constructed.

Equipment received 4 stars while 2 stars goes to safety and owning and only 1 stars for the value because the price of 7k poundsterling for this car are too expensives. It is overprice by 1k.

Overall the car received rating of only 2 stars out of 5.

Top Gear - Gen 2


Hi...
So a few days ago i go through the top gear website. The top gear is a British's BBC television series about automobile and they also published a magazine based on their program. But we are not going to talk about the program.

As i came across their website, there are review about cars from all major car producers like the Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Bentley, Aston Martin, Mercedes, Audi, BMW, Cadillac, Rolls Royce, Nissan and there are also Proton and Perodua.

One of the car that being reviewed are the Proton Gen-2. They said that the Gen-2 is a new budget five-door hatchback that's very European in concept, although it's a concept that's five years old so don't expect to blown away by razor-sharp dynamics.

In their evaluation for performance, the Gen - 2 scored 3 stars out of 5. For driving and handling, it scores 4 stars while 3 stars for space inside the car because the rear roofline hinders headspace. Only 2 stars for build quality and equipment but it is worse for safety because its only scores 1 stars because the car was only provided with 2 airbags at the front and ABSless brakes. For owning and valued the gen 2 gets 3 stars as it is an affordable car and consumed fueled around 39 mile per gallon. It is a small step forward by proton but there's a lot of thing needed to be improved. Overall scores for this car is 3/5stars. The main rival for Proton Gen - 2 are Mazda3 and Chevrolet Lacetti.
