Ferrari F60: Sexiest F1 car for now

The 2008 F1 season ended with a bang in favor of Lewis Hamilton and McLaren (though they lost the Constructors’ Championship). For the upcoming 2009 season… the bang is even louder even if the season hasn’t started yet. And why is that? Even though Honda as of this writing is not going to participate for 2009’s season due to economic reasons (see the entry list)… new cars will one by one roll out from each competitors garage, to some a much needed update and to some to fully exploit changes in the rules. Ahead of the pack and to dispel “who copied who?”… the race gods from Maranello released the uber-sexy Ferrari F60!

I’ll leave it up to you people to spot the changes!!!

Transformers: What caught my eyes

In my “recent movie greats” list, which partly translates to my “greatest movies of all time” list, Transformers is on top and finally… it landed on HBO last month, December.

The movie has all the elements of greatness… hmmm… like Megan Fox!… and there’s so much going on that you’ll forget to blink from time to time. After watching Transformers for the very first time it was so damn good that I forgave Michael Bay for not keeping Bumble Bee as a Volkswagen Beetle.

The timing is just right. It's December! A time for chilling around the house with couch potato mode turned on! And so... I’ve watched Transformers twice on HBO… so far. And then I saw a scene that made me wonder! I don’t know how this scene could have escaped Michael Bay… so here goes…

The scene is where the military Special Forces tried to hide/smuggle the “all spark” by going into the city. They stopped upon seeing an F-22 Raptor appeared on top of the city which they believed came from the US Air Force as reinforcement/support. They popped smoke to signal the Raptor but Iron Hyde and Bumble Bee realized that the incoming Raptor is none other than the Decepticon… Star Scream. Seeing imminent attack from Star Scream, they put up a makeshift cover using a truck, which Star Scream hit with missiles resulting to Bumble Bee losing his ability to walk… With what just happened, Jazz, which is a Pontiac Solstice, was oddly just around and not in robot form and worst… not joining the action nor helping Bumble Bee… Sam (Shia Labeouf) even told him to move.
