Evolusi KL Drift (2008)
Directed by: Syamsul Yusof
Starring: Fasha Sandha, Farid Kamil, Syamsul Yusof, Aaron Aziz
Distributed by: Skop Productions Sdn Bhd, Grand Brilliance Sdn Bhd
Language: Malay
Movie review (jdmasia):
To start, the movie is unashamedly a tribute of sorts to FATF: Tokyo Drift, and it’s not just my opinion, even the director of the movie has been quoted as saying that himself. It was a wholly-locally produced event with a budget of RM2,000,000 (about $630,000 USD), which is quite high-end for a local production.
I’ve got to say, as far as a lot of the driving scenes are concerned, I do respect them for what they did in this movie simply because there was not one bit of CG trickery like a lot of the scenes in Tokyo Drift. Although I doubt they’ll win any stunt-driving awards, they definitely deserve credit for that. Two scenes in the movie were a blatant ripoff of the scene in Tokyo Drift where Han circles the R33 with the two females inside, so it was a bit disappointing when it comes to originality. <jdmasia>
Synopsis:
The movie tells the story of Zack and Sham, close friends who share a passion for drift racing. Though the sport is popular with men, Zack’s girlfriend (played by Fasha Sandha) took up the sport and became competitive in it. Zack is an elite racer who runs a workshop while Sham is more down to earth and always has problems with his racing car. Zack is unhappy with drug pushers selling on his racing patch, but Fasha (who is a former user) is friendly with some of them which leads to a confrontation between her and Zack. The pushers are sent to their boss Joe (played by Aaron Aziz) ,also a drift racer who uses race meets to sell his product.
A rift continues to grow between Zack and Fasha. Sham (played by Farid Kamil) becomes a middleman between the two but ends up also having feelings for her. Zack wins a challenge against Joe but falls out with Sham despite the latter’s numerous apologies and attempts to distance himself from Fasha. Zack and Fasha also confront each other but solve nothing, with Fasha conflicted over her dwindling feelings for Zack and her growing attraction to Sham. <Wiki>

Bolos – Series (2008)
Title : Bolos
Date : 2.6.08
Time : 9.30PM
Channel : Astro Ria
Comment : Rancangan permainan baru bersama pengacara Zizan ini mencabar peserta membolosi dinding berlubang dengan apa jua cara dan gaya. Jangan sampai jatuh dan basah!……. pape pon, layankn~
Original gameshow dari jepun.
Review dari dua blog yang berkaitan ngan bolos:
Today at 1800hrs, Astro Ria will air another new show. This one’s also a game show and its called “Bolos”. I saw the ad (not teaser) about the show last night. It showed snippets of the actual game show and I can’t help but think that I’ve seen it all before.
Did a quick search in YouTube and what do you know, I was right.
The new game show that will be airing today at 1800hrs in Astro Ria is exactly the same as a very popular game show in Japan. The show is called “Tunnels no Minasan no Okage Deshit” in Japanese. I don’t know what it means in English though everybody is comfortable to just refer to it simply as “Human Tetris“.<aminashaari>
juz right now..
i had been watch 1 of astro’s new humor show..”boLos!!” at 8.30pm.
zizaN from Raja Lawak hosted it.
as i thought, it surely an enjoyable show.
plus,it full of laughs and jokes.
im shoutin alone while watchin them.<atoiaziz>
Jangan Lupa Lirik – Series (2008)
KUALA LUMPUR, 23 MEI 2008: Program terbaru Astro Ria, Jangan Lupa Lirik yang akan disiarkan bermula Ahad ini, 25 Mei, diyakini bakal menambat hati penonton, bukan sahaja kerana hos popularnya, Aznil Haji Nawawi, tetapi juga hadiah paling lumayan yang ditawarkan.
Walaupun gameshow tersebut diadaptasikan daripada program Don’t Forget The Lyrics yang dicipta di Amerika Syarikat, Astro sudah tentu lebih bijak mengadaptasikan bentuk program itu bagi memenuhi citrasa tempatan. Lihat saja Akademi Fantasia yang diadaptasikan daripada program import, La Academia.
Dalam program ini, peserta berpeluang memenanngi hadiah RM1 juta tetapi dengan syarat, mesti menyanyikan lagu dengan lirik yang tepat. Jangan Lupa Lirik akan disiarkan di Astro Ria pada setiap Sabtu dan Ahad, jam 9 malam
Aznil ketika ditemui murai.com.my berkata, Jangan Lupa Lirik adalah program yang menyeronokkan kerana ia tidak mempunyai pengkritik dan peserta boleh menyanyi sesuka hati.
“Kadang-kadang program ini perlu lucu dan serius. Saya bertanggungjawab untuk berusaha membawa kedua-dua elemen ini supaya Jangan Lupa Lirik akan menjadi sebuah gameshow yang mampu menambat hati penonton.
“Bukan saja peserta berpeluang untuk membawa pulang wang sebanyak mungkin, tetapi berpeluang menjadi seorang bintang,” kata Aznil sebelum rakaman episod pertama di Bandar Sri Damansara, semalam.<Murai>

Muhammad: The Last Prophet (2002)
Muhammad: The Last Prophet is an animated movie produced by Badr International and directed by Richard Rich. The movie was released in limited cinemas in the United States and the United Kingdom. The movie focuses on the early days of Islam and Muhammad.
As in The Message, an earlier live-action movie, Muhammad is not depicted . So whenever he is spoken to, or is in a scene, the character speaking to him faces the camera.
What is the film about?: The movie is set about 1400 years ago, during the early years of Islam, and relates the events that unfolded that led to the rise of a renewed religion in the Arabian desert. The film aims to introduce the story of Islam and its Prophet to new generations. Key events are covered to present the main thrust of Muhammad’s message and the struggles early Muslims endured to protect that message and bring lasting change to Meccan society.
it’s really a great movie, it of course doesn’t show the prophet PBUH. And that’s the way it should be. It gives a simple quick feed about the great prophet Muhammad – peace and blessing of God be upon him.
The animation is good, the music is really nice. The movie is almost similar to the movie “The Message”, but this movie is shorter and with less information.
I recommend this movie to be watched by everyone who wish to know as a start how Islam began. And also some of what Islam truly teach and commands.
I wish that there will be more movie like this to be accomplished.<IMDB>

Paling utama, Fasha mengharapkan, lakonannya dalam telefilem berkenaan akan membuka laluan baru buat dia melakar nama sebagai pelakon serba boleh.
“Watak ini paling mencabar yang pernah saya pegang. Memang susah tapi sekurang-kurangnya setelah selesai penggambaran melihatkan hasilnya saya berpuas hati.
“Sudah lama saya idamkan watak sebegini dan akhirnya impian saya tercapai,” kata aktres berusia 24 tahun itu lagi.<myselebriti>

The Lady Iron Chef (2007)
Year: 2007
Director: Billy Chung Siu-Hung
Producer: Wong Jing
Writer: Wong Jing
Cast: Charmaine Sheh Si-Man, Hacken Lee Hak-Ken, Yuen Qiu, Wong Jing, Liu Yang, Bonnie Wong Man-Wai, Cheung Tat-Ming, Yumiko Cheng Hei-Yi, Zuki Lee Si-Pui, Winnie Leung Man-Yi,
Review:
Your standard Wong Jing rip-off special that both amuses and annoys. For Wong Jing material, this is better than his recent efforts, but it’s still a far cry from his best work. Plus, if you’ve seen God of Cookery, Lady Iron Chef loses extra points.<loveHKfilm>
Wong Jing raids Hong Kong Cinema again for The Lady Iron Chef, a cooking-themed wackfest that manages to amuse when it’s not ripping off other movies. The problem: it rips off other movies far too often. TVB star Charmaine Sheh stars as Ceci, a beer girl who falls for restaurant empire heir S.K. To (Hacken Lee), whose name is supposed to be funny because it resembles SKII, one of Asia’s top cosmetics brands. That minor gag aside, S.K. lives beneath the iron rule of his overbearing mom (Bonnie Wong), who’s trying to get S.K. fixed up with Jade Rice (Liu Yang), a Mainland beauty who’s also an ace chef. When S.K. introduces Ceci as his chosen girlfriend, Mom retaliates by saying that her daughter-in-law must be a gourmet chef. Since Ceci simply can’t cook (her instant noodles are legendary for their lack of culinary quality), this condition presents a bit of a problem.

Genre: Musical, Horror
Production: LJ Film, Prime Entertainment
Distribution: Cinema Service
Language: Korean
Country: South Korea
It is late at night, just outside the humble home where a disillusioned young high school student lives alone with her frail grandmother. Despite the late hour and inclement weather the old lady is determined to go out, claiming that the neighborhood theater is about to play an old film the young girl has never heard of, one that grandma herself starred in back in the day. She wanders out into the night, never to return. The girl, now all alone, abandons her schooling to search for her missing grandmother, eventually taking a job in the box office of the theater that was to be grandma’s destination in the hope that if she simply waits there long enough the old woman will finally arrive for her phantom movie screening. But grandma’s movie isn’t the only phantom here, the theater itself playing host to a quartet of singing ghosts who appear late at night, eventually befriending the girl even as they torment the theater manager with memories he’d do anything to just leave behind. This is the Midnight Ballad For Ghost Theater.
