Kung Fu Dunk

So, last time we got Shaolin people playing soccer, this time we got Kungfu people playing basketball. Written by Takehiko Inoue (my favorite Slam Dunk manga author), Kung Fu Dunk is about Jay Chou playing basketball using Kungfu. That’s pretty much the summary of the movie. Expect it to be released February 2008. Untill then, enjoy these videos :)

Interesting + Addictive Game
While waiting for my upload finish, I decided to write about these two game that I found out from Lowyat. I’m warning you though, one of the game is very addictive even though you’ll get bored of it at the end since there’re not so many levels. The other one, well, it’s very funny and hard at the same time.
Crayon Physics
The game is very simple, all you have to is make sure the ball (I think it’s a ball) to move and touch the star. Use your imagination to draw box, stick, or whatever necessary to reach the goal. This game is even better if played on a tablet pc.
You can download it from the official website.
It is actually a prototype of the Deluxe Version which is being developed, here’s a video demo of the Deluxe Version. More info can be found on the official website.
Update: Info about the second game deleted
Death Note 3 – L Change the World
Apparently, there’s another movie made for Death Note. I’ve never like these movies much, maybe because of those actors don’t give me the same feeling as the anime. But since it’s Death Note, it’s definitely on my must watch list. So, as far as I understand, this movie is about L living his remaining life before he’s dead on the 23rd day.
Visit the official website.
For those who don’t know, previous movies are about the battle between two geniuses, one good and one evil. One of them somehow got hold of a book called Death Note which belongs to a Shinigami (Death God) which he can write any name and that person will be dead later. It’s pretty interesting and refreshing story. I just don’t like the actors, both of them doesn’t look genius enough especially Kira and L looks like a retard that is not a genius where he should act as a retard, but a total genius, XD. But that’s just me, who knows you’ll like them :)
