Truly, THE BEST entertainer, artist, musician the world has ever known. A great loss not just for the entertainment industry, but also the rest of humanity whom souls he touched with his music, videos, life performances, originality and personality all these years. He’s in God’s good hands now.

1. It’s 2 1/2 hours long. Faster paced, more action packed, better plot and less headache than the first.
2. LaBeouf and the robots are funny as hell and Fox are twice as hotter than the first one.
3. Something about the vibe of the film that gave me the creeps esp. when the Decepticons are attacking.
4. Hands down, THE BEST special efx I’ve seen. The details on the robots are UN-BELIEVABLE.
5. More robots and new cars! Devastator is the SHIEEET!
6. The production scale is GARGANTUAN, literally. Definitely THE BIGGEST box office of the year.
7. More brutality and violence sans human’s flesh and blood. If the robots were humans, the film would be rated 18SG!
8. I almost wet my pants when Optimus ’super sized’ himself at the last part.
9. Bay and Spielberg did it again! Have to see it at least 9 more times 
10. I didn’t expect it to be THAT AWESOME, so I have to give it a full on 5 STARS!
Now, go watch it!

If you love The Office US series, you’re gonna love this one too!
Parks Promo #1 – The Front Lines
Parks and Recreation is a new mockumentary-style comedy series about the work and lives of the people in the Parks and Recreation Department in a fictional town called Pawnee in Indiana.
The series just finished their first season last month and stars SNL favorite comedian Amy Poehler as the deputy head named Leslie Knope, super funny man Aziz Ansari as Tom Haverford, Rashida Jones as nurse Ann Perkins and Nick Offerman as Ron Swanson the online Scrabble-playing department’s head.
Parks Promo #2 – Inspiration
The show shares the same format and style as The Office, but it’s about a government office whereas The Office is about a private paper company. Instead of dealing day-to-day securing paper sales, Parks deals with the work(or the lack of it) of turning an abandoned construction pit into a public park.
I couldn’t get enough of the show and Poehler’s character in Parks greatly resembles that of a female version of Steve Carell’s character in The Office. And Aziz Ansari’s fast-mouth-annoying-sarcastic jokes made the show even more hilarious! Rating: 4.5/5
Parks Promo #3 – Child’s Dream
Watch featured videos, deleted scenes and other funny stuff at Parks and Recreation website.

Man, I so wish they could come and do one here! ARGH! It would be awesome to see those cool stuff they make and maybe what local inventors, artists and geeks can do! In the mean time we could just settle for the full online HD episodes of MakeZine TV
