Resident Evil: Afterlife All Official

While we knew that there would be yet another Resident Evil movie, it wasn't official-official. Now it is.

Website ShockTillYouDrop report that the Screen Gems and Constantin Film have officially announced that production on Resident Evil: Afterlife has kicked off in Toronto, Canada.

The film will be shot entirely in 3D and directed by Paul W.S. Anderson. Afterlife stars Milla Jovovich as Alice, and Ali Larter and Spencer Locke will reprise their roles as Claire Redfield and K-Mart from the previous films. Actor Wentworth Miller is joining the cast as Claire's brother, Chris Redfield. Shawn Roberts will play Wesker.

"Alice's battle with The Umbrella Corporation isn't finished," says director Anderson. "Last time we saw Alice, she let them know she was coming after them. It's time to settle the score." Dun-dun-dunnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

How to be a Domestic Goddess... and have dinner with one

Since I'm single and usually cook for myself at times I always buy the ingredients only when I want to cook and then eat them. I don't usually have a cupboard of goodies or a pantry to keep my foodies as I usually finish them up after 2-3 hours after buying them. I know it sounds hefty but I only eat for myself and sometimes a couple of close friends and they don't mind taking some extra time in the supermarket to buy the stuff that I need.

Usually in the supermarket I tend myself to focus on the things I need and avoid shilly-shallying around the aisles and buying stuff I might not eat and leave it on the table untouched and realize they have surpassed their expiration, and that is a waste of money. With that I get the stuff that I think is easy to prepare and easy to finish yet provided the warmth and comfort of eating and well in the unwinding part of the day you do not want to slave in the kitchen. This dinner made for one if you're greedy or two if you're not feeling selfish.

What I usually buy:

2 Pork chops, approximately 450 grams
Grainy mustard, or just the regular mustard
Cider, dryish taste
All purpose cream

For the health conscious cut off the fat or the rind and put them in a freezer bag and bash them. I do not harbor any ill will on these chops, the reason why I bash them is to make them thinner so they cook quicker. Fry them with some garlic-infused oil and give them five minutes a side or until you feel that they are cooked. Now, the aforementioned sauce. Keep the leftover juices that was on the frying pan that cooked the pork chops, de-glaze the pan with the cider allowing those meaty juices to meld with the cider. Add in the grainy mustard as I really like the texture it give, go ahead and use regular mustard the graininess is all for preference and taste. Add in the cream and mix it altogether, in mere moments the sauce is ready and simply decant the sauce onto the pork chops as the creaminess of the sauce compliments the tender meat. Throw in some steamed rice or some potatoes. Delish!

How to be a Domestic Goddess... and emanate instant comfort

Sometimes it is hard to emanate comfort for some people let alone myself when in dire stress levels and turn ourselves into cracked-up state that would perhaps lead us to a nervous breakdown. Perhaps what I learned from my Mom is that the comfort of food doesn't mean you have to slave all day in the kitchen for a quick fix. All it takes is a quick and steady mind and a handful of standby ingredients and just throw all together and voila! Instant calmer.
 
I always believed ice cream is the universal instant calmer for the senses. I particularly hummed to ice cream providing its sub-zero calmness and the addition of the smooth concoction of peanut butter and chocolate is partnership made in heaven. Simple to make, mix and enjoy. Now that's instant confort, because when you want comfort is has to be fast.
 
Having chocolate peanut butter fudge sundae is the stuff of dreams, and when you serve this to your friends they will kneelingly weep with gratitude.
 
What you'll need:
175ml double cream or multipurpose cream
100g milk chocolate, chopped
100g smooth peanut butter (Skippy for preference)
3 x 15ml tablespoons golden syrup
ice cream for your choice; chocolate vanilla and toffee works best. Häagen-Dazs anyone?
4 x 15ml tablespoons salted peanuts, roughly chopped or left whole to taste
Serving Size : Serves 4 very lucky people
 
Mix the milk chocolate, cream, golden syrup and peanut butter altogether in a saucepan on medium heat until melted. Scoop out your ice cream of your choice into a bowl or some old school sundae glasses (which I still have) and simlply decant the fudgey sauce and top in some salted peanuts if you like. Totally orgasmic and serves 4 lucky people.

Sydney Sky Turns RED!!!!

kate2-600x400.jpg

Your eyes are not deceiving you! If you don't believe us, head to Twitter and see the hundreds of people talking about it!

People in Sydeny, Austraila woke this morning to see a deep reddish haze unlike anything they have ever seen before. And weather experts are amazed as well!

But how can this be?!

Bureau of Meteorology senior forecaster Jane Golding says that the color comes from an exorbitant amount of dust that has collected in the area, saying:

"The reason for the dust is we had some really strong winds in the inland areas of NSW and in South Australia for a sustained period yesterday. That's lifted a whole lot of dust off the ground because it's quite dry out there, many of those areas are still drought affected…I've not seen anything like this before."

She also pointed out that the reddish haze is expected to fade as the sun gets higher in the sky, changing from "a crimson red to orange by about 7am."

A severe weather warning has gone out across the city, as the dust has made visibility terrible and the winds carrying this reddish dust are as high as 60km/h and expected to get worse!!!

This is just crazy! It looks like the "end of days" over there!!!

Silent Hill 2 Movie now official

Writer Roger Avary and producer Samuel Hadida are returning to Silent Hill for Silent Hill 2. The two worked together on the 2006 prequel, which grossed nearly $100 million worldwide.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that filming will begin next year after Hadida and his studio Davis Films finishes Resident Evil: Afterlife with Milla Jovovich.

Earlier this Spring, actor Radha Mitchell — who starred in the first film — stated that the first film's director Christophe Gans most likely wasn't attached to the sequel. "A shame because he's a nutter but he's so passionate about the game," says Mitchell. "I think he should do it if they do it again."

Samuel Hadida has produced the Resident Evil films as well as True Romance. Avary, who won an Oscar with Quentin Tarantino for the Pulp Fiction screenplay, is also working on the film version of Return to Castle Wolfenstein for Hadida's production company.

In January 2008, Avary was involved in a car accident which saw his wife hospitalized and his friend, 34-year-old Andreas Zini, killed. The director entered his plea in a Ventura, California court in late August. He will be sentenced on September 29 and is currently free on bail. And next year, Silent Hill 2 will begin filming.

Your First Look!

smurfsscan.jpg

Another tragic disappointment for children of the 80s or a happy reinvention for the children of today?

We're not sure, but this is the first look at the new, CGI stylin' Smurf from their new movie being released next year.

What do U think?

Holy Hell! A Pole-Dancing Doll???

Miley Cyrus: what have you started?!?!

We have found something even more horrifying than the breast feeding baby-doll.

A Pole-Dancing Doll!!!

The plaything comes with a doll and attachable pole and the box insists the product is "Interesting", can go "up and down" as well as "round and round". It even plays music! (Because what is a stripper without a tune to dance to?!)

Though the doll in the picture is fully clothed, we're sure it won't stay that way for long. Like the box also says, every stripper needs "style."

And by the way, dollar bills, mini beer bottles, and application for computer school is sold separately.

If your kids ask for this doll this holiday season, we recommend reform school IMMEDIATELY!

What is the world coming to?!?

What do U think of this doll?
