Nuffnang Premiere Screening – Pee Mak

Thailand and their horror, yes, this deadly duo usually always managed to be the main attraction for Asian audiences, no matter if it is then lately some of them ended badly. This May, Pee Mak fever will come gripping the entire Kingdom of Nuffnang! (Okay, purely exaggeration) But yea, this will definitely whet your appetite for that age old Thai genre; the ghost comedy!

Summary:
During the beginning of the Rattanakosin Dynasty, many Thai men were drafted to serve in the war. Pee Mak was no exception and had to leave his pregnant wife to join the flight. While at war, he met, saved and formed a close bond with four fellow soldiers. Once the war was over, Mak invited his four best friends to visit his hometown called Phra Khanong. when they arrived to the town, Mak introduced them to his beautiful wife Nak and Dang his newborn baby boy. Pee Mak’s four friends decided to stay in Phra Khanong for a while and moved into the old house opposite to Mak’s house. Despite having met Nak and Dang, a village rumour was going around that Nak had died giving birth to her stillborn baby, Dang…

The film was written by 3 men, the director who is responsible for the film Shutter and Phobia, actor ‘Ter’ Chantavit Dhanasevi, and ‘Aem’ Nontra Kumwong. It was revised several times to make it fresh and different from previous versions. Pee Mak is not only funny but with great relish invites audiences to play a guessing who’s actually a ghost.

As a horror comedy, arguably Pee Mak successfully carry out their duties properly. Filled with stupidity, foolishness plot and stale twist, the funny thing is still effective to provide an entertaining dish and a little scary dessert.

Everyone knows the story by heart. Set 100 or so years ago, long before the rustic river village of Phra Khanong became part of Bangkok and was paved over with condos, the young man Mak goes off to war, leaving behind his pregnant wife Nak. While Mak battles for his life in the trenches against whomever it was the Siamese were fighting back then, Nak struggles to give birth but both she and her baby die. However, the love between Mak and Nak is so strong, her spirit survives. When Mak returns home, he doesn’t see that anything is wrong even though the villagers are all in hiding, cowering in fear of the powerful ghost.

Nuffnang Premiere Screening – Fast & Furious 6

Get ready to feel all tingly, Fast & Furious fans. The final trailer for the series’ upcoming sixth installment is bigger and badder than any that have come before, with a healthy dose of Superman-level gravity-defying thrown in for good measure. Yes folks, in this installment Vin Diesel can fly. And also Tyrese Gibson. Hey, it could happen.

I’d say we need to fasten our seat belts in anticipation of the arrival of Justin Lin’s ultra high-speed blockbuster but let’s face it, the way these guys drive that seat belt would do little to protect us.

Well, let’s assemble together and be prepared for the latest Fast and the Furious franchise which is sure to offer some thrills and of course some exciting car chases!

Summary:
Since Dom and Brian’s Rio heist toppled a kingpin’s empire and left their crew with $100 million, our heroes have scattered across the globe. But their inability to return home and living forever on the lam have left their lives incomplete.

Meanwhile, Hobbs has been tracking an organization of lethally skilled mercenary drivers across 12 countries, whose mastermind is aided by a ruthless second-in-command revealed to be the love Dom thought was dead, Letty. The only way to stop the criminal outfit is to outmatch them at street level, so Hobbs asks Dom to assemble his elite team in London. Payment? Full pardons for all of them so they can return home and make their families whole again.

Check out car racing, street chasing, throw down fighting clips from Justin Lin’s latest (and perhaps, last) road movie Fast and Furious 6. Okay, so it’s not really a “road movie”, but it does have roads, and it is a movie, so technically it’s kinda a road movie. Plus it’s got tanks and fistfights in London subway platforms!

Now start your engines folks and join us at the Nuffnang Premiere Screening of Fast & Furious 6! Thanks to United International Pictures (UIP), we are giving away 40 pairs of licences to race to the screening happening on:

Date: 21 May 2013 (Tuesday)
Time: 9.15pm
Venue: TGV, 1 Utama

To score ONE (1) pair of exclusive tickets, all you need to do is:-

1. Leave a comment below and tell us “Between these two rides (Jaguar E-Type and Chevrolet Camaro SS), which sweet ride would you choose to race and why?

2. The 40 most interesting comments will win the premiere screening passes!
3. IMPORTANT: Be sure to include your Blog URL and NuffnangX URL in your comment.
4. Deadline to submit your entry is 12.00pm, 15 May 2013 (Wednesday).

The trailer below gives a sneak peek into the high velocity drama fans can expect this May where this installment brings Letty Ortiz back — along with explosive action, fighting sequences and really, really fast cars!

So hurry now Nuffnangers, start revving your engines!

Be a Champ with Milo

We’ve always been told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and this principle has been hardwired into our daily routine since the earliest days of our lives.

Yes, that truly was the breakfast for Champions!

If you think MILO only lives in your childhood memories, then you’ve never been more wrong! Caring for your breakfast needs regardless of your age, MILO is back with the “MILO Breakfast Movement”!
