Ferrari has been collaborating and creating aspirational lifestyle products with various companies. Its latest collaboration with William Optics, has resulted in the creation of three new Ferrari themed products – The Ferrari Visio Binoculars, Ferrari Zenithstar Anniversary Telescope and the Ferrari Zenithstar Racing Telescope.While the two telescopes are for the serious hobbyists, the Binoculars are perfect for that field trip or a day at the Grand Prix. The 25mm binoculars come in a shade of fiery Ferrari Red. The Ferrari Visio binoculars provide up to 8x magnification and are made of composite carbon fiber (just like them Formula 1 Cars) to last for a lifetime. Continue reading ‘Ferrari Visio Binoculars’

I am not a big fan of the Hitman games franchise. My every effort at playing the games, ended in abject failure. I could never master the stealth concept of the game, as my efforts were akin to an Elephant trying to tiptoe on a squeaky floor. Still, I could sense the potential in the game. It was the perfect game to be made into a full length movie or a television series. Unfortunately the latest teaser trailer for the movie version of the game looks very disappointing. You have a baby faced Agent 47 (Timothy Olyphant) trying desperately to look menacing and cold. And a romantic angle just takes away the edginess of the Hitman persona. It would have been alright in a sequel, though. Just does not work.

These Ads are for a Brazilian brand of low-fat Yogurt. The ads are parodies of some of the most iconic and sensual images in American cinema. The chances of such ads ever appearing in the US are pretty ‘slim’. They would have invited thousands of angry calls and emails from viewers to the advertisers of the product. Obesity is a touchy subject in America, and a backlash would have prompted the manufacturers to withdraw the ads with an apology. I am sure that a lot of people would find the model(s) attractive, but Brazil, a nation which idealizes and worships super-thin bodies will obviously take the opposite view.What are your feelings on this issue ? Would it work in America ?

This is the age of the serious hero. The excesses of the 80′ and the 90′s (George Clooney as the Batman with a codpiece) are being washed away by these new brooding characters. Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) in The Bourne Identity movie heralded the death of the quintessential image of the suave spy. The movie reflected the harsh new realities of our time, by being far more serious and moody in tone. Such was its influence that, even the grand-pappy of all spy characters – James Bond, was far more grittier in his latest avatar. The creators of the Bourne Ultimatum movie, have now obviously decided to up the ante. The new posters for the movie are edgier and have already set the tone of the new movie. And when the movie tagline proclaims “Remember Everything. Forgive Nothing”, our anticipation knows no bounds.Check out the three new posters for the Bourne Ultimatum movie.
