noreply@blogger.com (Real Passion) — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 04:23:00 +0000

10. Porsche Carrera GT: 205 mph, 0-60 in 3.9 secs. Aluminum, 68 Degree, Water Cooled V10 Engine with 612 hp, base price is $440,000. The most powerful and most expensive Porsche nearly made the list as #10.

9. Lamborghini Murcielago LP640: 211 mph, 0-60 in 3.3 secs. V12 Engine with 640 hp, base price is $430,000. Nice piece of art, the design is very round and smooth.

8. Pagani Zonda F: 215 mph, 0-60 in 3.5 secs. Mercedes Benz M180 V12 Engine with 650 hp, base price is $667,321. With a V12 motor, this baby can do much better.

7. Jaguar XJ220: 217 mph, 0-60 in 3.8 secs. Twin Turbo V6 Engine with 542 hp, base price was $650,000. Made in 1992, this car still got what it takes to make the list.

6. Ferrari Enzo: 217 mph, 0-60 in 3.4 secs. F140 Aluminum V12 Engine with 660 hp, base price is $670,000. Only 399 ever produced, the price goes up every time someone crashes.

5. McLaren F1: 240 mph, 0-60 in 3.2 secs. BMW S70/2 60 Degree V12 Engine with 627 hp, base price is $970,000. Check out the doors, they looks like bat wings, maybe Batman need to order one and paints it black.

4. Koenigsegg CCX: 245 mph, 0-60 in 3.2 secs. 90 Degree V8 Engine 806 hp, base price is $545,568. Made in Sweden, it is aiming hard to be the fastest car in the world, but it has a long way to go to surpass the Bugatti and the Ultimate Aero.

3. Saleen S7 Twin-Turbo: 248 mph, 0-60 in 3.2 secs. Twin Turbo All Aluminum V8 Engine with 750 hp, base price is $555,000. Smooth and bad-ass, will make you want to show it off non-stop.

2. SSC Ultimate Aero: 257 mph, 0-60 in 2.7 secs. Twin-Turbo V8 Engine with 1183 hp, base price is $654,400. Tested in March 2007 by Guinness World Records, The SSC Ultimate Aero was the fastest car in the world from March 2007 to July 2010 until recently it fell behind the Bugatti Veyron to take the #2 spot.

1. Bugatti Veyron: 267 mph, 0-60 in 2.5 secs. Aluminum, Narrow Angle 8 Liter W16 Engine with 1200 hp, base price is $1,700,000. Tested again on July 10, 2010 with the new 2010 Super Sport Version, the Bugatti Veyron once again claimed its title as the fastest car in the world at 267 mph.

Dangerously Addictive top 10 Games

noreply@blogger.com (Real Passion) — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 17:27:00 +0000

1. Halo

Obsession with this galactic first-person shooter is a serious condition amongst the young people of the United States. While at first the game brought people together in groups to play against one another, it has ultimately forged a society of predominately young males (along with games like Medal of Honor or Call of Duty) who live behind a flat screen television and communicate to other gamers via a headset.

2. Call of Duty

Call of Duty, is a first-person “shooter” (a game in which the gun and the hands are the only visible parts of your character) Xbox game depicting the lives (and deaths) of American and British special forces soldiers as they combat a worldwide network of terrorist regimes who threaten to overthrow the United States of America and its allies.

3. Starcraft

Starcraft is the bane of the online strategy gaming world. It is strikingly similar to Warcraft. The setting of the Starcraft strategy game is composed of an unrealistic intergalactic array of atmospheres and space stations set up specifically for unique battle strategy implementation. Players war against one another online by building armies in real time, massing attacking, and choosing a “race” of species that best fits their fighting style and personality.

4. World of Warcraft

The World of Warcraft series, aptly named because of its capability to totally immerse gamers into an alternative reality, has shot down countless young men who would have otherwise been experiencing the thrilling heights of their late-teens and early-20s sexual prime.

5. Magic, The Gathering

It’s Friday night and just down the street at the local gamer store a crew of men and women (mostly men) between the ages of 12 and 65 are assembled at ping pong tables which have been covered by animated playing cards depicting fantastic fictional characters and beasts. The men slap the cards on the table, talk, jeer, laugh, and occasionally raise their voices at one another.

6. Curling

Curling did not become widely popular until recent decades. While it is not typical of the games on this list, it has made the countdown on the basis of its absurdly arranged rule system and abnormal appearance. Players in half-slick-half-sticky shoes converge on an ice rink to push giant metallic discs toward a two-dimensional bulls eye painted at the far end of the ice.

7. Texas Hold ‘Em

If you’re between the ages of 11 and 110, odds are you’ve heard of, or participated in, a game of poker. Odds are that the game was 5-Card Draw or 7-Card Stud. However, if you’ve played at a contemporary poker table in the US within the past 15 years, the chances that you’ve participated in a game of Texas hold ‘em are also extremely high.

8. Beer Pong

We have seen the tables in the hallways of frat houses nationwide. We have seen the beer-stained floors and the smashed Dixie cups. We have heard the urban legends about oral herpes and AIDS being spread from cracked lips or cut fingers pulling ping pong balls out of cups of beer. The game of beer pong is a somewhat underground symbol of the lifestyle of college students, the freedom to enjoy their selves in a garage or behind closed doors; beer pong is a monument to the young person’s ability to maintain athletic prowess even amidst the heavy consumption of alcohol.

9. Pogs

It was Easter in the early 90s and the White House was, as usual, hosting their annual Easter Egg Roll. The theme that year (the idea that the nation’s marketing experts assumed could turn the largest profit) was Pogs. Pogs are small, cardboard discs, which probably cost nothing to make. Children across the nation have become enamored by the game, which involves stacking the discs an inch high and smashing the stack with a larger Pog (made of plastic, more expensive) which will then cause the stack of cardboard Pogs to flip. Depending on how the Pogs flip, one person will win and the other will lose. The winner will take the Pogs on, say, heads, and the loser will take the Pogs on tails.

10. Chess

Should you laugh when someone tells you that they are the President of the Chess Club? Probably not to their face. The truth is that the obsession with chess, as with many other games, is not always a bad thing. Chess has been linked in several studies to improve mental health and sharpness in individuals who play it and learn it on a healthy and active level.

Top 10 Hot & Sexy Victoria's Secret Model

noreply@blogger.com (Real Passion) — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 20:45:00 +0000

10. MOLLY SIMS

Sims has appeared in SI’s swimsuit issue numerous times, hosted MTV’s House of Style in 2006, and was the face of Old Navy for their “You gotta get this look!” campaign. She also starred in the NBC show Las Vegas.

9. Claudia Schiffer

One of the most famous models ever, Schiffer has appeared on over 500 magazine covers and has pitched a wide variety of products, from Pepsi to Chanel.

8. Angie Everhart

Angie Everhart started life humbly, graduating from Firestone High School in Akron, Ohio where she was a cheerleader and school mascot before being discovered by a local modeling agency. Everhard has appeared in numerous films and reality television shows and has also dated quite a few famous personalities including Howard Stern and Joe Pesci.

7. Marisa Miller

Miller took home the #1 slot on Maxim’s Hot 100 this past year, but she’s best known for her work in SI’s swimsuit issues as well as her Victoria’s Secret campaigns. Quite possibly the most famous working model in the world right now.

6. Bar Refaeli

Refaeli is an Israeli model, probably better known for dating Leonardo DiCaprio. She caused some controversy recently when it came out that she evaded compulsory military service in Israel, saying “Why is it good to die for our country? What, isn’t it better to live in New York?”.

5. Adriana Lima

A Victoria’s Secret angel since 2000, Lima is also well known for being a spokeswoman for Maybelline, as well as her numerous magazine cover appearances.

4. Alessandra Ambrosio

Tyra Banks has anointed Ambrosio “The future of the modeling world” and it’s not too tough to see why. Actually had her ears pinned back when she was 11 years old, and has since sworn off plastic surgery after having numerous complications. Has made cameos on Entourage as well as the film Casino Royale.

3. Gisele Bundchen

The inspiration for this list, Bundchen has been hot tabloid fodder ever since she started dating Tom Brady. She’s the face of more than 20 brands internationally and is supposedly worth over $150 million. Actually dated Leonardo DiCaprio before hooking up with Tom Brady, which means DiCaprio might be the luckiest bastard on the face of the planet considering he landed Bar Refaeli following Gisele.

2. Laetitia Casta

Easily one of the most iconic faces in the history of Victoria’s Secret. Casta has been on the cover of more than 100 magazines and has been featured in Guess, Tommy Hilfiger, and XOXO campaigns.

1. Heidi Klum

A lot of debate went into this ranking, but when the dust settled we had to name Heidi Klum the hottest Victoria’s Secret model of all time. In all fairness however, any of the top seven would have fit, and I’m sure arguments could be made for many of the other girls in this list. In the end though, it has to be Klum. She’s managed to stay at peak hotness for something like fifteen years now, and for that alone she deserves the top spot.

Top 10 Young Famous Writers Who Died Young

noreply@blogger.com (Real Passion) — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 23:10:00 +0000

Even though these writers died too young, it cannot be ignored that they were great in their field. They all died before their 40th birthday and left behind a remarkable legacy.

1. Stephen Crane

Stephen Crane was multi-talented and tried his hand at writing short-stories, novels and poetry. He wrote books like The Red Badge of Courage and Maggie: A Girl of the Streets. Crane dropped out of college and did odd jobs in order to support his literary career. He died at age 29.

2. Anne Brontë

This author wrote Agnes Grey and her siblings were Charlotte and Emily Bronte. She worked with her sisters briefly and took up different jobs from 1839 through 1845. Anne contracted tuberculosis in 1848 and died at age 29.

3. Denton Welch

Denton Welch was both a novelist and a painter who wrote In Youth Is Pleasure and Maiden Voyage in 1944 an 1943 respectively. He was seriously injured in 1935 after which he found it difficult to function normally. However, he continued writing and painting till he died at age 33.

4. Raymond Radiguet

Raymond Radiguet was a poet and novelist who wrote an extraordinary book called Le Diable au corps at 17. He became Jean Cocteau’s protégé soon after. Unfortunately, the young boy got addicted to alcohol and died of typhoid at age 20.

5. John Kennedy Toole

Toole is remembered for A Confederacy of Dunces which remained unpublished while he was alive. After he committed suicide, his mother took the manuscript to Walker Percy who sent it to a publishing house almost instantly. He won the Pulitzer Prize in 1981- 12 years after his death.

6. Thomas Chatterton

Chatterton revived the “Gothic” style of writing and was the youngest at the time to do so. He had a hard childhood but soon realized his love for writing and engrossed himself in his intellect. He refused to eat after a particular point in his life and died in 1770 at age 17.

7. Alain-Fournier

Alain Fournier wrote Le Grand Meaulnes in 1913 which went on to become a modern classic. This was the only book he could manage to complete and it is laced with nostalgia that has an otherworldly quality to it. The plot is set against a rural background and makes it clear that the writer longed to live in a different kind of world. He died at age 27.

8. Sylvia Plath

Sylvia Plath is remembered for her extraordinary poetry which was laced with dark elements such as self-destruction, alienation and death. She won a number of contests and her poems were published in several magazines. Even though Plath was extremely successful, she was relentlessly depressed and killed herself by sticking her head in an oven at age 30.

9. Emily Brontë

Emily Bronte is known for her single novel Wuthering Heights which was published in 1847. She was definitely the most talented in the family even though her life is quite mysterious. Her existence was spiritual in nature and she preferred to stay by herself almost all the time. She died when she was 30 years old of tuberculosis.

10. Arthur Rimbaud

Arthur Rimbaud had won a number of prizes by the time he turned 15. He became involved with a married woman at a very young age and the two abused drugs together. This brilliant writer stopped writing at 21 and moved to Africa soon after. He died at 37 after his knees gave out.

Top 10 Social Bookmarking Sites for All Time

noreply@blogger.com (Real Passion) — Sat, 05 Jun 2010 09:43:00 +0000

There are a lot of new sites and marketing efforts these days. Many of these sites are on-line and have just came about in the last two to three years. However, a few of these sites are gaining popularity much faster than others, yet some of the sites have more impact than others. The following are our top 10 social marketing sites on the web today, and what to know about social marketing about how they perform. They are not in any particular order.

Top 10 Social Marketing Sites:

1. Facebook – Not the biggest yet, but just about there. The audience is a little more mature and there are limitations to the customization, but the site is easy to use and growing every day.

2. Myspace - Still the largest social site on the web, but it quickly losing ground to Facebook. The site has a younger audience and allows for more customization, but it’s harder to find things because content is all over the place.

3. Twitter – This is by far the fastest growing social site on the web. There is limited things you can do, but the audience is growing and there are lots of new opportunities to gain more expsoure on it.

4. Digg - This is a great site and one that has a big audience, but also has some good SEO value. A good Digg page can rank really high on the search engines and push a lot of traffic.

5. Mixx- This social site has many features in it and combines services like that of Digg, Twitter, and Facebook all into one site. It has a good audience and is growing so the traffic is good and there is someSEO value on the main engines just like Digg.

6. Youtube – This is one of the biggest social sites on the web, but is mostly for video. However, there is a social aspect to the site and it does have someSEO value on it. Make a video, get traffic and a back-link so I think its worth mentioning here.

7. Delicious – This site doesn’t have as much direct traffic value, but it’s good for SEO and a lot of ranking services will use this site as a benchmark, so it’s worth being on there.

8. Yahoo Buzz - This is Yahoo’s attempt at Digg and it’s a really good site with lots of SEO value on it. The site gets good traffic and can push some hits back to the source site so it’s good to submit here as well.

9. Vox - This is another hybrid site that tries to combine multiple social services. The site has a good audience but not as active as some other sites. There isn’t much SEO on the links but there are some so it’s a good site to be apart of.

10. Ning - Create a social community. This site has some SEO value but is more for self social creation and makes it easy to make a custom social site. Make a community, submit content, get someSEO value of it.

Top 10 Highest Paid Footballers : 2010 World Cup

noreply@blogger.com (Real Passion) — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 18:03:00 +0000

Money talks, as the old saying goes. Not literally, of course (not unless you're using that money to pay for something untoward), but figuratively — especially when it comes to influencing what other people may or may not do for it.

That is certainly true in football, where — like it or not — money seems to be the universally accepted barometer of success. You're getting paid well? You're a great player. And even if you're not actually a great player, well, at least you are still getting paid well.

1. Lionel Messi
Barcelona & Argentina
£29.6m

Like Danny Devito in the early 90s, Messi may be small but he’s still going to cost you a lot of money. With David Beckham out injured, the stage was left clear for young Leo to be the highest-paid player on show in South Africa — and not just the best. The Ballon d’Or winner has recently signed a mammoth contract extension at Barca, reportedly pushing his weekly pay beyond the £200,000pw mark, and he is heavily sought after when it comes to endorsing anything from boots (Adidas) to video games (Pro Evo). Guapa.

2. Cristiano Ronaldo
Real Madrid & Portugal
£27m

Perma-tans need constant re-application, and you’d be amazing how quickly package-hugging briefs wear out. Fortunately for ‘CR9’, he earns more than enough from his day job, let alone his endorsements, to keep himself in both — and even has money left over to apply copious amounts of wet-look hair gel. Earning near £200,000-a-week before his Nike-led sponsorship deals, his virtually limitless marketing potential will only see his value grow over the coming years. Watch out, David Beckham.

3. Kaka
Real Madrid & Brazil
£16.9m

He may belong to Jesus, but Kaka’s money is all his own — except, that is, when he donates huge chunks of it to deserving causes. The Brazilian has never opted to fully capitalise on his marketing potential, but earns great money for doing the thing he does best — playing football. The world's most expensive player for almost a week, he is still firmly among its highest paid.

4. Thierry Henry
Barcelona & France
£16.1m

Renault Clio adverts evidently pay very well these days. Henry is reportedly on his last legs at Camp Nou (almost literally), with his lucrative contract set to be offloaded in the summer, and will likely be consigned to a bench role in South Africa. But for now, his bank account still screams Va Va Voom. US of A, here he comes.

5. Carlos Tevez
Manchester City & Argentina
£13.8m

Tall, dark, handsome — unfortunately Tevez only ticks one of those boxes. But what he lacks on paper he makes up for, well, in paper. Not the first recipient of City’s recently-found largesse, he has certainly been the biggest benefactor to date. He may be looked down on when his international team-mates discuss the Champions League over the next few weeks, but he’ll be one of the clear king-pins when it comes to the poker games.

6. Frank Lampard
Chelsea & England
£12.8m

At the ripe old age of 32, Lampard is still pulling in the big bucks — with little sign of slowing down any time soon. Pepsi and Adidas give him some walking-around money, but it is on the pitch he really earns his corn. Trophies on his shelf and a trophy girlfriend on his arm (except, in a twist on the normal scenario, one with a very successful and respectable career of her own) you could say the East End lad has done good.

7. Samuel Eto’o
Inter & Cameroon
£12.4m

Of all the people laughing at Zlatan Ibrahimovic this summer, Eto’o might be laughing the loudest — and longest. He isn’t quite as well paid as the Swede with whom he swapped clubs last summer, but he has a Champions League title and World Cup appearance to celebrate a year later. Ibra has neither.

8. John Terry
Chelsea & England
£10m

JT’s many endorsements help him to this list, but they’ve dried up pretty quickly after his recent well-documented ... transgressions. But he still picks up a hefty wage packet at the end of every week from the Blues (reportedly around £180,000), a sum increased only last summer as a reward for seriously entertaining Manchester City’s oil wealth. Football truly is a generous game.

9. Steven Gerrard
Liverpool & England
£9m

Loyalty has its rewards, and Gerrard has earned handsomely through remaining faithful to his boyhood club. Endorsements built on that clean-cut image boost his overall earnings — that night-club brawl seems to be long forgotten — but will more failure with England in the summer see him fancy a (lucrative) summer move to Real Madrid?

10. Xavi
Barcelona & Spain
£8.5m per annum

The low-key, high-class midfield maestro earns a solid basic wage in the region of £6.5m per year (£125,000pw), topped up with the obligatory collection of endorsements and bonuses. Which, if you play for Barcelona, you tend to get a lot of. But rumours that he is fined for every misplaced pass he makes, encouraging his high completion rate, are apparently untrue.

10. T-Mobile Sidekick 2008
Bottom Line: A slimmer, sexier take on the Sidekick, but it's so narrowly-focused that it's only meant for kids.

Top 10 Batsman in Cricket History

noreply@blogger.com (Real Passion) — Wed, 12 May 2010 19:45:00 +0000

Cricket is a very popular game to nearly 2 billion people in the world. Cricket has now turned into a billion dollar sports industry. This beautiful game has produced some great batsmen over the years. I have made a list of the ten of the greatest batsmen in the world. Well, it is a very tough thing to do. For doing this, I had to leave so many other great crickets. Still, I think that this list will satisfy most of the readers.

1. Sir Don Bradman (AUS) - Fitting that the greatest batsman of all time belongs to the greatest cricketing nation. "The Don" had a remarkable career and, like Lara, had a tragic end to it. With an unprecedented batting average of 99.94, had he just got a four in his last innings, he would have made it 100. Unfortunately he get bowled for a duck, a terrible end to the greatest career. To put that batting average in perspective, second place on this list Brian Lara's Test match average was 52.88. The fourth member of this list to be included in the top five of Wisden Cricketers of the Century.

2. Brian Lara (WIN) - The greatest run scorer in Test match history, with an unparallelled 11,953 runs, Brian Lara is a personal favourite of mine, as is Sachin Tendulkar. His 501 not out for Warwickshire against Durham and his 400 not out for West Indies against England are stuff of legend, and remain unbeaten records and perhaps unbeatable records. His retirement game didn't do justice to his career, being run out on just 18, but throughout his career he wowed crowds around the world.

3. Sachin Tendulkar (IND) - "The Little Master" has a claim to be up in at least second in this list, with many regarding him to be the best of all time. If this list was exclusively for ODI batsmen, he would probably be in number one. A true legend of the game already, Tendulkar is looked upon with almost god-like status in India. He is only one of three men to score over 11,000 Test match runs.

4. Sir Viv Richards (WIN) - Despite not really being classed as an all-rounder, Richards could deliver a ball as well as knocking it out of the park. The third man on this list so far to be named as one of the five Wisden Cricketers of the Century, his swagger when at the crease has become legendary. Often chewing gum and opting to where a cap instead of a helmet, Richards seemed to banish some of the best bowlers of his generation without much effort.

5. Sir Garfield Sobers (WIN) - Widely regarded as the greatest all-rounder the game has ever seen, Sobers became the first ever player to hit six sixes in an over. Another one voted as one of the five Wisden Cricketers of the Century, it was easy to see why he was regarded so highly. His records of over 8,000 Test match runs as well as 235 Test match wickets, coupled with over 28,000 First Class runs and over 1,000 First Class wickets, show what a great all-rounder he was.

6. Allan Border (AUS) - Former captain of the mighty Australia, Border still holds the record for amount of consecutive Test appearances (153). He, again held numerous World Records at the time of his retirement. One of which was the most Test runs ever, with 11,174, a record since passed by number two on this list.

7. Sir Jack Hobbs (ENG) - Jack Hobbs was often referred to as "The Master", and it's easy to see why. Widely regarded as the greatest opening batsmen of all time, he was voted as one of the five Wisden Cricketers of the Century. Playing in the early 1900s, Hobbs didn't get a huge amount of Test runs, but was still seen as a formidable force. His records in First Class cricket still remain, where he scored over 60,000 runs, and took 108 wickets, a phenomenal record.

8. Sunil Gavaskar (IND) - Gavaskar is one of the greatest opening batsmen in cricket history. Although he played during a time when the Indian team weren't hugely successful, especially when he was captain, he stood out as a great batter. Another one of the handful to have achieved over 10,000 Test runs.

9. Ricky Ponting (AUS) - The captain of the dominate force in world cricket, Ricky Ponting has been consistently putting in match winning performances for the Aussies, helping them to Ashes victories and a World Cup victory, and that's just on the Test scene. He holds numerous records and is one of a handful of people to reach over 10,000 Test match runs.

10. W.G. Grace (ENG) - Playing in the 1800s, William Gilbert Grace was the first star of cricket, putting it on the map. His displays are stuff of legend, and, although his average seems worse than others, that may be because he played well into his fifties in a 44 year career. Immediately distinguishable by his bushy beard, he played in an era without the high tech bats and the protective gear in use today. He's the type of player we may never see again in the game.

Top 10 Batsman in Cricket History

Top 10 Bowlers in Cricket History

noreply@blogger.com (Real Passion) — Sat, 08 May 2010 15:40:00 +0000

It has been said that a good bowler can single-handedly make his entire team win. There have been a number of excellent bowlers in cricket history, the following are the top 10s:

1. Glenn McGrath-Australia

Possibly the best bowler in cricket history, Glenn McGrath was persistently accurate when it came to taking wickets. He played for 14 years and has taken over 550 wickets. He is undoubtedly deserving of the number one spot in this list.

2. Courtney Walsh-West Indies

Walsh bowled his way till the top in this field and made it look so easy. His success is further consolidated by the fact that he was at the top for 17 years. This legend has taken over 500 Test wickets which was a record at one point.

3. Wasim Akram- Pakistan

This left-handed bowler is considered to be among the fastest in the field. His is fondly referred to as the Sultan of Swing and has taken over 350 Test wickets. Akram has also recorded two hat-tricks in both ODI and Test cricket.

4. Kapil Dev- India

Kapil Dev was definitely the best in the game during his time and is said to be an all-rounder. He gave his all no matter what the stakes were and he would deserve a mention even if he was terrible with the bat. However, both his batting and bowling were exceptional and he has taken over 430 Test wickets during his career. Last but not the least; he was also given the title of the “Cricketer of the last century”.

5. Allan Donald

Since his nickname was “White Lightening”, it goes without saying that he is among the top 10 bowlers in cricket history. Since South Africa was excluded from cricket, Donald gave his all at the age of 26 when he finally got his chance. His excellence in the field was proven when he took over 300 wickets.

6. Sir Richard Hadlee

New Zealand’s first few years in cricket were undoubtedly tough. However, Sir Richard Hadlee played the game well even during these years. At 22 he had taken over 430 wickets. It has been said that he could have won a game single-handedly any day.

7. Jeff Thompson

Along with Dennis Lillee, his team-mate, Jeff Thompson is said to have ‘terrorized’ the opposing team’s batsmen when it was his chance to bowl. Because of injuries, he could not take more than 200 wickets. However, he is still among the best and a few have been able to match his speed and precision.

8. Dennis Lillee

This bowler had a short temper and was fearsome when it came to bowling, to say the least. During the 1980’s, he set a record by taking over 350 test wickets and along with an average of 23.92, he was definitely among the best. Batsmen that were faced with Lillee knew that they would not walk away unscathed!

9. Michael Holding

This bowler was aggressive and single-minded when it came to bowling. He was passionate about taking wickets and took 248 during his career. While these statistics are impressive, what is even more remarkable is his nickname. “Whispering Death” is what his team-mates called him which explains more than enough about his abilities!

10. Malcolm Marshall

It has been said that Marshall had the ability to make batsmen very nervous. His pace was fast, his swing was ‘deadly’ and his accuracy was radar-like. He took over 370 Test wickets and is among the most phenomenal bowlers in cricket history.

10. Prince of Persia

Release Date: May 28th 2010

If you are a fan of the video game series than you have a pretty good idea of what to expect from Prince of Persia; A cocky prince (Jack Gyllenhaal) opens the sands of time after being tricked by an evil Vizier and now it is his job to set the world right again by slashing, hacking, jumping and manipulating time on his way to victory. Although it’s Disney, we think this movie will still be a good time and even if it sucks you can stare at Gemma Arterton for 2 hours, sounds like a win win to us.

9. Avatar: The Last Air Bender

Release Date; July 2nd 2010

If you are a nerd and a kid at heart like us you will love the cartoon series “Avatar: The Last Air Bender”. The basic concept behind the story is people can control the basic elements by bending them, but only the Avatar, Aang can control them all. It is Aang’s job to bring peace back to the world by defeating the evil fire lord. With the help of his friends he learns to master all 4 elements and reach his true power.

We really have high hopes for this movie but with M. Night Shyamalan involved who knows what direction this movie will take. Let’s just cross our fingers and hope he doesn’t muff this up as well.

8. Shrek Forever After – Shrek 4

Release Date: May 2010

Well it looks like Mike Myers and Eddy Murphy need new yachts, meet Shrek Forever After. In this version Shrek has become a domesticated family man. Instead of scaring villagers away like he used to, the now-reluctant ogre agrees to autograph pitch forks. Longing for the days when he felt like a “real ogre,” Shrek is tricked into signing a pact with the smooth-talking deal maker, Rumpelstiltskin. Shrek suddenly finds himself in a twisted, alternate version of Far Far Away, where ogres are hunted, Rumplestiltskin is king and Shrek and Fiona have never met. Now, it’s up to Shrek to undo all of Rumpelstiltskin’s mischief in the hopes of saving his friends, restoring his world and reclaiming his one True Love and family.

7. Robin Hood

Release Date: May 14th 2010

What another Robin Hood movie? Not surprising Hollywood hasn’t had an original idea in years, but this Robin Hood has promise. Taking from the book of Batman Begins, the movie follows the exploits of Richard Coeur De Lion who later becomes the legendary Robin Hood. As long as Russell Crowe keeps his fists to himself and doesn’t punch out the director, we think this movie will turn out pretty good.

6. A team

Release Date: June 11th 2010

This was on the list last year, Top 10 Most Anticipated Movies of 2009, but here is what we had to say about it back then:

In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn’t commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.

HELL YEAH. As long as they keep the casting under control and don’t go all Starsky and Hutch on this one it could be the movie I’ve been waiting years for. The only thing I don’t think I’ll be able to get past is someone other than Mr. T playing B.A. Baracus (especially if it’s Ice Cube who is rumored).

5. Toy Story 3

Release Date: June 18th 2010

We love us some Toy Story, but who doesn’t, honestly? In Toy Story 3 Andy is all grown up and off to college and now has new toys to play with, barley legal 18 year old girls. With no need for toys Woody, Buzz, and the rest of their toy-box friends are dumped in a day-care center after their owner, Andy, departs for college. The Toy Story series hasn’t failed us yet and I doubt it will this time. Good fun for all ages. Can’t wait.

4. Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland

Release Date: March 5th 2010

Tim Burton is at it again, taking a childhood story and skull f*&king it into something awesome. Tim Burton’s version of Alice in Wonder takes place ten years after Alice last visited wonderland. While attending a socialite party she catches a glimpse of the famous white rabbit which she follows into a dark hole, sending her into the infamous Wonderland. From the looks of the movie, it doesn’t seem that this is going to be the last dark hole Alice wonders into. Can someone say sequel.

3. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1

November 19th 2010

Guilty! We freaking love Harry Potter. If I was being biased this would be number one on the list but I’m not, so number three it is. Part one of the Deathly Halllows starts off where the last movie ended, the magic world is in shambles and dark times are ahead. Harry, Ron, and Hermione are on the run from the Death Eaters all the while trying to save the world. The most action packed of all the books this one is sure to pull in even anti-potter viewers.

2. Twilight Saga: Eclipse

Release Date: 30 June 2010

If you are a thirteen year old girl or a flamboyant man, you can’t wait for more sparkly vampires. In Eclipse Bella and Edward have been reunited, but their forbidden relationship is threatened to be torn apart again with an evil vampire still seeking her revenge. And Bella is forced to choose between her true love for Edward or her friendship with Jacob Black as the struggles between vampires and werewolves continues. But there is still another choice for Bella to make, mortality or immortality? Not going to lie, it took a lot for us to place this one on the list and so close to the top.

1. Iron Man 2

Release Date: May 7th 2010

The last Iron Man movie left nerds around the world with a sticky wet spot on their jeans and a smile on their pimpled faces and we can’t blame them, Iron man kicked ass. And by no surprise Marvel Studios is already working on Iron Man 2. Iron Man two is rumored to take a deeper link into the mind of Tony Stark using parts of the “Demon in a Bottle” story line. But lets be honest all we want to know is will there be more suits, more action and more Stark and the answer is YES! Iron Man two is a sure fire pick for this years number one most anticipated movie of 2010.
