Features : Warner Bros. The best!
Hey guys~! Today I'm just gonna go ~GaGa~ over WB (my shortcut) aka Warner Bros. Entertainment, Inc., also known as Warner Bros. Pictures or in short, Warner Bros. which is an American producer of film and television entertainment (Ps. the often-used Warner Brothers is incorrect). Besides this, my all-time-favorite are the Yakko, Wakko and Dot Warner aka "The Warner Brothers (and the Warner Sister)" or just simply "The Warners". Who are they? The trio of red-nosed Warner siblings all appear in the Animaniacs logo, and the show usually begins and ends with gags performed by them.
It's on of my favorite cartoon purposely drawn in the style of early black and white visuals. The Warner siblings were part of a crazy and hilarious cast and often made appearances in other characters' segments, often as a literal running gag. (Animaniacs, featuring Yakko, Wakko and Dot plus Pinky and the Brain)
Guess what... Warner Bros. one of the "major" film studios, it is a subsidiary of Time Warner and Warner Bros. also has several subsidiary companies, including Warner Bros. Studios, Warner Bros. Pictures, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, Warner Bros. Television, Warner Bros. Animation, Warner Home Video, New Line Cinema, TheWB.com, and DC Comics. Warner owns half of The CW Television Network.
Here's how it all began : (Just a short recap over the years...)
1903 - 1925 : Founding
1925 - 1935 : Sound, Color, Style
1930 : The birth of Warner's cartoons
1931 - 1935 : Pre-code realistic period & code era
1936 onwards : World War II
After World War II : Changing Hands
1949 : Warner Bros. Television
1958 : Warner Bros. Records
In the late 1950s : Warner Bros. rebounded with new owners
Since 1995 : Warner and station owner Tribune Company of Chicago launched The WB Network, finding a niche market in teenagers.
In the late 1990s, Warner obtained rights to the Harry Potter novels, and released feature film adaptations of the first in 2001, the second in 2002, the third in June 2004, the fourth in November 2005, and the fifth on July 11, 2007. The sixth was slated for November 2008, but Warner moved it to July 2009 only three months before the movie was supposed to come out, citing the lack of summer blockbusters in 2009 (due to the Writer's Strike) as the reason. The decision was purely financial, and Alan Horn said, "There were no delays. I’ve seen the movie. It is fabulous. We would have been perfectly able to have it out in November." This resulted in a massive fan backlash. The seventh and final adaptation, to be shown in two parts, has been announced for 2010 and 2011.
In 2009, Warner Bros. became the first studio in history to gross more than $2 billion domestically in a single year.
It is responsible for the Harry Potter film series, the highest grossing film series of all time. Warner Brothers is also responsible for The Dark Knight, the 2008 Academy Award-winning Batman film that eventually became the studio's highest grossing film ever with over $1 billion. Warner Bros. films were the top-grossing films worldwide for 2001('Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"), 2005 ("Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire") and 2008 (The Dark Knight).
To cut to the chase, Warner Bros. Entertainment is a fully integrated, broad-based entertainment company. A global leader in the creation, production, distribution, licensing and marketing of all forms of creative content and their related businesses, across all current and emerging media and platforms. The company stands at every aspect of the entertainment industry from feature film, TV and home entertainment production and worldwide distribution to DVD, digital distribution, animation, comic books, licensing, international cinemas and broadcastin. Now this is definitely something to feature and brag about!

Here's our favorite Harry Potter Movie posters some from Warner Bros. (I guess..hehhe)

My Favourite Past Time!
Well... What do you do when you have reports coming in everyday, every week and every month? Not enough time to complete it all and always doing more than you should or more than you were paid for?
Have you ever had an experience or maybe facing a situation where you, single or not, have been soooooo busy, that going out for a drink or even going out for dinner has become a slight hassle to you and a distraction to your work?
Maybe it's just me but... The things I do, I take it as seriously as much as I can (I'm only 22, I have my limits too~ I'm no Superwoman) Which reminds me, I guess it's just me afterall... I seldom go out once I come back from work. My reports just keeps adding, I keep learning (AND repeating) but yes... Life is full of Ups & Downs...
Past Time Favourites :
1. Internet Browsing (I need to be online doing reports afterall)
2. Blogging (Starting to love it!)
3. Sing songs (24/7 without fail)
4. Dance (used to infront of a mirror - like practice... but I dance in my head nowadays... Might rec a vid soon hehehehe)
5. Compose Songs (still trying....)
6. Listen to music
7. Playing NDS Lite!
8. Facebook
9. Online chatting
10. Playing Online Games (Currently : Destiny Online & Hello Kitty Online...)
Well, not exactly Top 10 list but.... It's a random list of the Top 10 favs I have...
I only have pictures of NDS and the current game that I'm "oh-so-into" nowadays!
(Ps. These are my only entertainment for the past 1 year and running... That's why I'm so thankful for Nuffnang & SFC for the event I was invited to go to last 16th Jan 2010 >> Click Here <<
AND I was SUPER THRILLED and tired AND BUSY but EXCITED at the Nokia Comes With Music Launch Party with Boys Like Girls! Seeing them up-close & personal... I'm in love... Lolx!!)

My favourite past time is something I do to naturally rid stress and replenish the outings I've missed these past few years... Blah... Blah... Blah...

Yoyo The Clown
Malaysia's very own "YoYo The Clown"! You'll see him at parties, functions, events and Genting Highlands! Today Sabrina will bring you with an exclusive interview with "YoYo The Clown"! Here goes...
It was 2.15pm when Sabrina reached the doorstep of "Yoyo The Clown", a friendly guy, filled with enthusiasm, fun and laughter. Always cracking up jokes every now and then and never stops being down-to-earth all at the same time.
Sabrina: Good afternoon, Yoyo! It's a pleasure meeting you!
Yoyo : Afternoon to you too young lady and pleasure meeting you too.
Sabrina : I was amazed by the Mardi Gras Parade last seen on Sunday, 12th July 2009 at Genting Highlands! I was awed in excitement and who did it? I mean who came up with the idea?
Yoyo : Genting Highlands of course. I did help out bringing in the people to for the performances like the Magical Clown Show, Fire Dance Show, Mascot Stage Show and the list goes on (chuckles)
Sabrina : (laughs) Amazing! AND the list goes on? Such as? I'm interested, tell us more, it's always good to know!
Yoyo : (grins) Well I had people to come in to dress up in rainbow-coloured costumes, masquerade masks, clowns putting on cheeky faces, stilt walkers, magicians, fire-eating tribal groups (my favourite) and characters from 1001 Nights of Arabia.
Sabrina : Wow! No wonder the parade was lively and colorful AND exciting! I mean, Genting always comes up with fabulous ideas over the years and this is one parade worth mentioning! I'm lucky to interview you right at this moment! You're Genting Highlands very own clown, aren't you?
Yoyo : Well, I've been with Genting Highlands for 8 - 9 years now and it just keeps getting better (chuckles)
Sabrina : And it's great to know that too! But 8 - 9 years?! How long have you been in this business?
Yoyo : In Malaysia, 16 years and overseas 11 years.
Sabrina : A total of 27 years and how did it began?
Yoyo : I actually started at the International Shrine Clown Association (ISCA) of North America since 1983. I was also a member at the NorthEast Shrine Clown Association (NESCA) and I belong to The Northern Clowns of Cairo Temple, Rutland VT.
Sabrina : So how long did you live abroad and decided to come to Malaysia to make it big here?
Yoyo : I lived in Vermont for 11 years or so, volunteering with the Shriners, helping out at charity for 22 hospitals for children before moving back home to Malaysia in the 90s.
Sabrina : When you came back to Malaysia, your first job was Genting Highlands?
Yoyo : (laughs) No, not really. You see, the moment I came back to Malaysia, there wasn't much talent in the clowning business here. So I started the balloon sculpture until today and worked in some hotels like Putra Jaya Marriot Hotel, Sunway Lagoon, Sunway Pyramid, parties, functions, private and company events and now Genting Highlands.
Sabrina: That's great! And tell us, besides the clown and balloon sculpture, are there anything else that helped you expand your business in Malaysia?
Yoyo : Of course (grins), I love to help scout for entertainers like mentioned above such as the magicians, clowns, mimes, santa clause, God Of Prosperity, stilt walkers, diablo performers and all kinds of artists.
Sabrina : What's your specialty in all that?
Yoyo : Balloon sculpture (smiles). I can make all kinds of balloons at special requests. It takes time and money but it's worth it. I can make a dragon so real, you might just want to put in on display and try not to burst it (laughs)
Sabrina : (laughs) That is amazing! Well tell me more about Mardi Gras Parade. I mean besides the people what about the props?
Yoyo : Besides supplying most of the entertainers for Genting, I lliase a lot with them (Genting) and supply most of the costumes because we make them ourselves even the make up is done by us and trainings I will provide at the same time.
Sabrina : Cool! You're like an all-rounder! It's great to know. Besides Mardi Gras Parade, other events that we can spot you in?
Yoyo : (chuckles) We have events, Diablo events and we even get a group to train the public free-of-charge (FOC). Students will flock by whenever it's a school holiday and they will come and will be eager to learn the Diablo.
Sabrina : Diablo? You caught me there. I'm clueless, fill me in?
Yoyo : (laughs) Well I won't be surprised. You see, Diablo is a chinese yo-yo also known as "ChÄ› LÃng", we get performers from Malaysia to come to Genting Highlands and compete and the Best performance and selected participants gets to go to Taiwan, China to win competition and prizes. Some are even hired by Genting Highland to come and perform during the festival and holiday season and all the best players will group on 2 days.
Sabrina : 2 days? Is it soon? What's the update from Genting Highlands this coming holiday?
Yoyo : (smiles) You guessed it right, it was Genting's innovative idea to have this Diablo competition for social purposes known worldwide many many years ago and this will be the first "National Diablo Competition" in Genting Highlands for Malaysians.
Sabrina : The first! This is exclusive! Tell us more!
Yoyo : (laughs) Well, it's just around the corner. On the 19th - 20th December 2009, the "National Diablo Competition" will be official held at Genting Highlands and we expect up to 80 participants all over Malaysia during this 2 day event. There'll be qualified judges and I'm doing my part to help out in this event as much as I can for Genting Highlands.
Sabrina : You sure work hard! Genting Highlands is so lucky to have you on their side. And I realize time is almost up when we're "chatting" (giggles). It's so great to meet you and a wonderful experience it is!
Yoyo : (chuckles) You're pretty much exciting yourself. It's great to meet you too.
Sabrina : Why thank you. I think I'll be headed back for now. I hope to very much hear more of you and the happenings and buzz in Genting Highlands.
Yoyo : You're welcome and same with Ratianda. Keep me posted on the latest updates (smiles).
Sabrina : Thanks again.
Hey guys! It's me Sabrina. I hope you all enjoyed this interview spot! I hope to bring you more! Well, do look out for it!
