X-Men Origins: WOLVERINE (2009)
Apr 30, 2009 Author: Vipgay | Filed under: gay
James Logan aka Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and his brother Victor Creed (Liev Schreiber)(who will later become Sabretooth) run out together as children in the mid 1850’s after Logan kills their biological father who had murdered Logan’s adoptive father. After serving together in many wars they are recruited by William Stryker (Danny Huston) to do in a special unit made up of mutants. After wiping out an African villiage, Logan quits the whole and goes off to be a biography of repose in the Canadian Rockies with his girlfriend later to be known as the Silver Fox (Lynn Collins).
Six years pass for the both of them until Stryker shows up and asks Logan to fall second and be a section of a new Weapon X project. Logan refuses but Creed shows up and murders Logan’s girlfriend leaving him wanting revenge against his brother. Logan accepts Strykers offer to be infused with Adamantium so that he can be indestructable and go after his revenge but is double crossed by Stryker and hears him have the range to rub his memories. Escaping before this can happen, he goes searching for Creed killing anyone who gets in his way.
The 100 minute movie is strongest during its first half. The part of the story is more or less open territory for accomplished director Gavin Hood (Tsotsi, Rendition) to do what he does best – focus on characterisation, crafting an almost mythological take on the Wolverine/Sabretooth relationship, linking their childhood together and bonding them through shared tragedy. The cast of their fathers is exceptional – worth pointing out on its own. 
The opening sequence also leads into arguably the film’s sharpest sequence, tracing the pair’s lives through four wars as Victor Creed/Sabretooth begins to lose control. Through clever use of frame and tight editing, transitions between decades flows smoothly, while the horrors of the battlefield actually offset what is a surprisingly brilliant way to show the key differences between the wind characters. Only a smattering of other moments in the film reach this stage of counsel and polish.
Did I love this movie? Yes, I did love it. It was close to the X-Men, although as some critics have pointed out, other X-Men who appeared were poorly developed and frequently just seemed to be there as props. I didn’t feel this too bad as the report was the inception of Wolverine and the film was to establish how he became the way he is as good as provide some great action scenes. The storyline was good, especially through the wars and his on-going battle with Victor (Sabretooth) and Stryker was good. Hugh Jackman, of form is a full heart-throb, and his bare and almost nude scenes were safe for my heart. His recent refusal/denial that he is gay is a total joke, a beat-up by some weird people; but to see him with his shirt stripped off would cause any gay guy wish for him to be on our position of the bed!
Did I see any portion of the movie bad?No, I really couldn’t say that I found any section of the movie objectional in any way. And I conceive the 200 people (mainly young guys) who saw it with me in Penrith totally enjoyed the film also.
I was surprised to see Max Cullen and Peter O’Brien (two of my favourite Australian actors) in supporting roles in this movie. Well done, guys!
FAST AND FURIOUS: New Model, Original Parts (2009)
Apr 30, 2009 Author: Vipgay | Filed under: gay
Fast & Furious (also known as Fast & Furious 4 in other countries) is the fourth film in The Quick and the Furious film series. It is an interquel, set between 2 Firm 2 Furious and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. The movie was released in Australia on April 23, 2009. The plot connects with the pilot picture of the series from which Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez, and Jordana Brewster reprise their roles. The picture was directed by Justin Lin, who also directed the third episode of the series, The Quick and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.
After a successful run of hijacking fuel tankers in the Dominican Republic, Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) has become an international criminal. Under increasing pressure from the local police, Dom’s partner Han (from the third film) decides to fly to Tokyo. Dom is afraid of what will find to Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) if the government ever see him and join her to him, so he sleeps with her and leaves her.
Meanwhile, Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker), now an FBI agent, is assigned to cut down a notorious drug lord named Arturo Braga. Brian’s investigation also leads him to David Park. He arrives at Park’s apartment while Dom is still interrogating him (by keeping him by his ankles outside a window). At the FBI office, Park also tells Brian that the aforementioned street race grants the winner a point on the squad that traffics heroin across the United States-Mexico border for Braga. He visits Dom’s sister, Mia (Jordana Brewster), warning her to stop away from Dom, as he will finally get caught.
Did I love this movie? Hell, yes. And it wasn’t just because I saw the film with my wonderful boyfriend (although I must confess, it is ever the better time when I am with him). This sequence is close to the pilot and fits perfectly within the sequence. The report is believable, although such street racing through the streets, lanes and motorways of Los Angeles is amazing without police interference.
AXEL Gay Hotels – Now in Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Berlin and Expanding!
Apr 29, 2009 Author: Vipgay | Filed under: gay
Inaugurated on 1 July 2003, Axel Hotel Barcelona was the maiden hotel in the Axel Hotels chain and the first city designer hotel aimed at the gay community.nbsp; Axel Hotel Barcelona is a trend-setter and has become an external reference for gay accommodations.
From the outset, the team has paid attention to still the slightest detail; first of all, its position in theGayxample, heart of Barcelona’s gay scene, only 10 minutes from the fashion centres of the city, the district el Borne and the old city centre. Without forgetting its architecture and design: Axel Hotel Barcelona has been built in a renovated building of the former nineteenth century, maintaining its façade and spectacular tinted windows from the other years of modernism. Its interiors, fully refurbished, have been conceived to offer design and ease in a warm atmosphere. Furniture from Vitra, Kartell and Swan, the Axel mosaic and photography light boxes of Emilio Lekuona configure the exclusive Axel universe.
Its 60 rooms include 10 Premium rooms and the Axel Suite, each with its own case and exquisite design. All rooms are soundproof, air-conditioned, luminous and extremely comfortable: with a king size bed, plasma TV with Internet, Wi-Fi connection for laptops and room service. Also features restaurant, bar, gym, saunas, pool.
And most important, the Axel team, carefully selected to provide personalized, genuine and professional service catering to all our guests requirements and anticipating their needs.
For all of the above reasons, Axel Hotel Barcelona has been chosen the “best gay hotel in the world” by the readers of prestigious travel magazine The Out Traveler (USA). Through the annual survey Reader’s Choice Awards, hundreds of readers voted for the Axel Hotel Barcelona to put it in the ranking’s top position.
Marketed as the first five-star gay hotel in Latin America (but also “heterofriendly”), the second AxelHotel Buenos Aires confirmed what many gay travelers already knew: the Argentine capital is becoming South America’s next party capital. Situated in the bohemian-chic neighborhood of San Telmo.
In San Telmo, you can let yourself go and be charmed by the Axel Hotel Buenos Aires – a general and enticing space that stimulates the senses. With tango in the air, design and comfort, Axel Hotel Buenos Aires seduces everyone with its turn of lights and transparency, the voice of water, the Axel mosaic and furniture by Charles & Ray Eames, Mies van der Rohe and Eileen Gray.
48 designer rooms with captivating details. All guestrooms are air-conditioned, cosy and extremely comfortable, conceived and furnished for maximum enjoyment: king size bed, plasma TV, iPod On Stage speakers, Wi-Fi connection, hydro-massage bath or shower in a glass prism, safe and room service.
The hotel also offers a restaurant, cocktail bar, chillout zone, spa with a spectacular swimming pool on the top floor with a translucent floor visible from the principal expanse of the hotel, a 5 floor atrium in the lobby, jacuzzi and sauna, a garden with an outdoor swimming pool and solarium, an outdoor bar & bistro, meeting room and Wi-Fi connection throughout the hotel.
The Buenos Aires property is located in one of the oldest districts in Buenos Aires. The birthplace of tango, San Telmo has a density of antiques businesses, bars and restaurants in its renovated 19th century buildings. A few blocks away are the Avenida 9 de Julio and the Casa Rosada, and every weekend the antique market fills the picturesque Plaza Dorrego with movement, people and colour.
Axel Hotel Buenos Aires was recommended by The New York Times “as one of the 53 places to go in 2008”.
Axel Hotel Berlin is the third and newest hotel in the chain. Opened last month, after a class and a half in construction, the new hotel relies on an investment of 13 million euros.
The Berlin hotel is located at 13-15 Lietzenburger Street, in the neighborhood of Schöneberg, heart of the city’s gay scene. Bars, restaurants, bookshops, discos, cinemas, and clothes shops with dash and glamour make up an extensive hedonistic universe steeped in history. In the twenties Schöneberg was already the epicenter of the Berlin movement, becoming the aspiration for the mythical Cabaret. Axel Hotel Berlin is only one block from the mythical KaDeWe department stores and very faithful to Ku’damm, the famous shopping avenue which houses the chief international fashion brands.
The new hotel has 86 designer guest rooms, equipped to allow guests with maximum comfort. According to Íñigo Hernández Tofé, Spanish architect, collaborator of Axel Hotels and godhead of the architectural design of Axel Hotel Berlin, “the hotel plays with the colours black and gold representing simplicity and elegance. A distinctive touch is added by the transparencies of colour, inspired by the Axel Mosaic along with the visual effects which reflect the façade in several areas inside the hotel”.
The building consists of 6 floors and a roof terrace. The restaurant with its terrace, the cocktail bar and the clear air lounge-bar are its most representative spaces. Moreover, the hotel has a spa with an open air Jacuzzi with spectacular views over the city, sauna, Turkish bath, gym, relaxation area and massage cubicles; and business centers, comfortable and cosy reading areas with PC access and free high speed internet connection.
The International Gay & Lesbian Travel Association (IGLTA) are holding their International League in Toronto in a couple weeks.nbsp; At the event,nbsp; Juan P. Juliá, president of Axel Hotels , will be esteemed for outstanding professional accomplishments.
“These awards recognize our friends and colleagues in the travel industry who are not only setting the bar, but making the public more approachable and pleasurable for gay and lesbian travelers in the process,” IGLTA Executive Director John Tanzella said.
Named the International Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce’s “Businessman of the Year” in 2008, Juliá will receive IGLTA’s Chairman’s Award, which recognizes individuals who blaze new and inspiring paths in their turn to promote inclusiveness within the tourism industry. Known as the world’s first gay hotel chain, Juliá’s Axel Hotels has been accepted for its general atmosphere and focusing on diversity by such leading publications as Out Traveler and The New York Times.
“Juan Juliá has made a substantial commitment to developing quality accommodations that process and prayer to the gay and lesbian community,” IGLTA Board Chairman Bryan Herb said. “ Axel Hotels are dead in contrast with where I see the gay travel industry heading. The properties have a gay sensibility with amenities and features that are crucial to gay and lesbian travelers, yet they are focussed on being, as they say, ‘hetero-friendly.’ There’s a great vibe about it because these are places where gay and lesbian people can only be themselves.”
According to Juliá, IGLTA’s recognition of his society and its unique culture could not have come at a better time. “2009 has been the class we open our third hotel, and the part of a new phase in the group to export the Axel concept to the major cities of the five continents,” Juliá said. “This award is a big encouragement to continue forging ahead in this very special project.”
