15 Hottest Movie and TV Cat-suits (Part 2)


Hectic week so far? Don't worry, something to brighten it up mid-week then is in order!
Now whoever you might be, a thing of beauty is precisely that and with that spiritual thought in mind, I have for you the second half – the top of the top – of my list of some of the most enticing bad-ass ladies ever on film!
Now, in case you think I'm being sexist or you're a lady yourself and have a grouse about it – don't. Let's be honest, men can be a lot of things but nothing compared to a beautiful woman and every single one of these ladies was aiming for precisely that effect and I think it would be hypocritical of me not to honestly appreciate them.
And so, feel free to catch up with the countdown in the first half of this list, but if you've been waiting since last week I shall delay no more and get right to it:

7. Milla Jovovich as Alice in Resident Evil : Afterlife
From the first moment I saw Milla Jovovich in the truly under-appreciated The Fifth Element playing the kooky Leeloo, I think a part of me was smitten for a long while – all compounded when she continued to be the most bad-ass of the bad-asses and hands down the best leading action lady around and Resident Evil was the one that made her even bigger.
No-one can make wholesale devastation and chaos as good as Milla! Period.

15 Hottest Movie and TV Cat-suits (Part 1)



The Avengers's has been rocking the record books and the much anticipated The Dark Knight Rises is on the horizon to possibly break even more of them. One big thing that they both share in common? Each has a lovely leading lady kicking arse in the quintessential cat-suits that all the coolest and most bad-ass ladies have donned.

SO! In honour of Anne Hathaway rocking a killer new look for Christopher Nolan's grand Bat-finale, I decided that we need to bring in something apart from the same old, same old.
With that in mind, we have on the menu for you today (and in the next couple of weeks) the best of the best in cinematic cat-suits! Some you'll know, some you'll WISH you'd known and will be discovering for the first time (yes, we try to be educational as well!) and for all that, you're welcome.
So let's kick off this countdown of cat-like coolness with the ladies who were flat out smokin', #8-15 today followed by #7-1 in less than a week! (followed by a special list of the ones who came that close but didn't make the final cut, what can I say? Love them all!)
Feel free to disagree, add to the list, give an opinion why someone should have been higher, lower, replaced – all views welcome and if you guys are active enough about it I'm inclined to make a fan-favourite Top-10 list after all this is done!
Enjoy!

This One's for the Girls!


This is for all of the geek ladies out there. Halloween is a great time because you can always look forward to dressing up as your favorite super-heroine and going out to parties or what not, right? The big question is this: why do costume companies feel the need to slut up the costumes?

We're geeks, we know that if the gals in the comics were real they would be anatomically lacking proportion and the outfits they're wearing are completely impractical. Still we accept it as we read comics because it's fun. There's something empowering about a woman in a tight leather or spandex outfit and heels beating on some thug at least twice her size. Still the question remains, why make those costumes any skimpier than they already are?
The other part of that is they make slutty versions of the guy superhero costumes too. No one is going to believe that just because you're wearing a shiny red mini skirt and yellow glasses that you're Iron Man.

If you thought that Batman, Scarecrow, Wonder Women, Wolverine, Jafar, Joker and all the other awesome character - wonderfully donned by our very sporty Cosplayers in Delhi - were good, then you're in for a joy ride my friend, coz Comic Con Express Mumbai has declared the gaming season!

If the response in Delhi was a pleasant surprise for you, this one will be nothing short of Brahmic Bliss.

Mumbai's first ever Comic Convention - Comic Con Express has announced the Costume Contest open!!!

Oct-22 and 23, 2011, Mumbai will be the culmination of the glorious cosplay culture from all across India.
You will not only get to meet like-minded geeks, fellow fanboys (and girls, of course), be popular and cash in your 15 minutes of fame - as Mr. Warhol predicted - and overall have super fun, you can ALSO win some totally mind-blowing PRIZES!!!

Yes, you heard me right! So if you yell Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and break into a jiggy jazzy dance, I wouldn't really blame you. I'd have done the same, if I wasn't dance impaired!


So take out those threads, those sewing needles and machines, spandex rolls, capes, hats, overcoats, swords, guns, claws, lasers and anything else you have been stashing for years and get down to it, coz one thing is for sure! None of us Addicts are going down without a hell of a fight!

Wonder Bai and I'll see you there Bub.

Yours,
Fellow Addict.
