TGV Club Launched @ Sunway Pyramid

TGV Cinemas in Sunway recently launched the IMAX hall and now put another historic launch in their book to kick off 2012! What I’m talking about? I’m talking about the TGV Club, their first and ever premiere class halls (there’s 2!) in the very same venue as the IMAX theater! Was told by Kenny that Sunway Pyramid is one of the biggest draw for TGV Cinemas when it comes to cinema goers, that’s why the public that goes to this venue gets pampered with all these new goodies first.

Felt honored to be invited to the launch as I’m a movie buff (even though I don’t write movie reviews often in here, will work on that or anyone willing to volunteer their service in doing movie reviews? Let me know, I can take you along with me to the movies, and you do the writing) and at the same time during the launch, I got the meet up with acquaintances I got to know from way back in 2008 (but lost touch). How cool is that? (more…)

Attended the 2nd edition of Carlsberg‘s Where’s The Party at their very own Brewery where the first Carlsberg beer was locally brewed in 1972. Estimated to have in excess of 2,000 guests at the venue scattered across the various areas of the brewery. Loads of food, games and rides like the Ferris Wheel, Pirate Ship, Adult Carousel and the most packed of all, the Sky Rider.

As usual I got to the venue earlier than everyone else and the crew was still in the midst of setting up under the rain. Made my way into the Tavern for some drink cause I’m a tad thirsty. Ehem. What a way to start the party eh? The first of the many buses ferrying the party goers started to arrive around 4pm from Shah Alam stadium and everyone made their way in and got the party going.
