LaMB- crime for beauty

Lamination is a process where somebody is put in a suit or laminated. This is
done to criminals and they can stay young and beautiful for about 500 years. But
that means that their face nerves are constrained and they can’t speak and touch
other people until asked to fo so. And that is the reason than even if somebody
pays me $2 Billion to commit a crime on Cerra and be laminated, I would refuse.
What’s the point of staying young and pretty if you are not free. If your outer
beauty can’t be seen by others, even if you are a god-at-heart kind of a person,
what’s the point. Besides, once you have committed a crime, you are no more a
good-at-heart person. So, I will not commit a crime to stay young and beautiful.

posted on 22 dec 08 by me. But now I have changed my mind. I wud not commit a crime to stay beutiful, but i wud like to experience for once how does it feel to be a LaMB. Male LaMBs are called Adam+serial no. and the female ones are called Eve+serial no. Then even my code name wud be Eve+something! :) ! But not for a long time definately.

The LaMB rules

Animax-LaMB is going to be released in March 2009. I can't wait to watch! Its got everrything I like-scifi, drama, love, tragedy and a lot more! When is March going to come!

I thought about posting the LaMB rules on my blog for the time being. The LaMB rules as stated on www.animax-lamb.com are:-

LaMBs can't touch another human being.

LaMBs act only upon instructions of their Shpherd.

LaMBs can't speak but can hear.

Every LaMB's neck brace and in-ear nano-chips are combined to translate the Shepherd's instructions into physical actions.

LaMBs will recieve deep electrocution pain if they attack another human being.

LaMBs do not have any facial expressions as their facial nerves are blocked.

LaMBs eyes will glow red when their lamination suit electrocutes them.

LaMBs do not bneed food. they survive on a special fluid that provides energy and nutrients.

LaMBs can't charge themselves . Only their Shepherds can charge the LaMBs' power system.

LaMBs technology metabolises human waste and converts it into H2O which dissipates through the suit.

LaMBs will be assigned to Shepherds by CABC.

Only elite organisations and highest level missions will recieve the aid of the enhanced LaMBs.

Lamination suits are water proof, strength-enhancing and highly heat resistant.

Lamination takes 7 days to complete.

De-lamination is possible and takes 28 days to complete.

All LaMBs don't need physical clothing and are allowed to be seen in public in their original LaMB siuts.

The first is an elegant ‘little black dress’ with cloud-like motifs embossed throughout, characterised by shoulder seams ending in a peak. The second design includes a long-sleeved jacket with a collar worn over a short black dress with a ruffled collar for a ‘soft’ yet ‘militaristic’ look and feel.Both exclusive designs will be made into two unique dresses by Vivienne Tam to be showcased at LaMB launch events across the region in March 2009, but are not for sale. However, prêt-à-porter versions of the two dresses are part of Vivienne Tam's Fall/Winter 2008 Collection.“Getting involved in an animation production is definitely a first for me, and it's something that sounds too exciting for me to turn down. Designing for ‘real’ and ‘reel’ presented very different challenges, but I had a lot of fun doing it. I can't wait to see how the dresses turn out on screen in animated form!” said Vivienne Tam.Based in New York since 1994, Vivienne Tam is a leading designer producing, designing and marketing women's contemporary apparel. The company distributes its creations in major department stores, specialty stores and independent boutiques throughout the US and enjoys a strong presence in Asia Pacific with over 30 freestanding stores and in-store boutiques.

Anime has long been influenced by the creativity and vibrancy of fashion and Animax is very proud to have a top fashion brand in Vivienne Tam gracing LaMB.

Funimation Gets Fullmetal Alchemist Premium Colection

Funimation is now producing the hagaren OVA in English! Its a great news! :) I had watched the OVA in japanese but it is totally different to watch it in English! This is the report that appeared on ANN:

Distributor hopes to make "FMA related announcement" later this month.

The Fanboy Review website reports that Funimation has acquired the Fullmetal Alchemist: Premium Collection set of animated shorts, and was dubbing them with the original English cast before the new year began. The Premium Collection includes the "Seven Homunculi VS State Alchemists" short that was screened at the Universal Studios Japan amusement park's Fullmetal Alchemist Premium Tour to promote the 2005 Fullmetal Alchemist film. In this "what-if" story, the two sides of the conflict face off in one giant battle. The Premium Collection also includes three DVD shorts that shipped after the movie ended: "Live Action," "Chibi Party," and "Kids." These shorts were the last animated footage created for Fullmetal Alchemist — until this coming April's new Fullmetal Alchemist television adaptation of Hiromu Arakawa's original manga. A Funimation spokesperson told ANN that the company is "hoping to make an FMA related announcement at Ohayocon later this month." The Ohayocon event takes place in Columbus, Ohio from January 30 to February 1.

Hagaren remake!

Ges what did i just find on ANN! A fma remake is being made! :) http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2009-01-11/new-fullmetal-alchemist-anime-staff-confirmed is the link. its gonna be directed by Yasuhiro Irie. I m so excited about it. i mean the anime tv series had a pretty disappointing end and in the movie's end, the bros, come together, but separate from all their other companions and their original world.

But from what i read, i understand that they r primarily going to stick to d manga storyline this time, probably from where they diverged from. i read d comments and someone stated that it was money that they were remaking the whole thing, even after its grand success among the audiences. and if u ask for my personal opinion, the remake will spoil the whole consistency in the story. Tho i m dying to watch the remark, it might just be best for the anime version to remain unchanged.

Animax-LaMB for or against lamination

Hi all! Mysticalchemist again!

I was going thru d site http://www.cab-cerra.com/ . (Animax's site bout CABC from LaMB). This is wht it had 2 say bout lamination:

  • it saves billions' of taxpayers' dollars that would otherwise be used for building and marinating prisons and law enforcement resources.

  • lamination suits allows sentences of up to 500 yrs which deters crime and helps to maintain a low crime rate.

  • reduces illegal slavery, domestic abuse and child labour because the public can now legally engage the services of these laminated criminals.

  • lamination is environment-friendly as it reduces the release of free radicals.

  • there is no need for rehabilitation and aftercare programmes to facilitate the reintegration of a criminal back to the community and its family after his/her sentence.

i agree that these definitely serve as strong pts for d enforcement of lamination, but as i said that it is against the env.'s laws of birth & death. then there is d tax money invested in laminating criminals. and d rehab thing, i guess anyone including criminals will be highly disturbed by being a lamb. i mean, think bout it. no expression, freewill, senses and all. in a prison, at least d prisoner gets to eat food an do wht he wants inside it.

Alright d domestic abuse and child labour thing is pretty cool. imagine d no. of people u save from inhuman work conditions, BUT ISN'T LAMINATION GOT TO BE INHUMAN. and then again, where will those people go who work for a living even in those inhuman conditions!

d whole idea is brilliant in itself if it can do all tat stated above. but if i were working in CABC, lamination wud hv been baned by now.

And i ges tats wht they r going 2 do at the end of d movie. So no mater how good this punishment is, i hv more pts against it than for it.
