]]>A woman who was unhappy with the quality of her BMW X5, decided the only way to get BMW’s attention was to go via the channel of mass media, because angry letters just dont work anymore!
The woman in question, Miss Ma spent 700,000rmb on buying the BMW 525i in April 2008, she quickly found that the Beemers gearbox would jump out of gear by itself, obviously indicating a possible product defect, then the cars electrical system would die for no reason. Miss Ma claims that one time when the engine cut out when she was in traffic, she nearly crashed into another car. Miss Ma says she has tried to reach an agreement with the dealership, and BMW but both refuse to change her car for a new one, so she feels she was left with no other resort but to take her 5-series to the streets of Guangzhou, particulary outside the dealership from where she bought the defective car.
At lunch time, two traffic policeman appeared and asked Miss Ma to remove the lettering from the BMW.
Miss Ma later explained her choice of Ox to tow her stricken BMW “I wanted to use a horse, but horses move too quick.” A horse would be symbolic of the Chinese name for BMW, which is lit. ‘Treasure Horse’
Once the Ox and its 5-series train reached the BMW dealership where Miss Ma bought her motor, the workers in the dealership came out to look, people stopped to take a look at the commotion, which eventually forced the BMW dealerships manager to come out and say ‘We need to talk!’, and a few moments later Miss Ma reportedley had reached an agreement with the dealership to fix her 5-series.
The average superhero movie can be good, and even great. They are exciting and action packed mixed in with a little love and a happy ending. Batman does all of the above, but ten times better than any superhero movie I have ever seen.
The darkness of the movie is amazing. Spiderman 3 tried to do it with black Spidey, but really failed. The Dark Knight is a powerful, rich, scary character, yet still shows great compassion for every citizen. Heath Ledger as the Joker will win every award there is available because he was amazing. I don’t remember believing in a character as much as I did the Joker. I really believed the Joker was insane, and at times felt sorry for him.
The most obvious difference from other superhero movies is that the Dark Knight doesn’t just scratch the surface. It goes deeper, questioning humanity and its morals. I can honestly say the Dark Knight is one of the best movies I have ever seen, and destroys any superhero movie I have ever seen.
