Madame Tussauds

A scheduled visit to Madame Tussauds - the world renowned wax museum went on smoothly. We get some nice offers through Burger King, which is a half price discount for adults. We also gave the leftover coupons to the people queuing behind us. ^^ We are the first in line. Hooray?

The first room just after the elevator is the room filled with Hollywood Stars, from tween stars to those cool old guys. Many famous actors and actresses had themselves immortalised here. The girls preferred Robert Pattison more tho. I took pictures with George Clooney, Will Smith, John Travolta, Johnny Depp, Morgan Freeman and Tom Cruise among others.

The room that follows have the actors (and actresses) in their movie characters, such as Robert Downey, Jr in his Sherlock Holmes and Whoopi Goldberg (the one actress I took picture with) in her Sister's Act. There are also Jim Carrey, Marilyn Monroe, Harrison Ford, Steven Spielberg and Bollywood's Bachan.

Then, there's a room dedicated to scientists and artists. Among notable names in the science field here are Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin, Isaac Newton and Stephen Hawking. In sports, there are those footballers I am not a fan to, the famous US sprinter Jesse Owens, boxer Muhammad Ali and other personalities.

After that, we got to a room with superstars such as Beyonce Knowles and Michael Jackson. In the same room, there are also the Noble Prize winners - Pope John Paul II, Dalai Lama, Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu and Gandhi. Prime Ministers of UK and Obama follows.

Just before leaving this room, it's my favourite displays of "baddies". I just love these enemies of the west, or maybe just US. Yasser Arafat, Fidel Castro, Hitler and Saddam Hussein. Lastly, I hugged a wax statue of Richard Branson (I forgot which camera I used).

Other figures include Princess Diana, head of Marie Antoinette, Spiderman and Jessica Alba in Fantastic Four. Other than the display of wax statues, there is also this description of the process of making it and story of Madame Tussauds.

There is also a ghost trail which scares the fuck out of the girls. =.= I really don't understand them. How can someone be scared if one prepared for it? There's a taxi ride that bring us back through times discovering the history of England.

The tour ends with a 4D movie about Marvel heroes saving British asses. Just a normal movie albeit some water spraying and poking. =.= I did not get any souvenir as it was quite expensive. But we all bought a group photos of us with spidey. ^^
