Cool Factor, The: A Guide to Achieving Effortless Style, with Secrets from the Women Who Have It

Product Information

Whatever the instincts that motorcycles awaken in you, it’s most likely they will forever be seen as the coolest of all forms of transportation, and it’s also one reason most bikers are bikers for life! These cars are painfully cool, hailing from a time when Mercedes build quality was the epitome of high-end automobile manufacturing. In Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, the fight sequences (long enough that you can consider the other scenes "non-fight sequences") consist entirely of "cool", and little to no realism. Just a few examples:

Just how did mercurion work in Str.A.In.: Strategic Armored Infantry? What is it? All we know is it's Green. Why was the special ship pink, and what was with the big arm... Well, it looked cool. Symbolic Serene Submersion— Some examples would require extreme Super Not-Drowning Skills, but they're cool enough to let it slide. Are those flaming chainsaw blade weapons of the Big Bad Jaeger in Pacific Rim: Uprising impractical? You bet they are, but they're wonderful to look at. Hellsing: Eldritch Abomination vampire serving the descendants of Abraham van Helsing versus a souped up exiled battalion of Ghostapo Nazi vampires who wage war for fun led by an Ax-Crazy SS- Major versus a secret catholic organisation and their crazy Catholic paladin.While we are all aware that speed can be dangerous and, if used in inappropriate places and situations, it can have disastrous results, it is one of the most appealing aspects of motorcycles.

But with typical humility, it soon knew that designer ‘edge’ doesn’t progress in remote, mountainous Saxony. Hence the establishment of Nomos’s design studio at ground zero for cool: east Berlin. Here, its unique modernism is painstakingly evolved at the hands of creative sorts with angular haircuts, fuelled by artisan coffee and avocado on rye. This seminal hardman was conceived in the same year as our other plastic-fantastic cool cat, the Swatch – but while the Swiss were pioneering precision injection moulding, the Japanese were striving to pass their own self-conceived ‘triple 10’ test: water resistance to 10 bar (about 100m), a 10-year battery life, and most importantly, the ability to survive a 10 metre drop onto a hard surface, unscathed and working perfectly. Transformers: There is no other reason for these films to exist or for anyone to watch them except that Giant Transforming Robots are inherently cool. It could be argued that Michael Bay's career rests on taking a premise and making it cool. Compare The Power of Index, Cool of Rule, Rule of Funny, Rule of Scary, Rule of Drama, Rule of Romantic, Rule of Cute, Masculinity Tropes, Garnishing the Story, Dramatic Dangling.In the same vein, DOUBLE K, the buddy cop version of the anime, combines how Rule Of Cool driven both types of shows are. Outside of motoring enthusiasts few are likely to know what an Avantime is, while inside an Avantime you will find captain’s chairs and a ‘global open’ button that opens all four windows and the panoramic sunroof at the same time, making this pillarless coupe-cum-people-carrier an open-air luxury cruiser Appleseed the fight scenes in second CGI movie ("Appleseed Ex Machina"), which opens and closes with combat sequences that would make a Cirque du Soleil-trained Green Beret turn flushed with jealousy and admiration. The 2000 GT is often compared to Jaguar’s E-Type, at least in coupe form, because both models come with swoopy styling and are quite well suited to grand touring. Even so, Toyota didn’t merely copy what the Brits were doing. For example, Toyota used a relatively modest 2.0-litre in-line six-cylinder engine taken from another model in its range: the Crown saloon.

This notion was the central focus of Underworld (2003). This is a world where vampires are at constant war with werewolves. Later V8 models had up to 350hp, but the Esprit was such a light car (the S1 barely tipped over 900kg) that a 2.2-litre Turbo will have all the performance you could ask for, while bringing less complication. 5. Cord 810 The year 1969 was a big one: not only did NASA and Seiko respectively take Omega’s Speedmaster to the Moon and quartz technology to the market, but the self-winding chronograph was finally realised – twice. Arguably, the post was pipped by Zenith and its immortal El Primero, but Heuer (along with Breitling and Büren) was the first to industrialise its own “world-first” automatic stopwatch, the Calibre 11 sooner. A superb high-speed grand tourer with hugely absorbent and comfortable hydro-pneumatic suspension, the SM was unlike anything that had come before, and its style has never been repeated. 9. Alpine GTAThere is no doubt that motorcycles are viewed as cool, and motorcycle manufacturers perpetuate that image because it is good for business. However, this point is irrelevant to the bikers who have already been hooked by these fantastic machines themselves and developed an affinity to the lifestyle and sense of freedom that motorcycles bring. The Matrix: The premise involves robots imprisoning humans into a computer generated Platonic Cave. However, most of the series involves rebellious philosophers in Badass Longcoats fighting artificially-intelligent Agent programs in corporate attire, all through Martial Arts. In Slow Motion. It also helps that the Wachowski sisters' inspiration for creating the trilogy was Anime. We include the third-generation Riviera firstly because of its striking ‘boat tail’ rear, and partly because it is so evocative of the glorious excesses of 1970s American car design. Synchro is the ultimate doubles technique, during which doubles partners enter a trance-like state and are perfectly in tune with each other... and their eyes become swirling vortexes of color.
