There’s an upcoming movie this April starring Ali Larter (Heroes, Resident Evil) and Beyonce Knowles (you know her), which seems like the kind of movie I wanna watch. Simply because I wanna know some things that the trailer never tell yet.

Have you seen the latest Edition of Fast and the Furious yet or any previous installation parts of it? Or at least the trailer? I’m sure it’s not all about the actors or the story why you like those movies, but the car and the race and the intense and the excitement. What am I talking about… forget it…

Honey will not be caught dead watching a Filipino movie. But he is still in Cambodia and I and my three old friends had nothing to do one Sunday afternoon a few weeks ago. Perfect timing. I can be as jologs as I want and I have a jolly-ogs good time. So off the four of us (myself, two manangs and one son of a manang – who tagged along with us under threat of loss of allowance by his mother) went to Gateway to watch A Very Special Love, the romantic comedy movie of John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo.

To protect their kasosyalan (or so they think), ;) I am not disclosing the names of my friends (they all have dignified positions with decent employers and the son studies in a posh school). Myself… well, I can’t deny it any longer… I’m simply as jologs as can be.

Nonetheless, when we were queuing up in Gateway, we looked around surreptitiously to check if there were any media people waiting in ambush after we leave the theater to interview us about our rave reviews to be broadcast in the evening news or worse, The Buzz. Thankfully, there were none. Darn… secretly, I was prepared with my line which would have gone like this.. “Ang galing-galing ni Sarah! Ang guapo-guapo ni John Lloyd! Aaaaaaaaaaah!” with matching jumping up and down and clapping my hands in glee. Anyway, since there were no media people around at that time, I’ll just say it here – “Ang galing-galing ni Sarah! Ang guapo-guapo ni John Lloyd!” (jumping up and down and clapping my hands in glee).

Just awhile ago me and my hubby just finished watching “Twilight” at SM City Cebu. Well, frankly speaking the movie didn’t impress me — I was expecting the middle earth war D , on the other hand, the crowd really interest me — It was like watching together with a few hundreds of teens and kids.

Twilight soon in CEBU

I just read Stephanie Meyer’s 2nd book, NEW MOON and I’m almost finished with her 3rd one, ECLIPSE. Soon, I will be caught on her 4th book, Breaking Dawn. I think I have found a new drug that is making me addicted! Reason that I have not kept a balance diet in taking my breaks to munch something edible. EDWARD CULLEN and BELLA SWAN, the two main characters of her books are the culprits of why I forgot myself to the real world of work! It’s so bizarre that it affected me so much that I call every appealing guy I see, Edward! Why vampires do permeate into my hypothalamus?! I’m hallucinating! Damn, can someone slap me?!

When will it be showing? Check it here.

Are you a fan of this young adult vampire/romance novel written by author Stephenie MeyerTwilight. A few of my office mates are, and in fact they’ve been asking me to blog about it also. Well I think I can do more than just blogging. Why not create a community of “twilighters” here in the Philippines — Twilight fansite? I know this is a good story and for sure more and more young adult will love to have one community here in Philippines —- I just hope I’m right.

It’s Halloween and it’s the last day of Zombie DVD Week! What better way to end this most spooktacular event than with the movie that pushed zombie movies back into the public consciousness? An instant cult classic, I just have to pay my respects to Shaun of the Dead.

Halloween is a few days away, so leave it to me to celebrate it the whole week by reviewing 3 zombie movies. That’s right. All 3 DVDs I’ll be talking about this week have “of the Dead” in their title. If you ask me, all movies should have “of the Dead” in their title. “Tropic Thunder of the Dead”. “Body of Lies of the Dead”. “High School Musical of the Dead”. I can do this all day. But I digress. Let’s begin Zombie DVD Week, shall we?

If you want a taste of Frankenstein and Mad Scientists, of monsters and musicals, of a gloomy but funny story, of Jaqueline and Heidi (yes that’s Jekkyl and Hyde for you), of a sudden feeling of Schadenfreude, of Annie the musicale and hypnotic machines, well you shouldn’t miss Igor.

Igor is the recently acclaimed comedy digital animated film about a life of an Igor (If you haven’t watched Frankenstein, Igor is the popular sidekick guy portrayed as an assistant of Dracula or Frankenstein). PULL ZE SWITCH!

I wanna drift! I wanna drift! I wanna drift!

I always wanted to learn how to drift (watch the trailer and you’ll know why). In fact, I just learned how to drift in the Daytona USA 1 arcade game. A friend of mine taught me after losing several races to him. It’s quite easy; the secret is to know the map, you must know when to drift and when to just turn. In Daytona USA 1, the best map to practice drifting is the advanced map, then select manual transmission. When you’re about to turn shift to gear number 1 and turn the steering wheel towards the direction you want to turn. When you turn to that direction shift to 3rd gear then to 4th gear. Easy right?

But this post isn’t about drifting. It’s about KL drift.

If you have watched Eagle Eye like me in a cinema, you’ve been probably drained by the rush of excitement taking you at the edge of your seat. I fortunately watched this film in a new cinema in SM City Marikina, where quite a few watched it. I’m here to tell you why this is a movie really worth watching, especially if you want that geeky brain to feel a rush of cold water.

Because I’m not into writing anniversary statements these days unlike before, I leave this repost of an entry from my former blog to commemorate the imposition of martial law 36 years ago:

Orapronobis as directed by Lino Brocka, is a film that tackles the awful human rights situation in the country during the Aquino administration.

While the portrayal of the Philippine condition won it critical acclaim abroad, the film never got shown in public theaters in the country at all.

An article (some parts have been left off for the purpose of brevity) from the circa 1980 alternative magazine MIDWEEK explains why:

Love of Siam

Tuesday
Sep 2,2008

Through the ages of mankind, the topic of LOVE is always been a favorite preference of any piece or work of art! It’s because LOVE is one of the foundation why we keep breathing and living in this world full of surprises. No matter what medium it is conveyed, the theme of love always moved people. It’s powerful and it’s domineering.

I stumbled one time reading comments on some sites and learned that many Rainbow advocates and supporters had watched the movie: Love of Siam. It is a Thai romantic-drama film. There is one scene that is a focal point of controversy (watch video below). It is simply a gay teen romance of two teenage boys (Mario Maurer as Tong and Witwisit Hiranyawongkul as Mew) but the film’s story revolves around the value of friendship, loving and being loved, family’s quest for unity of a loss member, separation and loneliness, identity crisis amidst affection, obedience of a son and protection of a mother, camaraderie and understanding of friends, musical talent and how gifted the young of today, infatuations and unrequited admirations as part of teen life, the many diversities of emotions, and of course, the right to choose the kind of sexual preference you want to live.
