IRON MAN IN 5 MINUTES

FADE IN:

EXT. INSIDE AN APC CRUISING THROUGH AFGHANISTAN - DAY

TONY STARK is flirting with some SOLDIERS

		TONY STARK
	Hi, I'm Tony Stark. You might know me
	as Robert Downey Jr. and I'm perfect
	for this role because I'm an alcoholic.

		SOLDIERS
	OMG we're in the same van as Robert
	Downey Jr! Let's all fanboy him and do
	kawaii signs because we're idiots and
	we'll die within the next 3 minutes!

The APC in front of them explodes. The soldiers try to
protect TONY STARK the best way they could- by getting
killed and leaving TONY STARK to fend for himself.

We’ve all done it! Admittedly, I do. It’s among my fave pastimes in the internet: Googling my name, my family’s or somebody else’s name. It’s always interesting what one can find by Googling a familiar name. It’s even more surprising to find a name exactly the same as ours.

For Filipinos and I guess for people with Spanish lineage, it is very rare to find names that’s exactly theirs. Blame it on our parents who seemed to find pleasure in blessing us with 2 or more! I have 4 names (including my middle name, which is actually my mother’s maiden name) with Maria as the first name. My three other sisters have Maria for their first names as well and they have at least 2 more excluding our last name.

In America and most parts of the world, people have only one first name, a middle name (that is actually just any other name-not from their mother’s maiden name!) and a last name (which could be taken from the father’s or the mother’s). Most often, they would drop the middle name altogether and just use a first and last name as in James Smith, Charles Davis, or Jennifer Taylor. Much easier to Google and finding a match, isn’t it? Sure beats finding the exact person with the 4 names I have!

This guy from Los Angeles, Jim Killeen takes Googling his own name to the next level! He made it into a movie! It’s the latest buzzword now here in America, “Google Me”! Like you and me, he Googled his name and found a list of his namesakes. This lead to an idea of what if I track and meet these people? He did and thus transformed his remarkable journey from different parts of the world into a documentary-movie that premiered in YouTube last Friday.

“What do a cop, a swinger, an Irish priest, an engineer, a father of eight, an Aussie and a gambler have in common?” says the YouTube description. The documentary of course, stars 7 guys named Jim Killeen.

iron man week

Like all great movie trilogies, the second movie has to live up to the first, and maybe even try to surpass it. It also has to build the story and the conflict for the third movie’s awesome finish. On top of all that, it has to stand on its own. It has to be a strong enough movie so it won’t feel like just a bridge connecting two towers of AWESOME. That’s a lot of responsibility for a movie. Thank God this isn’t a movie. This is the second part of Cinemabuzz, Comicology, and Face Rockery’s collaborative list of the 15 Best Comic Book Movies of All Time! HAHAHAHAaaaiiineed a drink.

Now, before we start, make sure you’ve read the first part of the list over at Cinemabuzz. If you haven’t done that yet, please do so now. … Done? Awesome. Let’s go.

Bored Ka Na Ba? Manood ng Ploning!

  • Filed under: Movies
Monday
Apr 28,2008

If you’re looking for a great movie to watch this season, Ploning is a great movie to watch.

I was able to watch it last April 25, and it was just amazing. The last scenes had me bawling, and it wasn’t Gina Pareño’s tour de force moment of high drama.

What made the movie amazing were:

  • The cinematography.
  • Miss Judy Ann Santos’ subtle and alluring acting.
  • The beauty of Cuyo.
  • The fluidity of the story, the transitions, everything. It’s all like a dance!
  • How it sears you to the bone and yet leaves you with a light feeling.
  • It gives you something to think about.
  • It is NOT your usual Filipino film.

Looking for something to watch other than the usual brainless slapstick fare? Looking for a glimmer that Philippine Cinema is on the way to a renaissance? Ploning the Movie is one movie you shouldn’t let out of your list of movies to watch.

For more of what it was like, more incisive pre-showing and post-watching analyses, head on here.

A True Mean Girl Story

Friday
Apr 25,2008

mean girls week

To end Mean Girls Week, I think it’s appropriate if I share a mean girl story. A story plucked from my own retarded high school past. It’s not a story about skanky bitches calling everybody “sluts” and “whores”. It’s about high school drama, angst, and awkward silences. It’s about me being in jail with a girl named Vanessa.

I went to a Catholic school in Sta. Rosa, Laguna. Canossa School to be exact. A place were dreams are born and hearts are broken. A breeding ground for leaders, jocks, losers, artists, mean girls, and background dancers for noontime TV shows.

What if “So Fetch!” Happened?

mean girls week

Gretchen: That is so fetch!
Regina: Gretchen, stop trying to make fetch happen! It’s not going to happen!

Gretchen, Regina’s right hand bitch, tried to make “So fetch!” happen. She really did. But alas, it did not. Queen bee Regina’s antagonism didn’t help. But what if it did happen? This being Mean Girls Week, I feel that it’s my duty as a responsible blogger to ask and explore the question “What if So fetch! happened?”

Why I Love Narnia

Tuesday
Apr 22,2008

I first learned of the Chronicles of Narnia when I was in high school. If you’re a die-hard geek, there is this certain arrogance that you feel that tells you that since you ‘almost’ know everything, there is nothing more to it than intimidate people with those geeky jargons. And so when I heard of the Chronicles of Narnia, I was like, “Why would I read a book for kids? It’s too LOWLY for my taste.” Read more…

I like very much movies that talk about how a seemingly helpless individual who is gifted with a special mission can end up creating a change in his society. Examples of such movies are The Lord of the Rings, Happy Feet, and of course Robots. Read more . . .

mean girls week

To open this totally fabulous Mean Girls Week, I think it’s just appropriate that we start with a review of the Mean Girls DVD. Yes, I got weird looks when I bought it. No, I’m not gay (not that there’s anything wrong with that). I’m just an admirer of this often misjudged modern classic based on a self-help book for parents with no narrative whatsoever. Also, I have a thing for hot girls in pink.

Why the Terminator is Bittersweet

  • Filed under: Movies
Sunday
Apr 20,2008

The theme of The Terminator is something commonplace–pessimistic futurism, human induced everything-ends-in-chaos view of the world. You see this in Matrix also. The same theme (minus the high-tech) is in Mad Max, Waterworld…and other storylines. However, what makes The Terminator interesting is the use of the time travel concept. the concept itself is not new, but the way that it is used makes it interesting. Read more . . .

Hi again guys,I got to watch Nim’s Island last wednesday. ) It was either Nim’s Island or No Country. And I’m glad I watched the former instead of the latter. Well first, it’s perfect if you don’t want added stress from Oscar-winning depression. Haha. Yup that’s what I call the film No Country. Lest this becomes an account of No Country…I should start talking about Nim’s Island already.

A Geek movie review of 10,000 BC.

Monday
Feb 25,2008

Lately I’ve been spending more and more time playing in the arcade at SM San Lazaro. At first, I’d only plan on spending maybe a couple of tokens to play my two favorite games, Drum Mania and X-Men VS. Street Fighter. But then I’d get really drawn into the games, especially when someone challenges, so I end up spending my early morning and the whole afternoon playing there. By the way if you also play those games, let me warn you to not even dream of challenging me unless you want me to put shame on your miserable gamer ass.

The Return of Filipino Animation

Wednesday
Feb 20,2008

It’s been years since we last saw a full-length Filipino animation and that time we all reacted that it is not at par yet with American Cartoons, Japanese Anime, and the general Animation industry in the world. BUT, if we kept an open-mind back then, Filipino Animation releases (full-length or otherwise) becomes better and better for every release.

And you know what? This year we will be able to see the (as gamers say it) “bestest” of Filipino Animation has to offer. Want to see the trailers?

The high definition media war is finally over and Toshiba’s HD-DVD finally raises the white flag. Toshiba said it would stop promoting its HD DVD format for the next-generation DVD after losing the support of key studios and retailers to the Blu-ray technology backed by Sony.

Overall, 730,000 units were sold worldwide and majority is in the US which 300,000 of those are Xbox 360 HD DVD drives. Microsoft’s PR Team already sent out a statement regarding these developments and the rumors about an Xbox 360 Blu-ray add on.
