Ambition (Hartley, 1991) IMDB Link Ambition is everything. The man goes to work, literally beating up people on his way. “No matter what I achieve, I always have this irritating sensation of emptiness and futility. I want to be awed by my own accomplishments. I want to be compared to great men. I want to change people’s minds, I want to set trends, destroy preconceptions. Be loved ...
Brüno (Charles, 2009) IMDB Link “I am going to be the biggest Austrian celebrity since Hitler.” The funniest thing about “Brüno” is not the jokes themselves, but the context of the joke. If the movie was fully scripted, it would have been eighty minutes of continuous gay jokes, and would not really have been that amusing. If the movie was Sacha Baron Cohen placing people in ...
Postal (Boll, 2007) IMDB Link “I get a little horny on here on stage sometimes. If you see the crowd and all that children.” Uwe Boll is known on the internet as breaking fan’s hearts for the video game adaptations he makes. I have not really watched any of his movies, but I have always been amused with the frantic anti-Boll sentiments online and Boll’s own showmanship, such as ...
Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy (MacFarlane, 2008) IMDB Link I don’t know how to review this. Have you seen “Family Guy”? Remember those small scenes which occur after a character says something like, “This reminds me of…”? Those scenes are usually unrelated to the main plot and are small, random jokes sprinkled throughout each episode. Created by Seth MacFarlane, “Cavalcade of Cartoon” ...
I'm embarrassed to say that I have missed this. But then it seems, in a way, the whole world did. When the Iranian protests exploded back in June, the eye of the world was on Iran. It was on the news, and the internet was buzzing with information about it. It seemed interesting that suddenly the world was interested in the internal struggles of the Iranian people. But you think. Why? Is it that ...

Six Feet Under: Season 1-5 (Alan Ball, 2001-2005) IMDB Link “I know that if you think life's a vending machine where you put in virtue and take out happiness than you're going to be disappointed.” I wonder if it is okay if I call “Six Feet Under” a very good soap opera. I know the latter has negative connotations attached to it, but “Six Feet Under” does have many of the features ...
Ong bak 2 (Tony Jaa, 2008) IMDB Link I’m a big supporter of Tony Jaa. I like to talk about him, whenever people discuss Jackie Chan and Jet Li. I go, pff, they are old, the new hip martial arts guy is Tony Jaa, people. Forget those grandpas. I was already a big fan of “Ong Bak” and “Tom yum goong” and took my friends with me to watch “Ong Bak 2” on the big screen. They need a bit of...
...Hahahahahaha! For guy to be product manager of a female vanity brand, ibig sabihin nun, ibang level dapat ang kapogian at kakinisan nya -- because the company could have given the brand to a pretty girl nalang, mas madali yun. But no, sa lalake talaga binigay. But come to think of it, this guy naman has always been rather hot. Sya yung tipo na even if you go back in time, isa parin talaga sya dun...
... mo. 6. Panalo yung line ko kay wes, "Trip ko someone who does things with a mind that is critical and a heart that is compassionate." Yung magdesisyon ka dahil nag-iisip ka, madali yun eh. Pero yung nagdedesisyon na ginagabyan ng pusong nakakaunawa, bihira yun. Yun yung masarap kakwentuhan about issues ng lipunan -- bago matulog. 7. Neat + Nice Smile. Comfortable kahit hindi nakaporma sa ...
