Theater in your Watch

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

There is no scarcity of new entries to the world of entertainment. Having said this, I have the unique home-theater offering for you right at your wrist. Other might consider you insane seeing you smiling while looking into your watch. But the very knowledge about the functionality of the Home-theatre watch can put them into [...]

Watching Tom

Monday, October 27th, 2008

People can say whatever they want about him and I won’t care. He’s not the greatest actor out there, but he does have depth. In my book, Tom Cruise movies make one hell of a viewing experience!
One of Hollywod’s good comedy movies was also Tom’s biggest break, Risky Business. The 1983 film had Tom playing [...]

Why so serious

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

So does the Joker’s famous statement along with some other wicked lines in the movie “The Dark Knight”. Watching the pure two and a half hour of action, wit and flawless entertainment, the Batman sequel takes a deep dive into one of movie’s iconic psychopathic villain hiding under an ironically scary clown make-up, green hair [...]

Poochaz’s View on the Dark Knight

Friday, September 19th, 2008

 

If I am to bet which movie of the Batman franchise is the greatest of all time, my hat goes to Batman Begins. And it’s not because Christian Bale’s take on the role is much edgier than Keaton’s, Kilmer’s and Clooney’s. The scriptwriting and the story line are at its best.
Most of the previous [...]

Punisher: War Zone Coming Soon

Friday, September 19th, 2008

While The Punisher is one of my favorite superheroes minus the super powers, The Punisher movie is a shame, hands down. Blame it on bad acting, bad script, and bad overall film management. The movie and the unborn film franchise undoubtedly needs redemption. Of course, it takes another actor, another director, and another plot to [...]

Voltron is in The Works

Friday, September 19th, 2008

Another great news for people who still have the hangover of 1980’s animation! The TV cartoon hit Voltron: Defender of the Universe is finally in the works to have its own film adaptation. A lot of people (adults, male adults, mind you) have been talking about the prospect of having the 5 Lion robots on [...]

On Voltron

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

The Voltron movie is currently in the works. That gives anyone who still has the hangover for the 1980s robots era a reason to celebrate. The Voltron movie is about the 5 mechanical lions that are stashed away secretly and eventually discovered by 5 individuals who survived an alien invasion. How the story goes is [...]

Indie Movies

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

I love watching independent films. However, since I came home to Cagayan de Oro, I haven’t had the chance to really watch the new ones since there is no alternative film venue in the city.
One of the newest Filipino indie movies that I find interesting is Baron Geisler’s Jay. Baron, his director Francis Pasion, and [...]

Two Movies: 21 and Cloverfield

Monday, July 7th, 2008

Two of the movies that have made a great impact on me received mixed reviews from film critics and moviegoers. I don’t mind their views, though. I read reviews but I refuse to let them dictate my views of a particular movie. After all, we have different reasons for wanting and hating something.
21
Prior to watching [...]

The Not-So-Incredible Hulk

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

It’s summertime in the Western Hemisphere once again, and you know what that means: It’s time for big-budget superhero movies to be hitting theater screens and taking our hard-earned money.
Actually, the summer movie season started off, albeit unofficially, with Jon Favreau’s Iron Man, which pleasantly turned out to be one hell of a superhero movie, [...]
