Click or Ex-Girlfriend?

Decisions.. We make one almost every minute if not every second of the day. One good example would be "What movie to watch on a great weekend?" First choice.. "My Super Ex-Girlfriend". The trailer wasn't that fantastic, but suggests to be a hilarious one.. A break from the bombarding wave of Super-Hero movies. Then "Click" an Adam Sandler film which should be unforgettable like "50 First Dates".. Joan and I both love Adam Sandler movies. But the decision was quite easy for us this time.. Because we can't really take the smell of the cinema in Greenhills Theater Mall even though the fire was way over and the smell should have subsided already.. one can still smell the residue of the burnt smell all over the cinema.. So it's "Super E-G" at the Promade that Saturday then. A hilarious kinda cheesy movie.. Lots of laughs and some "green humor" on the side. An ice-breaker after all the disappointing movies this year. An oridary guy.. falling in-love with an ordinary girl.. then dumping the girl-friend as the secret super-hero identity was revealed. So.. What happens after the Super Ex-girlfriend says "You will regret this!" Something no man would like to imagine.

Sunday came.. Me, my brother and sister decided to watch "Click" at Mall of Asia after hearing raves from our cousin Jordan. A typical American father.. Too busy with work.. Skipping quality time with his family was given a chance to own a Universal Remote Control that will give him the power to control time. Watch Adam Sandler's character "Michael" pause, forward, rewind, and play life like one would do while watching TV. Just don't forget to bring your handkerchief as the movie evolves from comedy to drama towards the end. Havnen't cried like this since "Mano Po 3". TWO GREAT MOVIES! YOU MUST NOT MISS!

Celebrating my 27th Year on Earth!

Growing old never fails to amaze me.. Discovering new things.. Unraveling myself.. and most of the times.. just having fun while I take on the challenge of living life as I know it. It really is fun to be Logan at 27. But how does a Logan spend his birthday? Hmmmm.. I woke up 6 AM.. with a few greetings already in my k500i's inbox. Went to xavier to work on Xavier's website section links.. Met with Joan to attend the christening of Mac's daughter.. Went home.. Got a few more greetings.. Watched "Let's Go" took a short nap before going to our Tutees reunion. It was a typical Saturday for me.. I wasn't even excited anymore.. Missed those days where I always anticipate what will happen on my birthday.. well.. those are the perils of being 27 I guess... No more fancy children's party.. no more gifts.. no more birthday cakes to blow.. just another day!

Ang poging-poging birthday boy!

The Tutees reunion.. Coincidentally fell on day of my birthday.. and most probably.. a semi birthday party for me too.. We had our get together at Viv's place in Corinthians this time.. Pot-luck.. we had Chicken, pancit malabon, sushi platter, cakes, baked macaroni.. etc.. Too bad Ferdinand who's birthday also falls on that exact same day wasn't able to come.. But well.. I really enjoyed the night with my tutor mates, my cousins, my sister, and ofcourse with Joan. Joan made that night extra special for me.. Just being with me together with my friends. We sang our hearts out using Viv's upgraded karaoke system.. singing songs like "Barbie Girl" by Aqua to "Hanggang Kailan" by Orange and Lemons". Old friendships rekindled.. everybody had fun.. Thansk Viv for organizing this wonderful reunion. And to all my friends who greeted me that day.. Thank you! Another year is coming my way.. I'm glad all of you became part of the fantastic 27 years I lived.

SUKOB: Re-inventing the Filipino Horror

A so called "sequel" of the blockbuster hit "Feng-Shui". The much anticipated local movie of the year is the horror flick I have been waiting for. Chito Rono once again proved that filipino film-making can challenge hollywood films by making an intelligent film like "SUKOB". I really do hope it was shown in cinemas like Greenhills, Podium, Power Plant, Greenbelt, or even I-MAX.. But well.. The prejudice on Filipino films has yet to transide.. but what the hell.. Gateway or Mall of Asia would be a great choice to watch SUKOB.. But we're in Robinson's Galleria anyway.. so tiis nalang.

I don't want to narrate my long list of rants on the Robinsons cinema anymore.. maybe another posting cause it's going to be very very long.. I will focus on the movie first. After watching SUKOB.. contrary to what others say that "Feng Shui" is better.. It is one of the best Filipino movie for me, after "Halimaw sa Banga".. Was waiting forever for somebody to come up with an interesting plot, grand cinematography, great sound editing, and fantastic lighting.. SUKOB gave me all that.. It's not just a horror film.. but a film we Filipinos can be proud of.. so much better than Feng Shui.. Two thumbs up to Chito Rono.

Was the movie really scary? hmmmmm... not! There were moments that you would probably feel goose bumps.. but the momentum would suddenly stop and will keep you waiting for what's next.. that's the formula I think the movie had that really got my eyes literally fixed on the movie screen. The mixture of culture, horror, suspense, and drama was best portrayed by the actors. Claudine Barreto after "Nasaan Ka Man" did really good in SUKOB. Was a little disappointed with Kris' but in fairness.. She did justice to the role.. Maja Salvador was at par with Claudine's calliber.. and the rest of the cast were perfect for the role. A must see movie.. visit http://www.sukobthemovie.com/ for more info.

KC's Birthday!

I already have 3 inaanaks.. But I couldn't remember any of their birthdays.. Hahahhaha! Was surprised Alona invited me to attend KC's Birthday party at Jollibee Retiro.. It was sort off short-notice but.. I was able to squeeze it in my schedule.. and ofcourse.. I brought my Camera. Feeling official photographer, I documented most if not all parts of the party. From the games to the candle blowing. Everybody enjoyed the party.. Too bad Maybelle wasn't able to join us.. Jeniffer together with Emerson and AJ (another one of my inaanak) also came.. Thank you Allona for inviting me to this cool party! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KC!
