pamilya ordinaryo

What happens when the predator becomes prey? Kapag ang mga kriminal ang naging biktima? Kapag ang magnanakaw ang ninakawan? Pinanood ko ang Pamilya Ordinaryo at ang mga tanong kong ito ay nasagot. This Cinemalaya entry shows us a story already unfolding before our eyes outside the cinema, but we're too busy with Pokemon Go and sharing Duterte articles on Facebook like the keyboard warriors that we are. Wow ang bigat agad!

WARNING: Super spoilers, halos nakwento ko na ang buong movie. Read only...

tuos

First things first: Spoiler alert! Don't read if you plan to watch the movie :) The last thing I want is for someone to read this and ruin the experience for them. Or change someone's mind about watching, dahil na-spoil ko na lahat. Also, if you're looking for a real movie review, try somewhere else. Balak ko lang talagang magkwento kasi nag-enjoy ako sa panonood.

In short, basahin mo lang ito kung wala ka talagang balak manood LOL.

Ano ang ibig sabihin ng tuos? I think it's one of those words...

radyo

Isang tahimik at mapayapang Linggo, sumakay ako ng taxi. Sa aking pag-upo, agad-agad binuksan ni Kuya ang radyo. Ang programa ay isang news report na typically ay paboritong pakinggan ng mga taxi drivers. But no, ibahin natin si Kuya, dahil biglang inilipat niya sa ibang station. Gusto ko sana sabihing Kuya, doon na lang uli sa news pero sa wakas, nakapagdesisyon si Kuya na isang drama program ang pakikinggan naming dalawa.

Nagnanarrate ang DJ noong oras na yun. Nagbabasa sya ng isang liham ng...

apple quality program

Today I’m doing a little "public service" post specifically for Macbook Pro users. To be more specific, Macbook Pro 15-inch users. To be even more specific, Macbook Pro 15-inch bought in 2011 to 2013. I’m not sure if there are many of us, and if there are, I’m also not sure if you've had the same problem/solution. First, let me tell you a story, but if you don’t have the time, just skip to the bottom of this post.

I bought this laptop in 2011 after being urged by an officemate. I’m not into ga...

ma' rosa

As always, I’m gonna pretend to be a serious movie critic just to piss off readers because, you know, may time and energy ako na gawin yan. This time, ang napili kong imassacre ay ang Ma’ Rosa, I'm sure you've heard of it. Jaclyn Jose won Best Actress at the Cannes film festival for her role in it. If you haven't seen it... go see it, or not. Hind kita didiktahan sa buhay mo.

Right off the bat, I’ll say it: I love this film, this is my kind of thriller movie. Thriller talaga? All the bashing a...

cheese boi

Saturday morning and I'm on my way home from a long night’s hard work. It’s a cold, dark morning, thanks to the stormy weather. I take a cab with three workmates, and as we speed through EDSA, we catch a glimpse of a naked, dead man lying on the middle of the road, surrounded by cops on the wet pavement. Puta parang may #sinalvage ohmygod!

Seriously, I just wanna go home and watch color TV. A corpse is not part of my weekend plans. But I’m only human, and these things affect me. Ito na ba yung...

the conjuring 2

Based on true events daw so this is 100% real and legit. The Conjuring 2. Featuring the husband and wife tandem of Ed and Lorraine Warren, from The Conjuring 1. I'd like to think they are also in the same universe as Insidious, Annabelle and Saw. It's all James Wan right?

May I just say right now, this film  is dark. And I mean dark as in the MADILIM sense of dark. Ang dilim. Ang dilim talaga. Parang budhi mo jk. Uy joke lang.

Spoilers ahead!

The movie opens with the Warrens investigat...

shocking!!! jk this is clickbait

Hey Kids. I wasn't really gonna say anything. But then again this is my blog and I just got the annual invoice for my domain, so I might as well post as much stuff as I want. This isn't really a typical post, it's more of a reaction to my previous post, that X-Men Apocalypse movie review. Or should I say, movie "review". Or more specifically, this is about the comments I received. This is a reaction to the reactions. Reaction-ception.

Let me focus on the negative ones.

Just to put everything in...

movie review: x-men apocalypse

Hahaha it's so funny! Don't get me wrong, I love the X-Men franchise. I love the comic books. I love the cartoons, na madalas maging sanhi ng pag-aaway namin ng Tatay ko noon. I waited for this film ever since I saw that scene after the Days of Future Past credits. And so I watched as soon as I can. And I enjoyed it. But it's so funny!

(This post is full of spoilers, if you care)

OK sisimulan ko itong review with an observation. Sigurado ako, napansin nyo rin: mukhang may sakit si Apocalypse. R...

eleksyon 2016

If there's anything I learned in the whole duration of the 2016 Philippine elections, it's that Filipinos have absolutely no chill. #Agit kung #agit (agit = agitated). Tempers are lost over the littlest things, magsimula sa registration hanggang sa elections. Lahat ng makita, ikinaka-offend. Lahat ng mabasa, pinapatulan. Makanti nang konti, nanggigigil sa galit.

Isa ako sa mga taong piniling magrehistro sa pinakahuling araw ng registration, because katamaran. Aware naman ako sa mahabang panah...
