X-Men First Class Movie Review

Me and Ryan, my movie buddy decided to watch this movie. However to our dismay, there was no 3D in the cinema. My friend asked why and the teller only said to us that its because it’s a super blockbuster movie. Honestly when I heard that, I was thinking “if its super blockbuster, then why not have it 3D? Geez”. So we got the movie in 2D screen. I was not hoping to have a good experience cause I was really expecting to watch this in 3D. But I was wrong.

Though, the movie was not in 3D it was still amazing. Actors were very good. Everything was very well-thought of. It lives up to its title “First Class” because this movie shows the start. You might be wondering some of the characters are not really found in the succeeding XMEN series however they still build up a good story. Some scenes are breathtaking and makes you want to ask for more.

There are just a few parts that I don’t really like. First off was the way Alex Summers releases his power. He is like playing a holla-hoop. Second, I am no expert in Aerodynamics, but I don’t think the part where Banshee grabs Havoc at the Marine Ship and flies off without problems. If you look closely at his wings, its somehow clipped slightly but his movements in flying was not affected. This is somehow absurd, his wings are vital on his flight. Based on how I see it after picking Havoc, the flight would be disastrous cause his right wing was not at full span giving it an unbalance pressure and would result to whirl-like movement of the flying body. However, this was not taken into consideration and was ignored all throughout. Third, I don’t like the director’s idea on focusing Magneto’s facial expression every time he uses his power. I think there are best way of portraying or showing his power without making the cam face to him with his dirty hangs pointing at me. But anyways, I enjoyed the movie.

After the movie, you will say to yourself “That’s explains everything”. This is a good feedback since the movie not only live up to be amazing but also was coherent with its other series. And that made it as one of the best movies of the month.

Well, I couldn’t give it a 4 right? Hehe..

I’ll be giving this one 4.5 star on my 5-point scale rate!

Kung Fu Panda 2 Movie Review

I was so eager to watch this one since the previous was pretty good. Good thing a friend of mine invited me to watch this at the Cinema in 3D!.. WOhoo!.. I did not care that almost 90% of the movie goers were Kids! wahha. Hearing their laughters as it echoes in the entire cinema, one cant help but laugh also. So here's my review:

Film animation was pretty neat. If I had to rate it in 5-point scale, I am giving it a 3. The scenery and the characters are detailed which gives you an iimpression that they are somehow real. But the movie doesn't maximize the full potential of 3D animation. I may not have seen the 2D but I think its still as good as the 3D.

On the concept, I dont know if any one is familiar with Tai Chi. Cause I think the Kung Fu that Po intended to learn was tai chi. In the movie, I think this was not properly executed. If you look closely in the fighting scenes esp the last part, it may appear as tai chi based on his body stance and movement at first but becomes different once he receive the attack. It should have been good if the director accounts the proper execution of this kung fu. A reference might be the Kung Fu Hassle or Shaolin Soccer. But aside from this, its fun to watch.

The story in the movie deals mostly on Po's past. From the previous movie, one might wonder why He got a goose father when in fact he is a panda. Well you will know why he got that one. Grading the story in 5-point scale, I am giving it 3. The score is based on the fact that this movie unveils the character's past and gives enlightenment to the current scenario. There is also a portayal of relationship like father and son, comraderie and a little part for lovers :D. There is a tear-jerker scene in the movie so bring handkees :D whaha. Another interesting part in the end of the movie that signals for a possible sequel.

Overall, it was not as great as the previous one but still it was fun watching it. Though, the rating was not that high but compare to the other movies for this week, its worth watching..

Battle: Los Angeles Review

Comment:

I remember Transformer which storyline sucks but this sucks even more. The invading aliens are like dumb octopuses or somehow related to the terminator. The whole movie was about bullets and bombs flying around with no fixed target. If you love fireworks , falling concretes, mosquito-like vehicles they call drones, or command center that seems like a merged of all scrap metal with no definite structure.. then watch this..

Rating: 1 Star

Overall Impact: A mini story stretched to almost 2 hours with guns and dumb aliens with guns!

Here's the link of the movie:

Love Letter III

Hi..

its never been easy to say things like this. Its not that I never saw this coming but I've been trying to do my best to ignore these kind of things. I was hoping up until now things will still work out between us. However, I am afraid it isn't. You dont have to lie anymore by saying "Everything is fine between us". I no longer need to pretend that we are Okay eventhough we are not. I know we've tried hard on this. But things are not working right.

So, eventhough it breaks my heart to say this, I am letting you go. I am not giving up on you. I've always wanted you to be happy even if it means you leaving me. I know God knows I want you so bad to stay. But you're happiness comes first than mine.

I just want you to know how much I treasure every moment we had. You know I'll do anything for you. It will be hard getting over someone like you but I'll try my best. I hope you will be fine as well now without me by your side.

Though its painful to say good bye, but I have to.. I love you.. I hope you felt that. I wish you happiness, Good bye..

In View of My Faith: The People of Hell

So I just finished reading some crap in the net about a girl who claimed to be in Hell and Heaven through Jesus' guidance and aide. There was a long "blah blah" narrations about it in the article however what upsets me is when I read about people in Hell. I dont have that much knowledge about Pope John Paul II. I aint even an avid follower of him. But to put him in Hell in that article because of like teaching people wrong things. That make me say "Hey! You're hitting below the belt. He is dead". And she said Jesus lead her to Selena who was in agony of the fires of hell pleading that people should stop singing her songs. I searched the net out of enthusiasm just to stumble on some freak gossips about her songs that had Black Magic on it. And parents are not encouraging their children to listen to it. I aint an avid of this woman. But this is unfair. I mean geez lets get some logical sense here. If it is true that it had black magic on it, the caster is dead. And if those are spells in it, magic doesnt work on ignorant people unless they are being controlled of or made aware of it. So that means, those words will just words. Get it?. I know a lot have different views of faith or God in general. We are all lost sheeps and our Shepherd is somewhere that we need to figure out where. I just cant stand my co-sheeps dragging me where to go by destroying other sheeps. Thats insane! We are reading the same book but we cant even get into a unified conclusion of it. I dont oppose any unless they are ILLOGICAL, INHUMANE or IRRATIONAL. I believe in what they call God, the creator. He who governs everything from dust to the biggest rock, from bacteria to whales, from air to outspace.. It is HIM. I hate discussing faith by saying your wrong cause NO ONE can tell you its right or wrong. NONE but only HE who governs everything. I dont know who is right but hope that some people will stop saying bad to other people esp when they are dead. They have their own way of seeing GOD and have done things in their outmost capability to live through it.

i know its pretty difficult to use our eyes to see through things in life.. thats why we got brains to think and heart to feel.. and most of all the mouth for comfort, hands to give strength and protection and feet for moving on.. God is with us when we make use the best of everything we have for others and for His Glory..

Far From You

" I wish I could go far away from you,

Far enough to love you and for you to let me go "

Love Letter II

How have you been? I've haven't seen you quite a long time. I don't really intend to trouble you by this letter. I know it has been hard for you, for both of us. I can never compensate the pain that I had caused you. Sorry may not compensate the pain that haunts your heart now. But may it open your heart for forgiveness. I don't intend to beg that from you but I hope you try just for old time sake. Some things came clear to me now that we are far apart. And looking at you this far made me realize one thing which I should have thought when we were still together that you are one of the greatest things that ever happen to me. The only thing I ever regret is that we did not made it and that I hurt you. May you find the one that could renew your hope in love. And hope that someone would treasure you, a thing I failed to do. I wish you well always. Take care and Goodbye.

a little more far

I still feel you though you are so faraway,

Hope I could run a little more farther;

Just to forget the pain when you wont stay,

And letting you go couldn't be harder.

Chosen Fate

if I could write every word my heart speaks for you,

a million words may not be enough,

I could only put it in rhyme with my soul,

To unveil to you my true love

No matter how long i have to wait,

No matter what pain I had to taste,

I would bear it all without haste,

For being with you is my chosen fate

quotes from me

"they say love is immeasurable and that no scale that exists in this world that could bound the greatness and mysteries of love. All we could do is deal with approximations which itself are very far from what love is."

"Love is a thing that we cant mold into our own perspective. Rather, it is the only thing that exists in this world that is above order and reason that defines its nature beyond our own understanding."

Seeing the difference

Now it is june.. School starts and meeting now friends or hanging out with old ones :D.. Well, I missed school quite a bit. I want to make things serious in my academic life. I intend that this school year is my last. I don't have plans to stay longer. It would only make me look a lot worst than a loser :D Anyways, on the start of a new journey, I can see somethings had changed. I hangout to fewer people now. Since most of them had graduated already and had jobs or had chose to stay home. But it was fine though. I am not that sad but its kind of a weird feeling. I can also sense the difference to my emotional state with respect to that PERSON compared to the few years back. I was glad to finally my system is starting to get rid of the feeling I had once. This is a new start for me. And this time, I want to be goal-oriented and be the best I could. 

Love Letter

Para sa Minamahal,
Di ko alam kong kailan ka darating sa buhay ko pero mag-aantay parin ako. Di ko rin alam kong ano ang magiging hitsura mo pero alam kong makikilala ka nang puso ko. Wag mo sanang alalahanin ang kalagayan ko kasi hanggat di kita makakasama pipilitin kong lampasan lahat ng pagsubok sa buhay ko. Kung sakali mang di man tayo magkita, iisipin mo lage na nasasayo parin ang puso ko. Kahit baguhin man ng panahon ang daloy ng buhay ko, sayo parin liligaya ng tunay tong puso ko. Sana abutin ka ng sulat. Sana ingatan ka ng May Kapal. Hanggat sa oras na tayo'y magkasama, aantayin kita, mahal ko.

Laging sayo,
Ang Nagmamahal...

being trapped in a relationship

This is not an unusual problem. A lot of early couples are experiencing this kind of issue. Trapped in the sense that the person in that relationship feels no future in their relationship. But he/she cant give up that person because his/her partner still holds on to them. And the partner is still believing that they can still make it.

It really sucks to be into something that is not working well. Honestly and open communication between partners really helps . The hardest part is taking the risk by deciding to let go and holding on to the decision for the better good. Ignoring wont drive this away cause a time will come that it would be a lot harder to fix the problem.

A lot of people experiencing this thinks that letting go or forcing their other partner to break their relationship is being cruel to their partner. Specially when they see that their partner is trying his/her best in holding on.

But this is not the case, it doesn't mean that if the other one is trying to make ends meet in your relationship. Then everything would turned out to be fine. THe issue here is that you not growing as a couple if one ignores the issue because it would be cruelty or wrong and the other one is covering it up with efforts.

Its hard specially if you have been together for quite a long time and had beaten a lot of odds together. And it would a sad thing to admit to yourselves that your not growing close but farther apart. Admittance that you had this issue, honesty on speaking, listening, and had a courage to decide are the things you should put in mind.

A Kiss that feels right

Ever since the ancient times, kiss has been one of the best way to show affection or respect to someone. A touching of one person's lips to another place that somehow evolved through time and many kinds were born from it. But aside from that, kissing has been one of the ways to find a suitable partner.

We sometimes came across to a lot of people who considered kissing someone a way to determine if that person was right for them. A lot also claimed that kissing someone who is really meant for you feels different or somewhat special compared to kissing other people. They call it “the spark”. Funny it seems that some rely on this spark to find the perfect one.

Would a kiss be enough to decide if you are meant to be? Many would say “Yes”. But a few would be skeptical about it. But me, I don’t totally disagree with the whole thing but may add a few details. When you find someone or if you’re with someone meant for you, I beg not to be melodramatically about it, everything would feel right. Even the slightest breath of air, the sound, the moment, everything would feel right. And these things do not go one way.

It is not only the kiss that would feel right when your with the one you love… but everything… would feel right.

Simala Travel

Last April 13, my mom with the rest of the family went to Simala. I having gone to Simala for 3 times already and did not expected the kind of picture of it when we arrived there. If you have been to Sinulog, yesterday's people was same as it was in Sinulog. There were so many people. It was so since it was the 13th day of the month and falls on a Sunday which according to some old folks in the area, is day of miracles of the virgin. It was not a good thing to be there since I was suffering from mingraine already. And the heat, crowd and the atmosphere in Simala is not helping my situation. But I'd still managed to be there for a few hours and attended the mass. And believe me, the number of people that goes out never compensates to the number people thats goes in. I did think yesterday that Mother Mary seen the people in Simala since there were scattereed rain shower on the area. It was quite refreshing but the fact that "from heat then rain" is not good. Wahaha.. :D It was dark when we arrived home. I did thank God since I was still in good shape althroughout the travel. It was an unforgetable experience. One thing I've learned that day, if you want to avoid a lot of people, go to Simala when its not Sunday and not the 13th day of the month. And one more thing, bring yourself only and dont be with someone else. So you wont have a hard time dragging someone along with you :D

broken promises

Well, i turned to be bad for breaking my promise to my mom to be home early. I did planned to be home early but a friend of mine invited me to hang out with some friends. I did like the idea since that friend would pay for my food. But the sad thing was I forgot to ask for permission to stay late or be late. I did anticipate on the time but I was so happy hanging out with my friends that I got lost track of time. The next thing I know it was 10:30 pm which was way past the time I promised to be home. When mom called on the cellular phone of my friend, I immediately got on the jeepney going home. Not only I did break my mom's promise, I also broke one of my promises too. I did promise that I should stay away and ignore that person. And also as much as possible never ever speak of that word again. But me being an ass, broke it all. I clung to that person like a lizard. I did not ignore that person coz most of my attention was on that person. And not but not the least, I used that forbidden word many times. I know I did went so far in breaking my promises. But did I really broke them or was it still on the context? I did an emotional check within myself. And it was still my resolve. So it was nothing serious to impose a threat to me. I felt bad for the broken promises.. And I do my best to never do it again.. :D

Johny Deep Movie marathon

Today, I watched movies starring JOhn Deep. Well these are "The Pirates of the Caribbean: At the World's Ends" and "Sweeney Todd: the demon barber of fleet street" . The first one was pretty nice. I really am amuse on the acting of Jack Sparrow (johny deep). hehe.. His lines in the movie (or the manner he carry himself the scenes) are funny. On the other hand, the second movie was a bit tragic since Mr. Todd (johny deep) killed his own wife. It was an accident though coz he wasnot able to give a closer look at the woman. But it should not have happen if mrs. lovett did not lie of his wife's whereabouts and mr. todd was not eatin by his thirst of revenge over the people that cause him pain.

All the films are worth watching.. ANd I enjoy myself watching them:D

Johny Deep fan forever!!! hehehe

... regrets...

Things we regret on:
1.) things we wished to have but did not
2.) words we wished to say but too late to be spoken
3.) things we wished to do but failed
4.) people we could have been but didnt have a chance to be
5.) people whom we wished could have stayed but left
6.) wonderful moments but did not last
.
.
.

...... the list is endless unless we stop and think that regrets are nothing but a mere reflection of our cowardice in life. Regrets came to be since we were not able to achive our goals because we let ourselves being hindered by fear, insecurities, pride and other things. We start to regret when we stopped thinking that past is of the past or the past could never be changed. We could avoid these things if in our life, we do the things we really wanted to do and bearing all the consequences of it.
...... Life is directed by our choices. Carefully choosing those choices according to what we really wanted would be a way to lessen our regrets in life.. ;)

she will be forgotten

..nakz...
it just came to me this week. When i said "im moving on", i might sound absurd based on the things I have been doing lately. Well, I am but not enough. It is not enough in the sense that people could still feel the kind of presence we have together. Though how many times I tried to impose change within myself, people cant see it. They see thesame old me around same girl. Well, I can't force them to think that way esp. when they think that my world is still around her. THe fact that is was doesnt mean it is still. My heart could be stupid but wounds do heal. And when it does, scars remind us that we wont do it again no matter how dumb we could get. A lot of friends had their suggestions on what should do but I did not listen thinking it would be too harsh to implement between us. But this has to end since I know can see the gap I had created between us. I want that gap to widen so that people would see that she doesnt matter to me that much. I dont want to impose this on the hard way but we might be running on thesame circles or worst creating another circle of our own. Sad to say, she will be forgotten. Not tomorrow, Not on June, but Now.. She will be forgotten and this she will learn that on the hard way.. And I dont intend to hurt her.. ANd I know perfectly my place. This has to happen again to delibrately destroy the thing that has been between us that should have never been. That would be painless on my part since I could go on without her. I dont know if that would hurt her either..... all i know is that... i would do this.. not to free just my self, but the both of us from the strangle of issues around us so that we could act separately without affecting each other.. :)
.....
Note: i Dont inteNd tO be Assumptous to some part of the post.. All of it were based on how I feel and please just respect it. If U got nothing important to say, just Dont post a Reply cause I would think youre absurd.. hehe.. Comments are greatly appreciated... Thankz for reading.. :O

Sacrifices

Its been sad lately since I did not have good grades in all my higher math subjects. Its painful to see a lot of 5 in my report card. And now, this academic year, I would sacrifice what I think has been so deliberately useless in my academic life. Although they add spice to my college life but the fact that I need to concentrate so that I could graduate this year. I wish that I could make it since it would be a test of my determination against these things that is I consider now as temptations. I know I had been stupid to entertain these things and its never to late to make my last resolve. I know surrender them, so Help ME GOD.
