Watched the movie PROJECT BABY of Regal Entertainment Inc. This is directed by Eric Quizon, who had their premiere night at Eastwood Mall Cinemas. This stars multi-faceted actress Sue Ramirez and rock icon Rico Blanco. They also had Matt Lozano (who wasn't there because of work), Arra San Agustin, Yasser Marta, Alex Calleja, Kimson Tan, Christian Ty, Charuth, Drei Arias, Jonathan Perez, Jazzil Sarinas and the living vampire Ms. Alice Dixson.
The plot is interesting because it delves on genuine relationships, modern ones, and the concept of parenting. Does it need to be perfect? Does it need to be planned? Or maybe have the heart involved?
Would you do it for the sake of relationships? Pro creation? Or weigh things of what's moral or not?
There is also a kid involved in the story where you have to understand whether the parents are taking on the responsibility or not, or firmly follow the contract?
Then it also gets complicated, finding the right mix of doing right, listening to opinions of friends, family, the bio father and her own thoughts.
This would all be answered in the movie PROJECT BABY. Will she succeed in actually making a baby? A Boy or a Girl? Do they need to do what is right? or will they live in sin and break all the rules of love and relationships?
I'd gladly rate this a 4/5, it was a bit stiff in the beginning but became more au naturelle later on the story. Aside from the main stars, you'll love the character of Matt Lozano who's funny and fluffy in all the right corners. The story is going to be the main selling point, you would want to know what would happen next. It's cute, not complicatedly told, and a very happy material to watch. Though it's the first time that they've been paired on screen, you can feel how they wanted to encompass emotions, including that much needed kilig we always ask for.
It's now showing in theaters nationwide! Go watch it today!
One of the world's most noted brand in collectible figures just set up a pop up shop at the middle of Robinsons Place in Manila. Tamashii Nations has always been the go to folks for everything anime, manga, and is part of Bandai. You could evidently see how detailed their pieces are, and plus points on craftsmanship which we all got to see on their shelves!
If you're a fan of Dragon Ball Z, Ultraman, Kamen Rider, Gundam series, several anime's, you'll certainly love what they have to offer. They also gave tons of discounts for patrons and fans, plus a few launches that interested us especially the new die cast figure for Soul Of Chogokin GX-118 Voltes V Legacy. Kapuso actors Radson Flores and Matt Lozano were also there for the delight of Voltes V Legacy fans and gave them time to talk, do a few activities and signed some of the products bought on the pop up store.
Meet the Soul Of Chogokin GX-118 Voltes V Legacy. It's super cool to look at in person, and Akira san mentioned how much he took time to not only put accuracy in the model, but also be able to do the separate vehicles justice. For those asking, GreattoysOnline.com is the sole distributor for Tamashii Nation in the Philippines. They are also celebrating their 25th anniversary, and what service did they made for those who love toys and anime-manga culture. Akira san also told us that they've got lots of event exclusive models including one for Kamen Rider which he also designed. Here's the event on video, please enjoy!
I'm also super happy about Radson and Matt of not only landing the roles for Voltes V Legacy, but being a full part of POP CULTURE, that when Voltes V is mentioned, they will be part of that already. That's super cool in so many levels, and I hope they would be able to make fans gush not only with their looks, but geeks who continue to love the show to this day.
Congratulations to Tamashii Nation, GreattoysOnline.com and the men and women who made this event possible. They are still there until March 15th so make sure to head on to Robinsons Place Manila if you want a dose of Voltes V Legacy, more manga, mecha and anime, grab your friends, family and get those Tamashii Nation products to make yourself happy!
Hearing their names during this press conference made me question myself, why didn't I think of that?
Dance phenom Rayver Cruz, gorgeous Rhian Ramos, rock chick Arci Munoz, talented singer actor Matt Lozano, and multi awarded actress - singer Glaiza De Castro will be starring in this movie called SINAGTALA. This is the handy work of Cinemalaya awardee Mike Sandejas who also did "Tulad ng Dati" and "Dinig Sana Kita".
It was supposed to be made years ago but schedules made it difficult because much of the cast were doing projects that had continuity in it. The story revolves with the lives of band members who had very interesting lives beyond their usual work.
Rhian says "You know, I've seen the trailer so many times, but it still gives me goosebumps because the meaning resonates with me. We hope this would touch lives, not just ours. We had already started working in Sanggre, then we got to work in Sinagtala. We will still do the Rastro movie, but I'm so glad that even if we are not together on screen, they still support us. We have more surprises this year. I think the pressure is different now, we are artists that need to grow. We are more mature, our closeness is different now and we hope that translates to a different chemistry now that we're doing this. Artists would relate to this because it's also about passion, to question yourself about the money, the fame, finding yourself and your center. To realize how lucky you are that you get to do your craft."
Glaiza adds "I am proud of this movie, proud of my co-stars because I feel it was fate that brought us together. There were tons of other artists that were considered for the roles but I think the Lord was responsible for this, in orchestrating forming us 5. Our schedules are crazy, but it was so surreal to see this happen. This isn't normal. I know much of them in the past, but haven't really worked with Arci and Matt, and I'm so proud to have had the privilege to work with Direk Mike Sandejas because this story is so personal for him. He wrote this a long time ago, and it now has a different meaning for him. We hope that reaches you somehow. Before this, Rhian and I were in Sanggre, when we learned about this project, I was happy because we were able to talk lengthily about the film. It's not something we expected to happen, and although there are plans to do another film, this is a bonus for Rastro fans. They'll get to see us in a different story, a different role. Rhian is actually very musically inclined, people don't know that she plays the drums and is pretty good at it. She'll surprise you with what she's going to do here. We don't talk about the usual stuff, we make candles, things that make us happy. We talk about personal things, and 10 years ago, that's a long time. We have different dynamics, it's not about just work, but life. When we were young, we dreamed of being stars, but now it has purpose. Through this film, you get to see that, you also have new dreams and see why you need to make an effort to achieve more."
Arci says "We are celebrating a very beautiful story of 5 people, connected with the love of music and love of God. Everyone had their struggles, they found their purpose and I feel people can relate to it because Direk Mike did a great job interpreting it. We hope to be able to save lives with this. I do have a band in real life, we've been together for 17 years and I think about the things we personally go through. It's not easy, you have to find your purpose, your reasons, and how to go through problems that are bigger than you. This also teaches you to be inspired. You will never fail as long as you have the Lord beside you."
Matt says "This film will touch a lot of people. I relate to this because as an artist, I sometimes don't deserve the success that I get. It will teach you about life, Direk Mike certainly worked hard with the story. The only thing I did to succeed was to hold on to God. My faith is a huge factor in everything I do."
Rayver says "I relate to this because we both are going through things. Music is something that makes me happy, when I was called for this role, we call each other bandmates. That makes me so happy even after the shoot."
Here's the press conference on video, get tissues because they've been quite emotional during this event!
This is certainly a very promising film to watch. I hope their individual fans would be able to watch the film because this is certainly something they'd love as a story. It comes out on April 2 under SINAGTALA FILMS.
