When you're tired and hungry from work or have an online shopping order coming from Timbuktu, you only have one man for the job, the DELIVERY RIDER. This is the same title of a new action drama movie starring Baron Geisler, Euwenn Mikaell and Jake Cuenca. They held a press conference for it a few days ago in Dean and Deluca in Quezon City so we had the pleasure of talking with the cast and its director Lester Pimentel Ong. For those who don't know, he's the same guy who did hit series Incognito. This just means we're going to have a lot of expectations which I'm quite sure he'll deliver because he's that good.
Baron plays a man in the autism spectrum, brought up and trained with martial arts, whilst having innate fighting skills. He also wishes for independence and inclusion just like those in his condition, in hopes to stay away from usual stereotypes. He says "This is sort of a gift for those who are under the spectrum, made meticulously for their parents and those who love them. Santo is certainly mad at the world he lives in but always seem to be kind. This is his strength and you'll see that in every delivery he does in the film."
Playing the role of his son is Euwenn Mikaell, who's had a fruitful 2023 when he won Best Child Actor at MMFF. Jake Cuenca on the other hand will play a gang leader's son. He says "I immediately said yes to this project because it was an opportunity to work with a talented actor Baron and one of my favorite directors Direk Lester. When we finished filming, we had a sense of respect with each other's work especially since we had a ringside experience where we spent most of the day talking with each other."
He's certainly excited to see this on the platform and shares you should be too because they are also doing this with Jennica Garcia, Malou De Guzman, Soliman Cruz, Joem Bascon, Richard Quan and JC Alcantara who's got real skills when it comes to these type of shows. Make sure you subscribe!
Taking time out of your busy schedule to watch a movie, a show or two has been really hard these days. Work for most is getting in the way, but it certainly the same level of sadness if you don't have your own projector at home. These days, it's essential because going to theaters have already been a little troublesome and expensive. Add to that, transportation costs, overpriced food, and that kid kicking your chair too.
I've featured LUMOS a few times here on the site and have lived to enjoy it so much that I get to use it regularly for family gatherings and parties. Folks often ask me where I got it. Well let me get you in on a secret, you can actually purchase this online and have it delivered to your home conveniently. They also have a new one called LUMOS FLOAT, a one of a kind 360 degree rotatable home cinema projector which we installed just a week ago. See, my room needed an upgrade because I've always wanted to have one installed for movie nights or YouTube sessions because I love watching anime series off the app.
The LUMOS FLOAT is pretty light and compact. No more heavy and bulky projectors!
For starters, installing this LUMOS FLOAT is quite easy. You can mount this off a regular tripod or choose to put this on a wall or ceiling. Think about the possibilities. If you put this above your bed, you can beam it to the wall in front or even use the ceiling if you are lying on your back. This means you can be in the most comfortable position you can imagine. Like watching the best shows without straining your neck.
They call this the SkyTrack, a built-in bracket that makes it even easier to mount the projector with hooks from 3M without the need to drill your walls or ceiling. You can then have it pointed to your preferred position, totally convenient for those who are not handy with building stuff (especially those IKEA shelves you've been meaning to finish months back LOL). The LUMOS FLOAT can be projected to a wall so you can get a 150-inch screen. Since my room is a bit small, I could take it a little around 1.5 meters away from it and I could enjoy a 50-inch screen. It's super easy to set it up that way and looks crisp at 1080p quality. It has 3000 lumens which makes it brighter than usual, I've seen no washed-out parts so far, the video quality is quite awesome!
The LUMOS FLOAT uses its remote to focus, way more convenient now since it's not manually done. The device also has built in apps like Netflix, Wi-Fi connection and Bluetooth if you want to connect it to the internet or your device. It has Wireless Mirror Casting, so you can easily see what you have on your phone. I even watched several videos from my phone without any hitches. The sound quality was also good and loud enough to fill the room. With it, you'll feel those shows and movies would be more immersive. You'll start to fall in love with those nights you'd spend with loved ones, your family, and with yourself.
If the video looks a little imbalanced, it's easy to access the settings and adjust the projector. You can also adjust the zoom to your liking. The device also has a USB port so if you've got media you need to access from a drive, this is plug and play. So far, I'm addicted watching anime on it and several Filipino series. I've also been watching several action movies which felt like I'm in the actual scene in full volume. No wonder a lot of people get hooked with the LUMOS projectors. This isn't just me, a lot of folks swear by it and I'm sure if you experience it first hand, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Here's a little preview of the LUMOS FLOAT:
The LUMOS FLOAT also comes in 3 colors. You can choose Gold, Silver or Pink. I prefer the Gold since I have several gold accents in my room and it goes pretty well with the white walls. This costs Php 4,999 for the regular while the Smart version (with the apps) cost Php 7,999. It also comes with a 1-year local warranty so if you run into concerns, they'd be able to take care of it.

Looks like NETFLIX is getting ready for highly successful Korean series Squid Game as they premiere on the platform this coming December 26, 2024. It's been a while since we've seen the first installment, but their Director Hwang Dong-hyuk promises that it will all be worth the wait.
We had ourselves experience this during the Netflix thanksgiving event at Green Sun a few weeks ago, and certainly, we had ourselves go through the various games they played in the series to earn points, and exchange it for exclusive merch later on in the evening.
The character Gi-hun will be starting off the second season after he
leaves the airport, there will be some that will still be part of this
installment, while a few will be new characters you should look out for
in the show. Times will be different this time because after winning
that game 3 years back, it'll be a whole lot different now especially
when they get to win 45.6 Billion, and new players will have them
running after their money. They also teased some characters from Season 1
will have appearances, so watch out for that!
They didn't win
the Emmy's for nothing, so make sure you do download and subscribe
through Netflix because as you can see, they definitely have a LOT up
their sleeve!
