it well ganda what i don t love however is the video i mean it s not horrible but it s so unsurprising and uninspired and i hate to use the term hipster up dharma down s great music certainly deserves better videos but then again it s just a music video no use getting an aneurysm over it more 25 nov 2012 sun at 5 31 pm edgar allan paule leave a comment slumdawg reformist slumdog millionaire manila style not giving in artist rudimental feat john newman and alex clare director josh cole cast allen añas tugo cunanan ereson catipon arsell dela cruz 2012 rudimental s music video not giving in has much in common with dangerous minds music of the heart city of god even sister act and all those other inspirational movies that goad the youth to choose art over drugs and violence that reaffirm creativity as the path to freedom from one s sordid political and economic chains it begins with two brothers in the manila slums borne to a degenerate father and an abused mother the two happily subsist on petty thievery an inseparable tag team of sorts more 21 oct 2012 sun at 6 19 pm edgar allan paule 2 comments the privileged teen fashionista fantasy our young and fashionable protagonist at the pnr train passenger or train wreck 12 51 artist krissy and ericka director nani naguit cast krissy and ericka villongco george schulze 2012 it was my first time to encounter krissy and ericka last night apparently they ve been around for a few years my first impression was pangalan pa lang konyita na but that s just plain mean and judgmental so sinarili ko na lang muna for a few seconds kasi naman one of them is a freshman pala at yoopee dillimahn while the other s still studying at saint pahl cahllege of pahsiehg and one of them s akshally going to brrahcay tomorrow sakit sa tenga teh more 10 apr 2012 tue at 2 29 pm edgar allan paule 6 comments third world snack magpi pillow ka na nga lang yung manipis pa thin pillows oishi 2012 oishi philippines came out recently with a new

director jade castro cast rhian ramos aljur abrenica bea binene jake vargas bella flores enzo pineda chariz solomon kevin santos sef cadayona ken chan bela padilla gwen zamora 2012 do not be fooled by its deceptively accessible surface enhanced by the parade of delicious biceps thanks to aljur abrenica enzo pineda et al you may think you re just watching another run of the mill boy meets girl story well to some extent that s what it is but who would ve thought that gma films would come up with a romantic comedy that s not plain fluff more 03 apr 2012 tue at 2 32 am edgar allan paule 3 comments the myth of cinemalaya and the myth of the artist cinemalaya was it really ever free lest we forget it s a cojuangco grant not a universal right after a firestorm of criticism regarding the disqualification of mnl 143 on the basis of poor casting the opinion that cinemalaya heads should be ashamed is a pretty unanimous one lawyer and film critic oggs cruz who resigned from the selection committee in protest argues rightly that the prerogative of casting is within the ambit of the creative freedom provided to a filmmaker who is making a film as an independent artist and not as a hired craftsman simply put the organizers deserve to be criticized for striking a pose of freedom but operationalizing the opposite independent spirit that is not to trully allow filmmakers the freedom to put forward their own ideas necessarily entails that they also be allowed to calculate their own risks wager their own gambles and as screenwriter raymond lee says make their own mistakes more 06 mar 2012 tue at 10 21 am edgar allan paule 2 comments skin deep racy racist or classist bela padilla cover the bikini issue march 2012 fhm philippines summit media 2012 in view of the bela padilla fhm cover controversy one thing is supremely obvious ang galing ng marketing ng summit media surely something this big and this obvious was no mere accident this had to be done on purpose for the record admits fhm philippines on its facebook page we were never able to print any copy that had the original cover we pulled the cover image before it hit the printing press in short tons of publicity at no extra cost not a single print issue wasted not that the philippines top selling magazine title needed any more help but props to the publisher for its excellent marketing sense but let s not dwell on that the outrage over the racist cover reeks of 1 a selective eye on issues and 2 an enchantment with the politically correct as if saying sure you re a vulgar magazine but you can t be that vulgar where do we draw the line and how more 05 mar 2012 mon at 1 06 pm edgar allan paule 2 comments the new conservative the gospel of star cinema people start to openly want sex only because they re brokenhearted unofficially yours director cathy garcia molina cast john lloyd cruz angel locsin boom labrusca edgar allan guzman tetchie agbayani k brosas 2012 i can t say i didn t enjoy unofficially yours because i did an enjoyment however that went nothing beyond the purely escapist pleasure of being in a darkened cinema by yourself for two hours away from nagging office deadlines obscenely increasing gas and power rates and other daily burdens that unfortunately are officially ours the film seemed promising topbilled by two of the best actors of their generation and directed by star cinema s resident auteur many were raving the moviehouse i saw it in was still pretty packed and yet in spite of all that it had going for it i found the film ultimately unremarkable more 27 feb 2012 mon at 1 24 pm edgar allan paule 1 comment bato bato sa langit ang tamaan bakla remington pretty boy or predatory gay zombadings as a study of why and how to promote gay killings michael david c tan outrage magazine 2011 zombadings 1 patayin sa shokot si remington director jade castro cast martin escudero kerbie zamora lauren young roderick paulate janice de belen john regala 2011 what is most troublesome about michael david c tan s open letter is his claim that lgbt advocates do not exist because we want to be tolerated we actually already are this is far from the truth zombadings 1 reminds us that as tan rightly and ironically describes we live in a world where homosexuals are killed for being gay where homosexuals are pressured to act straight in order to gain employment where trannies are ridiculed and barred from certain establishments where reproductive health and divorce remain a highly contested topic where same sex union is still perceived as a lost cause even by the nation s only gay political party more 15 aug 2011 mon at 12 16 am edgar allan paule 13 comments everybody needs a shipwreck once in a while careful careful now alam mo namang mahirap ma achieve ang
