James Badge Dale (“The Departed,” TV’s “24”) is seen here as Iron Patriot or with his character’s name: Eric Savin, one of the villains of “Iron Man 3.” In the comics, Savin is a soldier who is gravely injured in a land mine explosion and reanimated as a cyborg called Coldblood-7. It looks like the movie merges his character from the books with the Iron Patriot armor (which was worn by Spider-Man’s nemesis Norman Osborn, aka the Green Goblin).

Mythbusters and Seth Rogen Test the Green Hornet Movie Special Effects

Just wanted to thank my friends from GeiserMaclang for inviting us to this cool event! It was really cool seeing my good friend DJ Shayla from Mellow 94.7 there as well. We weren’t expecting to see her there and it was definitely a surprise to find out that she was hosting the event.

They pretty much just gave us a teaser about the upcoming episode for Mythbusters where they were going to try to bust some myths from the movie: The Green Hornet.

We also got to see the premier of the 2011 film: The Green Hornet! I enjoyed it a lot and liked the humor in it. I never really got to see the original ones with Bruce Lee, so I guess I really didn’t have any expectations for the movie and thus was not too shocked by the supposed drastic change of approach as many loyalists have claimed.

When In Manila, I do recommend that you see the Green Hornet and that you also check out the Mythbusters Episode that talks more about the Green Hornets Stunts.

The Green Hornet and his tech-savvy sidekick Kato are buried alive in the Green Hornet’s iconic car Black Beauty and blast their way out using the car’s built-in rockets. Adam, Jamie of Mythbusters and Seth re-create this explosive silver screen scene with a little TNT party.

Sexiest Man Alive 2010 Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern Trailer with Blake Lively

The People Magazine Sexiest Man Alive 2010 goes to the new star of the very promising Green Lantern movie!

Ryan Reynolds was recently named the People Magazine Sexiest Man Alive 2010 and there are 99.99% of girls (and guys) out there who are not complaining.

Ryan Reynolds new title comes at a perfect time, right when his new Green Lantern movie trailer hits the media. It’s definitely adding a lot of buzz for this upcoming DC movie.

The Green Lantern trailer looks promising. Although I’m still not a believer that Ryan Reynolds is the best man to play Hal Jordan (Green Lantern), but only time, and the critics, will tell.

Here’s the much awaited Green Lantern trailer. Please have some napkins ready if you’re a giant geek ready to spew all over yourself and please start questioning your sexuality as well. Are you having an orgasm because it’s Green Lantern, or because it’s People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive 2010 – Ryan Reynolds? Thoughts to ponder as given to you by Confucius….

“The Social Network” Movie Review about the Facebook Story

I just saw “The Social Network” advance screening here in the Philippines. Thanks of course to our friends from Nuffnang Philippines and PLDT for putting that event together!

A riveting, era-defining picture that is guaranteed to make you feel very stupid in comparison and very, very poor.

Storyline:

On a fall night in 2003, Harvard undergrad and computer programming genius Mark Zuckerberg sits down at his computer and heatedly begins working on a new idea. In a fury of blogging and programming, what begins in his dorm room soon becomes a global social network and a revolution in communication. A mere six years and 500 million friends later, Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history… but for this entrepreneur, success leads to both personal and legal complications.

Rotten Tomatoes has a 97% approval rating of The Social Network and I can totally agree with that.

Here’s some reviews and a summary of what people are saying about “The Social Network” –

A rare and vital film that nails the concerns of privileged post-adolescence in the first few years of the 21st century, and, more universally, draws out eternal themes of truth, subjectivity and envy with an effortless elegance.

The Social Network is technically flawless, powered by Fincher’s dazzling direction…

It’s still a little early to start making Oscar noise, but I can see “The Social Network” nabbing several come early next year, including nods for Eisenberg and Timberlake.

Fincher melds The Social Network into a riveting study on the perils of power and money, flipping Zuckerberg from socially-maladjusted college student into a young man governed by obsession, greed and entitlement.

Brilliantly directed, superbly written and impeccably acted, this is a hugely enjoyable, era-defining drama that’s gripping, laugh-out-loud funny and ultimately moving — it’s also one of the best films of the year.

In short…. GO SEE IT!!! Two thumbs up! Five stars for “The Social Network”

“The Social Network” Movie Review about the Facebook Story

Kick-Ass the Movie KICKS ASS!!! (An Ass Kicking Film Review)

“Three guys beating up on one dude with everyone else just watching… and you’re asking what’s wrong with ME?!?!” said the lead character, Kick Ass (his superhero name), as he tries to defend the one guy being beaten to death.

That was probably the one line that really got me thinking from this movie.

Now before I go on, Kick-Ass, the movie, KICKED ASS!!! I mean like, it was TOTALLY AWESOME!!!

Kick-Ass-Movie-Kicks-Ass-Review (3) Kick-Ass-Movie-Kicks-Ass-Review (5)

Without giving away too many spoilers, let me just say that it was a very earthly and REAL story.

Pretty much, some geeks asked the question on: Why no one has tried to be a superhero yet in real life? Dave, the story’s main character, realizes that there is so much sh*t going on in the world and that all we ever do is watch. No one ever takes initiative or takes action.

So as you can see, the plot alone has a very noble basis, yet coming from a very realistic place.

kick-assHit GirlKick_Ass_The_Moviekickass-kicking-ass-kickingass-asskick-movie-comics-comic

Initially coming into the theater, and from seeing the trailers, I honestly thought this was going to be another stupid movie. I was thinking more to the likes of “Scary Movie” or “Naked Gun” and even “Mystery Men.” Fortunately, I was in for a pleasant surprise.

“Kick-Ass” was not like any of those idiotic movies. This one had a great story, great acting, FUCKING AWESOME fight scenes and the coolest characters! The character portrayals was actually one I liked the most. Each  personality in this movie was well developed, from their dialog, to their screen presence and even their internal conflicts. I could see the soul of each character as I watch each move they made and each word they said. The child who was a no more than a child, the father who had a vengeance, the boy who wanted to save the world and the son who wanted to be like his father.

Anyway, expect lots of cool action scenes, funny segments, bloody guts flying all over the place and of course, ONE KICK-ASS MOVIE!!!!

Definitely recommend you go see this!

****P.S. – from the movie director

“Think Jodie Foster, Natalie Portman and Uma Thurman rolled into one. She’s an 11 year-old and she’s the ultimate assassin. She kills, I think, 20 people in a minute.”

-Director Matthew Vaughn
