CNA’s ‘The Longest Day’ Showcases How Climate Change Affects Asia

Climate Change is so real. Yes, most of us probably believe it. We even condescendingly hit US President Donald Trump for saying that he doesn’t. And yes, again, let me tell him and people like him that it is indeed REAL. I’ve noticed it from five years back–how the light coming from the sun seems orangey. I don’t remember days being colored like it–how the … Continue reading CNA’s ‘The Longest Day’ Showcases How Climate Change Affects Asia

Actors, Points to Ponder

Park Seo-Joon Kissed Me in a Dream

So, here’s what I remembered in my dream last night: I was on the way to the theatre with Park Seo-Joon, IU, and a couple of my real friends. In that dream, I knew that I have a real-life boyfriend, so I wasn’t flirting with Seo-Joon. But he kept following me. In fact, I intentionally slept in the dream because I was irritated by him. … Continue reading Park Seo-Joon Kissed Me in a Dream

‘Funny Girl’ Film Review: The Story of Barbra Streisand & Every Female Oscar Winner

The 1968 musical rom-com was technically an ode to Fanny Brice, one of the most popular singer-comedienne during the 1930s just before World War 1 broke out. Albeit successful in reiterating Brice’s career and marriage, Funny Girl was highly sanitized. Barbra Streisand as Fanny Brice was funny, heartwarming, and witty, but was nonetheless contrived. The real Fanny Brice was more audacious and anarchic. Her marriage … Continue reading ‘Funny Girl’ Film Review: The Story of Barbra Streisand & Every Female Oscar Winner

Movie Fathers that Taught us Valuable Life Lessons

Mothers and fathers have different roles in society. Yes, we could always bend those “rules,” but in general, all humans have succumbed to what society has catechized in us, or what we should become. While a few parents might have bits of eccentricities, many fathers pride themselves as teachers, giving valuable lessons and advice. Some of them do so unconsciously, but all these lessons are … Continue reading Movie Fathers that Taught us Valuable Life Lessons

One of the most, if not the most controversial Korean drama to date is JTBC’s The World of the Married. I’ve seen several social media statuses posted about this drama, and it is more than surprising; the common words used are shocking, depressing, sick, and f*cked up. The drama is about a seemingly perfect marriage between Ji Sun Woo (Kim Hee Ae) and Lee Tae … Continue reading ‘The World of the Married’ Korean Drama’s Remaining Episodes will be Rated 19+

‘SUPERPSYCHOCEBU’ Film Review: A Philosopher’s Take on Getting High

SUPERPSYCHOCEBU, the Philippines’ first and only stoner film is more than just a cannabis-riddled artform. It is a Philosophical film. Its writers proliferate societal and psychological affairs that go beyond being “stoned.” Being “high” or “stoned,” means going past our conscious brain (beta) to think or create new streams of consciousness–our subconscious, and opening up the alpha or the theta part of the brain. For … Continue reading ‘SUPERPSYCHOCEBU’ Film Review: A Philosopher’s Take on Getting High
