Bette Davis Eyes.

I am not a fan of Gwyneth Paltrow. Yes, she's pretty and all but I don't find her sexy. But when I saw this video of her singing Bette Davis Eyes, I was impressed.


I think this clip is taken from the movie Duets, which I still haven't seen. Hopefully I can find the time to watch it soon.

Here's the original version of the song.

Prince Caspian.

I've just finished watching The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, a movie I downloaded a week ago, and I must say I am a fan. I loved the first, loved this one, and now I can't wait for the third. According to various fansites, production will begin this January 2009.

So apparently, The Chronicles of Narnia is a series of seven fantasy novels published during the 1950s.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (1950)
Prince Caspian: The Return to Narnia (1951)
The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (1952)
The Silver Chair (1953)
The Horse and His Boy (1954)
The Magician's Nephew (1955)
The Last Battle (1956)

I hope I find the time to read them all. And since I've seen the two movies, it wouldn't be hard to imagine how everything and everyone would look like, especially Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes).


Cute, I thought. He looks like he's such a sweet guy. A pretty boy. But this photo is so much better.


Ben Barnes + Cigarettes = HOT.

Camp Rock.

I've been hearing this song a lot this past week. It's a song from the movie Camp Rock which stars the Jonas Brothers. I know I'm not a fan of this kind of music but it's catchy. Plus, I always see the music video playing on the Disney Channel.


And I don't mean to sound creepy but I think Joe Jonas is cute.


I don't know what's happening to me. Next thing you know I'm watching the movie. Jeez!

Triplets.

I was just staring into nothingness when the movie Blades of Glory came to mind. So while I was doing my movie trivia reading, I came across Chazz's first skating song. This is The Stroke by Billy Squier.


Then I saw something interesting. Billy Squier looks like Mika!



Then I realized that they both look like Will Ferrell. Or at least Chazz Michael Michaels.

Garden State OST.

I haven't seen the movie but I'm loving the soundtrack.

Hollywood Love.

"You are the only person that can make my heart beat faster and slower at the same time." - The Hot Chick

"I would rather spend one lifetime with you - than face all the ages of this world alone." - Lord of the Rings

If someone walks up to you and says these things, do you think you two could hit it off? Or how would you react if you hear your significant other confide to one of your common friends and says something like this:

"I would rather have had one breath of her hair, one kiss from her mouth, one touch of her hand, than eternity without it." - The City of Angels

These lines might sound corny but the truth is, we want to hear these words from the people we love. Why else would we enjoy these kinds of movies if they don't make us feel good? They make movies like these to show us that sometimes, we should take a chance, try something new. And that's why the game Extreme Style by VO5 Ultimate Flirting Championship was created.

It's a place where you can try these lines out and see if someone is ready to take a chance with you. Who knows? You might come out with your Victory Hair like I did.

WarGames Back In Theatres.

Pretty in Pink is a popular 1986 film about teenage love and social cliques in 1980s American high schools. Andie Walsh (Molly Ringwald), a poor but fashion-conscious girl who has a crush on one of the rich boys in her school, Blane McDonough (Andrew McCarthy). When Andie and Blane try to get together, they encounter resistance from their respective social circles.

Both Molly Ringwald and Andrew McCarthy are members of the Brat Pack. The Brat Pack is a nickname given to a group of young actors and actresses who frequently appeared together in teen-oriented coming-of-age films in the 1980s. Other members include Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Rob Lowe, Demi Moore, Judd Nelson, and Ally Sheedy.

Ally Sheedy stars alongside Matthew Broderick in the hit 80s movie WarGames.

Memories Of Nobody.

I want everyone to know my Manga Character Name:

Inmorutaru Fupueniku

This actually means Immortal Phoenix. I chose this name because the Phoenix is one of the most legendary animals ever and I love how it signifies both hope and power. It is said that the Phoenix lives for a hugely long time before dying by fire, then rising again from it's own ashes.

Catch Bleach the Movie in theatres this coming June 11 and 12. This is for two nights only so don't miss it!

Death Note.

I can't believe that they're now showing the Death Note movie in theatres. I've seen the animé and I can't wait for the movie. It's showing in select theatres for two nights only.

Unknown

The movie is about Yagami Light, a bright student, who finds the Death Note, a notebook dropped by Ryuk, a Shinigami death god. Any human whose name is written in the notebook dies and Light's mission is to rid the world of all evil. But when criminals begin to die inexplicably, the authorities call upon L, the legendary detective to solve the mystery. L, being a great detective, is soon hot on the trail of Light. Both of them thinks that they're on the side of justice so they both use intellectual strategies to prove which one of them is "good" and who's "evil".

Catch this awesome movie only on theatres this May 20 and 21.

The Godfather.

I watched The Godfather again today and I remembered how it rocked. Honestly, I think this movie is one of the greatest movies of all time!

It reminded me of how I've always wanted to be a member of the mafia. There was this time when my friend and I used to meet up at around 5am to jog around the park near the NGI wet market and were thinking of organizing our very own Cosa Nostra. But of course, we didn't have the resources and we didn't want any trouble.

Anyways back to the movie, here's what I thought of the actors:

Al Pacino = simply awesome
Marlon Brando = greatest "Don" actor of all time
Robert Duvall = still looks the same after all these years
James Caan = looked good in the movie except for his super hairy shoulders

I did my research and saw that Abe Vigoda was also in this movie. Abe Vigoda's character is Sal Tessio, the person who planned on handing Michael Corleone over to Barzini. Abe also appears occasionally in the Late Night with Conan O'Brien TV show and has his own website and I think they made this website to tell the whole world that Abe's still alive. Funny, really. They even have this Premortem Mix recorded. If you don't remember what he looks like, here's his picture:

Hopefully, you know him now. But if you still don't, nobody would care. I just kinda feel bad for him because he's always being made fun of. At least he played an important role in the movie.

Be Very Afraid.

A lot of people might agree when I say they don't make scary movies like before. Remembering the classics The Exorcist, A Nighmare on Elm Street, Friday, the 13th, and The Shining, I can't help but feel disappointed when I watch I-claim-to-be-scary movies.

I saw the movie trailer of Frontier(s) and I must say that I can't wait to see this one. After watching the trailer, I thought to myself that this is how a scary movie should be. I did my research and found out that after it got an NC-17 rating for "extreme sadistic gore and violence", they were forced to choose if they would want to cut it down to have an 'R' rating or keep it uncut and not show it in movie theatres around the world. They chose to keep the movie pure and now they have only a limited time to show them in select theatres. So you should go to the Frontier(s) site and check the select theater listings to find out if it's coming to a theatre near you.

Unknown

The Bloody Disgusting website said that it "... will be remembered forever as one of the greatest genre films of all time." So if you love genuine scary flicks, then Frontier(s) is a movie for you.

Iron Man.

I went to the mall yesterday to watch the movie Iron Man. We avoided Libis because today is a holiday and most people would be out on party places last night, but still almost missed the first part of the movie due to the heavy traffic along EDSA. Luckily, we made it just in time.

We attended the special screening along with the VIPs. Yes, the VIPs. I don't know where we got the tickets but the 8:30pm slot was reserved for us. There was also a pre-screening party at Burgoo but we didn't bother to go there. We were only interested in watching Robert Downey, Jr. "suit up" and become Iron Man.

As if being seated in the most uncomfortable spot in the theatre (a corner) isn't bad enough, I have a fat noisy father person for a seatmate. He was talking loudly and he kept on staring at me. Gross!

After a while, I got to focus on the movie. I can't really say that the movie's great but, I think it's WAY better than Spider-Man 3 and Fantastic Four: The Rise of the Silver Surfer, and I think I'm gonna see the sequel if they're planning to make one. I enjoyed Robert Downey Jr.'s performance although not so much Gwyneth's. I think she's better with all the drama and not the superhero girlfriend type.

I've read that Robert is going to appear in the The Incredible Hulk movie as Tony Stark.
