The Roar of the Filipino Crowd

9/16/2014 10:04:19 PM

(No intention to imitate the title WWE NXT theme per se)

Since the 2014 FIBA World Cup was already over, might as well give my brief take on this one.

It’s not surprising that the Unites States reigned supreme once again at the tournament. What can we expect? These guys threw their opponents away by at least 20 points per game!

Perhaps there are more surprising events than that, which I can relay few: like France just pulled a huge upset over host country Spain.

Australia allegedly intends to lose their remaining contest in avoidance to face USA.  Yes, what the hell, right? These people did not send you to Spain to intentionally lose their games in the first place.

And perhaps the biggest surprise of the World Cup is the Philippines’ appearance—and the immeasurable crowd. 

The Rundown Slam: WWE NXT Takeover Fatal 4 Way

9/15/2014 8:38:33 PM

This is the first time I’m going to have a say about the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) NXT third annual special titled NXT Takeover Fatal 4 Way.

Just about four months ago in the same titled event, Adrian Neville went successful in his title defense against Tyson Kidd. The gorgeous star Tyler Breeze also emerged as the top contender after defeating Sami Zayn. Plus, Charlotte won the vacant Women’s champion in a battle of generation superstars against Natalya; and the Ascension continued to reign supreme in their tag team duel.

Fast forward to September 11, at the same venue, the Full Sail University in Orlando, Florida. The developmental brand is up for a two-hour package.

Just My Opinion: On Gatecrashing and Blog Politics

9/7/2014 12:18:14 PM

As much as I don’t want to tackle this type of issue (since blogging about events is something I rarely do), however, as a member of the blogosphere for half-a-decade, I have to be concern too.

Blog politics was never a new thing. In fact, at every aspect of our respective lives, that dirty word (and world) do really exists; whether it’s at school, office, virtual and even on our home.

And so was at the blogging industry.

Upcoming: Lupin the Third – The Philippine Movie Premiere

9/7/2014 8:48:25 PM

I was a fan of this Anime series. Yes, and during my childhood era, it usually aired after the newscast on GMA-7 instead of those telenovelas. Maybe it was because primetime for teens and even kids to have some entertainment.

Until I saw this on SM Cinema’s Facebook page last August.

Yes, Lupin the Third, the Monkey Punch-created 14 volume series you once witnessed in Manga (Japanese term for comics) starting 1967 to 1969, and on animated television series starting 1989 is now on the live action movie scene.

Flick Review: The Expandables 3

The squad just expanded even more and they just went even badass. How about this: Four veteran action movie actors in this one heck of a movie? Add some young guns out there and they’ll come blasting on your face.

But… really, does the cast really armed themselves with better pacing and plot, huh?

Playback: OST — Guardians of the Galaxy

8/26/2014 9:50:45 PM

Like I said before, one of the huge factors that definitely catches my attention when it comes on watching movies was their soundtrack. It’s more plus points (since pogi, from an alpha male omega guy’s point of view, sounds gay), if it sounds nostalgic. Why? Because the film, by just making prejudice assumptions, has a series of flashback devices used (‘throwback’ is not the better term, sorry folks!). Plus the fact, that old school music still rocks more than the newbie ones.

No Blatche = No Gilas in Asiad?

09/11/14 03:21:54 PM

Wait. Dahil lang kay Andray Blatche, hindi na sasali sa Asian Games ang Gilas Pilipinas?

Ayos ah. Seryoso?!

Ayon yan sa Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, ang grupo na nagpasimuno sa pagtaguyod sa ating national basketball team. Yan ay kung hindi nagwork-out ang kanilang apela sa Olympic Committe of Asia (OCA), ang organizer ng 2014 Asian Games sa Incheon, South Korea.

(Updated 10/10/2014 03:19 PM; after the first initial event scheduled September 20, 2014 was cancelled due to stormy weather brought both by the southwest monsoon and typhoon Mario)

It’s back, and they have gone a bit earlier.

Yes, let’s say 11 months from its previous edition.

Saludo kay Gab

09/01/14 06:27:36 PM

Maliban sa Philipine Dragon boat team, sa Gilas Pilipinas at sa mga matitibay na atleta sa nakalipas, ito ang mas astig na dapat nating bigyan ng pansin: si Gab Moreno.

Ang 16 anyos na archer na galing sa kanyang eskwelahan na De la Salle univeristy (no wonder why they were called Archers sa UAAP in the first place), ay nakakuha ng gintong medalya sa Nanjing Youth Olympic Games noong nakaraang linggo. Astig, 'di ba?

Tirada Ni Slick Master: MRT Challenge

Maraming tumatawag sa kanila. Maraming naghahamon. Sumabay lamang sa usong Ice Bucket Challenge.

Ano ito?  MRT Challenge lang naman.

Next Destination?

9/7/2014 8:04:17 PM

Ito ang tanong: saan na pupunta si Paul Lee ngayon? Oo, saan na siya kakampi?

Peace!

09/01/14 07:23:10 PM

At last, peace na sila. Sino? Yung dalawang nagkabanggan nang dahil sa isang biro. Isang biro na naging ugat ng kontrobersiya na nagdulot sa pagbasang sa kanya bilang persona non grata,

Tama, sila Ramon Bautista at Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte.

Sino ang naghudyat nito? Si Gang Badoy, ang founder ng Rock Ed Philippines. Ibinalita nya sa kanyang Facebook account ang mga nangyari.

Tirada Ni SlickMaster: Ice Bucket Challenge

8/25/2014 1:33:18 PM

Anong meron sa mundo ngayon? Nagsisibasaan yata sila. Naghahagisan ng mga nakapanlalamig na yelo sa kanilang mga katawan. Mapa-artista man o atleta, o kahit yung mga nasa pulitika pa.

At in fairness, mas mukha pa ngang hot yung ilang chikas na nakisali sa trend na ito, ha?

"Ice Bucket Challenge" daw. Aba, panibagong pautot na naman ‘to?

Hindi ah. For charity daw ito.

Talaga?

Oo. Itanong mo na lang kay Dean Ambrose.
