Were the World Mine

Here ye! Here ye!

As always! i was trying to browse through on the latest indie film trailers in the hopes that it will somehow entice me to watch it whether online or decide it is worth looking for a CD.

So I looked at the usual sites, You tube and my space. I was able to come across some trailers but none enticed me more than this feature entry of mine.

The movie is called, Were the World Mine, a new independent musical film that’s won several awards at various film festivals. The movie is about this gay guy in a conservative small town who manages to create a love-pansy, inspired by Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which is also prominently featured in the film. This purple love-pansy (of course it had to be purple!) turns practically everyone in town queer. As expected, campy gay hilarity ensues.

revolving around the question; IF YOU HAD A LOVE POTION, WHO WOULD YOU MAKE FALL MADLY IN LOVE WITH YOU? :)

As usual I cannot wait to for this to be shown in the internet or better yet on the big screen (cinema)

I have to wish that, I hope Santa hears my demands this Christmas… :)

Enjoy!

Joel Lamangan's WALANG KAWALA-No Way Out (Trailer)

This is what’s on my Movie list!

This is the much awaited movie from Joel Lamangan, WALANG KAWALA-No Way Out.

This time I will let the UNRATED trailer speak for itself!

Cyber Game of Love

As I was strolling today in SM city cebu with pooh, we were just walking, talking and having a good time (quality time).

We went to the top floor and try to see what movies would interest us; we really do not have plans yet since I work at 5 pm (Darn!). I came across this movie entitled SEB, sounds very interesting and well we can both relate because we practically live also in cyberspace (friendster, my space, face book etc.)

SEB

(Cyber game of love)

Really caught my attention, it does make sense. We all have dark secrets, secrets we do not tell even our closest friends and we find ways to vent it out. Cyberspace is usually the place we go through to escape.

I haven’t watched it yet but I will be finding a way to put that on my schedule. Here is to hoping!

I am also Happy that SM well management, did play this movie. As far as I remember they really stick to Family Oriented Films. I even remembered before that they did not play “Broke Back Mountain” and “the Da Vinci Code”. I have nothing against SM management because they do have the right to filter whatever they want to play on their CINEMAS. I am just happy that they opened up to this kind of Art film! And hopefully more will come.

I hope this will not be the last time they will show an Indie Films that depict the current scenario’s of the modern Filipino/Filipina.

I hope that they didn’t just do it because the current rending is moving towards independent film makers.

I hope that if they do decide to become family oriented again, they will not only focus on the good side. But more often than not it is also good that we get a good dose of the dark side of the modern Philippines, It will and should keep us grounded.

I hope…
