Hello folks! It seems like I skipped a whole year, again, without putting a review out there. I’ve actually been doing that more on my public Instagram account whenever I post mini-reviews of films I see, which also get cross-posted sa public author’s page ko sa FB. You can follow that account if you like: … More Year of the Lull
A.K.A. ang pagbabalik ng Manyunyugi ng Pelikulang Panget, or in short, should I come back with this comeback? Or would I survive reviewing this revival-ish of a film? Ma at pa, beh. Ma at pa. So sige, keber lang. I’m back, bichezzz! STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI (2017) d., s. Rian Johnson p. Lucasfilm/Disney chuva … More War of the Woulds

But this one I was forced to see because I wanted to see what merit it had for being included in this batch, … More MMFF2016: Seklusyon perpetua from this one
Ahmsareeeh, was quoting this APO Hiking Society song (sing along here). Kailangan lang may kapitan ang lola mo sa pelikulang ito. Kasi kung ito ang unang napanood mo sa MMFF 2016, either bibitaw ka na agad o…matutulog na lang. O makikipaglambutchingan sa iyong jowa kasi malamig ang Disyembre at Enero. Anyway I digress. Here’s why. … More MMFF2016: Kabisera ng buwan, at ang hangin ay may kalamigan…
I like this new MMFF logo. It cutely reflects both celluloid and digital via the wheel icons. Then there’s Metro Manila icons within the jeep. And then there’s movement, as this is an animated logo. The font is also reminiscent of the past Tourism Dept. campaign of “It’s more fun in the Philippines!” Enter … More MMFF2016: My briefer (pantyer?)
