Good stuff. Both based from a game. Their plot may be a little too shallow for some but nonetheless I love the direction, photography, and musical score of both anime.

On fortune telling
"Of course, it's a pity I can't get it right, but I think it's better that I don't. If the results come true, it's as if there's only one future. But if it fails, we can think that other futures exist. We never know how the future shifts because of the slightest change. I want to believe that in our future there are many possibilities waiting." - Ryou Fujibayashi
After watching Kanon, I had a particular fondness for classical music.
Canon in D by Pachelbel is now my favorite classical piece.

On noynoy
Ninarogdaw!!!
Bumibilib ako kay Noynoy sa unang mga buwan niya bilang presidente.
Kasi yung mga bagay na mukhang maliit lang pero malaki ang epekto sa pulitika sa Pilipinas, unti-unti niyang binabago
May team na pala siya na nagmamanage nung information na nalalagay online. Makikitang nilalagyan ng halaga ng kasalukuyang administration ang opinyon ng mamamayan. Sa malamang yung mga taong marunong lang gumamit ng computer at mag-internet (5 million ata ang bilang ng mga Pinoy na gumagamit ng facebook) ang makakagamit nito, pero mas mabuti na ito kaysa wala. Mas mabuti na ito kaysa sa nakaraang administration.

Sa kasamaang palad, sa administration pa ni Noynoy naganap itong hostage taking incident. Yung interview nga niya, parang nagulintang pa siya. Parang alangan siya sa mga sinasagot niya sa media. Kung sabagay, dun sa interview na napanood ko, yung mga miyembro ng media, kung magtanong parang si Noynoy ang may kasalanan ng lahat. Absent yung confidence na naramdaman ko nung SONA niya. Hindi talaga niya inexpect. Malas lang.

- Pagbawal sa wangwang
- Pagbabawas ng mga opisyal na last minute ng nakaraang administration na-appoint
- Kapag naisabatas, yung pagbabawal ng paglagay ng pangalan ng politiko sa mga imprastraktura na resulta ng mga proyekto na pondo ng taong bayan ang gamit (nakakagulat na may mga representative na ayaw tanggapin ang konseptong ito)

The A-Team (2010)
Good.
Standard fast action and explosion packed scenes.
Narration of planning is done during the execution.
Rampage was good as BA. But of course Mr. T retains his title as the original badass BA.
Hannibal (Liam Neeson) sounds like Optimus Prime.

Inception (2010)
Amazing movie.
It's about a guy, Cobb, who can tap into people's dreams for whatever purpose. His team’s specialization is information espionage. They create scenarios within dreams for information extraction from within a target’s mind. Due to his circumstances, he is tasked by one of their clients to do an inception of an idea to a target’s mind. His team believed that it was impossible to do. Further down the story, it is revealed that Cobb knew that inception was possible all along because he once did it.
The movie explores the idea of the omnipotent subconscious mind; that in it, possibilities are endless. Dreams within dreams.
For me, the movie raises the question: If you get wet dreams in multiple levels of dreams or even in limbo (where you are trapped in the dream), what happens to your body in real life? :D
So yeah it is a thinker. I am still really puzzled with the ending. But I think that this is exactly the ending that the creator wanted to get in my head. I am one of the victims of the creator's great idea, his inception.
"Think about it. How did you get here?"
Definitely recommended.

Singapore Logs
Singapore mismo
Ang daming Pinoy
Ang daming bagong construction
Ang daming condo
Mahal ang lupa dahil maliit lang
Ang daming turista
Compared sa Pinas
Mas mahal yung food
Mas mura yung mga prutas
Mas mahal yung pamasahe
Mas mahal magpamasahe
Mas mura yung electronics
Mas malinis
Mas cheezy yung infomercials
Mas mababa yung humidity
Mas mabaho yung MRT
Mas kaunti ang tambay
Binaha lang ng konti, na-threaten na matawag na third world

24 July
- Nag-ikot sa Orchard at Bugis street.
- Unang MRT.
- Singapore laksa
- Marina bay sands
- Ok siya na hotel. Milyon ang kita nila per day. Premature daw ang pagbukas niya. Hindi pa completely tapos yung project binuksan na nila kasi milyon milyon ang nalulugi bawat araw na sarado ito.
- May mahusay na string quartet na Russian chicks
- May swabeng swimming pool sa rooftop
- Bawal mag-swimming pag kumikidlat
- Konti lang yung chlorine
- Ang daming turista na makakakita sa iyo habang lumalangoy
- Ang ganda ng view of the city lalo pag gabi
- Sentosa. Ok yung parang racing. Songs of the sea. Meron yung lift na pang snow board pero walang snow.
- Universal Studios
- Masungit yung Fiona. Hindi pa tapos yung tanong namin kung pwedeng multiple shots ang kunin sa kanila ni Shrek pinapaalis na kami after nung shot. Gusto lang naming makunan ng litrato si Shrek e, di naman namin talaga gustong kasama siya sa litrato hehe.
- Naalog yung utak ko run sa Revenge of the Mummy. Na-feel kong airborne ako nung nasa peak bago bumaba yung roller coaster. Parang naiwan yung utak ko tapos biglang rumagasa pababa.
- Under repair yung main rollercoaster
- Nakarinig ng authentic Asian "What the hell?!" dun sa ride na mababasa ka. Bale pag bagsak nung gondola sa tubig, "What the hell!?" Buti nalang napangunahan na kaming mag-short at slippers lang kaya ok lang kaming mabasa.
- Nakapag MRT na kami lang. Weird yung machine ng ticket, ayaw magsukli ng mas mataas sa 4 SGD. So kung may 10 SGD kang buo, hindi ka makakabili ng ticket, kailangan mo pa magpapalit sa customer service.
- Nakita yung difference ng terminals 1 to 3 ng Changi airport. Dun kami sa budget terminal (terminal 1).
- Delayed yung flight namin ng 1 hour. May nakalimutan daw iinstall na piyesa.

Date Night (2010)
I don't get it. It is Tina Fey and Steve Carell in a movie that tried to be funny and failed hard.

Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 AT-X
Kwento sa pagbili ko ng lente:
Nung bumili ako ng lente, napansin ko parang may dumi sa loob ng lente. So parang naghanap ako ng ibang stock.
"hayz, dinadamot pa kasi nila sakin yung stocks nila. nung una, tinanong ko "kuya may iba pa ba kayong stocks?" sagot niya wala, e di sabi ko ok na, kasi ok naman yung lens saka di ko pa nakita yung dumi, biglang nung binayaran ko na yung lens, may isang girl dun naglabas ng dalawang box ng 11 16" :))

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
Not that great.
out of focus -> ang daming robot, ang dumi ng fight scenes they are too fast and literally dirty. ang tindi ng dust problem nila.
makes me love the 300 style fight scenes where you can see exactly what is going on. the director isolates and slows down the action in order to stay in focus and let to viewers know exactly what is going on.
I hate the robotic jibberish sounds/voices. I hate you.
they shot on the same location. wtf. million ang budget tapos wala na ba silang nakuhang tao na magiisip kung saan pa sila pwede mag-shoot?
soundtrack is quite nice. this is it.
at some point in the film, it felt like the da vinci code all over again.
optimus dies -> optimus revives as the imba dude from hell and punches the fallen through the chest.
sana gumawa nalang si megan ng chick flick movie.
I really loved the ending of the 2003 transformers movie. optimus saying stuff, sam + megan on top of the car with a beautiful landscape backdrop during a sunset, linkin park playing the intro of what I've done. that's how an ending is done.
ending of this one is almost exactly the same. sunset, sam halik kay megan. wtf. wala na ba silang ibang maisip?
yes nagmamagaling ako :D
good enough to watch. especially while sitting on the "transforming" chairs in the ultra rip off but sort of pleasing gold class village cinema of crown.
