elephant

Elephant is such a great film. Gus Van Sant is such a great writer and director. And Ludwig van Beethoven, ah, is heaven.

back to BSB

I'm starting to love Backstreet Boys. Again. I used to love them way back in HS. Their Never Gone album is just wonderful.

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford is, yes, a very long title for a film. But it's forgivable. Why? Because it's awesome. This is from someone who hates Brad Pitt.

little children

It's not as great as In The Bedroom but it got something huge to offer. I'm not quite sure what that something is right now but trust me, it's something beautiful.

This is another film from the genius Todd Field.

politics vs. politics

Lozada should be cast in abs-cbn's Maging Sino Ka Man. He is that good. But then again, it wouldn't do the show any good.

They said they just want to know the truth. Is it the truth they really want or the kind of truth they already have in mind. And they said they want change. Isn't it what we've been doing and getting for the past years? I hate history [the subject], but at this point in time, it can be a very helpful reminder.

and there's a winner

I'm happy that No Country For Old Men won Best Picture in Oscars. But I can't be that happy because There Will Be Blood didn't.

No Country, for me, is so McCarthy. Simple but intelligent. Blood, on the other hand, is, and will always be, a masterpiece.

Pulp Fiction is cool, but is it that beautiful? Almost. It's fun though.

hot spy, and the debater

ALIAS is still hot. And so as Jennifer Garner.

Rocket Science, a movie by the 2007 Sundance Best Director Jeffrey Blitz, is really good. And just like any great film, it leaves you something [not just laughter]. I owe this movie a lot. I couldn't remember the last time I laughed so hard I couldn't breath anymore. This movie reminds me of that. And I kind of miss it.
