Twilight Saga update: 073009


With the next installation of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Saga hitting the big screen this November, New Moon rises new issues as well!


Twilight's evil vampire 'Victoria' will next be seen in the third sequel of the Best selling novel Twilight but not with previous actress Rachelle Lefevre. Summit Entertainment drops the bomb and reveals Lefevre will be replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard (Lady in the Water/ Kate Connor (Terminator: Salvation)/ Gwen Stacy of Spider Man: 3) instead! It must have been a real gut to the stomach for sweet-goddess like Rache, but I agree with Summit-- Bryce would look better as Victoria, not to mention her looks alone kill!:E


Read more details about this story
here.

As a fan girl of the story, I'm really excited to see the movie!XD Hear other fan girls wail as well in this sneak peak of New Moon trailer showed at Comic Con 2009!



So far that scene was how I imagine the novel (although that was a very unlady-like run from Bella Swan actress Kristen Stewart >.> and i don't even remember Edward having to remove his clothes off and show that 6-pack abs *KIYAAAA!!!* =)) ) but as I was saying, I hope the movie gets better this time around!

Also,
New Moon Stills from Yahoo Photo Gallery. :D

What's Showing

As some of the most anticipated big movies of this month just came out (that being Transformers, Ice Age 3 and Harry Potter 6), here's a what's in and coming in the next few months! :)


Now Showing:

The Proposal




Starring Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, and Marion Cotillard, Public Enemies is an incredible and true story of legendary Depression-era bank robber John Dillinger (Depp), the charismatic bank robber whose lightning raids made him the number one target of FBI.




My Sister's Keeper is a 2009 drama film adaptation of the novel of the same name by Jodi Picoult starring Cameron Diaz, Abigail Breslin, Sofia Vassilieva, and Alec Baldwin. The story revolves on Anna Fitzgerald (Abigail Breslin) was brought into the world to be a genetic match for her older sister, Kate (Sofia Vassilieva), who suffers from acute promyelocytic leukemia. Anna knows if she donates a kidney, she will be unable to live the life she wants; she will no longer be able to take part in extracurricular activities such as cheerleading or soccer. When Kate turns 15, she goes into renal failure. Knowing that she will have to donate one of her kidneys to her sister, Anna sues her parents for medical emancipation and the rights to her own body.




Based on the classic 1970's horror film, "It's Alive" is about a baby born to a human couple turns out to be a mutant monster with an appetite to kill when scared.

A bit similar to the movie Hitch with it's own hint of story and twist, this is The Ugly Truth.

Release date: August 12




A next from our favorite 3D movie creator Pixar comes UP, a comedy adventure about 78-year-old balloon salesman Carl Fredricksen, who finally fulfills his lifelong dream of a great adventure when he ties thousands of balloons to his house and flies away to the wilds of South America but soon discovers he hasa stow away on his trip: an overly optimistic 8-year-old Wilderness Explorer named Russell.

If you loved the humor from the 2006 movie Borat, then Sacha Baron Cohen's back in a new movie called Brüno coming out this August 26... because Borat was so 2006 ago.

That's a lot of upcoming shows but right now, I'm just super excited for The Time Traveler's Wife! Still more trailers to come in the next post! :D

For the chill~


As much as we all love Lady Gaga, she's now your biggest fan in her latest glam song, Paparazzi.



Sean Kingston tells you to call 911 in his latest song, Fire Burning.



This one ain't really a new song but it's just touching to know David Cook wrote this song for his brother who died last May 2009 of Brain Cancer. Eventhough our bodies may leave us physically, we will always be Permanent in one's heart and mind.



And lastly, Bamboo finally releases a new song from their 2008 single "Tomorrow becomes Yesterday". Here's 'Muli' starring Nick Padilla and the lovely fashion icon Teresa Herrera (although no offense to her, she looks old in this video, not the right girl for hot Nick here. -.-") Great concept though! :)




Keep visiting for more updates! 'Til next time! ^_~v

Gaming reads!

I haven't got any article about gaming lately and i don't think i still have on right now. So instead, here are some short reads about gaming you might find interesting. :)

"Michael Jackson considered releasing next album as a video game"
http://videogames.yahoo.com/events/plugged-in/michael-jackson-considered-releasing-next-album-as-a-video-game/1331676

I can't imagine how you'd make MJ grab his crotch and shouting "Yeah!" so i hope they stick with his songs just in Rockband or GuitarHero for that matter. :))

Next up:

"The $17,500 video game"
http://videogames.yahoo.com/events/plugged-in/the-17-500-video-game/1332488


This person sure is either on heck of a collector or he just doesn't have anything to spend his money on! Freakin' P150k+ on a 1990 game??? I hope it still works! :))

(But it's why i'm still keeping my Playstation 1 set, it doesn't really work anymore but you never know when a collector might want to buy it from me too! Say, P200k starting bid anyone?! XP)

"10 Best Robot Crotch Shots (And One Boob Shot)"
http://io9.com/5303133/10-best-robot-crotch-shots-and-one-boob-shot

Devastator's got Nards!!! =))


And lastly, get a load of the techie lola who'se rising to fame in BayanTel's latest commercial ad about her in:

"Graduate na ako sa Pacman, type ko na MMORPG :)"
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1021069586064&ref=mf

The 'Flash Bang, Flash Bang!' part honestly made me laugh! Takot na ako kay lola, hndi ko na sya kayang talunin sa Counter Strike! =))


...Your thoughts? :)
