Nobody Nobody But Juan ( Dolphy 2009 Movie )

AN OFFICIAL ENTRY FOR METRO MANILA FILM FESTIVAL 2009
SHOWING DECEMBER 25, 2009

Starring: EDDIE GARCIA, GLORIA ROMERO, POKWANG, ERIC QUIZON, G TOENGI, EUGENE DOMINGO, HEART EVANGELISTA, JEFFREY QUIZON, VANDOLF QUIZON WITH SPECIAL PARTICIPATION OF MR. WILLIE REVILLAME. INTRODUCING JOE ALDEGUER

PRODUCED BY: RVQ PRODUCTIONS INC, JOE ALDEGUER PRODUCTIONS AND KAIZZ VENTURES INC.
DIRECTED BY: ERIC QUIZON

Don't know but humors circulated that the plot of this movie was conceptualized in thirty minutes? Is that the reason why this movie performed not so good in the box office? and it sounds like that the title of this movie was conceptualized based on the popularity of the famous song by the Wonder Girls entitled - Nobody.





SYNOPSIS: Nobody, Nobody But…Juan tells the story of a U.S.-based senior citizen named Juan (Dolphy) who lives in a senior home run by his son (Eric Quizon) and daughter-in-law (played by G Toengi). Juan’s favorite pastime is watching Wowowee on The Filipino Channel. However, he does not watch the show just for entertainment’s sake. Aside from wanting to connect with the Philippines that he dearly misses, Juan is lonesome for his first love Aida whom he lost touch with during the Japanese occupation of Manila. Wowowee is Juan’s way of coping with homesickness and reliving the past.

Movie Flops - Supergirl (1984)

The movie Supergirl is one of those infamous film that are so bad it appears on "Worst Films of All Time" lists according to my research. Released in 1984, after Superman III (which looks like an over comedy superhero film hehehe), Helen Slater has done her part, and the flying effects are so great it made me shout 'Wow!' but some things just doesn't count much...proving the sayings that female superheroes just doesn't click on the movies. I watched this film in the year 1999...and hhhmmmm...what i like about old superhero movies? They pick up female lead stars that doesn't look like a porn star or a sex object at a viewers first glance.

Here's the trailer.

Flashback Movie Greats-Taken ( 2008 )

I saw this and I was completely blown away. I went to see this movie with no expectations. In the beginning it seems that it was going to be an easy to watch movie, but after a short time it turned into a high-speed action movie.

I found the story interesting. I was completely taken away by this movie. At some points it was very very quiet, because of the excitement, you wonder what is going to happen next.

Liam Neeson in one of his best performances. It had good action, a good story, some humor. There are also some sentimental scenes. There are no plot twists. It is just a story being told. This is one of those movies which stay in your memory for a while and let you think about bad things that happen. I rate it a perfect 10.

"Taken," selling $24.6 million in ticket sales, and took a remarkable spot at the box office!

His daughter was taken. He has 96 hours to get her back.

Zombieland ( Movie Trailer )

Woody Harrelson is back in a new film entitled Zombieland, a mixture of comedy and suspense, together with Jesse Eisenberg.

Just like any movies about horror and zombies, Zombieland movie will surely be a hit because people love suspense and bloddy horror films. What can you expect in a horror movie anyway? Kissing scenes? hahahaha!

In the movie, the world is already overrun by zombies and two men has a way to survive it. Jesse Eisenberg as columbus was the one who is afraid of the zombies and because of his fear he is still alive...hehehe what a script anyway, and Woody Harrelson as the Tallahassee who is a cool and a bad ass zombie killer who is determined to kill every single zombie on earth. Hhhmmm? What is that? Sounds like a Mission Impossible movie. hehehe..

They will battle the zombies and stop the flesh eating monsters from spreading the terror and they will need each other’s help to do it.

Studio: Sony Pictures, Director: Ruben Fleischer
Run time: 88 minutes
Theatrical release: 10/2/2009
MPAA Rating: R for horror violence/gore and language

As an Avatar, a human mind in an alien body, he finds himself torn between two worlds, in a desperate fight for his own survival and that of the indigenous people. More than ten years in the making, Avatar marks Cameron's return to feature directing since helming 1997's Titanic, the highest grossing film of all time and winner of eleven Oscars® including Best Picture. WETA Digital, renowned for its work in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and King Kong, will incorporate new intuitive CGI technologies to transform the environments and characters into photorealistic 3D imagery that will transport the audience into the alien world rich with imaginative vistas, creatures and characters. --© 20th Century Fox

The special effects of this film are awesome. Every five seconds someone is swooping through a ravine or running away from an alien monster or flying a sexy future helicopter around or marvelling at the beauty of some glowing plants or something. Eheeemm....okay let's stop talking hehehe...check out the trailer.

The Karate Kid ( Jackie Chan New Movie 2010 )

Remember “The Karate Kid” with Pat Morita and Ralph Macchio? This a remake with Jackie Chan and a kiddie Jaden Smith. But the arguments are like wildfire why this movie has been called The Karate Kid when the setting is in Beijing? That means it's all about Kung-Fu! This is a Chinese co-production movie.

And besides there’s just too many times that Hollywood has inappropriately remake a franchise that turns into a disaster. Either way, I’m glad that Jackie Chan is back to making fun movies...but in this movie Jackie looks old.





And eheemmm..has anybody bothered to think about the negative effects of this movie on kids? have anyone thought about the fact that maybe...just maybe..they will want to emulate it? hehehe...i'm not against the movie...it looks great, but a kid should still not be watching other kids kicking balls. Just a thought of it hehehee.

In the trailer, the general premise appears to be the same boy gets harassed all the time, meet a fighter and trained in some fighting techniques and decipline, and then faces his tormentor in a fight competition, but this new version looks like full of new twist. Hhhmmmmm...let's see heheheeh!
