Dead Thoughts

-Eddie Guerrero died. Since I have not watched professional wrestling since high school (when I had this DEBRA-i-love-u phase) I didn't really know who he is up until his death.

-I just read from IMDB that Eliza Dushku ditched a possible Faith series (Buffy spin-off) so she could do Tru Calling. I love Dushku and I simple adore Tru Calling. But I prefer seeing her kick ass as Faith than see run around the city saving people who are about to die yesterday (???) as Tru Davies.

-I really do hope Hoodwinked! gets local distribution here. It has really great 3D graphics. Since I saw the trailer over at the Digital Eye Candy office, I just couldn't wait to see it.
Finding Nemo had some Pinoy animators, The Incredibles had several and The Matrix had a few, but all the Hoodwinked! animators are Pinoy.

-I went to Dish over the weekend to cover Join The Club's album launch and I must say that they're live performance has managed to convert me into an instant fan. They're drummer is so amazing, and probably the most inventive in the scene right now. Plus I have a copy of their album Lunes inside the Press Kit. Ah, the perks of being in the Media field!

Saw Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire at Gateway last week. Couldn't quite restrain myself with the fact that most of the people at work have seen it (and are itching to talk about it), plus the billboard near Santolan, EDSA has a way of greeting me as I passed by it every night to get to cubao. It sure looks like several pin-up shots done by either Pantene or Rejoice strewn together- these kids have long, flowing hair and had this intense expression.

And damn have they grown!

Because basically everyone knows how the story goes, I won't break the movie scene by scene and describe the technical, theatrical and aesthetic aspects of each.
But I'd like to say that they've managed to push the computer effects up a notch and Hermione (Emma Thompson) is beginning to look stunningly awesome...looks like a Kate Beckinsale in the making.
