Julia Montes, Enrique Gil New Teleserye in the Works!

Julia Montes and Enrique Gil's chemistry is undeniable in the MMFF 2013 entry The Strangers that we can't help but think incestuously for their characters. Fortunately, we've moved on from that nicely done film and we're damn antsy to see Julia Montes and Enrique Gil again.

And now, just now, Abs-Cbn has revealed that they got their hands to a new teleserye for Julia and Enrique. The project is still untitled but the two has already done some shoot for the promotional materials of their upcoming drama series.

Gil previously starred alongside Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla in "Princess and I," which aired its last episode in February. Montes, meanwhile, was cast opposite Coco Martin in the "phenomenal" primetime series "Walang Hanggan," which ended in October last year.

Other cast and the director in-charge to this exciting teleserye are yet to be revealed. The new teleserye will hit the small screen later this year!

Charice's Mystery Girlfriend Photo Surfaces the Web

"What happened to the old Charice? She's dead like BB. " a friend exclaimed. Perhaps, wearing the trendy hairdo of one of the Padilla's (Daniel), a new photo of the 20 year old international singing sensation Charice Pempengco has surfaced the web. And as usual, it has become another laughingstock by most netizens who suspects Charice's sexual preference and odd choice of haircut.

Currently, the singer has remained mum over the new photo (along with the old ones) and no one could point out the identity of the mystery girl in the photo. Charice will probably answer this controversy after the May elections since she's busy going out of town as an international, national, regional, city-wide and barangay singer to electoral candidates and party list.

Vote Ladlad! Charot.

That's why Ayala Cinemas is coming to the rescue and is set to release the R-18 version and without cuts of this bloody horror film.

PRESS RELEASE - Billed as “The Most Terrifying Film You Will Ever Experience,” Columbia Pictures' horror thriller “Evil Dead” will hold special sneak previews on Monday and Tuesday, April 22 & 23, exclusively at Ayala Malls Cinemas (ahead of its May 8 regular opening).

Rated R-18 Without Cuts by the MTRCB, “Evil Dead” is a bone-chilling film that combines all the raw excitement and gleeful gore of the acclaimed, 1981 original with a series of shocking new twists.

In the film, Mia (Jane Levy), a young woman whose life has been marred by loss and addiction, asks her brother David (Shiloh Fernandez), his girlfriend Natalie (Elizabeth Blackmore) and their childhood friends Olivia (Jessica Lucas) and Eric (Lou Taylor Pucci) to join her at the family’s rustic cabin to help her overcome her demons. Once there, she ceremoniously destroys the last of her stash and swears off drugs for good in front of her friends.

Inside, they are shocked to discover that the abandoned cabin has been broken into. The cellar has been transformed into a grotesque altar surrounded by dozens of mummified animals. Eric becomes fascinated with an ancient book he discovers there. In thrall to its mysterious contents, he reads aloud from it, never suspecting the terrifying consequences he is about to unleash.

As Mia’s withdrawals worsen, she begins to unravel and attempts to flee, but is turned back by a frightening vision. At the cabin, her behavior becomes so violent that her friends are forced to restrain her. Trapped by a dangerous storm raging outside, they begin to turn on each other one by one. As the brutality of their attacks increases, David is faced with an unimaginable choice.

New Charice Hairdo Draws Mixed Reactions from Netizens - Again!

I don't want to be the last person who will tell you "I told you so." about why Charice let herself be the center of attraction once again with her new look. While, nearly everyone gets a bad hair day, that day is probably everyday for the International singer. Apparently, she once again changed her look and of course that means cutting her hair. And what do you know? Short hair, tattoos, long sleeves, pants, what else is in there - I told you so!

Charice became controversial after a series of image change for the past few months but most especially during her turn as judge on the now defunct X-Factor Philippines. She once became a pancit canton girl, fast forward, a Daniel Padilla-ish girl(?) and now, she looks like a genetic mutation of Psy and Aiza Seguerra who borrowed a shirt from Vhong Navarro. Whatever!

Abs-Cbn has once again released a Summer station ID for the year 2013 which carries the theme "Kwento ng Summer Natin" (Story of our Summer) with Sam Milby and Angeline Quinto performing the theme song. The must-watch Summer station ID is tripping down to memory lane by recollecting the biggest shows and pop culture trends over the past 60 years.

The video starts with every pinoy kid's favorite summer activity, flying a kite, and then the kite gets stuck to the roof of an abandoned house where an old television which didn't seem like a TV at first, lies. Then we get sucked in to a world full of Abs-Cbn shows and wow, from ancient tv shows of the 70's and 80's, until my birth decade, the 90's whern shows like Home Along Da Riles, Tabing Ilog and Ang TV matters and a whole lot more!

We also see, Abs-Cbn's most notable icon - the Sarimanok! Woot. It makes me feel like a kid again. They forgot to include morning educational programs like Hirayamanawari, Bayani and Sine Eskwela though.

‘It Takes a Man and a Woman’ Box Office Update!

I'm 100% sure you wanted to keep track of It Takes A Man and A Woman's box office success despite the fact that you will never get any portion of that. I don't know what's wrong with you  - why don't you ask yourself? -but I won't judge instead I'll tolerate you via this box office update.

So earlier today, April 7, at ASAP 18, the box office gross of It Takes A Man and A Woman movie was reported to have reached the P200-million mark. And that means, it's halfway into becoming the highest grossing Filipino film of all time dethroning the MMFF 2012 entry Sisterakas, which was crappy by the way.

I've been reading reviews of It Takes A Man and A Woman and I think the movie garnered generally positive reviews as well. Some are just too elitist to even recommend it. Like you know, it's a pinoy movie! Jologs and all. That kind of notion, whatever!

But anyway, rejoice fantards and Star Cinema and Viva Films people who are altogether P200-million richer! I hope I'll get invited to your victory party. Hehe. Eww!
