H A P P Y B A T M A N D A Y ~!!!! Tribute Covers to the Caped Crusader

It's is the year of the Batman, and literally today the world celebrates "Batman Day", honoring everything and anything related to the Dark Knight and his world.

That being said, I wasted no time contributing to the occasion by putting up these tributes to the Caped Crusader for his special day, featuring me wearing the cape and cowl as Batman of the Philippines.

And of course, honoring the entire Batfamily was necessary, so here's me and Gotham PH posed and promoting the upcoming Batman Day celebration on Fully Booked/ Comic Odyssey at the Fort on Saturday, July 26.

And that is pretty much what one should do to honor the Silent Guardian and Watchful Protector of Gotham City. No matter what iteration or memory of the hero you may have, Batman is a symbol that is everlasting and memorable to everyone. HAPPY BATMAN DAY EVERYBODY!

Movie Review: X-Men: Days of Future Past

2014 started out as something to look forward to with promise, hope, and potential, especially with the numerous blockbuster film franchises and sequels hitting theaters throughout the year. The comic book movies in particular were especially stacked, with not one but FOUR movies laid out in the year's schedule, and all of them Marvel films featuring extraordinary superheroes and characters.

Now comes one of the most anticipated sequels in 20th Century Fox's long running X-Men film franchise, which brings together an ensemble cast of stars and the return of the man who directed the first two installments of the franchise. Yes, old and new generations literally crossover for the very first time, in a film that sees Bryan Singer back at the helm for the live action adaptation of one of the most controversial and beloved X-Men stories of all time - X-Men: Days of Future Past.

Having already opened in various international territories, the film is possibly THE BEST X-Men film ever with the array of talents and mutants starring in this tentpole wonder. Seeing the film last Wednesday, I can truly say this is something any X-Men fan, newbie, and those who have had numerous issues with past films in relation to continuity, will definitely want to see.

Here we go with the Review! Possible SPOILERS AHEAD, so read at your own risk! Special Thanks goes to 20^th Century Fox PH, Warner Bros. Philippines, SM Cinema, and The Philippine X-Men Team for making the premiere screening on May 19 such an Xciting Xperience!

Movie Review: Godzilla

Ten years... It took TEN LONG YEARS until the creature resurfaced, and FINALLY... THE KING OF MONSTERS HAS RETURNED.

Yes, GODZILLA IS BACK... And in a form that stays true to the spirit of the creature fans and moviegoers have known through the decades since he made his first appearance in the 1954 Japanese movie classic bearing his name. Following a hiatus of production since his last appearance in the movie Godzilla: Final Wars in 2004, Toho chose to retire Godzilla for ten years, which paved the way for a triumphant return in this brand new EPIC REBIRTH that's produced by studios Warner Bros. and Legendary and helmed by "Monsters" director Gareth Edwards.

Following the largely forgettable attempt of the 1998 Roland Emmerich film that introduced us to a pretentious incarnation better known as "Zilla", does this new Godzilla stand firm and worthy to reclaim the title that fans have long dubbed him with? Trailers have certainly pointed towards the direction of a resounding YES, and after a spectacular viewing in IMAX this week courtesy of Warner Bros. Philippines, here's my review of the big comeback of GOJIRA in cinema.
