can you read my mind?

Isnt he just a piece of art? I was really looking forward for the next Superman movie and was wondering Warner Bors. will start working on it. When the person to play the Man of Steel wasnt named yet, I really have nobody in mind to do it, not even Dean Cain, well he did a great job with the Lois & Clark, but it wasnt just that good enough for the big screen. Then ofcourse in due time Brandon Routh's name came in the picture and I was like.. who was it? who was playing Superman?!... I headed to the nearest PC and googled his name. There were very few pictures of him at that time, researched his name and learned that he was one hot model and very in demand in the modelling world, same patterns applied, some newbie guy get to play the Man of Steel. Only this time, the actor has to resemble the late Christopher Reeve they just had to put on contact lenses on him to fake that blue eyes. The movie itself was great the effects and it didnt bore me that they adapted the same music to give life the scenes, I really love the song "Can you read my Mind" by Maureen McGovern, but I like Lea Salonga's version better. I wasnt really psyched that the movie was coming, I was psyched right after, would you even believe it?

I enjoyed seeing familiar faces in the movie Kevin Spacey finally playing something his league, Kate Bosworth and what was her last movie, I havent seen her for a long time. What surprised me was Ben Foster and James Marsden on the film considering they just played Marvel characters, Angel and Cyclops respectively, not so long aga. If you remember Ben Foster was the Aircraft remote override ride guy on the film and James Marsden played Lois Lane rebound to Superman when he left...

Im still not over the movie and Brandon Routh really complimented and gave justice to the role. So what if he gets typecast? Christoper Reeve was proud of it, I know Brandon is to... its Superman he's being typecast with not just any role.

Another film I saw was Eating Out... directed by reknowned Filipino Director Lino Brocka's nephew Q. Allan Brocka. The movie was about a rejected Breeder, refected Gay, a bitchy Fag Hag and a Boy Toy in a wallowing and crazy fun search for true love. I almost it was some sort of shallow gay porn that turned out to be living up to the awards it reaped. Scott Lunsford really threw me off my chair with his role, he pretended to be gay just to get to Gwen who happened to have a Bi bestfriend Mark who has the hots for him. So he had to date Mark to get to Gwen. Things evened out in the end... am in no plans to tell the story.

I read about Q. Allan Brocka alot of times, he was featured in alot of magazines here and abroad and am I not so proud of him, maybe plenty of Filipinos are and will be. He does not make films the same way his uncle does, he's not in that heavy drama, I actually thinks he's more like his uncles rival, Bernal. Make me remeber the movie Pinoy Blonde, it was about two friends arguing who the better director between Lino Brocka and Bernal. Back to the nephew, Q. Allan had his own taste that he puts to the screen and its very light to watch but with depth. No wonder he reaped those awards. Am looking forward to see more.

X-Men Series the Movie: As an X-Men fan this is a Major disappointment, minus Ben Foster who played Warren Worthington. I did watch all three movies if it was a stand alone movie series, meaning not an adaptation from the comics, it'll be totally perfect. I was disappointed with the story though some the elements are retained it was just not fitting the puzzle.

Enough of movies... On July 14th I'll be on leave for the very first time. I'll be attending a party that JayR took kinda first hand to organize along with us. JayR has been part of my icky life for three years now and he was a big influencein my life. The decision I make the way I think are all affected by JayR not that he dictates on me but because... I dont know, Im was like this even before I met him. What clothes I buy, food I eat, movies to watch, the way I write, the new phone I bought. What the hell happened to me? Now I decided to lie low in his group and be like any normal person. Its having a double life when I was with JayR_online.

I was talking with my cousin a while ago. She was asking help with her phone. I wasnt really prepared to talk to her yet. She doesnt even know that I knew she told her mother. Who misinterpreted blogging to sending email. Not the daughter's fault. I was thinking "what are you really here for" and I felt she read my mind and started telling me that everybody has gone through a lot her mother and her brother. What they are right now are just products of what time made. In other words she was asking me to justify... I did, I do justify why people act the way they do... but if her mother has something, why take it out on us? I didnt tell her that. I have already let go of that... though I am still indiffirent.

Maybe time can only tell...

carpe diem!!!
