Marley and Me

 

I like pets most especially dogs . The only thing is I like dogs when they're not mine, because when I get tired of playing and kissing it I return it to the owner . This is how practical I am when it comes to taking care of animals. But years ago I too had a dog which I loved and grew up with and after losing my dog I thought I'll never get another one, however the movie Marley and Me is making me want to get a dog! I want a pet that will be with me from my toughest times to the most celebrated occasions. But enough about me getting a dog ,let's do the film review about the movie Marley and Me starred by Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston .

Marley and Me is a movie about a dog and  about a man (John Grogan, played by Wilson), his wife (Jenny, played by Aniston), and his growing family. The film follows John from his wedding night to the peak of his journalism career a dozen years later, years that are chronicled in his weekly columns for a Florida newspaper. Marley, the lovable but horribly destructive yellow labrador, enters his life as a puppy, in an attempt to prepare him and his wife for future kids. The dog, as expected, tears apart the house, makes wild escapes, humps the dog trainer, and is not just the usual Labrador. But the film effectively intersperses those episodes with tender, sincere moments of human/dog bonding. Marley is there to comfort Jenny when her husband cannot, adjusts to the children as they grow older, and intrudes on the family's most private moments. He is a constant, and at times, annoying presence, but Marley underscores the emotional tone of the film without dominating it. Marley and Me is a tender-hearted, easy-going film that will appeal to any dog-lover. But it will also, I think, appeal to anyone who can look back on his or her life and trace a common thread through each passing year. A beloved pet, like Marley, has that unique capability. I wish I could thank my own dog for that , the dog I grew up with . But, as one of the children in the movie tearfully says, I'm sure he already knows.

T2

Yes! like most of you , I had a long, extremely peaceful ,and quiet holy week. I went through a marathon of watching Jesus Themed movies - Jesus Christ Superstar, The Passion of the Christ , The Lost tomb of Jesus to name a few ... I really did get to know Jesus the " Bro" from watching and reading a little of the Bible's New Testament.  
April 13, 2009 , I thought I'd get some sun so I went to SM CDO and decided to watch T2. T2 is Maricel Soriano's latest movie produced by Star Cinema. I've always been a fan of Maricel Soriano and I must say from the trailer to the theater I wasn't dissapointed. Maricel Soriano's acting as well as Lil Miss de la Cruz's acting is just perfect!
The story is about a woman going through a rough time in her marriage ... i could go on but I don't want to spoil your viewing pleasure ! Overall I give the movie 4 and 1/2 stars , since there were scenes that weren't necessary in the film . I thought the crawling demon inside T2 was not necessary as well as the rats , since the story is about "Engkantos or fairies". 
Much as I like the Malaysian Actress ,I didn't think Carmen Soo fit the description of an Engkantada as it would have been better if the Enchantress were white, pale, mestiza  .  John Lloyd took a Cameo role which could've been given to anybody else . The supporting actors that made a mark were Eric Fructuoso and Derek Ramsey . I think Eric's role was more interesting and he reminded me of my driver who once in his life thought an Engkanto made him forget his way back home . hahaha! I'm serious though!  
Some points that they could put in the movie which I think Direk Chito is saving for a part 2 is that when you think you are fooled by Engkantos you wear your clothes inside out so you'll find your way home. Although salt was shown to make the Engkantos go away , they didn't talk about it in the movie. Also , from what I heard Engkantos do not have this one  particular feature , that we humans have in ourface. I guess its being saved for part 2 . If asked if I would watch the movie again , I'd say sure !
I must say though that the movie is for 12 year olds and up , I wouldn't bring my eight year old sister to the movie since it may give her nightmares  and I will have to endure sleeping in her room every night. 
So what are you waiting for Falcons! Get those tickets now , don't forget your popcorn, preferred drink, and Kfc hotshots for a wonderful movie experience !

Going Green Initiative

 

 

 

This coming school year MDO Highschool will be greener than ever! That's right Falcons , this year MDO Highschool is moving to the Annex right beside the Main Campus . The Annex will house Freshmen to Seniors and with such a move our carbon footprint will be lower as ever since survey proves that MdO students will save energy and fuel consumption with such a convenient location. Parents of higschool students are very supportive with the decision since they believe the new Campus is safer and closer to home.  The new area will be landscaped and will provide a learning environment that is conducive for learning . A haven of learning in the City is what the new MDO Highschool Campus will be . 

Envision a new cafe , a basketball court , a student lounge , and a well landscaped area .  Not to mention the cool Airconditioned Classrooms and newly renovated rooms. Learning is definitely a priority at MDO Highschool , can't wait to see your faces this coming School Year Falcons! So see you when classes open !
