SERI LAND : New Attraction at MANILA OCEAN PARK

There is a new attraction at Manila Ocean Park and it's called Seri Land. I don't actually know who Seri is but the Seri figure displayed is a cute bear in pink robe and hat.

Seri Land has 5 attractions namely Kid's Paradise, 3D Theater, Trick Art, Mirror Maze and Bear Museum.

Sonic the Hedgehog stars in the 3D short film 'Night of the Werewolf' at the 3D theater. Kids will love the 3D short but I find it average and cartooney although the air-conditioner was at full blast making it conducive for relaxation.

Mirror Maze is a maze-like puzzle with multiple glass panes. Guests are required to wear white gloves not only to avoid finger printing the glass panes but serves as finding glass pane in front of you.

Trick Art is a photo session haven with art photos creating an illusion of depth and trickery which seemingly interacts with guests.

Snapshots below from our visit last Dec. 11, 2010. The family will love Seri Land in addition to the other attractions at Manila Ocean Park

Here's a video on Seri Land I recorded from GMA-7's 24 Oras on Dec. 3, 2010

ZIPLINE at SM MALL OF ASIA Soon-To-Open

Did you know that SM Mall of Asia is going to have its own Zipline ride? If not, well you first heard it from me.

Zipline (also known as a flying fox, foefie slide, zip wire, aerial runway, aerial ropeslide, death slide or tyrolean crossing)consists of a pulley suspended on a cable mounted on an incline. It is designed to enable a user propelled by gravity to traverse from the top to the bottom of the inclined cable, usually made of stainless steel, by holding on or attaching to the freely moving pulley.

I have tried Zipline at People's Park in Tagaytay city. There's one in Quezon city, the province of Bohol and another in Cebu city. Soon-to-open at the SM Mall of Asia located in Pasay city, Philippines.

Their under-construction website is http://www.mallofasiazipline.com (visit the website soon)

12 ft. MANNY PACQUIAO Bronze Statue at San Miguel By The Bay, SM MALL OF ASIA

We were at the San Miguel At The Bay, SM Mall of Asia after lunch on Nov. 27, 2010 and we saw the installation of a 12 feet bronze statue of Manny Pacquiao. On Google search, the statue was scupted by Fred Baldemor and was sponsored by Unilab's Alaxan FR 'Aray Ko Galing Ko' promo. Besides Manny Pacquiao statue, there are also statues of everyday Filipino heroes: Farmer, Nurse, Construction Worker and Teacher all casted in bronze.

I felt pride seeing the statue of Manny Pacquiao with arms raised signifying victory, a victory from the fights held but also victory from the everyday chores of ordinary Filipinos.

 Workers still installing the base of the statues and the garden design during lunchtime Nov. 27, 2010

The location was finished at about 7pm on the same day Nov 27, 2010.

I likened Manny Pacquiao as the new Bruce Lee. A bronze statue of Bruce Lee stands at the Avenue of the Stars in Hong Kong. Now we have a bronze statue of our own in the form of Manny Pacquiao standing tall at the San Miguel By The Bay, SM Mall of Asia.

DCRJ (Dan C Rivera Jr) stars in TRON: LEGACY (2010)

Walt Disney's Tron: Legacy (2010) will be shown Dec. 17, 2010 here in the Philippines. It is the sequel to the 1982 film Tron. 
Tron: Legacy has an amusing application at Facebook where you get to literally 'paste' your image in the Tron: Legacy trailer. 
I should have pasted a serious face of mine instead of the silly smiling face seen on the video below LOL !

Storyline

Sam Flynn, the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn, looks into his father's disappearance and finds himself pulled into the same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 20 years. Along with Kevin's loyal confidant, father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous.

That's me posing in front of the Lightcycle used in Tron: Legacy (2010) inside the San Miguel IMAX Theater, SM Mall of Asia. Amazing how this film went from vector graphics in 1982 to complete CGI 3D in 2010. I am excited to see this film in 3D next month ! The film stars Jeff Bridges who also starred in the 1982 film.

MANNY PACQUIAO with WILL FERRELL on the JIMMY KIMMEL Show

For the third time, boxing champion Manny Pacquiao appeared on the
late night talk show “Jimmy Kimmel Live”.

This time he brought a singing partner, comedian and Pacquiao fan Will Farrell. The two sang the John Lennon classic, “Imagine.”

The superstar boxer talked to Kimmel about his new venture into politics, his upcoming fight against Antonio Margarito, and even his new cologne called MP 7.

“It smells like a fist,” joked Kimmel. Pacquiao explained, “MP 7, it’s 7 world titles.”
“So will there be n MP 8 when you win the fight on November 13?” responded Kimmel.
Pacquiao answered back, “That’s another brand.”

Kimmel joked with the Pacman about becoming a Filipino citizen, “My colleague he filed a bill to make Freddie Roach a citizen,” explianed the Sarangani Congressman.
“So it’s a bill, can I get in on that so I can be a Filipino citizen? Remember you’re a
politician so they never lie,” asked Kimmel.
“I’m not saying yes but maybe,” Pacquio said smiling.

Filipinos in the crowd said they had good laughs and enjoyed the Pacman’s sense of humor. Luigi Barano had no idea that Pacquiao would be a guest when he won the tickets. He got to chat with Kimmel before the show about the Philippines.

“It was good he’s a funny guy, put me on the spot,” recalled Barano.
The celebrity of the Pacman continues to grow. Jigs Tambong and his family were able to attend the show as well. They’ve been following Pacquiao for several years. Taking pictures and getting autographs.

“He’s a lot more elusive because of his popularity. It’s a lot tougher now to get the autographs. There’s a lot more following,” said Tambong.
For fans, this latest episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live is a testament to the continuing popularity of the Filipino ring idol.
