DCRJ at the New MOA ARENA for LADY GAGA: THE BORN THIS WAY BALL Concert May 21, 2012

We were at the MOA Arena for the Lady Gaga: The Born This Way Ball concert May 21, 2012. It was a double blast to see Lady Gaga and the MOA Arena for the first time. It's the MOA Arena's first night concert or I would say, MOA Arena's opening day. We thoroughly enjoyed Lady Gaga's show despite being at the General Admission which is the area with the cheapest price (P 2,120). Doing the wave with the crowd was fun with 100 % participation of the crowd in the General Admission. The sight of the concert inside the MOA Arena was exhilirating as we could see 'the bird's eye view' of everything from the General Admission crowd to the concert stage. The MOA Arena is truly world class and my only critic of it, I'd say two, is the sound system which is at full blast making the bass capable of ruining anyone's ear drum. Secondly, the stairs at the General Admission is too steep and narrow that it desperately needed some additional handrails. Overall, the experience is a delight and I am proud of the MOA Arena and thanks to Mr. Henry Sy for making it one of the finest arena in the country

DCRJ's AVENGERS - Updated May 14, 2012

Click the image below to enlarge. Enjoy !

Well, that's my own version of Marvel's The Avengers updated May 14, 2012. It was fun placing some of my favorite iconic characters such as Bruce Lee. I hope you like it. There are subtle effects that I have placed too such as the light on the characters reflected from the explosion on the right side. To complete the illusion that some of the characters really were there are the shadow effects done using Adobe Photoshop. Took me at least 24 hours to do it, well actually it was 4 to 5 hours per day for 5 days which is equal to 24 hours. For those who don't know the guy in yellow costume, that's Captain Barbell, a Filipino super hero created by Mars Ravelo, and also Darna, a Wonder Woman of the Philippines also created by Mars Ravelo.

DCRJ's Movie Reviews: MARVEL'S THE AVENGERS (2012)

We saw MARVEL'S THE AVENGERS (2012) at a 3D Digital Cinema at the SM Mall of Asia April 25, 2012 Wednesday. One word...WOW ! To me this is the greatest superhero movie of all time. Character development with all its conflicts and personality clashes is intact. Never did I feel I was watching an overblown cartoon, I was sure I was watching a mature action flick complete with emotional impact, humor and suspense. I was a boy again and the boy inside me was cheering for the superheroes. I was teary eyed for Agent Coulson, who was a big fan of the Cap since he was a boy and I felt his sentiments. Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner) aka Hawkeye, although a minor role in the casts, didn't felt like a minor role at all, he has some amazing moments. I surely wish Jane Foster (Natalie Portman in Thor) had a role to establish the continuing 'love story' part of Thor but she wasn't in the film. I also wish Edward Norton played the part of Banner to ensure the believability of the series although Mark Ruffalo was good. I didn't regret I took the afternoon off my clinic because this was a movie event and the opening day of the showing in the Philippines. Very entertaining and I was hugely entertained. My ratings: 5 out of 5 Biscuits. P.S. - Stan Lee again had a cameo here. The teaser scene in mid-credits is an approval for THE AVENGERS sequel !

DCRJ's Movie Reviews : BATTLESHIP (2012)

We saw BATTLESHIP (2012) at Cinema 3, SM Mall of Asia April 14, 2012 Saturday. Taylor 'John Carter' Kitsch must be on top of the world for starring again in a highly expensive movie. Battleship film based on the popular Battleship game product from Hasbro and also one of my beloved 'board' games from my childhood. The film's special effects are huge, explosive and very impressive but character development is too superficial and the plot with its sub-plot went downhill to the point of silliness. It's all about the action and the aliens are just there to provide more numbing action and make the heroes look splendid. Entertaining film but feels like an overblown cartoon..LOL. My ratings: 3 out 5 Biscuits !
