Music, Movies, Stars, etc.

What kind of songs do you love to listen to while you’re on a road trip? Notice that I didn’t say “while you’re driving” because I still don’t know how to drive. lol. I do, however, join in a lot of road trips with hubby, and more than often – with the whole family.

Hubby likes RnB songs much. Me, on the other hand, opt for a variety and my choices depend on a number of factors like the traffic pile-up on our route (feel good music, pop songs please), if I feel cozy and I wanna hug my zabuton (relaxing, dozing off tunes), if the windows are open or not (sing-along, dance-along mode on!), and more.

Jewelries play important roles in movies (and I think that there are times when they get more attention than the stars flaunting them) – and they are also very important in merchandise sales. Anyway, I just watched Eclipse a few days ago and it made me wonder how many guys got their girlfriends a replica of Bella’s engagement ring – plus how many Edward-Bella fans actually got the ring for themselves. Whew! People must be earning a lot from selling movie jewelry merchandise. lol

Next to rings and bracelets, necklaces (and lockets and pendants) are usually among the most commonly used objects of symbolism in movies – and that’s not just in romantic movies – it’s actually all over tons of films. Here are some of my favorite necklaces, pendants, and lockets from the movies…

No matter what music genre you’re into, if you were born sometime between the 70′s and the 90′s, you must know Sting. I mean common, perhaps this video would ring a bell…

Just by the title alone, you’ll know who I’m referring to if you have indeed seen one of his videos (or his shows). Me and hubby first stumbled upon his first video (or maybe not – I’m not really sure) last year and I just remembered it now and visited their YouTube account for more… Wait, I haven’t really told you who I’m talking about. LOL. He’s Achmed (pronounced Acchhhh-med), the dead terrorist. I’ll let the great Jeff Dunham introduce him to you. Watch the video below and be ready to laugh (that is if we’re on the same humor wavelength) Make sure to check out your Direct TV showing times, this is a show you do not want to miss….

It’s been a while since I have featured ads here and it’s because I have not been watching a lot of TV lately. I have been skipping TV shows and watching movies on DVD more – and I have been surfing the internet much much more. Anyway, I was looking for some resources on car rentals Johannesburg airport for a relative, I stumbled upon some creative car advertisements.

I’m no ad expert and no car buff too so I’m delighted when I see interesting car ads with messages that I instantly get – without the need to ask whys and hows. I was so delighted that I thought you should see these too… Read the rest of this entry →

My brother has joined two video contests just recently and he’s enjoying it much. That’s why we are planning on making his YouTube Channel where we can publish his would-be “experiments” – videos of him dancing, singing, whatever. He still doesn’t have concrete plans but he told me he’d be joining another contest which requires the participants to submit music videos. Anyway, I’m telling you this because I’m listing down a few video ideas for people who are planning on making their own MVs for the purpose of joining contests, being popular, or just plain entertainment…

♪Making up a song about Coraline. She’s a peach, she’s a doll, she’s a pal of mine. She’s as cute as a BUTTON in the eyes of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline. When she comes around exploring, Mom and I will never ever make it boring. Our eyes will be on Coraline.♪

I don’t know what I will do if I lose my kid. I feel that losing your precious little one is pretty much the most terrifying event that a mother would have to deal with and that is why I watched The Orphanage. That – and the fact that it is produced by Guillermo del Toro.

The Orphanage is a Spanish film about a woman – Laura – who goes back to the orphanage where she once lived. She goes back with her family – her husband and her adopted son (Simon) – in order to start an orphanage herself. Trouble starts when her son begins to have imaginary friends – and when he acts strangely. Trouble worsens when she sees her son’s imaginary friend in flesh – and his son disappears. They try to look everywhere. They get the help of the police, post pictures everywhere, do radio announcements and more. (Perhaps the only thing they haven’t tried is to use high tech materials like a gps rangefinder). They even get the help of a spirit medium.

During my bad hair days like today, I can’t help but wish that I could find some inexpensive wigs that would fit me. Frankly, I didn’t like wigs before especially when Britney shaved herself bald and tried a variety of wigs that did not really suit her… I don’t know… I just feel that her pictures gave wigs a bad name…

We were actually able to watch plenty of horror and thriller movies last week but I am only going to give a quick review of three because I plan on making full reviews of the others.
