The Pied Piper, The Seven Foals, and 3 Other Fairytales That Deserve Their Own Feature Film
With the recent success of fairytale classics remade into live-action such as Into the Woods, Maleficent, and this year's Cinderella, it's no doubt that the following years will be huge on the fairytale live-actions. Pan is upcoming, Beauty and The Beast is already in post-production, and a few other animated classics are slated to have their own live-action makeovers as well. There's definitely going to be a resurgence of the fairytale/fantasy genre in the succeeding years to revive our own thirst for magical and epic adventures!

A few months ago, I had the pleasure of interviewing one of Hollywood's celebrated Scottish poster artists. Ciara McAvoy is known for her detailed work of oil in canvas, and has won numerous awards for the poster she did for X-Men: First Class and Filth. (Although most of her work features James McAvoy, the two don't share immediate familial relation.)

Phineas and Ferb, one of Disney's best animated series as we all know has wrapped up. But lo and behold, there will still be the O.W.C.A.

If you're not fond of pop music, not updated with the twitter trends, couldn't care less about the Billboard and iTunes charts- or the local radio station where you tune in hasn't played Stitches yet, then you probably wouldn't know this *awesome*newcomer that is taking the charts by storm!

Philippine Horror Movies and the Spine-Chilling Legends Behind Them
I'm not a horror fan. In fact, I'm almost as skeptical as the next person when it comes to believing things that we can't see with our own eyes, or perhaps can't feel at a distance. However, we cannot ridicule people who do see or feel these spine-chilling phenomenons.

Goosebumps, Adrenaline Rush and Tears: Top 10 List of Great Filipino Films You Should Definitely Watch in Your Next Movies Night!
One thing that I really miss about being in the Philippines is watching telenovelas, because we have so many good ones! Not to mention the ridiculously cheesy romantic comedies with dramas. Moreover, we also have a whole range of diversity in our film industry. In general, movies can have a magical impact to the audience regardless of the age, gender, and perception. In the Philippine Box Office, a potential hit are the ones that consist of a stellar cast, directed by the industries' finest,with moral lessons or unforgettable love teams. That's the conventional pattern and it applies to all genres.

3 Sequels to Cult Movies That Never, Ever Needed to Happen
Sequels. Sometimes they're better than the original film as a continuation of a story or a start of a new chapter, but most of the time, these spin-offs could potentially butcher the integrity of the original film, because that's basically what they are- rip-offs.
