Anna Faris desperately in search of a husband in the sexy comedy "What's Your Number?"

Potato On the Go:

Noted for her canny portrayals in comedy films like Scary Movie and House Bunny, Anna Faris this time plays the role of a single lady desperately in search of a husband in the sexy and risqué romantic comedy What’s Your Number? opposite the equally hot Chris Evans.

Tapping the taboo in adult conversations on the number of sex partners, “What’s Your Number?” initially introduces us to Ally Darling (Faris) on a quest to find a husband. Ally is a delightfully flawed woman who has just read in a magazine article warning that women who have had relationships with 20 or more men are unlikely to settle down and get married. In a panic, she realizes that she has reached her limit and instead of looking for a new boyfriend, she decides to revisit her 19 exes hoping to find the ideal one. Assisting her on this quest is her attractive neighbor Collin (Evans).

A Courtesy Call to Davao's Monarch, the Phlippine Eagle

BAYANIHAN REPUBLIC:

I've frequented Luzon and Visayas but even if I hate to admit it, I've never landed in Mindanao.  The planned vacations (Davao City) and even work related trips (Basilan, Davao City and Cagayan de Oro City) never pushed through, whether they were always being rerouted to another location or plainly canceled.  But this time, I made sure the plan finally pushes through.  And lucky enough, I was Mindanao bound, via Davao City!

Well, the trip was primarily for work but I tried to look for a window of opportunity to make a side trip, at least for what Davao is most famous for since I really have a very limited time.  And unfortunately, I can't also extend this time around as I have something to do immediately the day after my flight back to Manila.

After a series of radio guestings (DZMM, Bombo Radyo and RMN) and lunch at Harana, I headed to one of Davao's prides, the Philippine Eagle Center!  =)

Laughing at Ourselves! -- Horrible Bosses Movie Review

Potato On the Go:

The first time I heard about and saw Horrible Bosses, I knew I could relate to it.  Well, without naming names, I've been like Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis, I've been through different monsters haha.  And I strongly feel I am not alone that's why I think Horrible Bosses can be a big hit, especially among its target market.

Horrible Bosses talks about the plight of three career driven men who are unlucky with their respective work environments.    Management candidate Nick Hendricks (Jason Bateman) has been logging 12-hour days and eating everything his twisted supervisor Dave Harken (Kevin Spacey) dishes out, toward the promise of a well-earned promotion. But now he knows that’s never going to happen. Meanwhile, dental assistant Dale Arbus (Charlie Day) has been struggling to maintain his self-respect against the relentless X-rated advances of Dr. Julia Harris, D.D.S. (Jennifer Aniston), when she suddenly turns up the heat. And accountant Kurt Buckman (Jason Sudeikis) has just learned that his company’s corrupt new owner, Bobby Pellit (Colin Farrell), is not only bent on ruining his career but plans to funnel toxic waste into an unsuspecting population. What can you do when your boss is a psycho, a man-eater or a total tool?

What they did with their bosses, with the situation is something that you need to witness for yourself in the movie house!  =)

From Billionaire to Robber, Jesse Eisenberg leads bank robbery in 30 MINUTES OR LESS

Potato On the Go:

From the role of Facebook billionaire Mark Zuckerberg, actor-on-the-rise Jesse Eisenberg this time plays an under-achieving guy who has to put aside his epic falling out with an ex-bestfriend in order to rob a bank, in Columbia Pictures' new, action-comedy “30 Minutes or Less.”

In the film, Nick (Eisenberg) is a small town pizza delivery guy whose mundane life collides with the big plans of two wannabe criminal masterminds (Danny McBride and Nick Swardson). The lowlifes kidnap Nick and strap a time bomb to him – with the promise that they’ll blow him up unless he robs a bank. With only a few hours to pull off the impossible task, Nick enlists the help of his ex-best friend, Chet (Ansari). As the clock ticks, the two must deal with the police, hired assassins, flamethrowers, and their own tumultuous relationship.

After a long exhausting work week, I somehow looked forward for my Saturday to be something different and oh yeah, fun hehe.  I really needed that break or I'll really end up insane.  Well true enough, my weekend got a tweak when I received an invite from Solar Entertainment to the press conference of the American Idol Live!

Avatar's 3D technology used in Glee the 3D Concert Movie

Potato On the Go:

You ask, 3D in a concert movie?  Yes, Glee the 3D Concert Movie is in 3D, and not in any ordinary 3D technology as it employed unparalleled 3D system used in “Avatar” to bring the audience right in the middle of a premium 3D experience rooting for their idols from the immensely popular ‘Glee’ television series.

“Glee The 3D Concert Movie” director Kevin Tancharoen closely collaborated with 3D pioneers and “Avatar” makers James Cameron and Vincent Pace to bring 3D into fruition while filming the concert during their sold out tours. Taking into consideration the waves of 3D movies that came out after “Avatar,” Tancharoen made sure that the 3D experience will be worth the audience will pay for in watching “Glee The 3D Concert Movie.”
