Hannah Montana: The Movie Philippine Release Date

Obviously, I have been waiting for a lot of movies to be shown in theaters here in the Philippines. And most of them will still make me wait for a loooooonnnnng tiiiiiimmmeeee. ("Up" anyone?!?! Two more months... Two more months...) Good thing that there's one movie that's going to be out already within the next two weeks that I'm also excited to see. But not on big screen though. Harhar. It's the Hannah Montana: The Movie! Release date of the movie in US was last April 10. But here in the Philippines, it's going to be on July 8. I have no plans of watching it in a cinema , but my brother, who has a huge crush on the lead star, Miley Cyrus, wants me to accompany him watch the movie in a movie house. Being a loving ate (hehe), I immediately said yes to his request. I have nothing against it, and besides, I used to watch the Hannah Montana series every weekends during its first season. I just wish time flies to July 8 already and I'll have some bonding time with my little bro, oh, he's not little anymore, make that, younger but big bro.

"Up" Movie Date was moved

As I was watching the DCOM premiere of "Dadnapped" here in the Philippines yesterday, the trailer of Disney Pixar's "Up" was rolled during a commercial break and the list of the movie's show dates in Asia was again flashed on tv. Luckily, I was able to see it. Thank God I was able to catch it. Why? Because the last time I saw the list, the movie's Philippine show date is already on August 12. But now, it is already on August 19!!! It's one week later than the previous date! Why do they keep on moving the movie theater show date here in the Philippines?!??! A friend even told me that it was to be released already last May but MTRCB keeps on postponing it! Why Oh Why??!!? This is already out of my control. I have nothing else to do but wait. Sheesh...

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Price Philippine Show Date

July 15, 2009. The world wide release of the much awaited Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, the sixth installment of the popular Harry Potter series, on big screen. It's a good thing that the release date of the said movie here in the Philippines is the same with the international movie show date. Being a Harry Potter fan, it is a must for me to watch this in a movie theater. Watching the movie's trailer alone is giving me goosebumps. In approximately 25 days, I'm off to the movie house with my friends to catch this box-office, high-grossing film (Well, I think it's going to be just that, I can foresee that a lot of people will see this on big screen, I just hope I'm not wrong. Hihi). Now, need to refresh my memory on what happened and the sequence of events from the books. Need to re-read the books from Book 1 to, at least, Book 6. I just wish I still have ample time to do and finish reading the books before July 15.

Disney Channel Original Movie: Dadnapped

One of things that I look forward to in watching Disney Channel is the Disney Channel Original movies. Sample of these are High School Musical, Camp Rock, The Cheetah Girls, just to name a few. These movies became such a hit that a lot of these movies' merchandise has been sold. That even High School Musical 3 was already made into a theater movie and was shown on big screen worldwide. Also, main cast of these high-rated DCOM (short for Disney Channel Original Movies) had the chance to tour the world and have a concert. To add to that, because of their popularity, you can just easily buy a DVD copy of those movies from your nearest typical record or video stores. I think these are the ones that were overrated, were given too much hype. But there are those that just remain 'silent', movies that maybe you will never hear of and never made it to have a DVD or even just a VHS release. Just like the upcoming DCOM, Dadnapped. I saw the preview last week and I am quite excited to watch it. It was already televised in US last February 16 and is going to be aired on Disney Channel Asia on June 21. When you are living in the Philippines or Malaysia it is going to be at 730pm.

Obviously, from the title alone, someone's dad's going to be kidnapped. And I assume that it's the lead character's dad (that's always the case isn't it?). That's all I know about the movie plot. Don't want to spoil myself by reading reviews. Besides, it's going to be this Sunday already. Waiting time is not that long.

The movie stars Emily Osment (Yep, Sixth Sense star Haley Joel Osment's younger sister), David Henrie, Jason Earles, Moises Arias and Phill Lewis. Such a star-studded Disney cast. I would love to watch Phill Lewis. He never fails to make me laugh when I watch The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. I also like the tandem of Jason Earles and Moises Arias in Hannah Montana. I also find David Henrie funny and cute in Wizards of Waverly Place. Even when he was still a kid and had a minor role in That's So Raven, he was already charming. With this kind of cast, this is a DCOM that I surely would not want to miss.

Disney Pixar's "Up" Philippine Show Date

I was watching Disney Channel Asia the other night, "The Wizards of Waverly Place" family sitcom had just ended, and while waiting for the next show to come on, the trailer of  "Up" was played. My God! Upon seeing the trailer again, I suddenly realized how much I wanted to watch the movie already! So sad it is not for another 2 months! After the trailer, the show dates for each Asian country was put on screen. And guess what, "Up"'s show date here in the Philippines is still on August 12! Imagine! August 12!  That's two more months of agony for me. I've been restraining myself from reading synopsis and spoilers, and even watching clips from the said movie since I don't want to have even a slightest idea of what's going to happen. For me it's more fun and exciting that way because you don't anticipate or expect anything. You would not prepare yourself  for the upcoming scenes. Your reactions and feelings towards every scene would be firsthand.

Well, I guess, I have no choice but to wait. Wait. And wait. And besides, what's another two months of waiting, I've been waiting since the day my eyes first laid on the poster and trailer, which was I think, way back March? I can't even remember. It's that long already.

Disney Pixar's Up

Can't wait to watch the upcoming Disney Pixar's movie Up on big screen! The reason for that being is, first, it's a Disney-Pixar film, and I, being a Disney fan, would never miss out a thing like this. Second , after seeing the trailer, I found the chubby boy scout boy very cute that I even want to buy a stuff toy of him afterward! The grouchy old man character also seems interesting. The way he does not want the cute chubby little boy scout come in his house then after a few seconds had changed his mind and decided to let the boy come in made me smile. And lastly, the film is getting a lot of positive reviews and feedback from those who have seen it already.

Though I don't have any idea what the movie is all about just by viewing the trailer, my excitement of rushing to the movie theater is not lessened by that fact. I just wish that I would not be disappointed once the end credits start rolling.

Up was in theaters in US last May 29, 2009. I wonder when will the showing date be here in the Philippines. I still have no idea.

Now, who am I going to ask and force to accompany me to catch it on big screen? People I know will just prefer it to watch on DVDs or online. I do not want to watch it alone!!! Think, think, think! I still ample of time.
