Final Fight in Noah

I wish I have to swap vocal cords with Patrick Stewart (the actor in the X-Men movies and the voice of Zobek from Castlevania Lords of Shadow) just so I can tell you how will the final episode in ABS-CBN's fantasy drama, Noah, feels like:

And now the final battle is come. Ruth (Jodi Sta. Maria) is waiting for you, my friend. She knows what you have done. She knows everything. Ruth has hoped all this time that you would save the world and here you are on the brink of it. You stand upon a knife edge. She has kept faith in you despite everything, now you must fulfill your destiny and the truth will out. I will help you, old friend. I will be with you in this your moment of victory.

Anyway, this is how the Final Fight in Noah feels like:

As the world is now in chaos because of Judah (Joem Bascon), our heroes Gabriel (Piolo Pascual), Levi (Jolo Revilla), Jacob (Zaijan Aranilla), Nica (Xyriel Manabay), and the Ungtas are trying to save the world from Judah's chaos. As we remember from the Goddess of Earth, Gabriel's mission is to defeat Judah and save the world.

When Judah and his goons, with Ruth and Joshua, approaches to the escape plane, Gabriel approaches and the Final Fight has begun. As tensions rise, Jacob unexpectedly appeared and hit Judah with his slingshot and crossfires happened and the monster is killed. Gabriel tries to approach to his son but Judah killed Gabriel but luckily, Levi killed Judah. With the Elder Zatok retrieved the keys to the Last Paradise, Gabriel's family, along with the dying Gabriel approaches to the island of Noah. As they approached to the doors of the Last Paradise, the Ungtas finally closed the doors of the Last Paradise, saving the world.

Gabriel talked to the Goddess of Earth, Gaia, and the Goddess allowed Gabriel to reunite with his family. With that, Gabriel was miraculously alive, spreading joy to his family and the Ungtas.

After the world is saved, Gabriel and Ruth finally remarried and their lives are back to normal. This concludes the story of Noah and yes, we are going to miss the Ungtas.

An O.A. but O.K. Dodge Commercial

Check out this Dodge TV Commercial;




Based on what I observed on this ad, are we going to end up like this in case of unexpected snow? It's OK if the new third-generation Durango, Journey/JC Type II, and Second-generation (or Type-II?) Charger comes with ALL WHEEL DRIVE system. Without it, you're stuck forever in the urge of SNOWPOCALYPSE!

It's weird to see people panicking in case of snow but this is how it happens.

Kuya Jobert ties a neck tie

All right! Kuya Jobert's Damoobs is at it again on the February 4 episode of Banana Split Daily Servings! When a man (Badji Mortiz) approaches to Kuya Jobert and asks him that he can't tie a necktie. Kuya Jobert shows him how to tie a necktie. It's true that he can't tie a necktie if he didn't own one. He gave him his own "one-step" necktie! LOL

There's no way Kuya Jobert can't be that funny! :-)

Another thing funny is Magic Singh's Leaf Magic that turns it into "Pocket Money" wherein the leaf is now in the guy's wallet!

Loveplus meets HALLS



You may remember Nene Anegasaki, one of the three Loveplus gals and also the gal who made the headline where a Loveplus player, Sal9000, married this character.

She's part of the Loveplus-HALLS collaboration, promoting the new flavor of HALLS exclusively in Japan, the HALLS Pink Grapefruit flavor.


On that video, the development team talked to Nene what will their next HALLS flavor feels like. Nene said that this new HALLS flavor needs to be sweet and delicious. When they give her something, she tasted it and it was like wow!

PERFECT MATCH!

In the eyes of a Konami fans, this is the HALLS flavor in Japan that made it "Nene Anegasaki's Personal Preference" for sure.

Never knew this made it a headline when this Japan-only new HALLS flavor was made to be Nene Anegasaki's personal preference, even if Nene has a liking over lozenges. Everyone loves lozenges because they are like candies to them.

This new, Japan-only, Halls flavor is already on sale since the end of January 2011. Those people in Japan looking for this flavor should find on their nearest groceries and convenient stores.

I heard that Nene Anegasaki may be featured on the wrapper this summer 2011.

The best of both worlds!

Camaro TV Commercials...

In time before Super Bowl XLV, General Motors' Chevrolet brand unveiled two commercials; one is that you can't mess with an Autobot Bumblebee, and the second that what if a female driver is in the Camaro.




See what I mean?

The ad from the top resembles more like a dealer ad, when a mascot smack the Camaro with a fake hammer, the Camaro turned into a Bumblebee (as we know it) and caused trouble. Never mess with Bumblebee, I mean, a Chevy!

The second has some commentary, it imagines what will the Camaro commercial will look like; driving on the desert, a woman drives a Camaro, on the city streets, evading the hays, car chases, and ended parking on the school. Now that's imagination!

Teens who left Shoutout...

I watched the Thursday episode of Shoutout Level Up, it was disappointing to me to see teens who were part of the Shoutout family let go by the staff because of their hectic schedules. Those who left Shoutout are:

Piero Vergara- part of the new fantaserye Mutya

Yen Santos- part of the new fantaserye Mutya

Joe - part of the new fantaserye Mutya

Jenny Kim - to continue her studies

Ryan Bang - he's a part of Banana Split and Matanglawin, currently as judge in Showtime, and host of Studio 23's 3OW POHWZ

Julia Montes - She's busy being the new Clara in the high-ranking drama, Mara Clara

John Manalo - He's a part of Mara Clara

Kathryn Bernardo - She's busy being the new Mara from Mara Clara

ULTIMATE WHEELS

ULTIMATE WHEELS

The title says it all, Ultimate Wheels is the title of the song used on the new Suzuki Solio starring none other than famous J-Pop Boy Group, KAT-TUN! Not only KAT-TUN fans are going to go gaga over KAT-TUN's latest single, this is targeted by car enthusiasts everywhere because this is the Suzuki new Solio's theme song!

The ULTIMATE WHEELS maxi single CD packs not just the ULTIMATE WHEELS song, which is the Suzuki new Solio's theme song, but also includes three songs saved for KAT-TUN fun such as TWO, MAKE-OR-BREAK, and 夜明けまで. If you're not into these three, I suggest the song ULTIMATE WHEELS is the best pick. My recommendation is to play this new KAT-TUN song on the new Suzuki Solio and let KAT-TUN sing your way while driving the new Suzuki Solio all over Japan! This is going to be one heck of a good time road trip with you, KAT-TUN, and the new Suzuki Solio! Enjoy!

Pimple? Let Alpha Beth help you!

Oh yes! Another Alpha Beth in the February 3 episode of Banana Split Daily Servings! When a guy wakes up in the morning and all of a sudden, he saw a pimple on his face! Ahh! Don't fret! Alpha Beth's here! The word is "PIMPLE" and replace P with D and presto! It's "DIMPLE"! His pimple's gone and now it's just a dimple!

Oh wait! The Banana Split magician, Magic Singh, is here again and he's showing the Coin Magic to the woman. Not only the coin disappeared but also the woman's hand! MAGIC!

A special web anime movie created in collaboration between Fuji Heavy Industries and GAINAX

Of all the automobile manufacturers created web specials that made car enthusiasts interested for more such as BMW Korea's BMW Meets Truth starring Rain, Lexus CT 200h's Dark Ride, Toyota Mark X Samurai Code drama starring Koichi Sato, True Power Should Be Shared starring the Aston Martin Rapide, Audi A1's The Next Big Thing starring Justin Timberlake, Kia Motors' The Lotze Identity starring Kim Joo-Hyuk, Nissan Note's Teinenpi Shoujo Heidi, and other web specials made possible by automobile manufacturers, it seems that Fuji Heavy Industries joined the bandwagon for a very special web special to keep fans of the Subaru brand alive and kicking by offering a short anime film titled Houkago no Pleiades (日本名:放課後のプレアデス)

Subaru and GAINAX presents Houkago no Pleiades


Created in collaboration between Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. (behind the Subaru brand), and GAINAX, this special web movie made its debut in February 1 ,2011 and wow! This is the first time a famous Japanese carmaker team up with a famous Japanese anime studio for a surprise treat for Scooby fans all over Japan. I guess its true that Love is what makes a Subaru, a Subaru, especially this web special!






When I first peeked on this web special, it was like OH MY! This web special is a sweet as a full tank of 100-octane gasoline! As a web special created in partnership between Fuji Heavy Industries and GAINAX, there are some Subaru-related references on this 4-part short anime film;

1) The main character, Subaru (すばる) is from her namesake, the brand itself.

2) The opening of a door using a key is somewhat like you're turning the ignition key on

3) Hear the engine start-up on the magic staff? That's the sound of the boxer engine, the pinnacle of Subaru engineering.

4) The shafts Subaru, Aoi, Itsuki, Hikaru, and Nanako used were derived from Subaru models. Look closely at their shafts on this short film and it has something similar from the Subaru trademark grille.

Subaru's shaft was derived from the Fifth-generation Subaru Legacy
2010 Subaru Legacy Touring Wagon

Itsuki's shaft was based on the Forester
2011 Subaru Forester

Aoi's shaft was based on the third-generation Subaru Impreza
2011 Subaru Impreza 1.5i-S Limited (Special Edition)

Nanako's shaft was based on Subaru's Touring 7-seater, the Exiga
2009 Subaru Exiga

Hikaru's shaft was based on Subaru's latest compact, the Trezia
2011 Subaru Trezia

5) The areas marked on the bus stop were the names of areas Subaru manufacturing plants located, most notably, Ota, Gunma.

My impressions about this Subaru x GAINAX collaboration short film is tremendously superb. Two worlds combined to create something sweeter than a full tank of 100-octane petrol! Most Scooby fans wowed upon peeking at the web special, Houkago no Pleiades. This short anime film reprises the new Subaru slogan "Confidence in Motion" to a completely new level. I guess Houkago no Pleiades is the automotive web special that ends all automotive web specials since 2009's Nissan Note Teinenpi Shoujo Heidi and 2010's Toyota Mark X Samurai Code drama!

Thank you Fuji Heavy Industries and GAINAX for making this short anime film possible! I guess the words "Love is what makes a Subaru, a Subaru" came to reality! (Applause)

True Power Should Be Shared

Aston Martin Rapide '11


Aston Martin's first premium sedan, the Rapide, is quite possibly the best premium saloon built for those who are sensing lap of luxury. Because of the success, the Rapide starred on the special three-part web movie titled "True Power Should Be Shared" made possible by Aston Martin. Trust me, I saw it. It was quite a thriller for this Aston Martin Rapide web movie.




Best web special for the Aston Martin premium saloon, the Rapide. A soon-to-be-Bond-car without the famous James Bond himself performed how thrilling and fun-to-drive it is before you whisk your way back at the beginning! How's that? Impressed?

Juana Change takes satirical aim on PNoy's Porsche?



Looks like the "PNoy's Porsche" is somewhat a so-called HOT ISSUE but a political satirist named Juana Change (Mae Paner) pokes fun on PNoy's Porsche.

What a hilarious take on the President's upcoming sports car that caused a hot issue all over the Philippines.

Heh, looks like a Presidential Porsche got us spilled on that satire but I'm sure this satire pokes fun on this...HOT ISSUE.
