Rebyu: The Hangover

Excited ako kan pelikulang The Hangover ta tuminabo kaya ini nin sangkatutak na kwarta sa box-office, an saiyang production budget na $35Million[plus $40M marketing] vis-á-vis worldwide gross na $ 346Million.  Grabeh!  Instant elite an direktor na si Todd Phillips, igwa na nin greenlight an sequel kaini.  Iyo na ini an sleeper hit nin 2009 kun iku-kumpara mo sa big budget asin hype kan ibang blockbusters na Transformers II asin Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Pero naraot su impresyon ko pakatapos madalan subanggi – nangalas pati ako tano ta nagin huge hit ini!  Iyo na ini an gusto kan mga paradalan ngonian?  An plot niya medyo unusual [four buddies who got high on roofies in Las Vegas during their bachelor party and totally forgot what they’ve done the night after, their misadventures while searching for  the missing groom] … moronic su pelikula and seriously bitin su mga ngirit ko, an ibang scene brutal (stun gun) asin panó nin raway (R-17) ini.  Su tolong major character na sinda Phil, Stu, and Alan  iba-iba an personalidad asin mga hang-ups sa buhay pero marhay man si performances kaini.  Su tossing of condoms na supposed to be very funny maluya su dating sako.  Su role kan Las Vegas cops garo mga engot – nainsulto pati an paborito kong TV series na CSI ta highly intellectuals an lead cast digdi.  Garo man sana ini idtong pelikula ni Judd Appatow  kan 2007 na Superbad – mas marhay pa ngani idto ta teen-ager su mga bida. Sa Yahoo Movies an average rating kaini halangkaw A- (16,148 ratings) asin B sa critics reviews.  Uyon sa review ni A.O. Scott kan New York Times sa saiyang C+ na rating.

Para sako pwede na — 2.5 of 5 stars.  Dae lang ako makatubod kan box office receipt kaini.

Sebastian Kruger

Pinorbaran kong koloran su saro sa mga sketches ni Sebastian Kruger using Painter 9.  Ibang lebel an saiyang art – magnum opus.  I have seen his works and I was awestruck.  An talento na arog kaini is God-given to a few select individuals, he just perfected his art at school pero sa hiling ko even without formal education he will still be an excellent illustrator-painter.  Dae ko na tinapos si sakuyang pag-kolor ta makasupog ki Sebastian tibaad ma-anggot pag nahiling niya an ginibo ko — kaya si Lead Belly WIP ini.

Hyperrealism an saiyang genre asin paborito niyang medium is acryclic paint, an grupong Rolling Stones na amigo niya lalong-lalo na si Keith Richards an kadaklan kan saiyang subject.   An lalawgon garo kaya ni Keith Richards is deep and complicated pareho kan ki Charles Bronson.  You can visit his [site], [blog], and [wiki].

Chris Wahl

Saro sa mga pina-ka-gusto sa internet, you have a never-ending  supply nin mga bagay-bagay para maka-hiligan.  Saro na diyan si Chris Wahl, premier illustrator, na-a-gihan ko lang an saiyang site while browsing for online sketches.  Boy! I wish I was this good.  An saiyang gallery — da best!  I colored his James Dean caricature using Painter 9 on a TGIF.  After minutes of indecision … voilá! It’s still a WIP though.
