It might be the year for kabit movies as many of local movies shown were about this theme. But lets look on this new movie, A SECRET AFFAIR released by Viva Films starring Anne Curtis, Derek Ramsay, and Andi Eigenman.

Thought may be compared with other "Unfaithful" movies, its goes beyond expectations with showcasing a different approach with great cinematography, production design, and even very firery encounters.

California Pizza Kitchen in Binondo!

The Binondo/Divisoria area is becoming a new food hotspot with the opening of California Pizza Kitchen at Lucky Chinatown Mall. This is their lucky eighth restaurant and is also opening more soon. They bring the great flavors of California especially their famous Pizza (obviously), and also new additions to their menu (see some of the dishes on FudFyt Blog). Also with a whole new look for their restaurant is something refreshing and cozy like your in a summer vacation somewhere along the California coastline.

With also a number of their customers who dine in at their their other branches are Chinoys from Binondo, it would become more convenient for them to enjoy their favorite pizza reataurant without going beyond Binondo. 

Even with reinventing some of the looks and adding new dishes, they still keep the quality and flavor that made them a foodies favorite. I have not yet been to California, but it sure has this ambiance of the being there. With also a wide variety of dishes inspired with the diversity of culture in the state would always give you a reason to come back for more. 

By the way, they are also offering great deals for their menu which is perfect for individual and group meals so check out their website and facebook page now.

REEL DEAL: The Three Stooges - Will Sasso Q&A

WILL SASSO Q&A: THE BALD STOOGE KNOWN AS CURLY

The all-new motion picture, THE THREE STOOGES, in theaters October 24, is a contemporary take on a trio of time-honored boneheads. The film recreates the classic and iconic Stooge sound effects (including "boinks," finger snaps, and palm claps), haircuts and other Stooge-isms- -- while interweaving them with modern-day attitudes, situations and pop culture references.

In the film, we meet the Stooges as newborn "angels from heaven." That's how the nuns characterize the three toddlers left at their orphanage. But when one of the nuns, Sister Mary-Mengele, receives a fierce eye-poke from Moe, which catapults her into the next county, they suspect the new arrivals are anything but heavenly.

Now, years later, their Three Stooges have left the nuns bruised, battered and bewildered. Even worse, it looks like the orphanage will be forced to close its doors due to financial difficulties.  But Larry, Curly and Moe, employed as the foster home's inept maintenance men, are determined to come to the rescue. Their quest: raise $830,000 in just 30 days, or risk losing the only home they've ever known.

Kapuso primetime royalty Dingdong Dantes is very optimistic about the success of his upcoming horror film, "Tiktik: The Aswang Chronices," which will hit nationwide theatres last Wednesday, October 17.

The movie, directed by acclaimed filmmaker Erik Matti, is pioneering in its use of digital set extension via chroma key or "green screen" technology in all of its sequences.  The film, arguably the biggest horror film of 2012, is shot entirely in green screen and utilises a combination of live action footage and three-dimensional computer graphics (CG).

In his rounds of radio promotions for the film starting with GMA's flagship radio stations DZBB (AM) and Barangay LS 97.1 (FM), Dantes expressed pride for his film, which took more than a year to create.
