Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children Complete
As many people (including me) thought that Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children (2005) and Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children Complete (2009) were very similar, my friend Ronald Guanzon discovers it as it has a new story line, new visuals, new scenes and as well as new characters. According to wikipedia, the Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children Complete has a 20-minute extra movie which is the "Case of Denzel".
I really can't wait to watch this one.

Holy Week in Philippines
In the Philippines as the only dominant Christian country in Asia, Holy Week would mean “obligation”. People would take this opportunity to reflect on their faults and in different ways people express their commemoration of the passion, death and resurrection of Christ. Combined primitive traditions to modern day expression of faith is practiced all over the country.
Holy Week begins with Palm Sunday, the Church celebrates the coming of Christ into Jerusalem. At mass, Filipino church goers bring palm fronds to be blessed by the facilitating priest. After the mass they bring it home and placed in front doors or windows, it is believed to be protection from evil spirits that would want to enter their homes.
Holy Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday these days mainly commemorates Jesus Christ's entry to Jerusalem until his very Last Supper. Holy Monday starts the traditional “Pabasa”, chanting of the passion, death and resurrection of Christ. Nowadays modern tunes are acceptable to draw children closer to the tradition.
Maundy Thursday then is all about the Last Supper itself Christ being with his eleven apostles. During this time Catholic devotees usually perform “Visita Iglesia”, visit different churches and prays the Stations of the Cross. During Maundy Thursdays also people do reenactment of the Washing of the Feet of the Apostles.
Good Friday is commemorated with street processions, and plays about the Seven Last Words and Passion called “Senakulo”. In Pampanga, Senakulo highlights their contribution to the season. Their celebration is consisted of people who are doing their “Panata” (vow) each year as their thanksgiving to their answered petitions.
Black Saturday, as it is called in the Philippines, was observed with great silence. People perform vigils as they await for the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Easter Sunday starts with the “Salubong” (meeting), the reunion of the Virgin Mother Mary with his son Jesus after his resurrection. At Pre-dawn people gather and join the procession to their town church and hear mass.
No matter how much intact we are with Christianity, we all have our own expression of faith. We have traditions to celebrate but we should not forget our personal relationship with God every single day. May every Holy week just bring us even closer to him and tends us to do things for his glory.

Leaked Version of X-MEN ORIGINS lacks 10 Mins.
Leaked Version of X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE Lacks 10 Mins. of Entire Movie
20th Century Fox through its local (Phils) distributor Warner Bros. would like to inform the public that CD/DVD and online copies of X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE movie which was recently leaked online is an incomplete and very rough version.
Fox Co-Chairman Tom Rothman issued an official statement ensuring the fans and moviegoing public that the leaked version is indeed an early rough cut, with temporary sound and music and a darker appearance than the finished footage.
Rothman's statement notes that "The version that went out is unfinished. It's about 10 minutes shorter, doesn't have key scenes, it wasn't edited, and none of the effects shots were in any remotely final form. It's a complete misrepresentation of the film and is deeply unfair to the people who have worked on it for years."
Rothman is touting a bunch of footage shot in Canada earlier this year that he says is not even included in the version online. And he insists that both he and Hugh Jackman have vowed to stop at nothing to get the movie out to as many fans as possible. "Hugh was heartbroken and hurt when he found out. He's lived with this thing for 10 years. But he's also a man and knows that life isn't fair, and is more determined than ever," Rothman says. "Hugh and I exchanged e-mails: Basically, we're not going to let the bastards win. But we didn't use the word 'bastards.' That's a slightly sanitized version."
Likewise, fans and supporters of the movie in the Phils. have affirmed that the leaked version is more like watching behind-the-scenes of X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE. It is worthy to note that in unison, those who have come in possession of the unfinished version vowed that they will still definitely see it on the big screen when it opens April 30 (in Phil. theaters) since most of the scenes have unfinished, rough 3D special effects, blank frames, dull moments due to muted speaking lines and sound effects and the appearance of blue dots in every scene from start to end.
X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE will bow to theaters across the Philippines on APRIL 30 from 20th Century Fox to be distributed by Warner Bros.
