The Ecto1, a 1950’s ambulance, speeds through Manhattan traffic, chasing after an elongated ghost. Inside, the Spenglers argue how to best catch it.

Finn Wolfhard (Trevor): What else do we need in the backseat? Windows are stuck! Mckenna Grace (Phoebe):  I can open the door?  Everyone in unison: No! No! No!

Phoebe: What Callie?? Callie: You call me mom! Gary: You call me Gary! [Hesitates] Whatever you want. Phoebe: We’re gonna lose him. Callie: Phoebe Spengler you stay inside this car!

Phoebe: I have a ghost to bust! [Opens the side door and extends the gunner seat]

Gary: Alright that was cool. Callie: Gary! Gary: It was the way she said it was. . . . it sounded cool. Callie: Get back in here! Phoebe: I can’t hear you over the sound of the nuclear accelerator! She fires a proton ray at the blue dragon and lassoes it. The entity crashes on a corner of a building, goes through other side. Pulling the photon ray through a street sign and slices it.

As a fan since the original, I can say that FROZEN EMPIRE is the most terrifying Ghostbuster movie. Don’t get me wrong the laughs are there. Paul Rudd makes sure of that. But this time Kumail Nanjiani is also here with his usual annoying, self-centered, idiot schtick. That’s why he’s funny as Nadeem.

IMAX

Ghostbusters is a movie that combines a lot of action with laughs and this time horror, most successfully here in FROZEN EMPIRE. Of course, the best way to view it is either IMAX or 4DX.

IMAX Theaters give you a screen that’s about 3-4 times bigger than the typical cinema. And the images are superior. IMAX Theaters locally include: IMAX SM Aura Premier, IMAX SM City Cebu, IMAX SM City Clark, IMAX SM Lanang Premier, IMAX SM Mall of Asia, IMAX SM Megamall, IMAX SM North Edsa and IMAX SM Southmall.

More Winston Zeddemore

It’s not necessary to have seen Ghostbuster’s AFTERLIFE (2021). But useful to know that Ernie Hudson Jr (Winston Zeddemore) has become a billionaire philanthropist who purchased the firehouse for Egon’s daughter (Callie) and grandchildren.

Refreshing for Hollywood to put a black man in a successful position of power. And appears like the most natural thing in the world when minorities are represented well. FROZEN EMPIRE continues that, giving Ernie Hudson more screen time as one of the central characters. Unlike the original version where Hudson’s scenes were cut in favor of Bill Murray’s role Peter Venkman.

Gil Kenan as Director

FROZEN EMPIRE is the first time a GHOSTBUSTER is presented as having a lesbian or homosexual relationship. It wasn’t something contrived but was more based on realism and current times.

Credit the writing team of Jason Reitman and Gil Kenan, who are back too, switching roles as director. Gil Kenan is now at the helm as director in a film that honors GB’s original director Ivan Reitman who passed away 2022 at age 75.

Harold Ramis and Ivan Reitman

AFTERLIFE made a touching tribute to Harold Ramis (Egon Spengler) who also passed away 2014. You can see the influence of both Ivan Reitman and Harold Ramis in the current versions of Ghostbusters.  Upon Ramis’s death, then-President Barack Obama released a statement, saying, ‘When we watched his movies—from ANIMAL HOUSE and CADDYSHACK to GHOSTBUSTERS and GROUNDHOG DAY—we didn’t just laugh until it hurt. We questioned authority. We identified with the outsider. We rooted for the underdog. And through it all, we never lost our faith in happy endings.”

GHOSTBUSTERS AFTERLIFE was dedicated to creator Harold Ramis (Egon Spengler). Watch GHOSTBUSTERS FROZEN EMPIRE at Ayala Malls Manila Bay Cinemas, Ayala Malls Glorietta, Greenbelt Cinemas, Ayala Malls Trinoma Cinema, Ayala Malls Circuit Cinemas. Log on to

Jason Reitman has stepped out of his father Ivan’s shadow as filmmaker and has added to his own legacy in AFTERLIFE and FROZEN EMPIRE. The original creators of Ghostbusters are Ivan Reitman, Harold Ramis and Dan Aykroyd.  Aykroyd is also back as Ray Stantz, operating an occult book shop. Along with Bill Murray (Peter Venkman) and even Annie Potts (Janine Melnitz).

Grace McKennan

But enough of the oldies, the energy and appeal of FROZEN EMPIRE is in the new generation. The dynamic of a family is what gives it heart and relatable twist. Grace McKennan as Phoebe is the young 15 year old, trying to find her way as a teenager and as a full-fledged Ghostbuster. Although she has more than enough brains and guts to be one, society doesn’t see it that way. Grace is 17 summers young in real life.

Calling HANDMAID’S TALE a heavy drama is an understatement and has more than developed her acting chops. Phoebe here is also a complex role. A teen going through love and identity. The lesbian romance is more hinted than actualized, especially for someone so young. I’d consider Ghostbusters STILL very much a family movie.

Finn Wolfhard

Finn may be the most logical casting choice in Ghostbusters, since AFTERLIFE. He is one of the main characters in NETFLIX smash hit STRANGER THINGS. Which is set in the 1980s where a group young friends do battle with creatures from another dimension called the Upside Down. Sounds like the younger version of Ghostbusters which had its first film in 1984.

The young fans of the series, would naturally gravitate towards Ghostbusters and that’s what happened. AFTERLIFE was such a hit in its U.S. opening weekend ($44M opening totaling to $122M in domestic gross) encouraging Sony to produce more Ghostbusters movies. Now FROZEN EMPIRE has improved on that success.

Finn has that young rockstar vibe with long curly hair, gaunt face and Keanu / Ashton Kutcher appeal. He plays Trevor, the eldest son of Carrie. Although 3 years older than Phoebe, he’s a little bit dumber. But also funnier. Trevor’s trying to gain his parents’ trust with adult responsibilities. One of which is driving Ecto1.

The Ecto1 is back with a new gunner seat; Watch GHOSTBUSTERS FROZEN EMPIRE at SM Manila, SM Megamall, SM North Edsa, SM Aura Premier, SM City Cebu, SM City Clark, SM Lanang Premier, SM Mall of Asia, and SM Southmall. Log on to

Lucky and Podcast

Rounding out the new young squad is Celeste O’Connor (Lucky) and Logan Kim (Podcast).

Lucky is part of the Paranormal Research Center owned by Winston. Podcast, is ironically, the podcast and video producer of Ray Stanz. So happy to see Logan Kim as an Asian rep in the GB team, another first. He was also in KUNG FU PANDA 4 and THE WALKING DEAD: DEAD CITY.  My own favorite addition is Patton Oswalt as Dr. Hubert Wartzki a language expert based in the New York Public Library.

New Entities

Coming from the scene above, there’s the Hell’s Kitchen Sewer Dragon. A long elongated ghost creature. One of the interesting and scarier entities is the ‘Possessor’. Instead of taking humans it is able to take control of objects. That has terrifying consequences.

Pukey (pronounced pyukee) is a short creature that spews ectoplasm to those who think he’s adorable. The spelling of his name is remarkably similar to the Filipino slang for female genitalia. BOTH Pukey and Possessor are in the Hasbro toy line, Fright Features.

Slimer has gained weight eating more snacks! Watch GHOSTBUSTERS FROZEN EMPIRE AT Robinsons Galleria, Robinsons Magnolia, Robinsons Ermita, Robinsons Starmills, Robinsons Tacloban, Robinsons Metro East, Robinsons Antipolo, Robinsons Gapan, Robinsons Iloilo and Robinsons Pangasinan. Log on to:

Our old favorites are all there: Pilsbury Doughboy Mini-Pufts and Slimer. Although Slimer has gained some weight and may be called Fat Slimer.

He’s been eating even more Cheetos and of course, since we’re in the Philippines: Jack and Jill Chippy, Potato Chips, Chiz Curlz, Calbee Honey Butter, Wasabi, Hokkaido Crab&Cheese Potato Chips…

… Might I add, perfect for the movies.

ANCIENT PRODIGAL in Photos

Photo and Suggestions

By Jude Bautista

Suggestion 1: Alternate line – After an eternity of tits, pussy, ass, cock, animals, objects, fucking everything and everyone over, what else is there but salvation?

Admissions Supervisor Lucky Gammad, Jamie Wilson (Jesus Christ), Director and playwright Manu Respall and Zach Pracale (Lucifer).

Suggestion 2: Instead of telling everyone who the roles are, just have them talk without names. Let the audience figure out who Christ is and who is Lucifer and why. So then the play forces them to think even more.

Horrifying and Mystical EXHUMA

Kim Go Eun (Hwa Rim); Watch EXHUMA in Robinsons Galleria, Robinsons Magnolia, Robinsons Ermita, Robinsons Starmills, Robinsons Tacloban, Robinsons Metro East, Robinsons Antipolo, Robinsons Gapan, Robinsons Iloilo and Robinsons Pangasinan. Log on to:

Written by

Jude Thaddeus Bautista

Kim Go Eun (Hwa): Never seen a grave site at a mountain peak, that’s weird. Do you know this mountain? Choi Min Shik (Sang Deok): Never been here before. Hwa: I thought you knew every inch of this land? Sang Deok: I only seek pristine plots.

Through the trees they see some foxes approaching from a distance. The foxes stare intently and howl at them. Sang Deok crouches low to the ground. Reaches down to pick a handful of soil. Puts some in his mouth and tastes it.

Yoo Hae Jin (Young Geun): What an incredible view! North Korea is visible from here. You see that? The grave is quite plain for this grand plot.

Sang Deok examines the gravestone, removes moss and grass covering the writings.

Young Geun: Something there?  Sang Deok: There’s no name. [turns to the client,  Mr. Park] Is it possible to know who found this plot for you?

Park: A famous monk at the time found the most auspicious plot. Because my grandfather made a contribution to the country, Gisune.

Sang Deok: Gisune? That’s a unique name. Park: The tombstone there seems plain due to rampant grave robbers. They decided a nondescript one. Hwa:  Let’s finalize the deal. Is something off?

He walks nervously towards Park. Sang Deok: Mr. Park I don’t think I can take this job.

Young Geun: He’s doing this again? Hwa: He’s being so dramatic. [runs towards Sang Deok who is nearing his car] Is it really that bad? Is there no way? Why aren’t you talking?

In the car Young Geun: We’ve got a great deal what’s the matter? You know how much this job pays. What’s going on?

Sang Deok: I’m sure you all understand, what happens if you mess with the wrong grave. I’ve been finding plots for more than 40 years. This one is a plot I’ve never heard of. Its vile. No human should ever be there. Dealing with it could get everyone killed. Do you understand? Hwa Rim, you saw the foxes. Foxes at a grave site is an ominous sign. It’s the vilest plot.

EXHUMA is the latest Korean blockbuster to conquer the world. It earned 10 million admissions, (that’s actual number of viewers). In Korea that’s the way they measure box office sales which seems to make sense. And is the highest grossing film of 2024.

It has also topped box office returns abroad, namely Indonesia and Vietnam. Here in the Philippines its going head to head with KUNG FU PANDA 4 also at the top tier.

EXHUMA is both horrifying and fascinating. Goes deep into Korean traditions of the afterlife and then turning that around. Showing the wider perspective of Asian beliefs in Feng Shui, the soul, possession and demons. Hitler and the Nazi’s fascination with the occult has been put on the screen like HELLBOY, even CAPTAIN AMERICA. EXHUMA harkens to the Japanese Imperial Army’s use of the occult in World War II, however dramatized, fictionalized.

Award Winning Cast

Primarily, most people watch movies because of the stars. After drawing you to the theater, you soon find out there’s so much more to EXHUMA’s story which deals with Korean history, religion, tradition and culture.

There’s Kim Go Eun from huge hit K-Drama series GOBLIN and Choi Min Shik of OLD BOY. And current heart throb Lee Do Hyun coming fresh off the success of HOTEL DE LUNA and SWEET HOME. Lee recently won Best Actor in a Special or Short Drama at the 33rd KBS Drama Awards (2019).

Mysterious Deaths

Kim Go Eun (Hwa Rim) and Lee Do Hyun (Bong Gil) are young Shamans gaining a reputation for their powers of communing with the dead. They get an assignment to go to the U.S. to help a well to do, Korean American family. The prospective clients have had a history of bad luck with first borns mysteriously dying (in spite of their wealth).

Park who is a new father, hopes the two can help. Hwa senses an older spirit around the young baby. Suggests it’s a ‘grave call’, from an ancestor or great grandfather. Suggesting there’s a problem with the site that has to rectified. Hwa, however, recruits geomancer Kim Sang Deok and undertaker Ko Young Geun for the job.

Parallelisms with PH History

Hwa gains her ability to see souls through her own experience with her grandmother. This is very similar to the Filipino tradition of the albularyo (literal translation: healer). They usually gain their powers from an older relative, just like Hwa.

Kim Go Eun (Hwa Rim); Watch EXHUMA in Shang Rila Plaza Mall, Lucky Chinatown Mall, Eastwood Mall and Newport World Resorts.

The entity they battle in the story is a metaphor for Japanese atrocities in the second world war. That were also similarly, experienced here. In a way, the grandmother who is a spirit guide for Hwa, could also be a metaphor for the plight comfort women in Korea, Philippines and other countries.

In the story, collaborators, traitors to their native country who assisted Japan during the war acquired, wealth. Said to be rewarded by the Japanese government. Which is the same experience here. Among them a prominent family given land titles in the Roppongi district of Tokyo.

Watch EXHUMA in Shang Rila Plaza Mall, Lucky Chinatown Mall, Eastwood Mall and Newport World Resorts.

The belief of sacrificing pigs and chickens as a way to appease spirits are in several scenes in EXHUMA. And is a very prevalent practice among indigenous peoples in the Philippines like the Kalinga, Ifugao and Manobo.

Kim Go Eun’s Evolution

Kim Go Eun’s portrayal of Lee Hwa Rim, shows her growth and evolution as an actress. There’s steely determination in her eyes. She uses intellect, powers of observation as Hwa Rim. But she can also be tempestuous.

Pinoy audiences fell in love with her as teenager Ji Eun Tak in GUARDIAN: The Lonely and Great God, retitled here simply as GOBLIN. She practically grew up in our eyes via THE KING ETERNAL MONARCH (2020), YUMI’S CELLS (2021) and LITTLE WOMEN (2022).

For more details log on to Nissin Instant Noodles PH fb

Go Eun has earned countless awards: 2016 Baeksang Best New Actress (CHEESE IN A TRAP), 2012 Blue Dragon Best New Actress (EUNGYO), 2022 Blue Dragon Best Leading Actress (YUMI’S CELLS), and most recently 2023 Marie Claire Award for HERO. EXHUMA could easily earn her another Best Actress award, not just in Korea but internationally.

Choi Min Shik Intensity

Choi Min Shik has long been considered as one of the best actors of his generation in Korea. But the world witnessed his mind bending performance in OLD BOY. He was a man trapped in a cell for years as part of a complex scheme of revenge. The madness, anger he showed was unforgettable. That’s the same intensity he brings to this role although toned down to be more fitting as geomancer Sang Deok in EXHUMA.

In some ways the character represents Feng Shui itself as throwback to an older generation. More concerned with tradition, superstitious beliefs. Sang is just trying to survive in a modern world. Although, Feng Shui, still seems to have a stronghold in Korea, at least in the movie.

For Filipinos Sang Deok also resonates physically, like Go Eun. He has a strong resemblance with late Business Titan John Gokongwei Jr., because of the salt and pepper hair and large frame. For whom the 24 hour convenience store chain UNCLE JOHN’S is named after. His initials grace JG SUMMIT which also has interests in real estate: ROBINSONS LAND, food: NISSINS, Jack and Jill and even airlines: Cebu Pacific Air.

“We return to the earth when we die. As we drink and eat from that earth, we live die and are born again in a cyclical nature. In other words dirt and earth connect and cycle everything through those who are living. To the top 1% Feng Shui is a religion and science. I am a fengshui expert. I find soil for the dead to live in. I am geomancer Kim Sang Deok.”

AC for READY SET GLOW

AC herself was there as the official face of cosmetics brand READY SET GLOW. While the MONEY performance blew fans away, most wanted more. Some were expecting her to perform her single 4 MYSELF released last year under Star Music. The official music video released  July 2023, features rising star Jameson Blake.

After the performance she was interviewed by former UAAP / OnePH correspondent Martina Lao. During the interview she shared the brand goes hand in hand with her live performances. Her make up looks perfect even through sweat and heat. So much so that it prompted Martina Lao to comment, “I am here up close with AC, looking at her make up, everything is perfect. The eye liner, the eye shadow, ang ganda AC.”

AC said,“Ako feel ko po talaga READY SET GLOW pag nasa stage po ako. From back stage I did my own make up with READY SET GLOW. I really do enjoy doing my own make up. Make up is very therapeutic for me. It’s like I’m painting my face. That’s why backstage during my make-up, I can go on stage showing everybody the fierce AC.”

For more details log on to GCash fb:

Use Different Colors

Her advice is to not be afraid to use different colors and shades, “One thing I’ve learned to use more often are colors. They are so inclusive of everything. There are so many colors available. The eyeliners, the gel liners, the eyeshadows. I like to play with colors when I use make up.”

Rest and Laughing as Therapy

One of her secrets to looking great is to make sure she gets ample rest and enough sleep. “Pag may time pa po ako na tutulog po ako. Long rest for sure. Also finding what recharges you. I like to be with my friends. Pag may time po ako, I just laugh and laugh and laugh with them.”

Martina then asked, “What message do you want to convey to young people about confidence and self-expression to your role with READY SET GLOW?”

Buy READY SET GLOW at Watson’s, SM Beauty in SM Supermalls and Look At Me shops in SM Aura and SM Mall of Asia.

AC replied with a self-affirming message, one of confidence that you should be happy with who you really are. “One thing I can say for READY SET GLOW is be your badass self! Be who you wana be. Do what you want to do. DON’T let anyone judge you.”

Immediately after the Q&A, AC went to the READY SET GO area of Beauty Con. Where she not only met fans but hugged them and grabbed selfies and groupfies.

Target Pro by Watsons – Developed and made in Japan
When it comes to your skincare routine, how important is serum to you? Using a moistened lotion and cream may not be adequate for your skin, especially if you are above the age of 25. The serum is a concentrated liquid containing active compounds that target specific skin conditions; it aids in absorption by your skin. Serum can treat or protect your skin from various skin concerns, including ageing and dehydration. It’s an important step in any beauty routine that should not be overlooked because it can target specific skin conditions and unlock the serum’s potency.

Ukraine’s DARKEST HOUR

Gary Oldman (Winston Churchill); 2018 Oscar winning film DARKEST HOUR depicted the difficult decisions faced by nations under the threat of war. Directed by Joe Wright and Written by Anthony McCarten; Photo from FOCUS FEATURES youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Vul9-ToKuk&t=355s

Gary Oldman (Winston Churchill):  Now let me ask you all something– which has been weighing on my mind. Perhaps you can provide me with an answer. The British people. What is their mood? Is it confident? YOUNG MAN: Very.  OLD MAN: Some people say it’s a lost cause.

WINSTON: Lost causes are the only ones worth fighting for. Now let me ask you this–if the worst came to pass, and the enemy were to appear on these streets, what would you do?

For more details log on to GCash fb:

YOUNG MAN: Fight. MIDDLE AGED WOMAN: Fight the fascists! OLD MAN: Fight them with whatever we can lay our hands on! IRISH WOMAN: Broom handles if we must!

YOUNG WOMAN: Street by street! WEST-INDIAN MAN: They’ll never take Picadilly!

WINSTON: Ha!Ha! Never Picadilly indeed!

The public laugh. WINSTON SMILES, proud of these people – WINSTON: And what–what if I put it to you all–that we might, if we ask nicely, receive very favourable terms from Mr. Hitler if we enter into a peace deal with him right now? What would you say to that?

ALL: NEVER! NEVER! When SILENCE returns, one (young) voice chimes in, late –

YOUNG GIRL: Never!

WINSTON turns to look for the source of the voice and he sees, and moves toward, one YOUNG GIRL… WINSTON: Will you never give up? YOUNG GIRL: Never.

Touched, he crosses and sits down opposite the child. WINSTON (to YOUNG GIRL): “Then out spake brave Horatius, The Captain of the gate: To every man upon this earth Death cometh soon or late. And how can man die better Than facing fearful odds…

WEST INDIAN MAN: …for the ashes of his fathers And the temples of his gods.

Everyone is moved. WINSTON, himself, has tears in his eyes. He wipes his eyes with a handkerchief. YOUNG GIRL: Are you crying? WINSTON: I blub a lot. You’ll have to get used to it. The TRAIN stops. WINSTON: What stop is this? MIDDLE AGED WOMAN: Westminster. WINSTON: That’s my stop.

The scene above is from DARKEST HOUR, directed by Joe Wright and written by Anthony McCarten. Which won Best Actor (Gary Oldman), Best Make Up and Hairstyling (Kazu Hiro, David Malinowski, Lucy Sibbick) at the Oscar’s and BAFTA in 2018. The usually svelte Oldman was transformed to the rotund Winston Churchill convincingly.

Darkest Hour | Winston Churchill Takes the Tube

Real Genius

Anthony McCarten is a New Zealander who has written the screenplays of some of the biggest hits the past several years including: BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, I WANA DANCE WITH SOMEBODY and THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING.

The real genius is timing. DARKEST HOUR was released 2017. Two full years prior to Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Neither Wright not McCarten knew at the time such a thing would happen. Some expected it. But was very much a surprise until it actually did. The film however, in many ways puts to screen the difficult decisions by nations when faced by the grave threat of war.

Fight On?

DARKEST HOUR describes the period where Great Britain was under attack from Nazi forces who have recently conquered France. This was when Prime Minister Winston Churchill had to make the best decision for their interest. The period is identified as the 1940 British war cabinet crisis. DO they sue for peace in an attempt to save British Troops’ lives trapped in Dunkirk and Calais? Also to ensure the safety of British civilians by preventing more attacks/ bombings by the Luftwaffe?

It really was the DARKEST HOUR where even the strongest convictions of Churchill couldn’t stand in the face of imminent threat. Even he was conflicted. SHOULD he save more lives, the troops trapped in Dunkirk and sue for peace? And ultimately the lives of British civilians? As his own cabinet was insisting on.

For more details log on to GCash fb:

OR do they fight to the last man? Knowing very well it would cost lives?  Knowing they should stand up against the evils of a dictator ready to rule not just Europe but the world. Was it a sacrifice they were willing to make? It’s not always crystal clear. NOT black and white. Especially when so many lives are at stake. The Viscount Halifax and Neville Chamberlain wanted to prevent even more lives lost in their fight with Germany.

JUST LIKE today, in what’s happening with Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, not everyone is convinced that he SHOULD be stopped.  Trump himself, proudly proclaimed in a speech he would let Putin do what he wanted to a NATO member. These are the same questions that Ukraine, the United States, yes, United Kingdom, France NATO nations are CURRENTLY grappling with.

That’s why Sweden, traditionally and historically neutral has also joined NATO, a day before President Biden’s State of the Union address.

Whose Genocide was worse?

The parallelism, however, between Vladimir Putin and Adolf Hitler is clear. BOTH are dictators, have a history of genocide. Hitler systematically executed millions of Jews throughout Europe along with homosexuals and the infirm. Both Hitler and Putin also famously executed political opponents. The most recent example of Alexei Navalny being assassinated in prison via poison, hogging the headlines.

Most have forgotten that Putin was caught bombing his own people in order to justify war against the Chechen in 1999. FSB agents were caught by Russian police planting bombs that Putin attributed to Chechen separatists. FSB is the intelligence agency Putin used to head prior to becoming President. The ensuing war caused Russian forces to commit massacres, rape, extra judicial killings:

“Western European rights groups estimate there have been about 5,000 forced disappearances in Chechnya since 1999. Dozens of mass graves containing hundreds of corpses have been uncovered since the start of the Chechen conflict. As of June 2008, there were 57 registered locations of mass graves in Chechnya.” Source: Second Chechen War  wikiwand

This is way before the current Ukrainian genocide, where Russian forces are not only accused of killing civilians. ‘Kyiv estimates that at least 19,500 Ukrainian children have been deported and forcibly displaced from their homes to Russia and Russian-occupied territories since the full scale invasion began in February 2022, and of those only 388 have returned home.’ Source BBC.com:  Ukraine’s missing children tracked down in Russia by digital sleuths

Democracy vs Tyranny

History, allows us to look at the past and helps us to identify mistakes. Where things could’ve been done better. The U.S. was a superpower reluctant to join WWII. Until it was forced to do so by the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Who knows, had America joined the war sooner, maybe, lives could have been saved in both France and the U.K.?

In the film, Churchill phones FDR begging for ships, arms, planes, anything that would help them fight the war. Roosevelt, as U.S. President, was facing pressure to bolster the economy, after The Great Depression. It was almost impossible for anyone to justify America going into a war in Europe at such great costs.

This black and white photo is of President Franklin D. Roosevelt fishing in a stream, accompanied by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. The presidential retreat during Roosevelt’s administration was known as “Shangri-La” but was renamed by President Dwight D. Eisenhower after his grandson and is still known as “Camp David.”

Even today, Democracy is an abstract concept. One of the ways for you to know who you are as a nation is to identify who you are not. Democracy is about the people electing their leaders, a free press, the rule of law. A dictatorship is about one man rule, the suppression of free speech, and sometimes a lust for power that boils over to the invasion of other countries.

Japan Forced America’s Hand

So the invasion of Germany into Poland, Czechoslovakia, France is a threat to democracies around the world. The failure of America in recognizing it as a threat against democracies everywhere (not just Europe) is something that you can only learn looking at history.

What happened next? Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. Japan was part of the Axis forces, an ally of Germany and Italy. Thus forcing America’s hand in joining World War II. Eventually, Thank God, the Allies won: Great Britain, France, U.S. which our own country the Philippines is part of (as a U.S. colony at the time).

Proclamation for Human Rights

The lessons of the second world war, created not only NATO but the United Nations. The international rules based order emerged from the ashes as a way to prevent the horrors of war. One of these was an effort to recognize human rights, regardless of nation, creed or religion (1948). Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Preamble: Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world,

“Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people”, Read full declaration here: https://www.ohchr.org/en/human-rights/universal-declaration/translations/english

Forgetting the Lessons

It’s very easy to forget lessons of the past. They are ideals, the values we are supposed to hold dear. Why do we believe in them? Why is democracy important? Once you lose it, may never come back. Especially when, those who WANT tyranny, intentionally make the people forget those lessons of the past.

Ever wonder why book banning has been a priority for so called Republicans? Because they want to deny America’s racist past. They want people to forget the history of slavery. Connected to their desire to remove democracy and the efforts of the civil rights movement. Connected to their obsession with the ‘Big Lie’.

Three Dictators or is it Five?

The trend towards dictatorships and misinformation has spread world-wide. Even in our shores. Former President Duterte, proudly proclaimed that he would throw the hard fought victory of Hague Decision ‘in the wastebasket’. This was when (the late) former DFA secretary Albert Del Rosario led a legal team to fight for the Philippines in the international court, versus the invasion of China in our waters AND WON. Guess what? They violated the UNCLOS, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.

The People’s Republic of China was found guilty of violating the international rules based order by invading and taking for its own, waters in the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone. Many were speculating WHY Duterte would do such a thing against the interest of his own country. Was it because of his adulation for Chinese President for life Xi Jing Ping? And another big surprise, Duterte publicly idolized Vladimir Putin.

Powerful State of the Union

That’s why President Biden’s State of the Union, speech was so powerful. It resonated, not just with Americans but everyone around the world. He was able to express, simply but forcefully the urgency of the situation of Ukraine, why the world should help. He expressed the confluence of democratic ideals and its historical significance.

That’s why I chose to include the beginning of that speech here. Read the full transcript in this link from TIME.com: Full Transcript: Read President Joe Biden’s 2024 State of the Union Address

Meanwhile read the beginning of Pres. Biden’s State of the Union, March 8, 2024

Here:

In January 1941, President Franklin Roosevelt came to this chamber to speak to the nation. He said, “I address you at a moment unprecedented in the history of the Union.”

Hitler was on the march. War was raging in Europe.

President Roosevelt’s purpose was to wake up the Congress and alert the American people that this was no ordinary moment.

Freedom and democracy were under assault in the world.

Tonight I come to the same chamber to address the nation.

Now it is we who face an unprecedented moment in the history of the Union.

And yes, my purpose tonight is to both wake up this Congress, and alert the American people that this is no ordinary moment either.

Not since President Lincoln and the Civil War have freedom and democracy been under assault here at home as they are today.

What makes our moment rare is that freedom and democracy are under attack, both at home and overseas, at the very same time.

Overseas, Putin of Russia is on the march, invading Ukraine and sowing chaos throughout Europe and beyond. If anybody in this room thinks Putin will stop at Ukraine, I assure you, he will not.

But Ukraine can stop Putin if we stand with Ukraine and provide the weapons it needs to defend itself. That is all Ukraine is asking. They are not asking for American soldiers.

In fact, there are no American soldiers at war in Ukraine. And I am determined to keep it that way.

But now assistance for Ukraine is being blocked by those who want us to walk away from our leadership in the world. It wasn’t that long ago when a Republican President, Ronald Reagan, thundered, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.”

Now, my predecessor, a former Republican President, tells Putin, “Do whatever the hell you want.”

A former American President actually said that, bowing down to a Russian leader.

It’s outrageous. It’s dangerous. It’s unacceptable.

America is a founding member of NATO the military alliance of democratic nations created after World War II to prevent war and keep the peace.

Today, we’ve made NATO stronger than ever.

We welcomed Finland to the Alliance last year, and just this morning, Sweden officially joined NATO, and their Prime Minister is here tonight.

Mr. Prime Minister, welcome to NATO, the strongest military alliance the world has ever known.

I say this to Congress: we must stand up to Putin. Send me the Bipartisan National Security Bill. History is watching.

If the United States walks away now, it will put Ukraine at risk.

Europe at risk. The free world at risk, emboldening others who wish to do us harm.

My message to President Putin is simple.

We will not walk away. We will not bow down.

I will not bow down.

History is watching, just like history watched three years ago on January 6th.

Insurrectionists stormed this very Capitol and placed a dagger at the throat of American democracy.

Many of you were here on that darkest of days.

We all saw with our own eyes these insurrectionists were not patriots.

They had come to stop the peaceful transfer of power and to overturn the will of the people. January 6th and the lies about the 2020 election, and the plots to steal the election, posed the gravest threat to our democracy since the Civil War.

But they failed. America stood strong and democracy prevailed.

But we must be honest the threat remains and democracy must be defended.

My predecessor and some of you here seek to bury the truth of January 6th.

I will not do that.

This is a moment to speak the truth and bury the lies.

And here’s the simplest truth. You can’t love your country only when you win.

As I’ve done ever since being elected to office, I ask you all, without regard to party, to join together and defend our democracy!

Remember your oath of office to defend against all threats foreign and domestic.

Respect free and fair elections! Restore trust in our institutions! And make clear—political violence has absolutely no place in America!

History is watching.

*-*-*

Taiwan is another flashpoint ripe for invasion, this time by China.

The Taiwanese people themselves have been readying themselves.

I am heartened by a recent poll where Filipinos are willing to fight for their country, if and when called for by an even more intrusive invasion also by China. Some are speculating that PROC, is bolstering its position in West Philippine Sea as preparation for the Taiwan invasion.

What else can we do but find inspiration from the words of the Winston Churchill (also in DARKEST HOUR). His most famous speech that became known as:

WE SHALL NEVER SURRENDER

Turning once again–to the question of invasion–I would observe that there has never been a period in all these long centuries of which we boast, when an absolute guarantee against invasion could have been given to our people.

I have, myself–full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once more able to defend our island home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny –

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXIrnU7Y_RU&t=93s

If necessary for years, if necessary alone. At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty’s Government – every man of them. That is the will of Parliament and the nation. The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength.

Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France–we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island – whatever the cost may be.

We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; We shall never surrender, and if, which I do not for a moment believe, this island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old!

Written by

Jude Bautista

Javier Bardem (Stilgar) hands a thumper to Timothee Chalamet (Paul) for his final test. Stilgar: I tuned it myself. Don’t try to impress anyone. You are brave we all know that. Be simple. Be direct. Nothing fancy. Paul: Dying fancy? Stilgar: Hey, I’m serious. Nothing fancy or you will shame my teaching. Paul: I won’t shame you. I understand. Stilgar: Shame on me if you don’t understand or if you die.

Paul walks to the peak of a distant sand hill as Fremen watch. Souheila Yacoub (Shihshakli) mockingly dares him to summon a large worm. His fist beats the sand in rhythm. Then plants the thumper, the unstoppable call to a worm.

A desert storm rages from afar. Desert palms disappear underground, like an earthquake. Steadily moving closer. Stilgar panics when he realizes, it’s the biggest worm he’s ever seen. Tries to warn Paul ‘Not that big!’ By then he was too far and too late. Paul walked to and fro trying to gauge the proper distance and position.

A combination of an avalanche and a tsunami engulfed Paul, as he tried to fasten his hook on what the Fremen call a grandfather worm.

You can forgive rival armies, who are terrorized, dispersed with the sight of multiple giant worms about to consume them whole.

DUNE PART TWO, has exceeded all my expectations since DUNE. All battles, hand to hand combat, politics, intrigue are multiplied several times over. This is the fruition of what the first movie built on. A third movie, even a fourth are very much welcomed. As Frank Herbert’s DUNE saga is able to accommodate them all, with more than enough material.

Writer director Denis Villeneuve, has walked the fine line following the book and successfully expounding on it.

IMAX Hit

DUNE PART TWO has already doubled the preview sales of the first movie ($12.5M to  5.1M). The real surprise is that IMAX comprised more than a third of that figure. “Big-screen Imax showings made up $4.5 million of that huge haul.” Source: VARIETY – Box Office: ‘Dune: Part Two’ Makes $12 Million in Previews, More Than Twice as Much as ‘Part One’

In spite of the higher ticket price, fans flocked to experience DUNE PART TWO on IMAX. The giant worms causing so much terror on screen are made that much bigger and terrifying. The desert landscapes and battle scenes are made even more epic on a bigger, higher resolution IMAX screen. So if you’re a true fan or just want to experience DUNE PART TWO the best way possible this is it.

Rats To Trump’s Vermin

While Dune’s storyline and setting seems as far removed from our own as it could be, screenwriters Villeneuve and Jon Spaihts were able to make it immediately relevant. Starting from character design The Harkonnen are milk white in complexion with no hair. Could skin heads be an inspiration? The Fremen who inhabit Arrakis, were mostly cast with actors of African and Middle Eastern descent.

The Harkonnen, refer to the Fremen as rats. But it was Dave Bautista who plays Beast Rabban who seemed to scream ‘Rats!’ most intensely. An indication of how they perceive other intelligent races as subhuman. Or even worse, pests that have to be exterminated.

This echoes the recent speech of former President Trump referring to political opponents as ‘vermin’. A term originally used by Adolf Hitler referring to Jews and other migrants in Germany. Although, The Harkonnens are the actual invaders of Arakkis, the only planet which produces Spice. Fremen are the native inhabitants, not unlike the colonial experience of our world. Where Caucasian rulers exploit the natural wealth of nations they invade and marginalize original inhabitants. (Just like the U.S.)

Reverend Mother

Novelist, science fiction and fantasy pioneer Frank Herbert has to be recognized for his genius. Especially in assigning the highest religious figure in DUNE to women, called Reverend Mother. In his universe men are incapable of greater level of ‘awareness’. She is the leader of the ‘BENE GESSERIT: the ancient school of mental and physical training established primarily for female students’ from Dune.fandom.com

Advanced practitioners have special abilities like ‘voice’ which allows them to dominate the consciousness of anyone they choose. Reverend Mothers are the keepers of the memories of those before her. Each planet / race have their own Reverend Mother.

Women Warriors

Women in general seem to have a greater role. Among the Fremen are women warriors fighting alongside male counterparts. That’s what Chani is played by Zendaya.

Chani’s closest ally is Shishakli played by Souheila Yacoub. Shihshakli is one of the fiercest Fremen warriors. She was able to kill nine Harkonnen soldiers by herself. Souhelia’s early training as a rhythmic gymnast prepared her for the many physical combat scenes. She also happened to be Miss Suisse Romande winner in 2012. That’s the official Swiss candidate to the Miss Universe competition.

Psychotic Austin Butler

Austin Butler had a breakout role as ELVIS, earning no less than a Golden Globe, BAFTA Best Actor and Oscar Nomination. The sweet faced matinee idol may not have been the first name to come mind for the role of villainous Feyd Rautha. But he proved everyone wrong looking unrecognizable and being truly psychotic, as the Harkonnen killer. Another rock star in Sting was Feyd in the 1984 version of DUNE.

What DUNE PART TWO was able to achieve is to show more of the planets environ. Including a gladiator-like scene with Feyd showing off his hand to hand knife and sword skills. This is where the Filipino martial art Kali was certainly highlighted using two blades at a time. Similar to the Arnis, that’s more commonly practiced locally. Butler, shared in an interview he was working out with arnis even in his youth, which he made use of in this movie.

Lea Seydoux

French actress Lea Seydoux plays Lady Margot Fenring part of the BENE GESSERIT. Although a religious sect, some also have the role of bearing children. Using their powers of seduction when it suits their purpose.

Veteran actor Christopher Walken (Emperor) and Florence Pugh (Princess Irulan) of OPPENHEIMER should’ve had more scenes. Perhaps could be rectified in the next installment.

DUNE PART TWO answered a lot of the questions from the DUNE. But still leaves so much more to see in the third and maybe fourth movies.
