Atlantika: an Aquatic Kingdom

Atlantika is a kingdom of aquatic beings. These aquatizens are originally from a galactic planet who found a new home on earth but had to settle beneath the ocean because of their aquatic nature. They are stronger under the water. Their kingdom is built inside a dome powered by the "polaris". During the full moon, the polaris rises at ocean level as an island in order to be re-energized by the moon. After the full-moon phase, it descends back to Atlantika to energize the dome. What the mortal folks see when the Polaris rises is an island. They call this island "Luli", which means "lulubog, lilitaw" (descending, ascending). They have created several superstitious beliefs related to this island.

Atlantika is ruled by a King with his Queen. It has a Maharlikan Council that administers the kingdom and its aquatizens called Atlantikans.

Endless Love - A Filipino Adaptation of Autumn in My Heart

Courtesy pinoyhalo.com "Autumn in My Heart" is a Korean TV series. When GMA Network aired it on Philippine TV, it started a trend. Pinoys went gaga over Koreanovelas. GMA renamed the characters as Jenny, Johnny, and Andrew. The three Korean stars became popular in their character names rather than in their Korean screen names. GMA7 also gave it a new title - "Endless Love" - for the reason that there's no autumn in the Philippines. Today premieres once again Autumn in my Heart aka Endless Love but this time as a Filipino adaptation starring Marian Rivera, Dingdong Dantes, and Dennis Trillo. Three superstars in one show! It's surely a hit. If I were to rewrite some scenes in Autumn In My Heart In general, I enjoyed the pilot episode of Autumn In My Heart. I particularly like the scene where young Johnny and Jenny ride their bicycles on a long brick road fenced with bougainvilla bushes. I give praise to whoever found that place. The school location w...

The Final 5

Daryl Celis' rendition of "The Promise" was OK. His past two performances were better. In this episoded, Daryl talked to his dad over the phone after 4 years of not seeing him. His mom used to call him "idol" when he was a child. Gretchen Espina is a member of UP Singing Ambassadors. Kid Camaya did a vocally-good version of "Careless Whisper" by George Michael. He has around 25 siblings. Jayann Bautista was shaky at first when she sang "Finally" but recovered during the latter part. Ram Chaves, as expected, rocked again with Francis M's rap "Yugyugan". Ram's performance is the best among the five. As usual, he was confident on stage; he was performing, not competing. He has a character. He has a band called "Sutil". I would rate Ram with 5 stars (best). Kid and Jayann deserves 4.5 stars. Daryl and Gretchen, 4 stars. Indeed, they have improved a lot.

Etheria Ends

Today, the 50th episode of Etheria ends in order to begin a new chapter in the world of Encantadia. Etheria (from the word ether, the fifth element) was the 5th kingdom of Encantadia. Its goddess was Ether, who fell in love with Arde, a fellow god - a forbidden relationship. For that reason, they was punished by the god Emre. Ether was transformed into a snake; Arde, into a dragon. Ether, being powerful, was worshiped by the citizens of Encantadia. Such adoration gave birth to the Kingdom of Etheria. Emre, Ether, and Arde were not actually from Encantadia. They were banished from their own world - the world of gods. During a war between the good and revolutionary angels, these three gods sided neither with the good nor the revolutionary. They preferred to be allies of either camp which was not acceptable to the government of gods. For that reason, the minister of the angels banished them from the spiritual world and sent them to Encantadia - a spiritual world on earth. Lured by selfish...
