Great docu

Watched this HBO Sports documentary series on GMA 7 last night. This is a must-see not just for Pacquiao or Hatton fans but also for media students out there. Great photography, great writing, great editing, great everything. This is a documentary you’d love to watch over and over again. (Watch the trailer from YouTube I posted in my video box here.)

By now you know that Pacquiao knocked out Hatton in just two rounds. (I still have to watch the match on free TV, though, as of “press” time.) Going back to the docu after the fight is like enjoying the icing on the cake.

And the Oscar goes to…

Caught the 81st Oscars beamed “live” (or so ABS-CBN said) on TV and decided to postpone going to the office. More so when A sent an SMS gloating about her being able to watch it live on cable TV while I had to work.

Since there wasn’t any urgent task to attend to in the office, I settled myself in front of the TV and worked on school stuff during commercial breaks.

And while there weren’t that many memorable moments in the awards ceremony, still it was a thrill to root for my bets. And all of them won: Penelope Cruz for Best Supporting Actress, Heath Ledger for Best Supporting Actor, Kate Winslet for Best Actress, Sean Penn for Best Actor, Danny Boyle for Best Director, and Slumdog Millionaire for Best Picture.

Applause!

Couch marathon

Bought and watched straight all 10 episodes of Skins Season 2. Great show, but too bad the next season has a new cast. But then everybody — except for Anwar — are off to Uni or somewhere. And too bad they had to kill Chris’s character.

Let’s see what Season 3 has to offer.
