Women, Power and Money: PUSOY on VIVAMAX

Just got off the advanced premiere of the film PUSOY starring Vince Rillon, Angeli Khang, Baron Geisler, Janelle Tee and an ensemble cast. The popular card game isn't actually that known quite as much elsewhere so having this in a movie intended to be shown in film festivals had me a little worried. It might not be able to get that part of the game understood. Though between that concern and how this could be an interesting story line, Director Phil Giordano had us all at the edge of our seats and left us all asking, what would happen next?!

This is an action, drama, suspense film but set in the Philippines. Vince plays the role of Popoy, a very doting son. Married but still in the home he grew up in because he couldn't make ends meet as he supports his folks, his wife and kid too. Under circumstances that he couldn't control, he had to work for a gambling lord (played by Baron Geisler, an intense man at that). He takes commissions doing favors and finishing rivals in the dens they go to. Janelle and Angeli's character on the other hand are card sharks, and if you put two chicks in one bowl... the claws come out. That starts a whole other conflict not just in the game, but their relationships.. and their lives changed. 

Here's our coverage of the private screening on video, enjoy!

I wouldn't want to spoil things for you, but definitely... a lot different from the usual Filipino flicks we see in cinemas. The material was worked on successfully by Direk Phil Giordano and Direk Brillante Mendoza. This will be shown this May 27th on VIVAMAX so make sure you download the app and subscribe to see this and other titles on their library. The film also had a tough premise, if you had no choice... would you do something illegal if lives were at stake?!

You can purchase subscription credits via online stores, if you're up to it, you'll definitely love the story.

These are exciting times!

Goodyear Unleashes Wrangler Triple Max

Spent the evening at Goodyear Wrangler Triple Max Launch over at Green Sun in Makati. I saw Goodyear APAC, Asia and Philippine executives discussing how important the Philippine market is for their brand. A roadtrip has that unique ability to make the family, the community close and Goodyear has been a good part of Filipino motorists. They are gearing towards making it more affordable, but not discount quality which they have done through the years. Now, they're making that roadtrip even more special by launching the Goodyear Wrangler Triple Max!

Goodyear executives have announced how they carefully made this tire withstand the elements in a tropical country like ours. They know we have special needs. For superior breaking performance, improved wet weather driving control, road hazard resistant, they made the Wrangle Triple Max with innovations that also came from their technologists and consumers like us. They asked, and they know thay the mid sized SUV is a special segment and it is what families need in places like these. It is dependable, sage and has that Hydro Grip Technology so you get superior brake performance, so you eventually would worry less and just enjoy driving.  

That peace of mind is insurmountable and can only be given to you through quality products. The ASEAN and the Philippines is growing and purchase of cars will happen even more in the next few years. They have seen growth already and it might not stop in the next few years. The cavity design, tread compound and architecture of materials, you can depend on Wrangler Triple Max just like its predecessors because they know why safety is your number one concern when you drive with your family.
