Joseph Bitangcol sheds his teenybopper image and goes sizzling sexy in Joel Lamangan’s Walang Kawala!

Synopsis: Joaquin (Polo Ravales), an unassuming fisherman, is forced to confront his homosexuality when his sex-starved wife Cynthia (Althea Vega) returns from her overseas job eager to get pregnant. His young and impulsive lover, Waldo (Joseph Bitangcol), flees to Manila in disgust. After a month of hesitation, Joaquin leaves his wife to follow Waldo. His search takes him on a seamy yet colorful trip through Manila’s gay underbelly.

Rufo lures Joaquin into his home and introduces him to his submissive wife, Beng (Jean Garcia). (more…)

Quicktrip by Cris Pablo

Movies and Music 9 comments

When it comes to intelligent movie reviews with a gay slant, I leave it to The Bakla Review (TBR). He gives the movie an A-minus rating, which for me says I got to watch the movie. (And I thought I won’t ever watch a Cris Pablo movie again after surviving that harrowing “SEB: Cybergame of Love” movie he premiered at Cinemalaya.) Here’s what TBR has to say about Cris Pablo’s Quicktrip (formerly entitled “Quickie”):

The scenes are breezy, observant, and direct, some of the best in Pablo’s ouvre, or in any of the gay movies this year, with brisk editing and the wistfulness of Isha’s minimalist music. There’s not much actual sex or nudity, but the director’s original cut (one you can’t see in commercial theaters) includes an onscreen cumsh*t by Andro Morgan. Seemingly simple, with a soulful core, Quicktrip has magic.

Was browsing through the Wordpress trinkets and logs of my blog, and found that the top search term here in MGG the past 30 days is “Coco Martin.” Well, what else can I do but give in to this justifiable public demand. So here’s Coco, people, as he appears in the X-ray 2008 calendar…

Available in Booksale and CV Magazine… X-Ray Calendar 2008 is a must-have! Here are some of Mike Tan’s daring photos in the calendar. These photos do not do justice with what you can see (and feel? hehehe!) when you see the original images in the large-format printed copies.
