adventures in neverland

there's a pandemonium going on in manille about thai heartthrob mario maurer. so i am reposting this. mario is a chameleon, which is what a true actor should be. he can be the sweet, boy-next-door type or manly and sexy, brooding or charming. ah basta. but whatever mood he's in, he never loses the sex appeal and the gorgeousness that won him a heavy following all over asia. manille, i think, is among the last to fall in luv with his charms. it's about time he conquers manille where he has quite a few admirers ever since   he  appeared in that sad, poignant, cuming of age gay luv story  luv of siam.  after watching that film,  mario maurer  had me at mar. since then, i would search for any latest news about him on google and luckily, there are write ups about him in english, either on blogs or on newspapers. last i heard, mario will be in town to shoot an ad for local clothing brand penshoppe (the same firm that earlier brought goss...

just because you have seen both the (deliciously fabulous) original and the (unbelievably lousy) 2011 remake of joey gosiengfiao's campy  temptation island  and almost all of the local indie sexploitation movies that portrayed the stereotypical gays (parlorista, effiminate, cross dresser, pimp) and their typical luvers (call boy, macho dancer, masahista, estudyanteng walang pera, provincianong ambisyoso, durugista) does not make you a pink cineaste. i don't pretend to be one (pink cineaste, gagah), but i have seen some really good films about gays (or pink films) from all over the world. charrr!! here are some of the noteworthy ones. take note that most of the actors who portrayed gay roles in the following films were (and still are) big stars in their own countries. in the case of brokeback mountain, both jake gyllenhaal and the late heath ledger are well known globally being products of hollywood's multi-billion dollar star factory. what i am trying to say is...

it's about time he visits manille where he has quite a few admirers ever since   he  appeared in that sad, poignant, cuming of age gay luv story luv of siam.  after watching that film, mario maurer had me at mar. since then, i would search for any latest news about him on google and luckily, there are write ups about him in english, either on blogs or on newspapers. last i heard, mario will be in town to shoot an ad for local clothing brand penshoppe (the same firm that earlier brought gossip gurl's ed westwick. how i wish penshoppe had signed up the gorgeous and hunky chace crawford instead of the petite and ordinary looking ed.) there were also reports that mario might do a movie for star cinema. i hope they come up with a better script and fabulous leading lady (not that anorexic and talentless kim whatever please!) for him. he deserves nothing but the best. otherwise there will be chaos. haha. here are some pics of mario through the years that i found on th...
