Watch for our August issue for the big-time return of Bakemono High. Why’s Max wearing a spy suit? What other character is getting a new look? And what new mysteries await our gang? Stay tuned! Our July ish is out too! |
For those who’ve been wondering where Bakemono High has gone (it last appeared as a full comic in February, then we had Bakemono Babies in April)…well, it just took a short break because Bakemono High creator Elbert got, among other things, an injured hand (youch!), but it will soon be back!

Wahooo! So yesterday, we watched the premiere of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, thanks to our good friends at UIP. After the movie, we had to pick our jaws off the cinema floor. Everything in the movie was just amped up to 11. I mean, if you thought the robot fights in Transformers 1 were kick-butt, wait till you see Optimus Prime face off against Megatron and Starscream. Our fave Autobot gets a bigger role in this one — too bad Bumblebee gets less screen time now — especially since Optimus…well, we don’t want to spoil it for ya. Sometimes, the humor can go overboard (a…bit…too…much…), but overall, the movie’s as funny as it is furious. We LOLed a lot. Ramona and Grace even screamed, especially in that part when Optimus…nah, we won’t spoil it for ya. If you’ve already watched the movie, sound off in the comments below! How’d you find it? |

…certainly looks very, very different from the show. Let’s see: there’s Indiana Jones-style adventuring, beach tans, a Stone of Dreams, and some sort of strange sci-fi-looking suit. This Disney Channel Original Movie was filmed in Puerto Rico — and yup, it certainly looks miles away from anything we’ve seen in the show. Let’s hope that’s a good thing! What do you think about the trailer? P.S. The trailer says it will show in August…well, that means in the States, of course. We’re asking Disney Channel Asia when it will premiere here. |

Last week, a new online game sneakily stuck into closed beta testing, and we were there at the launch. From iAM Interactive, the guys who brought Exteel to the Philippines (as well as Lineage II and Guild Wars), there’s a new kart racer in town: GoGo Racer. Now, we love us some kart-racing games — remember how the team got super-addicted to Mario Kart Wii last year? — but with Crazy Kart already out, I was kinda wondering what the point was of another online racer. Then I found out something interesting: the guy who made Crazy Kart also made GoGo Racer. Read the rest of this entry » |

Guess where Grace, Ramona, and I went last week?? We watched the Dunkin’ Donuts Dance Dunkdown at MOA and boy, did the semi-finalists rock the house down! We were totally floored by their ICY COOL (*wink wink*) moves! |
Hey, hey! Have you guys bought the June issue already? Well if you have, you’ll know that we featured surfing in this month’s Way to Play. What you don’t know is that Lio and I got to ride the surfboards, too! Yeehaw! (Well, I just tried mounting on it. Didn’t have the right gear to slide the board through the waves. Bummer!) So instead, I took videos of Lio hitting the waves, literally! Heehee. Naw, he did good for a first timer! Just ask Coach Lorraine and Coach Ejay! (THANKS FOR TEACHING US! :D) Watch the videos to see how Surfer Dude Lio did! TAKE ONE: A FOR EFFORT! TAKE TWO: TOO NEAR, EEP! WATCH OUT, DUDE!
Hmmm…now I’m a little envious. Should’ve tried that myself. *whispers* I was too chicken. *whispers* Haha! Oh well, there’s always a next time! |

Disclaimer #1: I love Rock Band, but I’m more of a Guitar Hero dude myself (played/owned all GH games — even the finger-busting DS ones, haha — except GH 1 and GH: Metallica). Disclaimer #2: I’m not a huge Beatles fan. But there’s a reason why the Beatles are THE great pop band of the last century…whatever your age, whatever year you were born in, you instantly know: they made great music. And the trailer for The Beatles: Rock Band looks absolutely, absolutely stunning. Check the gameplay video here: Wow! Three-part harmonies! Voicing in a music game! YEEEESSS! Then, check out this amazing intro: Wow! Wow! WOW! |

WHOOPS! We made an awful mistake in the June 2009 Pop Zone article, and mistakenly spelled American Idol finalist Matt Giraud’s name as “Matt Gerald”. Very, very sorry! |
