The End Is Here!


IMDb: President Ashton (William Hurt) is attending a global war on terror summit in Spain. Thomas Barnes (Dennis Quaid) and Kent Taylor (Matthew Fox) are two of the Secret Service agents assigned to protect him. This is the first action that Agent Barnes has been in since he took a bullet for President Ashton six-month earlier. We really dont know if Agent Barnes is up to the challenge of protecting the President. Shortly after President Ashton is escorted to the stage in the plaza by the Secret Service, he is immediately shot twice by a rifle from a window and falls to the floor. The crowd is in shock and chaos breaks out all over, especially, when bombs begin to explode. Howard Lewis (Forest Whitaker) is an American video-taping the event to show to his children that he was actually there at this historic event. He believes that he has the picture of the man who shot the President. Agent Barnes sees the tape and has a clue to that person. Several different people witness the event, and only through their eyes do we see the truth behind the assassination attempt.

I loved every moment of the movie! I was at the edge of my seat and for the first time I didn't care that my Ryan wasn't holding my hand. It's a must see!


A few months back, I wrote THIS. Most of those who took the time to read it agreed and sympathized. I didn't even know it'd cause a stir. But I know there are still quite a few who were skeptical about whether I was doing that to defend myself. God knows I was unmindful of what other people are saying about me. I said I will never waste my time again on a now 30-year old virgin but BEJ BID HIS GOODBYE and I just want to thank him for confirming everything that I had said. Khai, you were justified and you need not fear the devil's wrath. She's down.

If you're too impatient to read the whole thing and you're curious as to how this affects me, here's why..

How dare you incite my friends to go up against me. You gathered them, you tried to marginalize me by banking up on their ill feelings towards me. You encouraged them to shun me and to confront me. You took it to yourself to speak on their behalf, in the guise of a pacifier. Let me tell you this, I was more than aware of your desire and intent to make me into another Claudine, and frankly I don't care. I just wanted the guys to think for themselves and listen to what I had to say. It is never hard for me to take what people can throw at me, to accept what they have to say and work with that to come up with an understanding. I guess you did not foresee that your plan backfired on you. What were you afraid of? That I will be able to upstage you? I already did that long ago, you never shone brilliantly anyways. You were just good at basking on other people's reflected glory.

How dare you plot against me. You thought I never noticed that you tried to make me not go with you during the Malapascua trip? You tried your best to force me not to go. You were never helpful that time, but I got my way, didn't I? What about the Siquijor trip? You thought you had it in you to block all possible means for me to be able to come with you guys. But you never expected that Claudine would give me the opportunity to be there. That was why you were so hot in pursuing the pep-talk or intervention that happened there. Everything was done on your own machinations. But I guess I can let that pass since I know that there were issues that needed to be aired and resolved.

You're one of the most selfish person I have ever had the misfortune of knowing. You show everyone how "good" a friend you are; you help them fight their battles, you provide enticing gossips, you show them a "good time" - but one false step and then your ugly real self comes out and you do everything in your "power" to alienate them or turn them into social outcasts.

Moral lesson according to ateh, [read the comments] "kung mangaway, ayaw dungan2x or mag bonding imong mga g.away!"
