K-POP DEMON HUNTERS: WHAT SONG IS THE BEST?

Image
What a year it's been in the movie industry this 2025! So many things happened. It was a series of unexpected events. Top of that list is the iconic, the undefeated, the so-good-you-watch-it-on-repeat! K-Pop Demon Hunters Source: Savoy Before we continue, I want to answer your question. Yes, this review is pretty tardy for an animation that came out five months ago. However, fans don't seem to have gotten over it. The world is still talking about it. So I like to think that I'm just on time. For anyone yet to watch this tasty slice of gimbap , which is very unlikely if you have little siblings, K-Pop Demon Hunters is a musical and action animation. It was released as a Sony Spectacular on Netflix in June 20, 2025 . That glorious day saw the birth of a new era for Kpop, the Golden Era. Produced by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans , K-Pop Demon Hunters stars a Kpop girl band with singers Rumi , Mira and Zoey who have another life behind the stage. Not Power Rangers. They ar...

    6:51  _By Mara_ 💙 When we were happy... "Dory," Ella called quietly. "Hmmm, Elly." "Are you awake?" Doris turned on her side and faced her sister who laid beside her on the bed. "What is it?" Doris asked. "I was thinking about what mummy told us; that Jesus likes it when people come to visit him," said Ella. "What happened, then?" Doris asked her nine year old darling. "I was thinking that Jesus will be alone now. Everyone is sleeping at home. They have forgotten him. Can we keep him company for a while?" Ella asked as she stroke her sister's hair in the darkness. "Okay," said Doris. Then the little girls sat up and said a prayer that touched the heart of heaven. ⏳⌛⏳⌛⏳ 6:58. Doris cursed the moment she had replied Capon's chats. She scolded herself for what she had gotten the both of them into. Ella's words had not been in vain. For years, Doris had pitied herself as ill-fated. Now, she kne...

6:51 A few minutes later... Corinthians 3:21; Fathers, do not provoke your children lest they become discouraged.  45, 44, 43... Doris looked around the room again for a sign of hope. She wrapped her hands around her bare tummy and rocked back and forth on the floor. She was getting cold. She rubbed her arms and looked around again. There had to be a way out.  _35, 34, 33, 32..._ Doris wondered if anyone had seen them and had called for help. Was that why the other kidnappers were away? Hopefully, she nodded her head. She even managed a smile. She was so unlike her sister who seemed to have no other language than weeping.  _23, 22, 21..._ Time was going. The watch was still ticking; Doris could hear it from where she sat. Every steely tick filled her with fear. She trembled and began to lose hope. "Daddy," she muttered in fear. It had been a long time since she had called that word with such feeling. Her relationship with him ended one gloomy school day, two years after h...

⏳ 6:51⌛ A few minutes ago... Ella looked up from her books and stood up. Her father had entered her room. Mr Okafor, a stern man with an even sterner face pulled the sleeve of his suit. He observed, as Ella had hoped, that his youngest daughter was engaged to his satisfaction. However, he did not encourage her or commend her commitment to her studies. "Daddy, good evening," Ella greeted. "Where's your sister?" Mr Okafor replied curtly. "She's in her room." "Doing what?" "I don't know, sir," replied Ella humbly. After a brief silence, Mr Okafor said, "Tell her not to make my dinner. I won't be home tonight. I'll be busy, in the office." "Yes, sir." Ella frowned when he left. Of all the things to do, she hated telling her sister things the most. She hissed as she pictured herself going to Doris' room to deliver their father's message only to be ignored or get snobbed at. After a lot of grumb...

Her weight rested heavily on her right wrist and her joint smarted harshly. She rubbed her wrist which had been bound a moment ago and stared at her assaulter fiercely. He paid no attention as he released the rope from terrified Ella's hands and pushed her as well. Ella landed on her side with a shriek and began to sob, again. Enraged, Doris sprang up and attacked him, screaming, "How dare you! I'll kill you!...

Frozen; 1, 2, Review! Take 2 ❄️

In the previous part of this review, we reflected on the outcome of the blockbuster, Frozen. We reviewed the thrill it gave and the ton of awards it received. We saw the frozen fever and how people still refuse to let it go. Frozen was a huge success. Well, you know what happens when a film gets tagged "a huge success." fans ask for more. John Lasseter, after appeals of fans to have a continuation of the classic, declared, At the Walt Disney Animation Studio, as with Pixar, when we do a sequel, it is because the filmmakers who created the original have created an idea that is so good that it is worthy of these characters. So we're expecting a sequel of Turning Red, yeah? Cos I would kill for more Jesse screentime! (Figure of speech) Oh, happy day when Frozen 2 premiered, like its prequel, in Los Angeles. People were so eager to get a peak of the newest iceberg that ticket box sales reached a stunning 1.453 billion dollars against a production cost of 150 million dollars. ...

Frozen; 1, 2, Review!

You see dark. You hear quiet. Suddenly, a voice picks up an ethereal chant. You see the signature Disney castle come to view. You see yellow pages flip, bringing Mickey Mouse to life. You watch Mickey whistle and steer his helm. Suddenly, dozens of beautiful crystal snowflakes appear. As the song rises to a crescendo, a single flake remains, and when the word "Frozen" appears in cold blue ice, you just know that you're up for a magical Disney treat. Set in the little kingdom of Arendelle, Frozen is the story of two sisters, Elsa and Anna. They... Hang on. Is this necessary? My dear reader might have watched it a billion times. Like me, you might even be able to retell the soundtrack flawlessly. If so, we probably agree on one thing; it never gets old. Frozen begins with a short musical documentary on the life of an iceman in ancient Scandinavia. Here, we get a look at Sven and Kristoff as little pals. The scene leaves the cold and dangerous icefield to a warm castle bedro...
