Dragons have all moved in with Gerard Butler in “How to train your Dragon 2"


From DreamWorks Animation, “How To Train Your Dragon 2” is even more exciting than the first Oscar-nominated film. The 3D adventure is stunning, with beautiful animation, great characters and a powerful storyline about a boy named Hiccup (Jay Baruchel) and his dragon, Toothless.
Gerard Butler returns as Hiccup’s dad, Stoick The Vast, mighty Chieftain of the Island of Berk.  Hiccup, now a young man, is contentedly flying with Toothless and exploring the frontiers of the Viking world, much to the annoyance of his father.  Stoick feels it’s high time his son stepped up to his leadership responsibilities and his heritage.   As the plot unfolds, Hiccup has to defend the villagers from the power-crazed Drago (Djimon Hounsou) and his army of dragon trappers.   And in a dramatic twist to this exhilarating coming of agestory, there is an emotional family reunion with Valka, Hiccup’s courageous mother (Cate Blanchett),an inspiring dragon protector.

PHILIPPINE DENTAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH LEADERS COMMIT TO STOPPING CARIES NOW FOR A CAVITY-FREE FUTURE


Joining together at the 105th Annual Philippine Dental Association (PDA) Convention,  government officials  dentists, public health  practitioners, academicians, physicians and other stakeholders launched a national campaign, the Alliance for a Cavity-Free Future (ACFF), to stop cavities (a.k.a., dental caries), NOW!  The Philippine Chapter of the ACFF calls for national collaborative action to challenge leaders and stakeholders in the community to: 
a) learn the importance of caries as a disease continuum;
b) recognize that cavities are preventable and, in the early stages, reversible; and 
c) develop comprehensive programs for caries prevention and management in the Philippines.  

Tooth decay is the most common chronic disease on the planet, affecting five billion people, or nearly 80 percent of the world’s population. According to the 2006 National Oral Health Survey conducted by the Department of Health, 92.4 percent of Filipinos have tooth decay, which, while not life-threatening, can be a cause of potentially dangerous diseases and infections.

Ansel Elgort: Stars shining bright


One of this generation’s most remarkable heartthrob, multi-talented young actor Ansel Elgort takes his most challenging role yet in the most-awaited love story of the year in “The Fault In Our Stars.”

“The Fault In Our Stars” celebrates the power of young love in all its magic, power and complexity where Elgort takes on the role of Augustus ‘Gus’ Waters, a teenager who is in remission from his osteosarcoma who met Hazel (Shailene Woodley) at a cancer support group in their community.  Based on the bestselling novel by John Green, the movie is the story of two remarkable teenagers who fall in love and embrace life despite the strong odds against them. Both are smart, funny and sarcastic. When they meet at a support group, Hazel Grace Lancaster is instantly smitten with Augustus Waters. The feeling is mutual. Despite dealing with serious health concerns on a daily basis, health doesn’t dominate life for Augustus and Hazel. Far from it. They are normal teenagers, excited about first love and getting to know each other. It’s clear from the start that there is strong chemistry between this attractive pair. They don’t see eye to eye on everything, but their connection is powerful and they both have a great sense of humor about their circumstances.

Live the Gold Life! Join and get to win the Axe Gold Pass


It’s been a few weeks since AXE, the number one male fragrance brand in the world, made both men and women decide on which man they want to be or which man they want – the sweet and romantic chocolate man, or sophisticated and charming Gold Man? 


A survey conducted by the AXE global team had mixed results. While 78% of women prefer to go public with a Chocolate man on social media, around the same number would rather end up marrying the Gold man. The debate raged on, from which Filipino celebrity best represented a Gold Man (Luis Manzano being the most popular result) to which Marvel superhero best embodied the two personas. Captain America? Definitely a Chocolate man. Ironman? Solid Gold.

Ed Sheeran's song in “THE FAULT IN OUR STARS”

 
John Green’s global bestseller struck a chord not only with young adults, but with readers of all ages, when it came out in 2012. The film, starring Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort is equally compelling, bringing Green’s indelible characters to life on screen. It tells the story of Hazel Grace Lancaster (Woodley) and Gus Waters (Elgort), who are immediately drawn to each other when they meet at a cancer support group. Friendship and a shared sense of humor turn into something much deeper for the pair and we are swept along on their extraordinary journey as they embark on a quest that takes them thousands of miles away from home, to Amsterdam.

Ostensibly centered on two teenagers with cancer, at its heart “The Fault In Our Stars” is moving, funny and upbeat, about the joys and heartache of first love. In short, the film is an insightful celebration of life. There is powerful chemistry between the two stars of the film. Directed by Josh Boone (“Stuck In Love”), the consummate supporting cast includes Laura Dern, Sam Trammell, Nat Wolff and Willem Dafoe.

Quicksilver: Catch him if you can in "X-Men: Days of Future Past" (3D)

“X-Men: Days of Future Past”  features more mutants than have ever been on screen together before for a massive adventure launching us from an apocalyptic future back into the world of the First Class team. In Days of Future Past, a years-long world conflict between humans and mutants has taken its toll on their numbers, and now a scant few remain, including Professor Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart), Erik “Magneto” Lehnsherr (Ian McKellen), Kitty Pryde (Ellen Page), and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman). Driven to near extinction by the technological terrors unleashed by Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage), the team forms a desperate plan: time travel.

Using Kitty Pryde’s powers, Wolverine’s consciousness will be sent back into his younger self in the 1970s, where he’ll have to track down and help the First Class versions of the characters in order to stop Trask. But that will be even harder than it sounds, as in this era, the X-Men team is just as disparate, with Professor Xavier (James McAvoy) and the rest either at odds or in a low ebb. Can the younger versions of the mutants save their future?
