Follow the Road to “Emerald City” on IFLIX

EMERALD CITY, THE EPIC HIT DRAMA FROM ACCLAIMED DIRECTOR TARSEM SINGH, NOW AVAILABLE ONLY ON IFLIX

Well growing up with the tales of Dorothy and her adventures on the yellow brick road giving it a twist was definitely interesting, The first episode shows that Dorothy is a medical practitioner like I am, as she enters the world of OZ/Emerald City- she calls herself a healer. Meeting mystical characters along the way and conqueing witches with glamourous wardrobe. Not forgetting, her 3 main – Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion, which we can’t wait on how their characters tackles in the series. Don’t forget her dog side kick, Toto. So far I’m hooked with the first episode, it may be kinda dark compared to the story that we have been used to growing up but sometimes change is good & to mix things a little. There might be something brewing between Dorothy and Lucas (who is Lucas?, he is a familiar character which would make it a shocker and twist for the series) It is for you to watch!

When the trailer was released on IFLIX’S FB Page, I wanted to start watching it but since I have a hunch that It will have a special preview for the bloggers, which it did! Last Feb 8, 2017, so I waited for it and I wasn’t disspointed till the end. At first it was kinda bland and dark for a story you lived your entire childhood but when she got to the world of OZ and Emerald city that’s when it got interesting. The location, graphics and modern/minimalist set up plus points.

Catch the ongoing 6 episodes of EMERALD CITY on IFLIX and new episodes every Saturday (US MATCH AIRING)- Do you know that IFLIX has also a download feature! Accessible for you to watch anywhere and anytime ) #EMERALDCITYONIFLIX

WESTWORLD on HBO

MONDAY OCT 3, 2016 AT 9 AM, WITH SAME DAY PRIMETIME ENCORE AT 9PM EXCLUSIVELY ON HBO

HBO Chanel 54/ 168 on SKYCABLE and Ch 22 on Sky Direct & will be available on HBO (hboasia.com.ph)

WESTWOLRD stars Anthony Hopkins, Ed Harris, Evan Rachel Wood and James Marden. Inspired by the 1973 series “Westworld” written and directed by Michael Crichton. Created for television by Jonathan Nolan (“Interstellar”, “Dark Night”, “Person of Interest”) and Lisa Joy (“Pushing Diaries, “Burn Notice”).

WESTWORLD, under the creative supervision of Dr. Robert Ford who has this odd fascination in creating this complicated world in wild west. The park had been running for 10 years (or more as mentioned in the pilot), this is where guest (real life people) pay get to experience life in the wild west and get to mingle with the host(s). The hosts were created perfectly formed humans and technologically generated. They live doing the same routine everyday but with different circumstances one day they can be alive, the next day you won’t- It’s like a series.

All things started to go down when they started to upgrade the system, well some of the host started to go haywire or experiencing glitches. Apparently they may not be human, but some of them are starting to think and be one. Wondering if what kind of world they live is real or not.

This series will be highly appreciated by tho who are into sci-fi (the deep ones), there may be inappropriate scenes not for kids but I appreciated the cinematography and location in the wild west.

MACGYVER on AXN!

MAKE WAY FOR THE ALL-NEW MACGYVER ONLY ON AXN

PREMIERES SEPTEMBER 29 AT 9:45PM

Philippines (September 10, 2016) – AXN has one ‘Gy’ to save the world this September with

MacGyver, a dynamic re-imagining of the iconic hit television series that was hugely popular in

the eighties.

Set to premiere September 29, first and exclusively on AXN, this modern-day take is an action-

adventure drama that features Angus “Mac” MacGyver who forms a clandestine organization

within the U.S. government. Here MacGyver utilizes his extraordinary talent making inventive

use of ordinary objects in a matter of minutes to decipher seemingly unsolvable problems.

The action-packed series follows the unconventional exploits of our young hardware hero as he

undertakes high-risk missions to save lives around the globe. Highly resourceful and with vast

scientific knowledge, MacGyver narrowly escapes life-and-death situations armed with a little

more than common items, like a paper clip, duct tape, and his trusty Swiss Army knife. Joining

him is the maverick former CIA agent Jack Dalton.

Lucas Till (Havok in the X-Men movie series) stars as MacGyver while CSI veteran George

Eads plays Jack Dalton. Peter Lenkov (Hawaii Five-0, CSI:NY), Golden Globe Award winner

Henry Winkler (Happy Days), Lee Zlotoff (MacGyver), James Wan (Saw, The Conjuring) serve

as executive producers for the series.

Expect lots of thrills in the premiere episode directed by James Wan of The Conjuring and

Insidious fame as MacGyver puts his troubleshooting skills to the test and cleverly implements

unorthodox methods to hurdle over complex problems and eventually become triumphant in the

end.

MacGyver premieres same week as the U.S. on September 29, every Thursday at 9:45 pm.

First & Exclusive on AXN

AXN is seen on Cable Link Channel 38, Cignal Digital TV Channel 61, Global Destiny

Cable Channel 61, Dream Channel 20, GSat Channel 51, and SKYCable Channel 49.
