Please Pause: Filipino TV and Film

The Standee Scale Standardization with 18th Rose, Thrash, Mother Mary, Beef, and Fulfill

Still here and still SPOILER-FREE! This episode was recorded last Sunday. It should have been out by last Monday but you get what you get. It is what it is. Anyway... We had a somewhat busy past two weeks. We were in Davao very briefly so of course, we'll tell you about that. Then onto 18th Rose! Xyriel Manabat stars in this Filipino Netflix original romantic drama. So maganda ba? Pag-usapan natin! We then get into another Netflix chart topper, the shark movie Thrash. Napag-usapan rin ang Beef Season 2 with Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Cailee Spaeny, and Charles Melton. But do people even know that there's a Beef Season 2? Then in his never ending search for that romance high, Mike shares his initial thoughts on the Thai GL series Fulfill. Labas na nga rin pala ang Michael Jackson biopic na Michael. We just didn't watch it. What we watched was another movie about another pop star, Anne Hathaway's Mother Mary! That and more in this episode!

The Juciest, Meatiest, Cavitiest Episode Ever with The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, The Drama, and More

SPOILER-FREE like we always do. We know we've been gone for a while but we're back with a vengeance! Yes, it's finally here. Fresh from a staycation in Cavite, it's the much-anticipated Please Pause Cavite Special! This is where we pay tribute to all things Cavite like no other TV and film podcast can so listen at your own risk! Just remember, fun-fun lang. And yes, we watched The Super Mario Galaxy movie in Cavite. Have we got a story for you. Chris Pratt and all the major players are back but does the sequel measure up to the original? Pag-usapan natin! We also watched Zendaya and Roberto Pattinson in The Drama which is, well, a drama about them as a soon-to-be-wed couple. Not your usual drama though as this was way more stressful than your average romance. Also in this episode, Phantom Lawyer and Daredevil Born Again. Plus some Netflix chart toppers in The Immortal Man, The Red Line, and The Last Beergin. Fun-fun lang!

Siomai and Sisig with Project Hail Mary, Boyfriend on Demand, One Piece, Ready or Not 2, and More

SPOILER-FREE, in case you didn't know! Our last episode was a little light so bawi kami ngayon. We begin with a couple of Netflix romance series that we finally finished watching. Napag-usapan ang virtual reality dating app na nakahumalingan ni BLACKPINK Jisoo sa Boyfriend on Demand. So was it kilig or cringe? That's the question. We then move on to a Japanese series about a romance between a Korean girl and a Japanese guy, Gimbal and Onigiri. We've been touching on these for a few weeks now so now that it's over, we finally get to answer if all of that's worth it. Pagkatapos nun, Ham tells us about Ready or Not 2: Here I Come where the returning badass bride, Samara Weaving, is joined by her sister played by Kathryn Newton. Then it's Mike's turn to tell Ham about Made in Korea, the Netflix Indian movie that was... Made in Korea. Mike also talks about Season 2 of the much anticipated live action adaptation of One Piece. Then onto the main event of the episode, Project Hail Mary! Science, space, and Ryan Gosling plus his adorable friend. It's one thing to be worthy of a trip to the cinema but in this economy? Pag-usapan natin! Also in this episode, a movie called Eden starring A-listers Jude Law, Vanessa Kirby, Sydney Sweeney, Daniel Brühl, and Ana de Armas. And also in this episode, an extremely inaccurate teleserye conversation about Batang Quiapo and What Lies Beneath that definitely needs some fact checking.

Noli Me Spoilere with Sisa, Hoppers, War Machine, and The Bride!

SPOILER-FREE no matter how crazy we sound! In celebration of Women's Month, we start this episode with Direk Jun Robles Lana's latest film, Sisa! Actually, we started with the number one movie on Netflix, War Machine, starring the hulk of a man that is Alan Ritchson but whatever. Sisa though, is it a psychological thriller? Is it a historical drama? Is it a war movie? Pag-usapan natin. After that, Ham tells us about The Bride! from writer-director Maggie Gyllenhaal. Is Frankenstein alive again (as an IP)? Well, this isn't really about him, apparently. Last but not the least, we get into Pixar's latest feature that's not Avatar but very much like Avatar, Hoppers! This movie has certainly a lot of lessons to teach but is it even fun? Listen in and let's talk about it! Also in this episode, some of the stuff we're watching like Paradise and Scrubs. Let us know what you'e watching as well! Follow us on Instagram, Threads, Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, and Letterboxd @pleasepauseph We'd really appreciate it if you tell someone about the podcast!

Music to My Ears with A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Pavane, Crime 101, Honey Don't, and 56 Days

SPOILER-FREE! You already know that! Good luck sa Spotify in auto-generating chapters for this episode. But before anything else, the people behind the podcast would like to apologize on behalf of Ham dahil medyo inaantok-antok pa siya at the start of the recording. We begin with crime—as in Chris Hemsworth as a jewel robber in Crime 101. The movie doesn't exactly teach you how to do crime but we hope you learn something new from this episode. We go on to talk about Margaret Qualley as the sexually charged private detective, Honey, in Honey Don't which is now available on HBO Max. Pagkatapos, sa Prime Video naman kami with the sort of erotic thriller series, 56 Days, starring Dove Cameron. Sa dakong Netflix naman, we also saw the Korean drama film, Pavane. Kung napaiyak kayo nito, raise your hand. Last but not the least, we cannot NOT talk about the best thing on TV right now, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Tara, kinig na!
