Staying positive during a zombie apocalypse

At the brink of a zombie apocalypse, get yourself covered and prepared. It happens once in a lifetime, so why not make the most of it? LOL
Netflix’s Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead, which is currently at No. 1 on the Top 10 Movies on Netflix in the Philippines, is the dose of positivity that you need when things are not so great. The main character, Akira Tendo (Eiji Akaso), works at an exploitative company where he suffers endless hours and harassment from his boss. He spends his days feeling more dead than alive. One day, the town is overtaken by zombies and Akira gets excited for he doesn't need to go to the office anymore rather than facing the fact he has to survive the zombie apocalypse. Akira comes up with a bucket list of 100 things he decided to accomplish before he becomes a zombie and makes his bucket list checked traveling with Shizuka (Mai Shiraishi) and Kencho (Shuntaro Yanagi).

Like Akira, you don’t need a big weapon to take on a big challenge. Being optimistic is even more powerful! Here are ways to stay positive so you can live your best life under the worst circumstances.
Look at the bright side
Akira, who’s more worried about being late for work rather than zombies trying to eat him, eventually realizes the advantage of being in a zombie apocalypse: He doesn’t need to go to work! Having a rosy outlook helps him survive, giving him the focus to think of important things like his bucket list.

Listen to your favorite music
Music can be a powerful source of inspiration to keep you going. It’s part of Akira’s personal arsenal when he’s out on the streets of Tokyo looking for supplies. Listening to his favorite jam while outrunning a zombie horde is next-level superhero stuff.
Eat delicious food
Trying to survive a zombie apocalypse without having any survival skills sounds like a lost cause. But props to Akira for staying alive and rewarding himself with good food while he’s at it.

Think of your crush
Like Akira, thinking of your crush can give you the motivation to finish the task at hand. That kilig feeling will instantly put a smile on your face and boost your energy.
Find a friend
Two heads are better than one. No man is an island. Teamwork makes the dream work. All are true, especially when it comes to survival. Akira, Kencho, and Shizuka may have their differences but when working together to survive, they’re golden.
Make time for self-care
Life’s problems can get overwhelming that’s why it’s important to relax and recharge your mind and body. Be like Akira and his friends. In the midst of a zombie apocalypse, they found time to do SUP yoga and swim in a hot spring. Mindfulness achieved!
Look awesome while you’re at it
Akira may look like the living dead trying to beat deadlines but he sure knows how to take on a zombie shark in style. Facing difficulties is a fact of life. So why not look good while trying your best?
Make a list of goals
Having goals gives you purpose and achievement. In Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead, Akira created a bucket list to help him live his best life before he becomes a zombie’s meal. Starting a gratitude list is a good way to stay positive, too.

Do good, be good
Being kind comes naturally to Akira. He loves helping people and has a can-do attitude that keeps him determined. Being good is not always easy but it’s a surefire way to channel positive vibes.

For more life lessons, silly saves, and zombie gore watch Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead now streaming, only on Netflix.

ALCHEMY OF SOULS returns today on Netflix!

Alchemy of Souls has delighted us with an intricately woven plot with a deeply rich storyline and engaging characters. With the epic story set to wrap up, the fate of the fantastical world of Daeho and all its characters remains the biggest question. What will happen to this majestic realm we’ve thoroughly fallen in love with? Only time will tell when the story continues today, December 10!

If you haven’t watched the show yet or you need a refresher on what has happened thus far, now is the perfect time to stream! Here are 5 reasons to watch Alchemy of Souls:

Jang Uk’s Evolution
Despite being born into a prominent mage family, Jang Uk (Lee Jae-wook) was initially unable to learn magical skills due to his birth secret. However, everything changes when he meets his new master. Jang Uk then fights against the destiny he was born into and gains new powers. Returning 3 years after coming back to life, Jang Uk is a completely changed person. We’re definitely intrigued to see a new side of Jang Uk soon.

The Return of Naksu
Naksu (Go Youn-jung) was a powerful sorceress and assassin before ending up in the body of a blind woman named Mu-deok. From having murderous intentions to experiencing love, Naksu changes drastically. However, she becomes unable to control her situation and everything shifts. Now a mysterious woman with Naksu’s appearance has emerged. There’s much to be unraveled with this new development.

The Friendships
Alchemy of Souls is such a satisfying blend of everything from magic, action, comedy, and friendship. All of the different friendships truly shine! The bromance relationships between Jang Uk, Seo Yul (Hwang Min-hyun), Park Dang-gu (Yoo In-soo), and crown prince Go Won (Shin Seung-ho) is so endearing. And we can’t forget Mu-deok’s friendships with the boys as well. Will their friendships stay the same or change?

The Romance
Of course, you can’t leave out the romance. In addition to Jang Uk and Naksu’s compelling love, we have many relationships to root for. Have Park Dang-gu and Jin Cho-yeon (Arin)’s lovely plans changed? How about Park Jin (Yu Jun-sang) and Maid Kim (Oh Na-ra)? Will some of the single men find new love interests? We’re intensely invested in seeing some happy couples.

The Fate of Everything
Alchemy of Souls has delighted us with an intricately woven plot with a deeply rich storyline and engaging characters. With the epic story set to wrap up, the fate of the fantastical world of Daeho and all its characters remains the biggest question. What will happen to this majestic realm we’ve thoroughly fallen in love with? Only time will tell when the story continues on December 10!

Be ready and don’t miss out on the return of Alchemy of Souls, only on Netflix!

Henry sends his warm wishes to Liam in this short and heartfelt message online.
My journey as Geralt of Rivia has been filled with both monsters and adventures, and alas, I will be laying down my medallion and my swords for Season 4. In my stead, the fantastic Mr Liam Hemsworth will be taking up the mantle of the White Wolf. As with the greatest of literary characters, I pass the torch with reverence for the time spent embodying Geralt and enthusiasm to see Liam's take on this most fascinating and nuanced of men.
Liam, good sir, this character has such a wonderful depth to him, enjoy diving in and seeing what you can find.  #TheWitcher Liam Hemsworth

Liam Hemsworth later on gives a statement in accepting the role.
As a Witcher fan, I'm over the moon about the opportunity to play Geralt of Rivia. Henry Cavill has been an incredible Geralt, and I'm honoured that he's handing me the reins and allowing me to take up the White Wolf's blades for the next chapter of the adventure.

Henry, I've been a fan of yours for years and was inspired by what you brought to this beloved character. I may have some big boots to fill, but I'm truly excited to be stepping into The Witcherworld. @henrycavill @witchernetflix.

Meet the stellar cast of Gyeongseong Creature

Netflix is set to bring Gyeongseong Creature to viewers around the globe. The thriller series follows individuals going up against monstrous creatures that were born out of human greed. Set in the spring of 1945, in the city of Gyeongseong (Seoul's former name), the series is highly anticipated due to the sheer amount of talent tied to it.

Park Seo Jun and Han So-hee

International heartthrob Park Seo-jun, who received acclaim for his roles in the dramas Itaewon Class and What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim, plays Jang Tae-sang – the head of merchant marketplace Golden Jade House who is the wealthiest, most well-connected person in Gyeongseong. Tae-sang is someone who puts money before justice, but all that changes when he crosses paths with Yun Chae-ok while investigating a series of missing person cases.

Han So-hee, who rose to stardom from the Netflix Series My Name, The World of the Married and Nevertheless, plays Yun Chae-ok – a famous bounty hunter who can track down missing people, even ones who are dead. Chae-ok possesses a sharp eye and agile survival skills learned from her rough childhood roaming across Manchuria and Shanghai with her father.

Claudia Kim and Wi Ha Jun

The solid cast also includes Claudia Kim and Wi Ha-jun who have both received international spotlight for their roles. Claudia Kim plays Maeda, who is the wife of a powerful official in Gyeongseong during the colonial period. The actress has been active on the global stage through the films Avengers: Age of Ultron and Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, and the Netflix Series Marco Polo.

Wi Ha-jun, who made a lasting impression on worldwide audiences with his role in Squid Game and is currently winning over viewers in Little Women, plays Gwon Jun-taek, Tae-sang's best friend. He joins Tae-sang's dangerous plan in rescuing the people who have gone missing.

Behind the scenes of this stellar cast lineup is a talented production team consisting of heavyweight hitmakers. The team is led by screenwriter Kang Eun K, who penned dramas across various genres such as Dr. Romantic and Kang Chi, the Beginning, and director Chung Dong-yoon, who flexed his powerful muscle as a creator in Hot Stove League.

Gyeongseong Creature, a compelling story about wretched creatures and those who go up against them, will be released globally only on Netflix.

THE GRAY MAN movie review

Netflix's The Gray Man features two of our favorite actors, Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, throwing punches, kicks and bullets in this high-octane action flick.
Ryan Gosling_The Gray Man
Ryan Gosling plays Six, an ex-convict chosen by the CIA that eventually triggered a worldwide manhunt against him before exposing a top secret information. And to protect a young girl from the group of assassins lead by Lloyd (Chris Evans) who are also in quest for him.

The Gray Man is a film with a simple plot but you'll be served with action-packed sequences. Ryan Gosling could have made his audition as 007 (but he had an inside joke that this was already taken so he chose "Six") because of his intense stunts. From parks to train, even underwater, Gosling has proven his versatility as an actor. Evans was also an effective villain, creating a new page to his portfolio. Also Ana De Armas really goes by her name with her strong kicks and punches in this movie.

Chris Evans_The Gray Man

The Russo Brothers really did well with The Gray Man that is good for both streaming and theater platforms. We're missing a lot of action movies nowadays so The Gray Man is a great movie to watch on. Grab your popcorns as it streams on Netflix July 22.
