Lin-Manuel Miranda voices a kinkajou in Netflix's Vivo

Lin-Manuel Miranda must be very busy with all the projects this year. From the successes of Hamilton, Mary Poppins Returns, In The Heights, and the upcoming Encanto and Tick, Tick.. Boom!, his soonest film is with Netflix and Sony Pictures Animation this August.

The Tony, Grammy and Pulitzer-award winner voices a kinkajou aka honey bear in Vivo where he voices the titular role. The musical animated film features the songs of Lin-Manuel. Hear a snippet of a song in the background of the release announcement below.

This Netflix film Vivo follows a one-of-kind kinkajou (aka a rainforest “honey bear,” voiced by Miranda), who spends his days playing music to the crowds in a lively square with his beloved owner AndrĂ©s (Buena Vista Social Club’s Juan de Marcos). Though they may not speak the same language, Vivo and AndrĂ©s are the perfect duo through their common love of music. But when tragedy strikes shortly after AndrĂ©s receives a letter from the famous Marta Sandoval (three-time Grammy-winning Latin pop legend Gloria Estefan), inviting her old partner to her farewell concert with the hope of reconnecting, it’s up to Vivo to deliver a message that AndrĂ©s never could: A love letter to Marta, written long ago, in the form of a song. Yet in order to get to Marta, who lives a world apart, Vivo will need the help of Gabi (newcomer Ynairaly Simo) – an energetic tween who bounces to the beat of her own offbeat drum to fulfill his owner’s wishes.

Also featuring the voices of Zoe Saldaña (Guardians of the Galaxy) as Gabi’s mother, Rosa; Michael Rooker as a villainous Everglades python, Lutador; Brian Tyree Henry and Nicole Byer as a pair of star-crossed spoonbills; and Katie Lowes, Olivia Trujillo, and Lidya Jewett as a trio of well-meaning but overzealous scout troops, VIVO is an exhilarating story about gathering your courage, finding family in unlikely friends, and the belief that music can open you to new worlds.

The film is directed by Oscar nominee Kirk DeMicco (The Croods), co-directed by Brandon Jeffords (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2), written by Quiara Alegria Hudes (In the Heights), produced by Lisa Stewart (Monsters vs. Aliens), Michelle Wong (Hotel Transylvania 2) and Oscar winner Rich Moore (Zootopia), with visual consultation by Oscar winning cinematographer Roger Deakins (Blade Runner 2049). Serving as the film’s composer and executive music producer is Tony and Grammy award-winner Alex Lacamoire (The Greatest Showman), and the film is executive produced by Miranda, Golden Globe winner Laurence Mark (Dreamgirls), and Louis Koo Tin Lok (The Mitchells vs. The Machines).

MOVIE REVIEW - Lady and the Tramp

This review is quite late but at least I remembered that there was a live-action remake of Disney's Lady and the Tramp. I think this was the first movie they promoted when they released Disney+. So I went to watch it and to tell you honestly that the movie isn't quite bad.

Just how cute Lady and Tramp are if you look at them getting to know each other at the start, then sharing great moments together, especially during that iconic candle-lit dinner by the restaurant listening to a romantic song.

The opening really sets its mood but it felt like I'm watching a similar story of the guy who isn't from a rich family while the girl is, they met, they fight, they discover and understood their differences, get attached, get separated, then guy gets into trouble and the girl saves him. If you knew a familiar story, please tell me in the comments. 

Lady and the Tramp features the voices of Emma Thompson, Justin Theroux, Sam Elliott, Ashley Jensen, Benedict Wong, Janet Monae and more. It is still streaming on Disney+.

AMIYA RAYA opens its Club Vihara with generous amenities

Last June 26, 2021, Club Vihara formally opens its doors to the public. The exclusive preview was commemorated by a solemn blessing and ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by landowners and partners Ms. Chay Garcia (Community Creators, Inc.), Mr. and Mrs. Jun and Angie Cristi, Mr. and Mrs. Teddy and Chit Salud (Ardear Development and Realty Corp.), and selected guests. The event was also celebrated with a butterfly release adjacent Amiya Raya’s soon-to-be-developed nature park.

Vihara is a Sanskrit term for “a place of leisure and entertainment” and the club is Amiya Raya’s amenity center offering a modern oasis for its lot and homeowners who want to try something new and get an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Exciting amenities are available for those who want to engage in physical activities like indoor badminton courts, a gym, a boxing ring, a wall climb. Club Vihara also features a members’ lounge and game area with billiards, darts, card tables, and a kids’ playroom. Its most anticipated element, however, is its swimming pool that has a kiddie pool, adult infinity pool, and a pool bar just beside the club’s own CafĂ© Vihara. The club also offers the perfect venue for private functions and gatherings with its spacious and elegant event halls and expansive balconies with views of the city skyline and Manila Bay sunsets.

Lot and homeowners can also look forward to the more exciting additions to Club Vihara this year with its multi-sports court and the Deck, a distinctive architectural element that produces an impressive 700-square meter of generous space with an expansive 270-degree panoramic view touted to be unique only to Amiya Raya and is rarely available in typical high-end residential projects around the areas of San Mateo and Quezon City.

Amiya Raya, an exclusive residential enclave in San Mateo, Rizal offers resort-like living that is only a 15-minute drive from the city, which makes it close to places of interest such as schools, churches, malls, and government offices.
