I still remember all the naughty and fun stuff I did like it was yesterday. Another thing, it is 3 years since the King of Music has passed away. How could I ever forget…..his passing changed the way I’m looking at my own birthday…it became….more…”special..??”
Perhaps, but it did became more than just celebrating my birthday. Today I also celebrate the musical legacy this icon has left behind. I salute you…Michael Jackson!

Countdown until my Bday with Michael Jackson: days left 2
Today, the 23th of June 2012, I am with my girl at my mom’s place. I have to celebrate my birthday today, really did not want to but my mom kind of made me. So that is why I’m here today to celebrate. Invited some people over so I will see who will come or not.
I created an event on my facebook “YorelCairo” just click on my name, and invited some people, I realized I invited like 65 people…..heck that is a lot! Even when I was thinking about the people who I invited but may not make it, there were still about 40 people left. So I wonder how many people will be here today…my guess is around 25 to 30 people.
Let me thank my mother C.B. Cairo, my girlfriend J.M.H. Wirjosemito and my sister S.Magai for making this possible because without those three I’d definitely would not be celebrating, and I heard they got me a pretty cool cake…gonna be my first birthday cake since…..heck can’t even remember when the last time was I had a birthday cake on my birthday, lol.
Because it is 2 days away from June 25th and I post a blog with an MJ song each day until it is June 25th, I have another video I want to share with you guys.
This time it is the video of the song – Thriller! Do I need to say anything more about this video….NO!!!! Just read my blog and watch the video hehehe

Countdown until my Bday with Michael Jackson: days left 3
3 days left untill my birthday. they say 30 is the new 20…yeah right, they just say that to make you feel better.
What does make me feel better this morning is that I was listening to one of my all time favourite Michael Jackson songs: Keep it in the closet.
I like the the mood of the song, sensual and the song is just very nice! Like the video as well, the mood of the video is befitting to the song!
A nice song to start your day with!
Michael Jackson – Keep it in the closet

Countdown until my Bday with Michael Jackson: days left 4
Yes, it is almost the 25th of June again, the day I’ve been born and this year will be my 30th year on this planet.
My Bday vibe changed when on the same day in 2009 M.J. passed away, so I won’t be celebrating my own life but also the music M.J. has left us behind.
Every day I will post a video of a Michael Jackson song that is passing by on my Ipod.
So today I will leave you guys with a song I’m listening on my Ipod right now:
Leave me Alone.
I like this song because of the message, the paparazi has always been on Michael’s back, they all wanted to have his picture and wanted to know the latest story. I can only imagine how it would be like to be as known as Michael Jackson and really not able to go anywhere without paparazi harrasing you. Not even Brad Pitt had that amount of paparazi coming after him. I also like the video for its visuals. They were and still are stunning!

A Thousand Words
Yesterday I watched the new Eddie Murphy movie, “A Thousand Words.” In this comedy Eddie plays Jack McCall, a represantative of a mayor publishing house who has to sign the hottest person out there, who happens to be a spiritual guru. Jack is known for his talkative mouth and when he talks too much, just to get the guru to sign with his publisher, he finds a bodhi tree in his own backyard. Now Jack only gets a thousand words and needs to find himself again before all the leaves fall down and the tree dies.
This is the first movie where Eddie Murphy is playing the lead since …….Imagine That. His movie before this one was the Ben Stiller movie, Tower Heist.
What I like about this movie is that Eddie shows a lot of comedic genuisness when it comes to acting with only using body language. It is said that acting comes more to its right when there is little dialogue. Well, having dialogue and having to use only body language worked perfectly in this film. I haven’t laughed so hard since I saw Meet Dave.
Eddie Murphy really hasn’t lost his touch and I hope he will come back to do a one-man show! You should all go and watch this movie.
A Thousand Words
Genre: Comedy
Starring:
Eddie Murhpy
Kerry Washington
Cliff Curtis
Directed by:
Brian Robbins
Written by:
Steven Koren

Jackie’s son is kicking ass!
So Jackie Chan has decided, for the first time ever to attend the press release for his son’s, Jaycee Chan, new movie called “Double Trouble” in which he stars with Jessica Cambensy, , Xia Yu and Deng Jiajia.
Jaycee Chan plays an security guard who get suspected of being involved with a art theft of a legendary Chinese painting. Together with a bodygaurd from Beijing he needs to track the thieves and retrieve the painting.
Now the trailer looked nice and you can see that Jackie Chan and his stunt team helped with the stunts and choreo’s. I like to see this movie so I will be on the look out.

Prometheus overrated?
Ridley Scott, the man who gave us Alien, The Gladiator….American Gangster…..he is back in 2012 and going back to his “roots” with his new Science fiction movie: “Prometheus.”
This was / is one of the most anticipated movies of this year, together with The Avengers, The Amazing Spiderman and The Dark Knight Rises. Where The Avengers was amazing and lived up to the hype…..Prometheus came in with the same hype. Did it live up to it?
I just came from the theatre watching this movie with my girl. I must say, visually this is one great looking movie! All the vfx are just crazy! I read about the interior of the ship who caries the title name “Prometheus” is simply amazing! The world he created was great!
Oh maybe some spoilers…then don’t read any further….
Ridley managed to get a great cast. Charlize Theron, she is great, loved her in this movie. Michael Fassenbender who plays an android, amazing! Noomie Rapace…she was surprising, she’s got some abs! Idris Alba is freaking tall! Seen him in some movies, Thor for example, but for the first time I really noticed that dude is tall! Cool dude.
The story is about some scientists who find ancient scriptures all over the world from ancient civilizations who all pin piont to the same galaxy. How did they know about this while never even met each other? And the even bigger question, where do we come from?
The movie, and I don’t want to spoil too much, is about to answer those two questions, we see the galaxy and planet depicted on all the ancient scriptures and also the Earth like aliens who created us, mankind. You’d think that this would make up for a cool story, a movie with a nice pace…….no, sorry, Ridley Scott did not deliver on that point. I was expecting something with the same greatness as Alien when I first saw that movie. The movie was more like, alright, oke, oke……and sometimes it was a bit boring. There wasn’t happening enough to really keep your attention.
So was it a bad movie……? No, but it wasn’t the kind of movie I expected to see. If I would rate this movie I’d give it 3 stars because: 1.it is Ridley Scott’s return to the genre that made his name. 2.the visual look was really great and 3.the acting was very good. Too bad the story was not portrait with some more…… Alien- American Gladiator-ness, if you know what I’m talking about.

Snow White and the Huntsman
Yup, went to see this movie. At first I was like, yeah this could be something, because they are making a “darker” version of the snow white movie with Julia Roberts in it. Although Kirsten Steward was playing Snow, which I thought was already not the right choice, she is not the beauty that embodies Snow White, and she is just one of the most irritating actresses out there, it was worth to give the movie a try just because of the special effects and of course Chris “Thor” Hemsworth and Charlize Theron.
Note. My girlfriend loved the movie………….figures…LOL.
I’m not going to talk about the acting performance of Kristen Steward….it sucked! Chris did a good job and Charlize as well, she plays a psyco witch like we’ve never seen before, although sometimes she gets pretty annoying, but not as annoying as Kristen Steward! Every time she got some sunlight I yelled “Burn you wack vampire freak lover!!!” Helaas, that could not happen.
I did like how they put out their version of the mirror on the wall. I liked it! The movie was indeed more grimey and grittier, but the pace of the story was just too slow. Kristen Steward showed no reason why she was cast as the titular charactor, she lacked the beauty and she did not convice that she was the most legendary princess from all the fairy tales. Perhaps when she will be playing the main villain in a movie I’d be more convinced about her skills.

Django Unchained
For everybody who’s wondering when crazy director but a mastermind “Quentin Tarantino” will come with a new film? He is working on a new movie which certainly will become another epic movie called: “Django Unchained.”
His last movie “The Inglorious Bastards” was freaking awesome, but “Kill Bill 2″ was not so cool as the first one. Still Quentin is one crazy ass director!!
This movie stars some big names such as: Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx, Samuel.L.Jackson, Christoph Waltz, Kerry Washington. With names like this and Quentin directing you know it will be a kick ass movie! The movie is planned to be released in January 24th 2013 here in The Netherlands.
Jamie Foxx plays a slave who turns into a bounty hunter and with his mentor he sets out to his wife from a brutal Mississippi plantation owner.
Would like to see the trailer, hope it will be released soon!
