Saw @heretherebedork's posts and I must say, I wasn't aware that Adrian Lindayag is back to acting after his announcement that he was HIV positive.

I knew him because my mum used to watch a Filipino telenovela with him playing a side character. I'm just happy that my home country seems to be progressing (albeit, slowly) when it comes to queer media and supporting actors that unfortunately bears the stigma of that dreaded disease. 😊

Marahuyo Project - Official Trailer.

I have to admit, I watched it because I saw in the thumbnail, Tommy Alejandrino who played on of the main lead in The Day I Loved You. I really loved this BL, last year and I thought why not watching this trailer. He is not playing a main character here, but really it doesn't matter.

I watched the trailer and it seems really interesting, so you should also watch it. I know Filipino BL are not as popular as other BL, but they have their own way of showing QL stories and it can be refreshing.

The synopsis: Join King (Adrian Lindayag) as he journeys through the highly traditional town of Marahuyo, meeting new friends and finding love along the way as he lobbies to create the first LGBTQIA+ org in their campus.

Everything will be published on ANIMA Studios Youtube Channel. They have English subtitles on the trailer so we may have them also for the series. The series will start on the 24th of June.

Gagaoolala has Golden Delicious which is a Canadian film about a Chinese Canadian teen who joins the basketball team, but when his new neighbor also joins the team, his world is turned upside down!

It did the festival rounds last year and won a few awards, but the real prize is the film is a basically a love letter from out director Jason Karman to himself.

So for those of you who are only using your Gaga subscription for QL purposes, just know it has other crowd pleasers, AND it's getting the Filipino drama The Boy Foretold by the Stars and Love Beneath the Stars, which tell the story of two boys falling in love at a Catholic school, and features Adrian Lindayag who also played the lead in Marahuyo Project.

You're already paying the fee, so might as well venture out.

Marahuyo Project Eps 1 & 2 Stray Thoughts

I am so excited about this show! Anima Studios was behind Gaya sa Pelikula (Like in the Movies), and JP Habac is back directing. They even got Adrian Lindayag from The Boy Foretold by the Stars and Love Beneath the Stars, and they got Tommy Alejandrino from The Day I Loved You. I am so ready.

Episode 1 – Amihan

I do like opening with a quick queer history lesson reminding that much of our modern homophobic experience is a byproduct of imperialism.

Look at them!! I missed you, boys!

Hold on, I’m already ascending over these two giving each other the signal to kiss in front of the dean.

Homophobe down!

I wonder if we’ll see the macho dad later. I’m looking forward to the mom drama.

Not the fish going flying during a Crash Into You moment.

Points to grandma for knowing more terms, but you can’t just ask this boy that kinda stuff!

I think the actress playing the mom is Sue Prado, who also played Cairo’s mom in Gameboys.

Okay, I love his internal monologue and that he chides himself with feminine pronouns. Good shout out on that @lurkingshan

OOF. It’s missing my grandmothers hours.

Oh hey we’re gonna keep going with the spectrum. Very relieved to be outside of the bubble again.

Oh, I like the name Venice.

That reaction to the extended LGBTQIA+ was really elegant. Sometimes it’s easy to get caught up in some of the internal politics, but folks away from major population centers are so isolated that the specific terminology is just not their priority, and they don’t get the updates.

Lovi Poe mentioned!! Everyone go watch Sleep With Me on GagaOOlala!!

I want you all to know that @yankeebastard and I call each other “sis” all the time. I’m having a great time.

Oh no they’re gonna throw my boy into the pool.

There it is.

You win this round, President Fish Boy.

Episode 2 – Dios Buhawi

Oh, that was too aggressive, King, but I feel you.

Yes! Call your friends! I was worried they’d be out of the picture after the expulsion.

Damn, it really be your own people dragging you. Juvy called out King’s crush so fast.

It’s really refreshing to watch a show wearing its politics on its sleeves.

I’m really intrigued by the way this show breaks the fourth wall. I’m going to have to think about what role we fill in King’s existence.

Okay, the gibberish bit was funny.

Lorena Gomez, are you family?

About to cry about this dress scene.

Lorena and Lili, are you two best friends in love with each other in an unexpressed way??

Yes, drag his ass. Shut the fuck up, Marco.

Venice suffering in the heat should not be this funny.

I am curious what “friendly recruiter” King looks like.

Yes, what is the tea on Archie?

I do love King. Reminds me of a boy who protected me when I was a refugee. I watched him fight four boys on a stairwell and win.

Crash Into You again??? And in front of everyone!

Now, Marco, what the fuck was that look?

Ino, you ain’t fooling me trying to suss out how much King likes you, or if he has a boyfriend back in Manila.

Ino, you ain’t gotta stand that close to King.

Interesting. I think Archie was warning Venice to hide after the dean showed up.

Thankfully the front of his mullet blends in with the background.

BESTIES, WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK! This is so good right out of the gate. I love that King is such a warrior. He’s not passive at all, and everyone clocks him so quickly. I’m so ready to see what Ino is going to do since he can’t help but flirt with King. I have big hopes for Lorena and Lili. It feels so good to be back in a well-produced show from the Philippines with a huge heart and a lot to say. I feel restored.

The Boy Foretold By The Stars

The Boy Foretold By The Stars, is the First Filipino BL movie official entry to the Metro Manila Film Festival 2020, which will stream online starting December 25 on Upstream.  

Starring Adrian Lindayag and Keann Johnson. Written and directed by Dolly Dulu.

The Boy Foretold By The Stars is a romantic comedy movie about two senior highschool boys, who thru the help of a fortune teller, find each other at an optional school retreat called “Journey with the Lord.“

Trailer source here.

This movie, man... This movie... I laughed, I squealed, I cried, I wished to find my own soulmate.

“The Boy Foretold by the Stars” is the story of Dominic, a gay teen in a Catholic all boys’ high school. After being forced by his best friend to visit a fortune teller, he’s told that he would meet his soulmate in a week. Sure enough, in a week, during a school retreat, he meets Luke, who had just broken up with his girlfriend. The two become friends and Dominic finds himself falling in love and searching for signs that Luke may be his soulmate.

Honestly, I’ve been excited for this film ever since I saw the trailer last month. I’m so glad my family decided to subscribe to a Filipino streaming service (so mom can watch her dramas) and they added this on there for an extra fee. 

It’s such a beautiful film! Dominic is played by Adrian Lindayag, whom I’ve always loved in all of his roles. He’s also openly gay and effeminate, which is a nice change. It seems like feminine gay men aren’t always as widely represented nor are they ever the protagonist or even get a love story. 

A "Making of...” video revealed that this was actually filmed before the pandemic hit and lockdowns happened. So, technically, this was the first Filipino BL. The writer, himself, is an effeminate gay man, who poured his heart and soul into the script and admitted that he was a bit dejected that, although they were the first to complete a BL project, they were one of the last to be released.

But, honestly, the fact that they waited to release it, once everything is done and set, really showed in how beautiful the editing was! The way the scenes were set, the music (the soundtrack is amazing!), and the characters all came together to tell a beautiful, sensitive, and hopeful love story. 

The actors, Adrian and Keann Johnson, were phenomenal in their roles! Their chemistry overflowed in the romantic scenes and the pain was real in the angst-y moments.

My only complaint is that the ending felt too abrupt and sudden. But, I can look past it as it does give you a sense of hope. 

It made me believe in love again. It tells you that everyone deserves to find love. 

You have a pre-destined love out there somewhere, just waiting for you to find them, but it’s up to you and your choices to fight to keep that love. 

A trigger warning, though, if you want to try and watch this movie, there are portrayals of homophobia and homophobic slurs are said, which really made those scenes painful to watch. 

But, suffice to say, “The Boy Foretold by the Stars” is officially on my top 5 BL’s!

BL fashion is Marahuyo Project (Trailer)

Meet my new fashion icon. Can we talk about this printed top that is just fabulous. When everyone is dressing in cool and sad colors, you can always appreciate someone who bring such vibrant colors.

It looks like something you can wear when you're living close to the sun and you're in the middle of summer. I feel like I'm on holidays.

Let's not forget about this sleeveless shirt with cute prints. I like it a lot.

What about this?! It's so cool and you can see they put so much effort to be at the birthday party. I love it! It so colorful and fun. So much fitted for a King.
