As a producer of this film, and writer of this blog susiessoups, to get the words out to help change the world a better place pleases help us spread the words about this movie as well as help us finished the film as well we need your help!. if you like you can also donated the money to us on the kick starter page and help us finished the film. Thank you! >

Let’s make a difference in this world !

Most parts of the world we live in as of today, we don’t have to worried about how to keep our home well lit up, where we can have a full on hot cooked meal or where the children or individual adults students can studies at night with ambient of lights at their comfort of their own home without ever having to leave their home.

Why must I bring this topic up of how lucky we are in the world to have all the gadgets right in our hands including as simple as just switching the light on no matter where we are in our own comfortable home.

Do you know many people in the 3rd world countries as some example in the countries of around India, Southern America or even the Philippines that well over half of the populations do not have the ambient of lights at night in their own home where kids have to go to public places such as the airports, restaurants to studies and work on their assessments, instead each and of the families use kerosene nights?

The number will shock all you, as it well shocked me as well, the truth is it’s around 1.6 billion people without ambient lights each night in the 3rd world country where the children and adults individual adults have to go out to the well lighted public places to studies and work on their home work assignments. Not only that 1 Kerosene can of flume is equal to smoking 40 or more cigarettes at one time, that can’t be good for anybody’s lung.

The why I brought this up is because I am a producer and working on this movie called The Solar Champion, this film is A comedy film about a family of DREAMERS and inventors, as they search for the next Manny Pacquiao and the solar bulb invention, featuring SOLAR CHAMPIONS of the real world! A WORK IN PROGRESS.

And take an a hilarious ride with the CHAMPION FAMILY from the HAPPYness VILLAGE in Manila. They try to get the word out on Daddy Champion’s (father) inventions. Most are ridiculous but one is a SOLAR BULB that will change their fate. The film will also feature SOLAR CHAMPIONS of the real world!

Their father, “Tatay Champion” is a 70 year old dreamer and a hopeless romantic who dreams of things that are impossible. One project that they have is to find the “next” Manny Pacquiao, a prized fighter who just earned $25 million dollars from his last fight. The search begins as they navigate their way in life.

In the end they all find inspiration from their father and the least likely place they expected it, and that they didn’t know it existed–from the prizefighter within themselves and the solar bottle bulb! “Your life will never be the same, when you find within you, the heart of a champion.””

{April 13, 2012} Super New Dance Crew dances to Super Stars Challenge, Hottest show on MTV Return of ( ABDC)American Best Dance Crew Season 7

MTV has somehow revamp all the shows into a reality show base these days, it’s not about the music anymore.

One of the best show on MTV still have many fans wanted to see is (American Best Dance Crew) known as its called name as ABDC is going on their 7ths seasons, on April 11ths on MTV this season, the theme of this season is continuously of the 6ths seasons the theme of Super Stars, not only that the seasons 7ths of the show will have even bigger super star that each dance crew have to dance off to and each week they may or may not have a guest judge on the show.

Host of show for ABDC is Mario Lopez and on the show there is the three judges including D-Trix, Lil Mama, JC Chasez to critique them.

ABDC Season 7th of this season dance crew including return crew from second seasons that were places at 3rd place is the Fannypack, next crew is all 8 young girls whom all meet through Skype to form a team 4 of the members are from Hawaii and the other 4 are from Los Angels they form a crew called 8Flavahz , there is all young living a double career young adult woman crew called Irratik from Canada , and other crews on this seasons including MixdElements ,MosWantedCrew, Elektroytes, RngDancers1, Stepboys, CollizionCrew , FunkdationCrew, those are the ABDC 7ths seasons crews.

ABDC Kicks off 2nd season of Superstar on April 11ths on MTV, there are 10 total crew the first 5 crews performing to Pop Star Britney Spears Challenge, each crew was given the theme song to a Britney Spears to dance to which ever 4 crews dance the best of out all of them will advance to another next week show. With the 5 other crews remaining will perform to Flo Rida theme song.

First up was 8Flavahz crew dances to the Britney Spears theme song “3” they are very impressive; the judge loves their dances and high energy and not miss a step. A quote from D-Trix “ yall just set the bar for season 7 show from the gigo, OMG how have u yall be dancing at 6 months old, how yall doing that stuff.”

The second crew to dance to Britney Spears is MixdElements to the them song“ Till the word ends” , they are also incredible and quote from Lil Mama “ I really liked and enjoy the demotions and the athleticism on this crew.”

The third crew is IRRATIK performing to Britney spear song is “ Hold it against me “ , this crew can is not my favorite crew of all, their dance style does not speak to me as well the judges quote from JC Chaez “ The crazy movement happened the Madonna , Britney kissed was fun for any guys are watching. Um If you guys stays with us and I Hope you, guys get passed the stage of OMG Looked at me, OMG Looked at me , OMG Looked at me . JC Chasez was not impressed by those ladies at all with their sexy moves, he is more impress by the crew whom can dance and not show off their sexiness on the show.

The 4ths crew Stepboys dance to Britney Spears them song is “ If you seek Amy “ to the Mario comment “ Darrel could be the ugliest Britney Spear look due all to respect.”

The 5ths dance crew Fannypack dances to the Britney Spears song of “ Womanizer” all the judges’ loves them back again.

All 5 crew had performed and the 4 safe crew move on to the next week Flo Rida dance challenge are FannyPack, 8Flavahz, IRRKATIK, Stepboys, and the crew has to compete with the bottom crew is Mix’elements.

My predictions are that the ladies of IRRKATIK will be the bottom crew next week. And will have to fight for survival with Mix Elements to see who will stay the 3rd week and who will end going home. Although the result will have to see by next show , April 18th Wednesday on MTV next week crew have to dance to Flo Rida dance challenge.

{April 10, 2012} Live! with Kelly reveal the newest set deign to audience on Monday 4/9/2012

Live! With Kelly airs each and every day on channel ABC. The show studio set with all new designed was very different from its original show set she had done in the past with original show called “Regis and Kelly.”

* Picture and Video at the end of the blog !

Personally, I love the set design itself but NOT loving the audience seat set up compounds deign situation its very hard to see what was going on all around.

I had a chance to be part of as an audience member for Monday shows April 9th 2012; it was their very first show revealing all new set designed to the public on TV.Where my seat was, I hardly can’t see anything at all with a huge post blocking my way of views as well as the host which is Kelly Ripa and the guest host of the day was Howie Mandel.

The set designed seating was very poor through out in my opinion, where my seat was is to the left of the Kelly and Howie, the entire time I had to try to dock the lamp post in the middle to see what is going on the other side of the show when the set up table was in the middle where the audience to the left can’t even see hardly anything, not to mention we have to dock from the camera mans who was always in our way left alone I can’t see anything to begin with.

As that is not enough when Kelly and Howie went up stair level was chatting to the audience as well as guest DJ for the day was Samantha Ronson the audience downstairs has no idea what was going on at all simple because we could not see anything yet once again. All over all my friend and I were very disappointed about how they set up the audience seating design.

The show itself was great the guest on the show for the day was, Actress from Modern Family Sofia Vergara talks about her latest film and her personal life she mention how her 20 years old son went to Boston College and that he is loving the college life but at the same time is not wanting to letting people know who his mother is, another guest was judge from X-factor L.A Reid talks about how he first get his name from the band he was in and the jersey he use to wear and after that the name was born last but not least , DeAndre a contestant from American Idol was voted off which Jennifer Lopez could not save him from the perversions week .

The show itself was incredible being part of the live audience feels different then sitting at home watching the show, but as I’ve mention before I had a very hard time watching the show from where I sit, honestly I think would be better If I ended up watching at home, that is just my honest opinion.

Kelly and Howie Mandle, , again the camera man blocks half of my view, so I had to dock to see some of the show from the live audience view ! NOT VERY GREAT VEWS I MUST SAY !

Finally I can see a little bit of Kelly and Howie ! still not a great view !

DeAndrea from American Idol sings from Half the stair way !
