Babbling Point

Hosted by Kevin Smith, with guests Jason Lee, Stan Lee, Mark Hamill and JJ Abrams. DINNER FOR FIVE was show conceptualized and hosted by Jon Favreau. My cousin Oliver gave me a copy of the first season. I lent it to someone and now I don't remember who has it. Thank God for YouTube and I was able to find this episode where Kevin Smith played guest-host of the show. I like the format of the show. It's very informal. Not the usual host behind the desk and the guest is seated on the couch. I think more interesting stories are told over food and drinks. The guests end up talking about things they wouldn't normally mention during an interview. Ever since I saw this show, I thought it would great to replicate it locally. I have seen some local shows attempt something like this, but somehow it doesn't come off as interesting. I think what makes DINNER FOR FIVE work well is the editing. They've chosen all of the good parts of the conversation and edited out the boring part

No... no... this is not the latest incarnation of the Justice League. This is a picture of me and Kajo at the Visprint booth at the recent Manila International Book Fair. (Thanks to Wella for taking the pic) And before you ask, "Who's that character beside Gloomy Kambal?" ... let me tell you that that's Bob Ong. I meant ... that's Bob Ong's KAPITAN SINO character. (Now that I look at all these characters together, it might be a bad idea to do a "marvel team-up" starring all of them. Maybe we can do that next year.) Anyway, we just wanted to say thank you to every one who dropped by the Visprint booth while we were there. Thanks to every one who pre-paid for Book 3. Thank you for being so excited and for being so patient. We're just putting the finishing touches to it right now. The Book Fair also gave us the chance to sit and chat with Alan "Girl Trouble" Navarra , David "Penumbra" Hontiveros , Carlo "Ang Kagilagilalas n
