Selecta Cornetto is known for its affordable price among Filipino consumers and for the first time, Selecta has collaborated with Taylor Swift's team to promote her current concert tour, Red Tour. Red Tour is her leading and current world tour that supports her latest album, Red which topped the Billboard 200 album charts and received Grammy nominations. The limited edition Cornetto ice cream is a rare find to groceries here in Philippines, but it already hit the stores earlier in our Southeast Asian neighbor countries like Indonesia and Malaysia.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The limited edition ice cream (together with the other flavors like Vanilla, Classic Chocolate, White Chocolate, Black & White, and Cornetto Disc) are confirmed to contain a text promo code which in turn can be used as a raffle entry to a concert ticket in the Red Tour as well as to other Taylor Swift souvenir items. Since the availability of the said ice cream is already confirmed in the mentioned countries on the second paragraph, its also as well confirmed that Taylor Swift will have her Red Tour in the countries mentioned.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Meanwhile, it is confirmed already that Taylor Swift will include the Philippines in her Red Tour dated June 6, 2014 at SM Mall of Asia Arena. Prior to its announcement of the concert and the announcement of the ticket sales, the seats at the said event got sold out in less than two hours.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The said Red Cornetto ice cream is priced at P25 on selected groceries and convenience stores, available on Black Forest flavor only.

If moviegoers would be asked of what is the best 2013 movie they've watched this year. You might find out that some of them would answer that Pacific Rim is one of them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

In order to combat them, humans living in the countries near Pacific created the Jaegers, colossal robots capable of fighting them. But as years go by, the Kaiju had adapted to the fighting strategies of the Jaegers which makes them grow stronger as the years go by. The surviving Jaegers were out to be sent to Hong Kong for last stand because the UN itself would stop funding the Jaegers and instead, use it to create the anti-Kaiju wall.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The effects of the movie can be relatively compared to the three Transformers films, in which both movies revolve in robots and mechanized technology. The high accounts of science fiction will also encourage people to watch and its revolution of its storyline to the robots and monsters will surely make the movie action -packed. Also, the movie will also give people idea of what is a Kaiju. For everyone's information, Godzilla itself is not a dinosaur, but a Kaiju as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The plot mostly revolves in the year 2020 to 2025 where the Kaijus started to grow stronger in fighting. As movie watchers say in this film, the plot itself lacks some stories and scenarios of how really the Jaegers have started. Its like the movie itself shall be the ending of the story. More people also wants to know the background of the other 3 Jaegers (being <i>Cherno Alpha of Russia, Crimson Typhoon of China, Coyote Tango of Japan, and Striker Eureka of Australia</i>) before the movie. Most of the parts of the movie only revolves to the American jaeger, <i>Gipsy Danger</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As an overall verdict, this movie will only receive 4-stars due to some incompleteness in the plot. This movie has great effects, and storyline and a must watch for everyone, but curiosity will always arise on other scenes especially the one that is mentioned in this review.</div>
