“It might not have the angst and heights of the original, but this film still has some kicks to show. Perhaps this franchise needs to rest for a bit and have some meditation of its own to the sacred peach tree of heavenly wisdom.”

“Instead of Deadpool being the film that skyrocketed Ryan’s career, this could have been a surprise hit—if only it had embraced its emotional potential.”

This score was originally intended for another project of mine I'm currently developing, but over time, I realized its value in having a life of its own. Naaalala ko recording this audio sample on my phone. Upon revisiting it, I wondered if it could evolve into something more than just this piece of me singing some weird sounds. My cousin was generous enough to agree on working on it. October 24 noong nag-request ako ng meeting with her. I sent her the audio, and she did her best to create something similar or even greater than what I initially produced. A constant back and forth, and finally, here we are, seeing it come to fruition. Whole other story pa yung deciding to produce a video for it, but here we are lol

One thing we both agreed upon regarding this project is simply to have fun with it. Producing art is something we're both very passionate. Obviously, itong project is not an industry shaking or mag v-viral. We did not care for any. It was not the intention It's something we've created not to please anyone—but ourselves, affirming that this is something we love—a step towards our dreams.
