LONDON, England (The Adobo Chronicles) –  ‘Harry Potter’ author J.K. Rowling may have publicly expressed disapproval for racy photos of Matthew Lewis in a recent magazine spread, but it sparked inspiration in what could be her next hit series.

The Adobo Chronicles has learned that the famed British author has started to pen her next book series based on the real-life stories of three of the actors who brought ‘Harry Potter characters’ to life in the film versions of her book : Danielle Radcliff, Rupert Grint and Lewis.

There is no sorcery in this new series, just the realities of life transitions from young innocence to worldy and sexy adult life. It is tentatively titled ‘Coming of Age.’

Expect a lot skin if and when Rowling’s new series hits the big screen. In 3-D! It would, of course, star Radcliff, Lewis and Grint.

Sorry kids, it’ll be PG-13.

VICE PRESIDENT BINAY PROMISES TO NAME NORA AUNOR NATIONAL ARTIST IF ACTRESS ENDORSED HIS CANDIDACY

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) –  With his waning popularity exacerbated by recent allegations of unexplained wealth, Vice President Jejomar Binay is turning to the country’s superstar, Miss Nora Aunor, for a much-needed boost to his quest for the presidency.

Binay remains the frontrunner in national polls on who should succeed President NoyNoy Aquino after the latter’s term expires in 2016.  However, in recent weeks, Senator Grace Poe has steadily climbed in the polls, inching closer to Binay. Too close for comfort.

Wanting to capitalize on the popularity of Aunor, Binay promised that if the multi-awarded acrtress endorsed his candidacy for president, he would name Aunor as a national artist during his first year as head of state. (Aquino had previously snubbed Aunor by refusing to name her as national artist despite strong recommendations by the national nominating committee.)

It is too late for Binay: Aunor has just endorsed Senator Poe as her choice for president in the 2016 elections.

Political analysts have said that with Aunor’s endorsement, Poe will likely overcome Binay’s lead in the polls as early as next week.

Some have even suggested that a Poe might consider choosing Aunor as her vice presidential running mate.

FILM STILL DO NOT PURGE - Bradley Cooper, left, and Rachel McAdams star in Columbia Pictures'

HONOLULU, Hawaii (The Adobo Chronicles) – Imagine a film set in paradise — Hawaii — where no Hawaiians, Asians or other Pacific Islanders live.

That’s the take-away from Columbia Pictures’ new film, ‘Aloha’ opening next week in theaters nationwide.

Directed by Cameron Crowe (‘Jerry Maguire’), the film features a stellar cast that includes Bradley Cooper, Emma Stone, Bill Murray, Rachel McAdams, and Alec Baldwin.

The film is about a celebrated military contractor who returns to the site of his greatest career triumphs and re-connects with a long-ago love while unexpectedly falling for the hard-charging Air Force watchdog assigned to him.

(Couldn’t they have filmed it in North Carolina?)

An Asian-American group is blasting  Crowe for having “whitewashed” Asian-Pacific Islanders out of his new film set in Hawaii.

Other groups, including many that consist of Hawaii residents, are threatening to boycott the film.

In an effort to quell growing criticism, Columbia Pictures announced today that it has changed the title of the film to ‘AlowHa’ which many critics are calling a new “low” in desperate damage-control.

We think it’s  ALOWblowtoHAwaii.
