2008 MMFF entries

Ang Tanging Ina Nyong Lahat - This is another sequel to the original comedy movie “Ang Tanging Ina” which happened to claim so many awards in one of the previous MMFF 5 years ago including Best Actress by Ai Ai Delas Alas, this time again with co-star Eugene Domingo. This is another Star Cinema offering this 2008 directed by Wenn V. Deramas and script is written by Mel Del Rosario. WATCH THE VIDEO HERE.
Iskul Bukol 20 Years After - The return of the Escalera Brothers is here. The wacky combination of Tito, Vic and Joey rocks the cinemas this year 2008 with probably the biggest bang in their trio after 20 years of silence of the Iskul Bukol sitcome in the early 80’s. Today is the time they try to give more laughter to the people from the Philippines with this entry to the MMFF in the first ever sequel to the long lost Iskul Bukol in Wanbol University of the dreaded wise men from Wanbol University. Iskul Bukol story and screenplay is written by Bibeth Oteza with director Tony Y. Reyes for Octo-Arts/M-Zet Production.
Baler - A Viva Films presentation, this movie stars the looks and likes of two of the most beautiful people in the showbiz industry in the Philippines in the person of Anne Curtis and Jericho Rosales, Nikki Bacolod, Joel Torre, Philipi Salvador and Leo Martinez. Script is written by Roy Iglesias and directed by Mark Meily. This movie is somewhat about the seige of Baler in the war set-up era where a love story is written while the seige of Baler Quezon is going on. An epic love story under the war beseiged Baler, Quezon in the early Spanish Era. WATCH THE VIDEO HERE.
One Night Only - by Canary Films
Shake Rattle and Roll X - The Classic Trilogy horror film from the early 90’s (as far as I can remember). This movie offer from Regal Films, directed by Mike Tuvierra and Topel Lee is a trilogy of horrors in 3 parts and episodes. Dividing the horrors this Christmas story turned horror into 3 to give more fun and thrill in cost-effective way by rendering as good as 3 movies rolled in one. Stars include some of the brightest stars of Regal teeners like Kim Chiu, Gerald Anderson, Erich Gonzales, Roxan Guinoo and more.WATCH THE VIDEO HERE.
Magkaibigan - Under Maverick Films with last year’s best actor Jinngoy Estrada producing and starring in the movie. It is actually a movie tribute for a best friend who passed away, Rudy Fernandez this year.
Dayo ( a great animated movie you must see ) - Under Cutting Edge, this is the first animated movie accepted to take part in the MMFF 2008 series of awarding held each year and a history in the making. This animated movie is directed by Robert Quilao with Artemio Abad and Eric Cabahug. I am telling you this is something that Filipinos can be really really proud of because of the quite unique collaboration done here as you see one of the best if not the best animated movie ever done in the Philippines since Panday. The animation is indeed the best among what I have seen done in the Philippines and proudly Filipino. I personally salute this effort to render such quality so that investors for Philippine animation will see that it is possible with some of the best an animation artists in the world proven to have come from the Philippines and as seen in this movie.

Survivor Philippines: Dibdiban!

the castaways are taken back in time as the previous challenges are tied up for the next immunity challenge. the huge wooden ball, exotic food and Thai calendar tested again the 4's physical and mental strengths. this challenge was the biggest of them all because it also gives a brand new car.
when they are all digging on the sand to find the cubes of the Thai calendar, Cris destracted Rob and on a negative tone asked Rob how sure he is safe on the next TC.
JC overcome all obstacles outplaying the others. the twist is, between immunity and the car, JC only has to get one and give the other prize for another castaway. thinking that he is safe already, he gave immunity to Rob and got the car instead. Rob poked on Cris' chest as if saying "kainin mo sinabi mo" and Cris just grinned.
magyayabang na naman si Rob mamaya sa TC.

Ohmski's Blogline: Bloggers eat Super Bowl of China
we have got the chance to see how these very tempting foods are made as Mr. Bob Vallar, the MK Director of Big Buddha Restaurant, took us per batch at the kitchen and introduced us to Chef Mike and Chef Roy, the head chefs for Super Bowl of China. Chef Roy showed us how to make the Crispy Mandarin Chicken while Wok Chef, Chef Mike demonstrated a little on making the Seafood Chopsuey. though the temperature was a little high inside the kitchen, the information was priceless. a little tip on deep-frying : if you are to deep-fry and wanting to check if the oil is hot enough, use a dry chopstick and dip it in the oil. if bubbles come out of the chopstick, then it's ready for use.
as a group goes into the kitchen, the rest of the bloggers are in contest mood pimping their personal bowl. art materials are provided and just let the bloggers squeeze the creative juice to design the humble bowl. and as everyone is busy with the bowls, food just kept coming in until we surrendered. haha!
the night ended with the announcement of winners for Most Creative, Most Original Design and Most Festive. congrats to the winners. and lastly, everyone did not go home without a bag to carry as the hosts handed out 2 boxes of treat: a Christmas ham and roasted chicken! how generous is that for a blog event? thanks to Yehey and Super Bowl of China. love 'em and hoping to see you again on your next event!
Super Bowl of China branches are located at the 2nd level Glorietta 4, Ayala Center, Makati City; 3rd Level Chefs Avenue Festival Mall, Alabang; 2nd level SM City North Edsa, Quezon City; 3rd level Gateway Mall Araneta Center Cubao, Quezon City; Ground floor SM Mall of Asia, Pasay City; M1 Activity Center Trinoma Mall North Edsa, Quezon City; Ground floor Midtown Wing of Robinsons Place Manila; Ground floor Bluewave Marquinton Mall, Marikina City; and at the affiliated Big Buddha Restaurant located at the 2nd level of Greenbelt 3 in Ayala Center, Makati City. And watch out for the Grand Reopening of Super Bowl of China at the 4th level of SM Megamall’s newest wing in Mandaluyong City coming very soon!

there's something about askals

so yung sina Deyesebel at Lebron, laging naglalandian. ang matindi, yung mga nag-aalaga ang nape-pressure magtira ng pagkain kasi talagang riot yung dalawa kapag kakain na sila. at dapat nasa kulungan ang isa para dun ihain yung kakainin nya. ang masaya dito sa dalawa, naglalandian sila. mas malandi si Dyesebel kesa kay Lebron. babae kasi (haha! sexist!) at mas bata at maliit. pag aalis kame ng bahay, laging nakabuntot yung dalawa at dapat iniwan sila sa loob ng gate, ipipilit nila ang mga katawan nila sa railings. kahit magkatili-tili ang mga asong ito basta maihatid lang kame papalabas ng subdivision. nasanay na kame kahit mapalabas na talaga sila ng subdivision! dati talagang pinapauwi namin ung mga aso para bantayan nalang yung bahay. pero ang sarap isipin na TCCIC ang drama ng aso nyo diba? tapos pag dadating ka ng bahay, parang tuwang-tuwa sila na sasalubungin ka.
this is an Animal Planet feature. kapag hinahatid kame palabas ng subdivision, umiihi sila sa tabi-tabi tapos aamuyin nila. tapos naalala ko nalang na parang gumagawa sila ng marka sa mga iniihian nila at yun ang Hanzel and Gretel nila papauwi ng bahay. o diba, ang galing? kaya nung nalaman naming naka-jugjug si Lebron sa labas ng subdivision, hindi na kame nagtaka kung pano pa sya nakauwi ng bahay.
naging loyal na din si Lebron samin (si Dyesebel pala pinamigay na sa kapitbahay after 3 weeks ata) at kahit kelan safe pa rin yung bahay.
