  2. Whatever the truth is, this is good publicity for HTF, which it badly needs.

  3. Ay nagkatalo lang sa dates ng implementation. Ang hirap sino ba talaga ang nagkamali. Hehe. Congrats na direk. Pero bakit ganon speech mo sabi mo hindi yung pagkakadisqualify sa best picture ang reklamo mo. Eh yun naman talaga ang first reklamo.

  5. ano daw? nov.5 pa sila ininform? gaano ba kahirap pagdesisyunan yan. sabi nyo nga may rules and reulation kayo sinusunod? kung ininform kayo nov pa at nasa rules nyo na bawal, dati pa sana dinisqualify nyo na or ininform nyo na may pede sila mag join ng mmff pero disqulify sila sa awards. bakit kailangan patagalin ng ganito? ay grabe gaano ba kahirap pagdesisyunan ang gantong bagay? kailangan ba ng korte o senate o ng SC?

  6. But to announce the disqualification a day before the awarding? That's total BS. Grabe namang deliberation yan.

  7. Lame excuse, Dami nyong kuda. Kung binigay nyo na lang ang para sa kanila wala na sanang gulo. Tao naman kayo kaya subukan nyo umasal na parang tao. Sabi nga.. E abay kung iyan nga ang totoo e di good riddance na lang sa inyo

  8. The point is MMDA delivered the decision just a day (?) before the showing of the film...a clear sign of STUPIDITY. The exchanged of communications took place on October, FYI.

  9. Too shallow! And how can JM and Echo Win against JLC and Merryl...i watched both movies...anlayo naman ng acting ng dalawa compared to JLC and Merrly. Magaling sila but mas heavy yong ginawa nila JLC

    1. Hindi din naman si JLC nanalong best actor so overhyped din!

  11. This is bull. The other side has their proof and sinabi yung dates na sinend nila. Kalokohan 'tong sinasabi ng MMFF. Palibhasa nahuli haha. Oh well, this is added publicity for HTF, hope it will translate into ticket sales like it did for Heneral Luna.

  12. Your certification of compliance by HTF in October is enough proof that you have cleared them of any deficiency. Was it overlooked? Or this whole mayhem is a desperate act of sabotaging the producers, taking away their chance of bagging the award that we all know is worthy of this movie?

    1. nka-oo n sila sa cinemaone bgo p sila sinali s mmff. last addition ang htf s list ng mmff noong may ngbacked-out lng n entry. plus yun cinemaone nmn nila by invitation lng at walang bayad so walang rules n nalabag ang htf.

  14. Pero may 1 month sila para magsalita about the issue, at idisqualify ang htf sa festival or kung saan man. Ba't ngayon lang sila nagsalita about the matter?

  15. Why announce the disqualification on the festival itself though? When it could've been done as early as November, when they were given the letter.

    And a much better question: Why are you so incompetent, paasa, cruel, and unfair to both film people and viewers, MMFF folks?

  16. Best Director for a film that was disqualified for imaginary reasons. They honor the director but fail to honor the fruit of his work. What idiocy.

    G*g*han na lang talaga ang siste sa MMFF. Walang credibility ang awards na yan.

  17. Yung last paragraph akala mo naman napaka extravagant ng festival nila. Pa-highly masyado. Kacheapan naman lagi mga palabas. Iilan lang yung may sense. Aldub fan ako, pero tbh, kababawan din naman talaga yung pelikula. Sana iangat man lang yung kalidad, para na din sa mga artista, don't settle for mediocre movies kung totoong artist ka.

  18. They said the movie was disqualified because of non-disclosure. It took them more than 6 weeks to deliberate? Pang spider-man ang last paragraph- with great power comes great responsibility.

  19. Gobyerno 'to. So what's new. Anomalous talaga.
