Sam loveless pa rin ngayong Pasko

Hindi pa tiyak ni Sam Milby, kung uuwi ba siya ng New Orleans, USA to spend the holidays there.

Last year kasi, it was one of his sisters ang duma­ting sa Pilipinas para rito mag-Pasko with him.

If ever daw he will spend dito sa Pilipinas ang Pasko, he will make sure he makes the most of it. So far daw, ang ilang Pasko na pinalipas niya sa atin were naging memorable.

Kahit kaya wala siyang special someone? Mata­gal-tagal na rin mula nang mag-break-up sila ni Anne Curtis. Henceforth, wala na tayong nabalitaan na babaeng ‘‘ipinalit’’ niya sa kanyang puso kay Anne.

Although, nagkaroon ng balitang tinangka niyang ligawan, one after the other, of course, sina Jessy Mendiola at Shaina Magdayao.

Come to think of it. Both ladies are loveless, too, like Sam.

Unang beses kasi Nanay at kapatid ni Daniel excited naNG makita ang aktor sa karosa

Tiyak na rito sa Pilipinas palilipasin ng Bra­zi­lian-Japanese and Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) All In champ na si Daniel Matsunaga ang Pasko, and most likely the New Year too.

Unang-una na nga, nasa Pilipinas ang kanyang mother and sister na si Vanessa, who is married to a Filipino businessman.

But foremost of course, is that, may movie siya for the Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF). He is in the Flight 666 episode of Shake, Rattle and Roll (SRR) XV.

Like every actor na sa unang pagkakataon ay makakasali sa MMFF Parade of Stars na nakatakda two days before the official ope­ning of the MMFF on December 25, excited si Daniel na mapasama with all the other members of the cast of SRR XV sa karosa which will be assigned to them.

Equally excited ang kanyang mom and sister, who will certainly watch the parade.

Jasmine kinakabahang pumarada dahil sa fans nina Kathryn at Daniel

Ang pagkakaroon din ng MMFF entry na Bonifacio, Ang Unang Pangulo, ang dahilan why Jasmine Curtis is foregoing her plan to leave for Australia.

Yearly, naging parang, kumbaga, ritual na ni Jasmine ang dalawin ang kanyang mommy, who lives with her siblings in Australia, so she can spend Christmas and the New Year with them.

Like Daniel, excited din si Jasmine to join the Parade of Stars sa unang pagkakataon. She hopes nga lang daw na Kathryn Bernardo’s fans will be kind to her. And huwag siyang kantiyawan ng mga ito, simply because she plays leading-lady to Daniel Padilla in the movie.

Mga produ ng Bonifacio hindi nangangambang maluLUgi ang pelikula

Sina Robin Padilla at Vina Morales ang bida ng Bonifacio: Ang Unang Pangulo. Directed by Enzo Williams, it also stars Eddie Garcia, RJ Padilla, Isko Moreno, Rommel Padilla, Dennis Marasigan, Lou Veloso, Cholo Barretto, Richard Quan, Ping Medina, Joem Bascon, and Isabel Oli, to name a few.

Intended for international release, Robin (represented by brother, Rommel), co-produced Bonifacio… with Atty. Danilo Patron and Fer­nando Ortigas, with Rina Navarro at Ed Rocha as co-producers.

Bonifacio…, pagma­malaki ni Robin, is the first local movies na gumamit ng ARRI Alexa camera with anamorphic lenses and a complete ARRI Raw post-production overflow.

Kaya, anang isa sa producers, hindi sila nanga­ngamba sa magiging fate ng pelikula sa takilya. Tiyak, bawing-bawi nila ang more or less, malaking halaga na ginastos nila sa production.

Well, a whooping P90M. Yes, P90M.

Ang hindi mababayaran ng salapi, dugtong pa ng producer, ay ang prestige na ibibigay ng Bonifacio ‘di lang sa local movies kung sakali, kundi sa buong Pilipinas, since umani na ito ng tagumpay sa ibang bansa.
