yeah but since we were talking about the gross receipts of the entries, the 3 days being referred to by the pep alert is the 3 day income.
------
scoopbox:
MMFF gross after 3 days: Aswang, 38.294M; Panday, 37.439M; SRR 35.845M; I Love You 30.710M; Nobody 16.928M; Mano Po 16.428M; Wapakman 1.717M
----------------
so the 3 days that is being referred to are Dec 25, 26, 27.
akala ko ba ang aim ng star cinema this year eh HUMAKOT ng award?

kung drama ang buhay ayoko nang magdrama!!! tataba akoh! hahahaha!
i think mganda ang hatak sa isang movie ang effects! binabase yan sa trailer.. syempre pag nkita mong mgnda un trailer maeenganyo ka.. tska as people always say bata ang target nila.. i dont think hindi na kelangan ng malabaul na storing huhukayin only to enjoy the show.. for people like me.. i base on story and effects but for kids? i dont think so.. syempre ang mga judges matatanda na at dun sila sa malalim na story.. kaya nga nnlo ng best on original story ang ILYG ehh..diba?.. hehe
..
..tanging nabubuhay lamang sa PANTASYA eh ang mga MANIAC...
..
..kulelat sa AWARDS...
..kelelat sa KITA...proud to be kapuso..
..
..hahahaha
..
..so ung kay VIC sotto bang award eh tira -tira din..naku wawa nmn pla si bossing lalo n si MANNY kahit isa wala eh proud KAPUSO pa nmn sya!
..
..baka talagang d ka nagbabasa..
..ung panday talaga ang wala pa akong nababasa n magandang review about sa story puro EFFECTS lang...
..
..aanhin mo ang magandang EFFECTS kung wala nmang kwenta ang STORY...
..matulog n lang ako..
..
..sa totoong buhay ang tao nabubuhay sa DRAMA at hindi sa PANTANSYA..
..ewan ko lang sa iba dyn!
