MMFF 2024 official entries Isang Himala, My Future You, and Strange Frequencies: Taiwan Killer Hospital have fewer number of cinemas, so far, compared to the other entries.

JERRY OLEA

Facebook post ng writer, composer, at musical director na si Vincent de Jesus nitong Disyembre 19, 2024, Huwebes ng hapon:

“Hi everyone, ‘Isang Himala’ has only 31 cinemas so far.

“We’ve been told it’s because of the genre and our lack of ‘box office stars.’ Hope you can give our film a chance, and if you like it, your support will go a long way in convincing more cinemas to screen us.

“Please pre-book your tickets here!”

Nag-comment sa nasabing post ang MMFF 2023 best actor na si Cedrick Juan, “Ramdam ko ito kuya Vincent A. DeJesus, ganitong-ganito sitwasyon ng GOMBURZA last year.

“Laban lang! Naniniwala ako na marami ang gugustuhin mapanood ito!”

Idinirek ito ni Pepe Diokno, na best director ng MMFF 2023 para sa GomBurZa.

Credited sa screenplay ng Isang Himala sina Vincent de Jesus at National Artist Ricky Lee.

NOEL FERRER

Sana makakuha ng DepEd , CHED, at NCCA endorsement itong Isang Himala para ma-require sa mga klase at, katulad ng GomBurZa, mapag-usapan sa mga eskuwelahan lalo pa’t gawa ng National Artist.

Bilib ako sa theater community na nagtulung-tulong para itaguyod ito, na kahit kokonti lang ang sinehan sa simula ay ma-sustain pa rin ang visibility through block screenings at advance booking ng tickets.

Magagaling ang mga nagsiganap pero flex ko lang ang talents ko.

Ang isa ay ang Aliw Awards Best Actor In A Musical awardee na si Vic Robinson, na gumanap bilang Pilo.

At heto na, si Kakki Teodoro na major-major ang galing at sana mapansin ng mga kritiko bilang Nimia sa Isang Himala.

Sa premiere night ng Strange Frequencies: Taiwan Killer Hospital nitong Disyembre 19 sa SM Megamall, dumalo si Roselle Monteverde ng Regal Entertainment.

Medyo sad siya dahil 41 cinemas lang daw ang binigay sa entry nilang My Future You starring Francine Diaz and Seth Fedelin.

Pero sa ganda ng pelikulang ito, natitiyak naming maghi-hit din ito sa takilya, kaya malamang na madadagdagan pa sila ng sinehan.

Yun nga lang, mababawasan ang mga pelikulang mahina.

FAIR SEGREGATION OF CINEMAS FOR 10 OFFICIAL ENTRIES

Pero tiniyak ni MMDA Chairman Atty. Don Artes na magiging patas ang pagbibigay ng mga sinehan sa sampung entries.

Yun lang din ang hiling ni Enrique Gil, isa sa producers ng Strange Frequencies.

Saad niya, “I think, you know, just to be fair. I don’t ask for a lot.

"Pero fair lang… kung ano yung number of cinemas na na-segregate for each film, pantay-pantay lang sana.

“But nonetheless, I support all films with its entry.

"At sana suportahan po natin hindi lang Strange Frequencies, kundi lahat po ng pelikula, na sana manood po tayo. Sana, fair lang po.”

Hindi pa raw alam ni Dondon Monteverde kung ilang sinehan ang maibibigay sa kanilang pelikulang Strange Frequencies: Taiwan Killer Hospital.

“Siyempre, sampung pelikula yun. Sana magkaroon ng equal number of theaters para pantay-pantay.

"Siyempre, yun ang gusto natin para mapanood naman ng lahat ng tao ang mga pelikula,” sabi ni Dondon.

Maliban kay Enrique, nasa cast ng Strange Frequencies: Taiwan Killer Hospital sina Jane de Leon, Rob Gomez, Alexa Miro, MJ Lastimosa, Raf Pineda, at Zarckaroo.
