QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – When a television show gets tired and old, it’s time to re-brand. That’s what happened to Coco Martin, star of the longest-running Pinoy teleserye, “Ang Probinsyano” when he re-branded as “Batang Quiapo.”
Now, the equally long-running noon-time TV series, “Eat Bulaga” is also re-branding and will be re-titled “Mga Batang Kyusi.” (Kyusi is the colloquial term for Quezon City).
The new show will still be headlined by Tito, Vic and Joey and but it wasn’t clear what new format or new spiels are to be expected by their loyal followers. As they say, “it’s hard to teach old dogs new tricks.”
BAGUIO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Baguio Bureau) – The most awaited reviews of two of the controversial Marcos/Aquino films now showing in Philippine theaters is here!
The panel of leading film critics assembled by The Adobo Chronicles gave Vince Tañada’s “Ako Si Ninoy” and Joel Lamangan’s “Oras De Peligro 5 stars!
Considering the bad reviews and box office flops of the two films, the 5-star rating given by AC is considered generous — out of a possible 20 stars, that is!
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Darryl Yap’s latest film, “Martyr or Murderer” (following the highly successful “Maid In Malacañang”) is the second of a trilogy — the third being “Mabuhay Aloha Mabuhay” (MaM).
Well, his self-proclaimed rival, Vince Tañada, will not be left behind. After his flop films “Katips” and “Ako Si Ninoy,” he has announced the filming of the third of his own trilogy. It is titled “EDSA By Golly Wow,” which chronicles the events leading up to the 1986 People Power Revolution in the Philippines.
When at first you don’t succeed, try and try again.
