    1. Magtigil na sa award chisnes na Ito ha! Move on na! Kaya best picture ang Bonifacio coz of the upgraded pixels na ginamit nila!

    2. Me percentage ba MMFF sa total na kinita ng filmfest? Kung Meron man Saan kaya Ito napupunta? Naalala ko na naman yung road users tax na binabayaran taon taon....

    3. A.G.R.E.E !!! Move on na! Ang important e yung box office rop grossing! Bakit naman ako gagawa ng pelikula na isasali sa MMFF para lang sa insignificant awards! Well yung mga idealist will recon na quality film na entertaining dapat ang mapanuod. E nakita niyo ba mga big time producers na kasali every year???? Pag me naalis jan magtatampo pa mga yan....si ejercito nga 3 years straight na. Money, money, money, awards are for theater auditorium at school!

  2. Eh di sana hindi na lang pinaghiwa-hiwalay ang mga awards kung automatic na sa iyo na ang isang category pag napanalunan mo ang isa pang category. Hirap sa mga Pinoy, walang nananalo. Lagi lang nadadaya. #sambayanangampalaya

    5. Wag shunga.. di ito basketball na ang champion team, dun ang best coach. Even oscars hindi ganyan.. anung nasa pinas kasi tayo. Hindi lang naman nakabase sa director ang pagiging best picture

    6. Nangyayari nga yan sa Oscars pero major upset ang tawag dun kasi nga hindi rin expected. Wag magmagaling baks!

  3. I have watched bonifacio and overall maganda naman sya pero acting wise, sablay sina robin, vina, daniel at jasmine. Hindi deserving si robin kung sakaling manalo sya.

    3. Ayan ganyan na lang natin pagtawanan ang mga bayani natin tapos nagtataka kayo why we're a third world country?

    3. Ano daw? So you mean ang MVP mapupunta lang sa nanalong team?

    4. Ano ka ba 10:41, sports na yun MVP, natural points per game na ang labanan. Movies ang usapan. At huwag kang pilosopo 1:09, hirap nyo lang talagang umintindi.

      Delete
    5. Bakit pinaghiwalay pa award? Eh di dapat best picture slash best director ang tawag sa award kung parang buy one take one ang gusto nyo...

      Delete
    6. 12:29 isipan din kasi ng logic, best picture nga eh tapos ang best director from another movie? Sus only in the Phils

      Delete
    7. Only in the philippines? Sa oscars hindi naman ganyan na kapag best picture eh best director na.... so mga walang logic ang judges ng oscars? Pa only only in the philippines kapang nalalaman..

    8. 6:06 manood ka ng Oscars bago mo sabihing "only in the Philippines".

  5. Ilang beses na 'tong nangyari sa Oscars pero di naman sya naging malaking issue. Accept na lang po natin ang pagkatalo, marami pa namang pagkakataon in the future.

  7. Not true, being a winner of best picture movie doesn't make a director of that movie a winner too. Look at the past mmff awards, there were instances na magkaiba ang movies ng mga nanalong best picture and best director. Just accept the result and move on.

  10. hindi kasi matanggap ng mga kapamilya na walang nakuhang awards ang Praybeyt at Febg shui, kaya Bonifacio ang pinagtatanggol nila.

    5. Hahahaha... ikonek daw sa station rivalry. Da hu ba? Si Mercado na nanalo from a film na di produced ng Kamuning? Si Dingdong nagawa yan from movies by Star Cinema. Big deal? Derek? Star na ng GMA yan? No biggie ang ABC 5 na di rin producer.

      Magbunyi tayo for the winners, they deserve it. I agree. Pero bawasan ang ampalaya mode sa kita ng ibang movies.

    6. Ang shunga ni anon 12:21, talagang isiningit at pinagbintangan ang KaF na kinukuwestyon ang mga nanalo, aber, saan mo napanood or nabasa? Yun nagcomment sa tv ay viewers nila at di mismo ang KaF. SIno ba producer ng Bonifacio...? ...si Robin di ba so sila ang kumuwestyon, ano kayang pake ng KaF sa kanila 'no....i guess mas importante yun kinita na bawing bawi.

  11. Nangyari na yan sa 78th Oscars...
    Ang Lee won Best Director for Brokeback Mountain but the film didn't win Best Picture...
    Ano pinaglalaban nila???

  12. Madalas nga manalo ang director at movie ng parehong film, pero hindi laging nagyayari yun. Feeling naman nung Felix Fernandez na automatic agad ang pagkapanalo ng director. I haven't seen Bonifacio nor EOP, ano ba masasabi ng mga nakapanood na dito?

  13. Sino nanalo ng bedt director?

  22. I appreciate the fact that Bonifacio was included in this year's MMFF to offset the non-sensical and formula films. But I also believe that a Best Picture win does not automatically translate to a Best Director win. Credible award giving bodies such as the Academy Awards have similar results too:

    2014 Oscars
    Best Picture: 12 Years a Slave
    Best Director: Alfonso Cuaron (Gravity)

    2013 Oscars
    Best Picture: Argo
    Best Director: Ang Lee (Life of Pi)

    I know people hate here international vs local comparisons. But just saying that the argument which the Bonifacio's team is pushing is rather weak.

    This is the only year wherein I find the results close to credible actually :p

    ReplyDelete
  27. huh? nanalo ng best picture ang 12 years of slave pero nanalong best director si alfonso cuaron for gravity. Napanuod ko yung Bonifacio, hindi naman talaga impressive ang pagkakagawa, hindi sya pwedeng itapat sa Rizal, bayani lang ang isinabuhay nila pero hindi ibig sabihin mas me kwenta na sila kumpara ke EOP, My Big Bossing o Praybet Benjamin.

  32. Producer ba ng bonifacio si tunying? Bakit sobrang naghihimutok ang butsi nya? Napaka one-sided ha. Pwede mo nman iangat ang artista ng Bonifacio pro huwag naman hilahin pababa ang kapwa. Kalayaan sa crab mentality yan ang tunay kailangan iwaksi sa pag-iisip ng ilang mga Pilipino. Grabe panlalait mo Tunying para iangat lamang ang personal mong kagustuhan. Wala ka ng credibility para sakin.

    Best Director - Brillante Mendoza for Thy Womb (partida hindi nanalo ang Thy Womb sa 3rd, 2nd or Best Picture ha)

    MMFF 2009
    Best Picture - Ang Panday
    Best Director - Joel Lamangan (Mano Po)

    1. Agree.

      Best Picture doesn't necessarily imply the best directing by the director.

      Delete
  36. Best director siguro has something to do with the technique and effectivity of the director in telling the story which includes actor's performance while best film covers the totality of the film, screenplay, story, cinematography among others. Basically, the two awards have different set of criteria thus the best film's director may not always be the best director.

  37. im so sad for Kapamilya and the Kapamilyas (fans)..... madumi naman talaga ang maglaro ang Kapamilya kahit sa sarili nilang talents diba? and so sad kasi madami pa ding fans na kung makatanggol sa ABS akala mo, sobrang galing ng network nila, saksakan naman ng dami ng baho

  39. 10 million pa lang daw kasi Bonifacio, 100 million daw nagastos. Baka mainit lang ulo kasi malaki lugi nila. Intindihin na lang natin. Baka way din nila yan para pag-usapan pelikula nila sabay asa na madagdagan pa kahit 100,000 yung ticket sales.

  42. Baka ang dapat kwestyunin eh kung deserving ba talaga ang Bonifacio for best picture. Too full of yourselves! Kakahiya para kayong spoiled brats na hindi nasunod ang layaw. Ciempre mas gusto nio yung sarili niong gawa pero pag pinanood yung iba hahanap at hahanap ng butas.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Actually this year bilib ako dahil hindi nila binase sa pinakamataas na kita ang pagiging best picture. I haven't watched Bonifacio but I've watched Praybeyt and English Only, Please. I'd have to say na Praybeyt e talagang walang sense. English Only,Please ay deserving. Ang di ko lamg makitang deserving e si Derek kasi parang di naman pang Best Actor yung ganap nya don. Parang normal na acting nya. Pero saludo ko kay Jennylyn.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Gusto ata ng Bonifacio, kanila na lahat ng awards.

    ReplyDelete
  45. For me, "Best Picture" is awarded to the film that had the best impact. "Best Director", on the other hand, is awarded to the director that told the film's story in his capacity as filmmaker. Minsan kasi 'yung mga pelikula na maganda ang impact, hindi naman smooth ang pagkakaexecute all throughout. Basta maganda ang mensahe ng pelikula at hindi sabog-sabog ang kinalabasan (*cough*Praybeyt*cough*), pwede nang matanghal na "Best Picture:

    Maganda ang impact ng Bonifacio pero mas maganda ang transition ng story-telling sa English Only Please.

  46. Dapat nga ung ibang movies ang magreklamo kasi kasali yang Bonifacio. Every time may film fest and may kasaling movie about a hero un ang nananalo na best picture. Maybe not always pero most of the time. So mas lugi ung ibang movies.

  50. Dito lang sa pinas naging best actress or actor ang lead star sa isang comedy movie?!
    HAHAHA! . . .definitely, ONLY IN THE PHILIPPINES! !!!!

    ReplyDelete
  51. Lahat nalang ng claims niyo e palpak.

    1. Dito lang sa Pilipinas na magkaibang pelikula ang nanalo sa Best Director at Best Picture.

    --> Siguro naman nasagot na yan sa taas ng ibang comments. Hello, nangyayare yan sa Oscar/Golden Globe/Actors Guild etc. E yung pelikula ngang The Hurt Locker nanalong Best Picture sa Oscars without winning Minor Awards, gayung Avatar ang may pinakamaraming awards.

    2. Sa Pilipinas lang nananalo ng Best Actress at Best Actor ang mga artisang gumanap ng comedy.

    ---> Isa nanamang malaking ka-mangmangan. Jennifer Lawrence, Helen Hunt, Jack Nicholson, Kevin Spacey etc. won a best actor/actress award with their portrayal in a comedy movie.

    Nakakatawa na talaga tong mga fans ng Bonifacio na puro claims ng claims ng mga walang katotohanang bagay. Im so happy for Bonifacio kasi nanalo silang best picture pero dahil sa ginagawa ng mga fans ng Boni, nakakaasar tuloy.

    Dear Boni fans, I'm sorry to inform you, pero EOP was robbed of an award that is rightfully theirs. And you know which award was that? The Best Picture award!!!!!!

    Kaya please stop claiming things. Ok!!

  52. Good call about Bonifacio. A major flop for all intents and purposes. People are aware of the value of this movie and it has a good message. BUT what destroyed it is this.... If producers wanted to generate and recoup money, they should have used Kathniel and they did not. They could not draw people in and this was exacerbated by a ridiculous audio scandal. Do you think Kath fans will forget what happened? Bad call to let Jasmine Curtis go all over media to promote it and even address issues with so many explanations that made it look worse. To everyone who thought that their strategy will work- this is a fine example of hubris.
    Remember, fans will probably not forget.. Next time, do not tick fans off, learn a lesson. Thanks..
