Consequences of Greed

For now, decisions have put a period to a much-awaited project. The atmosphere is too gloomy that insiders already believe that the anticipated reunion might never see the light of day. When the news was revealed, the fans were left with disappointment, as their hopes of seeing Veteran Actor (VA) team up with Movie Partner (MP) on screen were dashed. It was only wishful thinking, anyway.

Over the decades, VA and MP together has always been considered an impossible dream, as the two had a falling out in their personal lives. Ironically, despite just being diplomatic on their personal levels, their fans never wavered in rooting for the couple, unlike today, when loveteam fans clearly distinguish themselves on either side of the partners. The case of VA and MP is different, as their fans are for the partnership and not just for VA or MP.

Apparently, someone thought that the time is right to bring back the magic of VA and MP and make the younger generation see why the two have always had that chemistry, which remains iconic. Thus, feelers were sent and initial meetings were set. Fingers were crossed that the parties would reach an agreement. Unfortunately, the meetings ended up with nothing.

Allegedly, VA has realized his worth in his teamup with MP. During their heydays, VA was allegedly getting lesser pay than MP even though they were built up as a loveteam. Today, things have changed. VA’s camp insisted that VA should already be at par with MP. Coming from a top-rating show, VA wanted top billing and higher pay than MP. Accordingly, he knows that any project he will do with MP will be a great hit and he believes that he ought to be well-compensated. The offer was “take it or leave it.”

The camp of MP turned down the demands of VA, as the accomplishments of the actress are far more than what VA has done in the same time. Besides, on her own, she has a better probability of getting a box-office hit than MP. Thus, the offer of VA was thumbed down.

Even if fans would be sentimental at seeing VA and MP again, the reality is that the partnership of the two is but a business deal with high risk. With the unpredictable movie market, there is no assurance that their movie would indeed earn as expected. So, now, no movie will ever happen as long as the two camps will refuse to budge on their offers.

    1. Hay, kahit increase ang pay or not, nega pa rin kasama si S sa totoo lang. OA, narcissistic and pabebe kaya siya. Toxic ang months ni G while shooting the movie kaya.

      Delete
    2. Bakit, si MP ba ang magpo-produce ng movie? Sya ba ang gagastos? Hindi naman ah... MP is still living in the shadows of the past.. mas "sikat" at "kilala" si VA ngayon compared to MP dahil naging remarkable ang role nya sa last project nya.. VA has all the right to demand a higher pay..

      Delete
    3. Yuh, e sa yan ang tingin ni VA na deserve niya sa sakit ng ulo na siguradong idudulot ni MP no.

    4. True 1:27 am. Isang TS lang ang nag-hit parang superstar na tingin sa sarili niya.

    4. Meron naman talaga. Besides pwede din naman nag taas ng presyo dahil alam na alam nyang magagamit ng husto ang personal nilang buhay lalo na si S eh di na malaman tinatakbo ng utak. OA na sa pagpapapansin sa totoo lang.

    2. Dati na siyang ganyan. Dakilang user.Wag na lang nga talagang magmovie. Kahit fan ako ng LT nila, keri na walang pelikula.

  8. Grabe si G. Nagka isang teleserye na naghit, akala mo naman super big star na.

    1. Why not strike while the iron is hot? I would do the same, di mo alam kung makakuha pa sya ng malaking payday in the future. I don't blame G for wanting a bigger piece of the pie this time around. Ano ba ang pinagmamalaki ni S? Yung last movie andami supporting cast para makahatak sa takilya.

      Delete
  9. Hanap nalang ibang partner for S. For sure naman kahit na walang leading man yan sa movie, kikita yan kasi anlaki ng fanbase niya.

    1. Oo naman. Daming magagaling na actors dito na puede niyang makasama. Kapal ng muks ni G.

      Delete
  10. Kahit mas fresh si G mas proven ang lakas ni S sa hatak sa masa. Pero mas concern ako dun s feelings ng isang tao na nasasaktan nilang pareho.

    1. Oo nga. Baka ang emo na non ngayon. Huhu.

  11. They should somehow realize that they are both very blessed that they still have a following up to this day. A loveteam is a frigin loveteam, they should both separate their individual careers here. Ayaw nalang nila pasalamat compare sa mga kasabayan nila oh anjan parin sila? Too much greeed. Walang contentment.

  12. sino ang greedy? si va na matagal na laging lugi kay mp o si mp na ayaw bumaba sa pedestal?

    2. Pride naman talaga yung problema nila kahit noon pa

      Delete
    3. mejo illogical ang argument mo.. magkaiba sila ng level ng stardom at fanbase so di pwedeng ganon.. kahit may pagkanega si S, mas matindi ang hatak nya sa tao..

      Delete
    4. So e di hindi tuloy ang project kung ganon. Bakit ba kelangan magcomparean sila ng TF talaga. lol. Nagpresyo si G, e di take it or leave it. Ano kinalaman nun sa TF ni MP.

      Delete
  13. G is greedy and he knows he is not as bankable as S. why not just settle for a bonus if or when the such movie hit the box office?

    1. Greedy na ba yung mag-ask ka ng tingin mo ay dapat lang sa'yo? He's famous now. Laman ng news at kilala ng mga regular audience. Yung idol mo ang ayaw padaig at ayaw bumaba sa pedestal.

      Delete
    2. There's nothing wrong with asking for what you think you're worth.

      I think sa TF na yan, kasama ang compensation niya sa sure na sakit ng ulo sa pagpapabebe ni S dyan.

      Delete
    3. Negotiating with how much you think your worth should not be called considered as greed. That’s so unfair. Kung ayaw nila sa presyo, mukang ok lang naman kay G. Kung magmamaktol si G at ipipilit niya tipong nagwawala pa siya e yun ang greed.

  17. It's a subtle way of saying na the guy is not really interested

  18. Pagbigyan yan ni S for the sake of her sinking career just to be relevant!

    1. She made her mark in the industry already. I don't think may kailangan pa siyang patunayan. Iyang si VA ang lumaki ang ulo. Di naman siya talaga big star eversince. Kumikita lang mga movies niya pag si S ang kasama. Subukan niyang mapareha sa iba, do you think kikita ng sobrang laki ang movie niya? 🤔

      Delete
    2. True 2;45 PM dami na nya movies since his return pero ni hindi mo maaalala mga title as in no recall at all. Ramdam lang sya ng madlang pipol pag si S kasama nya. Ilusyonado!🤮

    3. Kung laos na si S, mas lalong laos si G. Aba, akala ni G, sikat pa siya.Kikita lang ang mvoie nila kapag si S ang kasama. Good, na tumanggi si S.

  19. Kawawang mga KaF, SOUR GRAPING na lang ang peg, Hahahaha

  20. I don’t think G is greedy. In business, if you don’t want to do the work but was invited to pitch for it, you exaggerate the price. If they really like you, they will get you. It’s also the price not only for his talent fee but also all the negativities that he has to bear once he agreed with it. Hazard pay yun!!

  22. di ako interesado sa dalawa okey. Stop the talks na lang, lalo lang lalaki ang ulo niyan.

  23. People are so quick to judge that va is greedy, dati naman si mp ang may ayaw sa comeback movie nila, this was before the hit series of va. At the most, they should be equally paid because most people will watch their movie not because of mp or va alone. MP may have more achievements career wise but her reputation is not that welcoming while va has a more welcoming aura nowadays. Just my opinion.

  24. masyadong emo at pabebe si S kasi, baka pag pumayag si G sa movie eh puro hugot sa nakaraan si S, para makaiwas malang tinaasan na lang ni G ang presyo niya

    ReplyDelete
  25. Masisisi niyo na si G na he's asking for more pay to compensate for the stress he'll go through being with S again? Ever since pinagmukha siyang masama ni S. Pagod na si G na mabungkal yung past nila.

  27. Sad ako, Kasi kung mahal ni G ang fans, papayag sya kahit 1 lang. Hindi naman sya binabarat, pero wag naman yung mas malaki dapat, take it or leave it? Greed na yan
