Jonan23 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Because of the local film festival in Christmas every year. Some of the big pre Christmas blockbusters opt to just open in January. I actually think that is a better strategy than opening before Christmas for a week and then disappearing for 2 weeks. The buzz is gone when you return.

Jonan23 Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 I am interested in seeing Family Matters and actually think it may surprise and be number 2. Sadly I think the Philippines is one of the worst countries for box office enthusiasts for us. No site with a weekly top ten. Sometimes we need to wait until the studio announces the total gross. Numbers for flops hard to find. And even the MMFF remember a few years ago they made a new rule not to announce the box office gross so as to not create a bandwagon effect for the poor performers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a simple stats that box office of MMFF 2021 > MMFF 2020 Also, last year, there wasn't any interesting film to watch. Filipino was more interested in NWH, whose delay end up boycotting the entire Festival with empty theatres 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted December 25, 2022 Author Share Posted December 25, 2022 The MMFF isn't there to really elevate the quality of Philippine cinema. They just capitalize on the holidays to earn money. I challenge them to have the festival in March or August. The box office results will be very different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I am not talking about the content/propaganda but people did showed up despite the negative reviews and ofc the election scam There's more to it than meets the eye. I do not believe the money it made was actually from the people's pockets. Life was so hard that time, people would not prioritize a movie over food on the table. Politics was involved. Free tickets were distributed. I thought cinemas were paid whether there were audiences or not. This was explained by the fact that the movie stayed in theaters even though no one was watching. If that was the case for a usual Hollywood movie, it would be pulled out from cinemas for not making money.

Jonan23 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Pre Covid Star Cinema would have a lot of mainstream rom com hits anytime in the year. They debate a lot about whether cinemas are dead in the main forum because of Covid and streaming. So far it feels really true here in the Philippines. If this years MMFF earns money I will be happy. That may also help future releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not ideal for a family to spend on movies anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
