MMFF Movies Official First Day Gross

As I said, the nine entries of the ongoing Metro Filmfest (until
Jan. 7, 2007) are ranked in many different ways, depending on who
you're asking.

Yesterday, Funfare published the opening-day ranking furnished by
the bookers' group, without the figures.

Here now is the ranking when the Metro Filmfest opened on Dec. 25,
with the corresponding grosses:

1. Enteng Kabisote, P21.4-M

2. Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo, P12.9-M

3. Shake, Rattle & Roll 8, P9.9-M

4. Matakot Ka sa Karma, P5-M

5. Super Noypi, P4.76-M

6. Zsa Zsa Zaturnnah Zee Moveeh, P2.9-M

7. Mano Po 5: Gua Ai Di, P1.9-M

8. Ligalig, P1.5-M

9. Tatlong Baraha, P1.3-M

The ranking stays the same on the second day (Dec. 26).

However, Mano Po 5 has been picking up now that enough prints have
arrived., On opening day, the Regal entry had a limited number of
prints, thus depriving moviegoers a chance to watch it. But they can
always catch up.

I'm inviting Funfare readers to watch all the entries and help prop
up the local movie industry which is only now getting back on its
feet after a lingering slump. I assure you that all nine entries are
worth your while and your money.
