So finally, ABS-CBN ended what they started.
“There is no truth to the Web reports, particularly in the Perez Hilton blogsite, that ABS-CBN is doing a local adaptation of “Twilight”. ABS-CBN will be the first to announce if it is, in fact doing so,” according to ABS-CBN Corporate Communications’ Bong Osorio.

P.S
Read my other posts. tsss…
I should have screen capped ABS-CBN’s previous article…
So here’s an update regarding THE Pinoy Twilight slash “Takipsilim” post that I wrote few days ago…
I literally have read the article from ABS-CBN’s website. I would not write a post about “Takipsilim” if I am not sure about it. I believe it was official well… it WAS!
If you happen to click the link to the full article in my previous post… this is now what you are going to get:

What’s the matter with them?

I think they just “chickened-out”…LOL!:]]
As of now, I don’t know if “Takipsilim” is a HOAX or NOT.
For the enth time… LET’S JUST WAIT AND SEE…
After the Twilight movie craze, who would have thought that the Philippines would make a local version of Twilight?
Well… not me!
ABS-CBN already bought the copyright for a local re-make of the famous novel Twilight by Stephenie Meyer with a tentative title of “Takipsilim” staring Rayver Cruz as Edward Cullen and Shaina Magdayao as Isabella Swan. The series will be directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina.
Here’s the full article.
There are a lot of blogs I’ve read about THE “Pinoy Twilight” as they would call it and so here are some of my sentiments about it:
• The first thing that I said when I heard the fuzz is like… “What the f*ck?!” I mean, could somebody slap me? harharhar…
• I have seen some posters in the web… I don’t know if that is the official… Nevertheless, I took it negatively because it is SOOOOO COPYCAT… tsk tsk! Just look for the difference.. hahaha!

• I don’t know if how are they going to make the scenes possible knowing that everything in the book is very foreign as well as the descriptions and everything.
• The question IS… How are they going to make those sugar-coated punch lines in Filipino without making it sound so cheesy and all?
• This is not to criticize him but I think Rayver Cruz is NOT suitable to play the role of Edward. Unless they are going to do a major make-over. (I can’t think of anyone else.. tsk) For those who have read the book, you know what I mean.
• Shaina Magdayao is just “OK” to play the role of Bella.
• I am not satisfied with the movie, but I have trust with ABS-CBN in the production and all, I just wish they will not “edit” the story so much just to fit it to a Filipino setting
• I am not a fan; I just feel I am involved because I have read THE saga.
• I hate THE title. Grrr…
• Who will play the other vampires? or even the wolves? hmmmm… think think think (I bet stars from PBB will be in. harhar)
• Who will sing the OST? Where will Edward’s meadow be???
• Will all the negative comments from all sorts of people, I hope ABS-CBN will give justice to the book. PLEASE! (I know Cathy Garcia-Molina will do a great job with all her blockbuster movies done… :])
• I wish the visual effects will not be so animated that it will look “really” fake.
With all the re-makes… I don’t know what else to comment…
With all the negative comments and those anti-Pinoy Twilights…
Sign this petition or let’s just wait and see… :]]
Do we really have to have our own version of those foreign stuffs? hmmmm…
I still go for the ORIGINAL…
(i mean the book.. :])
