[Title] => Kubrador and a few hardy A’s
[Summary] => MLR Films’ Kubrador got an A grade from the Cinema Evaluation Board, the first for the year 2006. It is the ninth film to get a 100 percent tax rebate since the CEB-reconstituted from the old Film Ratings Board – started grading local films in early 2003.
Others that got this rare nod were Noon at Ngayon and Crying Ladies in 2003; Santa Santita and Panaghoy sa Suba in 2004; La Visa Loca, Pagdadalaga ni Maximo Oliveros, Bigtime and Mulawin in 2005.

[Title] => Pinoy flicks now not just for ‘bakya’ crowd
[Summary] =>
The bakya crowd may be a thing of the past as most moviegoers who watch Filipino films have at least finished high school, a survey of local moviegoing habits conducted by the Social Weather Stations (SWS) has indicated.
The survey, conducted last June and commissioned by the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP), however found that most fans who watch in moviehouses come from the Class D (67 percent), with the bulk coming from National Capital Region and balance Luzon (57 percent).

[Title] => The birth of the Cinema Evaluation Board (CEB)
[Summary] => Up to the time the Film Ratings Board (FRB) was abolished (it breathed its last in early 2002), most people still got its function mixed up with that of the Movie & Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB). The MTRCB, let me say once more, determines audience suitability – if a film is R-18 (for adults only), PG 13, general patronage or X.

[Title] => My wish list for Year 2002
[Summary] => It’s the first day of the year and I’d like to make a wish list not only for myself, but for the local entertainment industry and its people as well. Below is my wish list for the year 2002.
• Safety for Lipa City mayor Vilma Santos and family. In this country, when you do what is good and what is right, you make enemies. Vilma has proven to be a good mayor to her constituents in Lipa. But look at the trouble it brought her. Here’s wishing she’d finally lick all the bad elements in this otherwise beautiful and peaceful city in Batangas.

[Title] => Diet dares to bare
[Summary] => The sex symbol look is written all over him like some neon sign proclaiming to the whole world that this hunk is ready to tickle your wildest imagination like never before. You can’t help but wonder what happened to that innocent-looking matinee idol who teamed up with just-as-sweet leading ladies years back.
But make no mistake about it. Diether Ocampo has those broad shoulders, heaving chest, smoldering eyes and muscles that can make any red-blooded female swoon. And Star Cinema is wasting no time capitalizing on these.

[Title] => So what’s the difference between the MTRCB and the FRB?
[Summary] => Up to now, a lot of people still can’t make the distinction between the Movie & Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) and the Film Ratings Board (FRB). For those who are still confused with regard to the functions of these two agencies, here’s a brief explanation. The MTRCB was set up by the government to determine the audience suitability of films (both local and foreign) that are going to be shown in the country. Their classifications are as follows: X, R (for adults only), PG-13 and GP or general patronage.

[Title] => A melodrama that tugs at the heartstrings - STAR BYTES by Butch Francisco
[Summary] => Abandonada was the title of the Regal movie that exploited the personal woes of Alma Moreno after she was dumped by Dolphy for Zsa Zsa Padilla some 11 years ago. The soon-to-be-shown Abandonada by Viva Films is also exploitative – but in a different way. It exploits the viewers’ emotions – especially those who are suckers for heavy melodramas.
