Watch Me Entertain Myself!

Sacha Guitry once said, "You can pretend to be serious, but you can't pretend to be witty." Oh yes, I'm the great pretender.

Kailangan Pa Bang I-Memorize Yan?

As with most Star Cinema movies, they try to come up with a line that they hope will become one of the more memorable movie lines, like:

Vilma Santos and Carlo Aquino in a shouting match in Bata, Bata, Paano Ka Ginawa?:
Vilma: “Wala akong ginawang masama!”
Carlo: “Akala mo lang wala! Pero meron, meron, meron!”
(Vilma slaps Carlo)

Jolina Magdangal tearfully tells Marvin Agustin, her childhood friend and long-time unrequited love, in Labs Kita… Okey Ka Lang?:
“Oo! Kaibigan mo ako! Kaibigan mo lang ako!”

Judy Ann Santos to a comatose Leandro Munoz in Kahit Isang Saglit:
“Mahal kita hindi dahil yun ang tama, kundi dahil yun ang totoo....”

Sharon Cuneta to Christopher de Leon in Madrasta:
“You’re absolutely right. I’m not your partner. I’m just your wife!”

* * * * *

In You Got Me!, Sam Milby tearfully tells an unbelieving Toni Gonzaga:
“Mahal na mahal kita. Kahit yun lang, paniwalaan mo ako.”

Toni then turns to Sam and just as tearfully retorts:
“Minsan Kevin, kapos pa rin ang ‘mahal kita’ lang.” Tapos walk off ang bakla.

Well, what do you think? Memorable or not memorable? Deal or no deal?

Hoy NELSON! Wag mong sabihin na hindi mo naabutan ang mga itetchiwariwap, dahil naabutan mo! Hindi mo lang pinanood ang mga itetchiwariwap dahil bakya mo neneng ang mga ito, ahahahahaha!

Sa "Bata, Bata" super bagets pa si Carlo Aquino, wala pa yata siyang bulbol. N'ung pinalabas yung pelikula ni Jolina't Marvin, buhay pa si Rico Yan. Same with Juday's movie; ang leading man niya talaga sa movie na yun ay si Papa Piolo.

At bakit napanood ko ang lahat ng mga ito? I worked for ABS, remember? Lahat ng yun, pinalabas at one time or another sa TV, and I had to watch them so that I can make the TV plug for them. (Palusot daw o! AHAHAHAHAHA!)

Aaah, kasi di po ako nanonood ng TV nun (although I do remember "Bata-Bata"), and I couldn't care less about Jolina et al. Although I have to admit I have a strange fascination for Sharon Cuneta....
