Unitel DVDs are good... i think. Havent seen one really but they look good. Will probably buy, Magnifico. And i saw some Lino Brocka and Ishmael Bernal Viva Platinum Series DVDs out in the market, that looks promising. Any reviews?

mayroon akong "Dekada 70" on DVD at malinaw talaga siya. Medyo konti nga lang ang special features.

Maricel Soriano fan ako kaya mayroon din akong "Dahas". para sa akin, worth collecting dahil baka hindi na ito mahahagilap paglipas ng ilang taon. Sayang naman.

Sigurado akong marami pang magagandang Tagalog DVDs diyan.

Palagi kong nakikita ito ah. Punta ka sa paborito kong Astroplus Podium.

Ever since my visit to the 2nd Cinemalaya. I've bought worthy Filipino films on DVD. Even the ones that may not be so good, but since it's a part of Filipino culture, i've bought them. Every single film ive enjoyed, even if some may not agree.

Viva DVDs are probably the most accessible and affordable, some even selling for as low as 150pesos. I bought Babae sa Breakwater for 150pesos.

I've always wanted to buy some Star Cinema offerings such as Nasaan Ka Man, however, at 600pesos. hmm.

Does these titles slash their prices during the 3 day sales? I dont know if they want to display these titles or sell 'em.

Meron akong "DAHAS" (Maricel Soriano) DVD, and I must say, they gave the movie a good treatment in terms of its special feature. Meron itong TRAILER and DIRECTORS COMMENTARY (by Chito Rono)

Meron din akong "SAAN DARATING ANG UMAGA" DVD (Part siya ng Viva Platinum Series). Ok naman siya. Kaso it is on two separate discs. One for the main movie and yung isa naman ay para sa mga special features.
