Thanks Philander. The list of domestic box office of hits since 2006 shows a healthy competition between domestic and foreign films. 2008 showed 2 local films lording over such world hits as twilight, dark Knight and Ironman. 2006 saw Sukob over X-man The Last Stand
Assuming of course that the data is correct, while Hollywood films still dominate the list, local cinema is earning hundreds of millions on low budget melodramas like Ang Tanging Ina, Sukob, Caregiver and A very Special Love and lording it over high tech films like Ironman, Twilight, Dark Knight and X-men, it clearly proves that we can compete at the tills. We only need to tap better more daring stories in more films.
