I seldom watch (or is it hardly? barely?) tagalog films on the big screen. So by extension, why buy tagalog DVDs?
I share in the sentiments of most of you in this forum. No amount of gimmickry or care can produce an excellent pinoy DVD if the theatrical release is lousy to begin with.
But I have never lost hope that pinoys can be at par, maybe not with hollywood, but with Asian movie makers like the Japs, the CHinese and the Indians. Top of my mind, I can think of Oro Plata Mata, Rizal, American Adobo, Scorpio Nights (the first one), Moral, Insiang, to mention some. Now if only these films can be digitally remastered and processed/cleaned like what they did with those old hollowood films like Casablanca, On the Waterfront, Ben-Hur, etc., and then priced at P450, with additional commentary's and making of featurette, why not? But maybe I'm asking too much.
