Takipsilim: Twilight filipino version

i agree! im a big fan of twilight saga and just like you, i also feel bad about it. i don't know if it's true. if ever it is, i think it won't make a big hit in the philippines. besides, the actors and and actresses in takipsilim cannot be compared in the original twilight movie actors/actresses.

They're milking the cow which can't provide milk. Twilight is not even familiar with the bakya masses. Some people who have read the book said that the movie sucks so what more if it will be done in Filipino version? Guaranteed to suck. Even Lobo was a rip off from the movie "Blood and Chocolate" and it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Sure it made money and was successful but that's what the producers care about. They don't care about risking money for the sake of originality.

this is no longer funny. cant they make new ideas. are they already contented in copying things thats already existing. that's the reason why i hate watching dramas shown in the local television networks.

ABS-CBN definitely killed this issue. Maybe it will take a while before they are going to "release" the takipsilim thing. Anyways, the reaction of twilighters and some bloggers definitely scared them.

I was actually shocked when i first saw this video yesterday about Takipsilim in YouTube. Also, this news is posted in perezhilton.com! 0_o I also noticed the furious reactions of Twilighters as i've scanned through the comments there. Personally, I don't thinks it's a good idea. They might as well save a million dollars, find a nice book, and make that into a movie. Fortunately, I learned afterwards in the ABS-CBN website (and also aired in TV Patrol) that it was just a hoax.

Hi There! Yes, same here. I really don’t like the idea of putting a Filipino version of Twilight… I don’t think it will be a good idea.. I mean, why can’t they just create a unique story or soap opera for the Filipino viewers to watch… it is like more of imitating it…. Argghhh…. Happy Mylotting and Merry Christmas! Cheers!

Oh no! Here we go again. Do we really have to do that? Come on. This is just one of the dumbest idea we've ever thought of.

This is actually the first time I have heard of this and all I've got to say is that: could ABS-CBN get any lamer? I don't understand the need to make Filipino adaptations of any and all foreign soaps, movies, etc. that sell well. I mean, is there really a lack of creative talent in the Philippines right now that we have to resort to, well, this? Filipino adaptations of Asianovelas/telenovelas, I can handle but somehow, having a Filipino adaptation of Twilight just doesn't sit well with me, for some reason. The next thing we'd know, they'd be trying to obtain rights to produce a Filipino version of the Harry Potter series! (Though it would be a laugh, seeing them Filipinize, I don't know, King's Cross Station, for one.*lolMRT/LRT?lol*) On the whole, yeah... This move is all sorts of lame. I'm not watching this series when it does air.

All I can say is... hahaha! This is going to be interesting! I mean, there is definitely a twilight hype these days but then how can they sustain it when there will come a time that the hype will have dwindling interests. Hehe! http://perezhilton.com/2008-12-23-filipino-version-of-twilight-to-begin-production-soon

i'm sick of foreign versions translated to tagalog. Please, i know filipinos are creative,, abs are copy cat!
