Few days from now we will be hitting Yuletide season, and that as well will be the season of Metro Manila Film Festival. As for me it is a battle of  three giant networks in our country today. As TV5 is making its way to conquer the mainland. Looking forward to it!

For the meantime here's GMA's Panday 2 teaser. A typical Filipino movie, a bit cartoony. 

Maguindanao 'sex strike' puts clan war to bed

Women in a Maguindanao village successfully held a “sex strike," putting an end to the “rido" or clan feuds in their area.

According to a Monday report on GMA News TV’s “State of the Nation" and “Saksi," wives in the village of Dado in Maguindanao took it upon themselves to put an end to the warring in their village by threatening to withhold sex if their husbands went on with their warring.

“Sige, punta ka diyan. Ikaw bahala, hindi ka makakauwi sa bahay, hindi kita tatanggapin," said Hasna Kandatu, a resident of the village.

A week after they first dangled the threat of a “sex strike" or “tigil pagtatalik," peace started to reign in the village—the farm to market road reopened, putting an end to the village’s dependence on rations.

The idea came from a group of women engaged in a sewing business; because of the constant feuding, they would be unable to transport their products along the village road.

 There you have it ladies and gents! Melai got another bang. Her movie is set to be released as soon as possible. There have been intrigues that "the Adventure of Pureza, Queen of the Riles"( Abs-CBN) will having a huge showdown in theaters with the soon to be seen "Temptation Island" (GMA). This is going to be a run for their money- fame and fortune is bound to take its path in a serious mode .

Who will be the box office hit movie of this year?

The Temptation Island it has been prepared a year before its launching this season. Aside from that there have been intrigues, about the casts who had rifts. Rumors is always rumors, but this is real. Marian is just another littbarn who screams every time her movie is coming out. She's set to make controversy to promote her movie and of course gain lotsa bucks out of it.

I find it awesome how this lass from Casiguran Aurora remained humble on things she have achieved this days.  Athena Imperial will be representing our country in Miss Earth 2011.
