LIST OF WINNERS FOR THE 34th PMPC AWARDS FOR MOVIES

The 34th PMPC awards for movies was held Sunday night February 18th at the Newport Performing Arts Theatre- Resorts World Manila.

Just asking...

For a newcomer, Pia Wurtzbach was good in  "Gandarapiddo: The Revenger Squad" but was it worth enough to merit an award? I'm sure even Pia herself is surprised with her sudden acting award.   

How about Harlene Bautista winning the Darling of the Press award?  She's been inactive in showbiz and hardly seen in showbiz events and for one, she certainly doesn't look like the darling of the press.  Was she was a sponsor of the show?  Out of the blue an entrepreneur (Raymond Francisco) just won a best actor award, 'never heard about his film until he won. 

Should the merits be classified whether it's an indie or mainstream?  Take a look...there's the indie sound engineer of the year award and the same award is given to a mainstream movie.  Which is which?   The winner of the Movie of the year is "Kita Kita" which was produced by Spring Films, an independent production outfit but PMPC classified it as mainstream. But what really makes an indie or a mainstream movie?  Let's just wait for credible award giving bodies like URIAN and Young Critics Circle.  The Eddy's is way better and  credible than PMPC.

Whatever....here is the complete list of 2018 PMPC awards for movies
