Aga Muhlach – In a recent conversation with him, we asked Aga what he would want most for Christmas.

“Napakabait sa akin ng Diyos. Sa aking pamilya. Every day na lang, ’di ko siya nakakalimutang pasalamatan.
“OA man itong ituring. Pero ang pinaka-utmost wish na puwede kong hilingin for Christmas ay for the much-talked about financial crisis sa buong mundo ay ’di gaanong makaapekto sa ating mga Pilipino. Lalo na sa ating mga taga-industriya. As it is, hirap na nga tayo.
“Sana, for the year, 2009, makabangon tayo. Lalo na ang industriyang mahal nating lahat.”
Told that in an interview with Angel Locsin, during the one-on-one interview with her after the presscon of Love Me Again, her first movie with Star Cinema with Piolo Pascual, Angel expressed excitement over the prospect of doing a project with him, ani Aga: “Tell her, the feeling is mutual.”
As it is, Star Cinema has already told Aga they want him na gumawa ng two movies in 2009.
LOVE ME AGAIN already reached 80 Million Pesos from January 15 to January 27 (13days screening with 75 cinemas nationwide, other cinemas from Mindanao will open this week particulary the affected areas of typhoon during its opening, which will surely add and help the total gross of the said movie. In addition, STAR CINEMA will announced its TOTAL GROSSED in THE BUZZ/ E-LIVE this week, Angel and Piolo also will be guesting in different shows of ABS-CBN to thank their nationwide fans who supported them.
The International screenings are excluded. Hopefully by the end of the week this movie will reached 100 Million Pesos, as most of us predicted. Again, Congratulations Angel and Piolo!
The Star Cinema movie Love Me Again (Land Down Under) starring Angel Locsin and Piolo Pascual has grossed P53.2 million on its 2nd week, similar to the 2-weeks gross of the GMA/Regal movie One True Love.
Last week, Love Me Again topped Philippine Box-Office by raking in P29.48 million beating Hollywood films debuting at the same period like Bride Wars, Changeling and the Haunting of Molly Hartley.
Love Me Again is at the same pace as the movie One True Love last year. The Marian Rivera-Dingdong Dantes movie also registered P53.2 Million on its 2nd week of screening.
For further comparison, let’s check the Hollywood movies that Love Me Again and One True Love have pitted during their screenings.
One True Love succumbed to the Hollywood monster hit movie Twilight which premiered on its second week of running. Twilight hit a whopping P84.6 million at the Philippine Box-Office on the weekend of Nov. 26-30, 2008, the same period One True Love is running on its second week. Quantum of Solace was also running at that time. Please take note that Twilight became the top-grossing Hollywood movie in the Philippines for the whole year of 2008 and the latest James Bond film was one of the Top 10.
Love Me Again, on the other hand, succumbed to another vampire movie Underworld: Rise of the Lycans. It was also pitted against Jim Carrey’s Yes Man, Adam Sandler’s Bedtime Stories and Brad Pitt’s The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. But the box-office gross of these films, even combined, cannot match the one-week gross of Twilight.
This analysis is for the sake of argument as the two romantic films One True Love and Love Me Again both hit the two-weeks gross P53.2 million using the conversion rate on the time these movies were shown.
Philippine Box Office (January 21 to 25, 2009)
1. Underworld: Rise of the Lycans - P19.58 M 2. Love Me Again - P11.71 M 3. Yes Man - P7.01 M 4. Bedtime Stories - P4.64 M 5. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - P4.11 M 6. Bride Wars - P3.15 M 7. Transporter 3 - P2.21 M 8. The Abandoned - P1.23 M 9. The Haunting of Molly Hartley - P1.19 M 10. Changeling - P0.27 M

JANUARY
Love Me Again (Love Down Under) Starring Angel Locsin and Piolo Pascual
FEBRUARY
You Changed My Life (A Very Special Love Part 2) Starring John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo
After the possibility of pairing KC Concepcion and Richard Gutierrez in a movie was realized, Star Cinema is now contemplating of putting together GMA’s Marian Rivera and their very own John Lloyd Cruz together in a movie.
Marian Rivera is a movie contract star of Regal Films and Mother Lily is open to the idea of working with Star Cinema, ABS-CBN’s film company, for a joint project in the condition that they will also produce a movie with Angel Locsin.
Last year, the camp of Mother Lily threatened Star Cinema not to do a movie with Angel Locsin until she finishes her film assignments with Regal Films. This was rooted from Angel’s transfer to the kapamilya station last year and it was reported that she’s still under exclusive movie contract with Regal at that time.
After Milan, Dubai, London and Greece, Star Cinema is now bringing the Filipinos to Australia in the upcoming movie starring “Lobo” partners Piolo Pascual and Angel Locsin.
The shooting of the Angel-Piolo movie is about to begin tomorrow at Pasugong and Malaybalay, Bukidnon and will last for 28 days. After Bukidnon, the cast and crew will fly to Darwin, Australia to shoot the rest of the movie for the same number of days.
The director of the said movie is Rory Quintos.
Piolo and Angel have been training in horseback-riding under the guidance of couturier Vic Barba and Mikee Cojuangco in preparation for their roles as cowboy/cowgirl.
Land Down Under is scheduled to hit the theaters on Nov. 12, 2008 as the last movie in line with the studio’s 15-year anniversary.
Angel Locsin talks about "Land Down Under" Locsin took a short break after her television hit series "Lobo". She has started lessons in horseback riding in preparation for her upcoming film under Star Cinema entitled “Land Down Under” with Piolo Pascual.
"Super excited kami... challenge lahat maski yung behind the scenes. Kasi sa Bukidnon kayo mag-stay walang glamorous lifestlye doon. Pati sa Australia magte-tent lang kami or sleeping bags kasama namin yung mga insects ganoon," she said.
Locsin that she is ready to take all the risks while filming the movie.
"Actually excited ako dagdag kwento ko din yon pero huwag naman sana," she said.
Last Friday, August 29, Locsin and Pascual started to shoot the film at Pasugong and Malaybalay in Bukidnon.
They will be there for 28 days before they fly to Darwin, Australia to shoot the rest of the film and will be there for almost four weeks.
"Land Down Under" is another offering of Star Cinema for their 15th anniversary. The movie is directed by Rory Quintos and is set to hit the theaters on November 12, 2008.
Piolo Pascual talks about 'Land Down Under' Popular actor Piolo Pascual shared his excitement for his upcoming movie project with actress Angel Locsin entitled “Land Down Under.”
“Iba iyong pressure, iba iyong ‘Lobo’. But for a movie it’s a different challenge definitely all together,” Pascual told abs-cbnNEWS.com.
The actor said that aside from doing a first movie with Locsin, it’s also his first time to work with movie director Rory Quintos.
Pascual said that he and Locsin will be shooting in Bukidnon and in Darwin, Australia for their cowboy/cowgirl scenes.
“I’m looking forward to it, at first time ko po itong Bukidnon and we'll be filming in Australia as well. So it’s definitely a welcome challenge,” he said.
“I always look forward to the movies that I do, because iba lagi ang approach. And with ‘direk’ Rory you can be sure na it’s a nice movie na hindi pababayaan, after all her critically acclaimed movies."
Pascual shared that as preparations for his role in the movie, he and Locsin are now training for horseback-riding under Vic Barba and actress-equestrienne Mikee Cojuangco.
Pascual and Locsin do their trainings at Manila Polo Club.
They will also do some of the popular sports in Bukidonl.
“Marami, all the sports they do in Bukidnon iyong how they pin down iyong bull or how they race with the horses. It’s gonna be pretty physical,” Pascual said.
The actor admitted he had some misgivings in portraying the role of cowboy, since he has to act as if he is really experienced and trained to be one.
“With the trainings that we’ve had for more than a month so far po ay nagugustuhan ko naman iyong pagho-horsebackriding. I never thought that I was really gonna enjoy, masakit at first,” he said.
Pascual shared that for the first day of his horseback riding training he got blisters since he didn’t know how to ride. But as time went by he got the hang of it.
“It's something that I enjoyed doing and I feel good knowing na hindi siya mahirap na trabaho kasi na-e-enjoy ko siya,” he said.
To ensure the safety of Pascual and Locsin the ABS-CBN management got them insured while doing the movie.
Piolo Pascual is a member of ABS-CBN's Star Magic. He is preparing for his out of the country shows with other stars like John Lloyd Cruz.
He also has a coffee table book entitled "Piolo: Believing" that showcases his career highlights.
