Veteran journalist Jay Sonza couldn’t understand why some filmmakers were trying to use Director Darryl Yap’s name to promote their own movies.
It can be recalled that veteran filmmaker Joel Lamangan and Yap exchanged heated messages against each other while promoting their own martial law films.
Lamangan claimed that Yap was trying to compete with his movie, while the latter urged the legendary director to stop lying to the people.
Sonza gave his thoughts on the said issue, saying that they should stop using the project of others to promote their own.
“Why can’t they promote their own movies by telling people how good their movie is? Why can’t they tell the audience how great their thespians are in the projection of their assigned characters? Bakit kailangan sakyan nila ang tagumpay ng ibang pelikula? Ano? Para mapag-usapan sila, pero nilalangaw pa rin iyong kanilang pelikula sa takilya!” Sonza said.
Netizens also gave their comments on the said issue.
“Dilaw n dilaw. That was how Liberal Party was promoted. Ang pundasyon nilang base s paninira ng katunggali nila. S puntong kahit ibang mga dispensable nilang mga miyembro ay isakripisyo nila para sa sarili nilang kapakanan… e.g. Plaza Miranda bombing. Magtataka p b tayo. Masyadong mapanira yang mga yan. Self centered at self righteous. Sila lang ang may karapatan. Pag ayaw mo s kanila, CANCELLED ka,” netizen Chester commented.
“Kailangan siraan pa ung iba para sumikat..Ang nangyayari tuloy lalo cla lumulubog….Ugali na hindi na nila binago..Patay na ang original na magaling manira..Gusto pa yata na sumunod sa amo na magaling lng manira ng kapwa.” netizen Boyet remarked.
