‘My Valentine Girls’ Hits P135M in Just 3 Days?

Is it fact or fiction?

According to a report by Ric Camaligan of the National Cinema Association of the Philippines via PEP’s Scoopbox, “My Valentine Girls” registered an ALL-TIME BIGGEST 3 DAY GROSS for a local or even a Hollywood film shown in the country. The Richard Gutierrez-starrer reportedly raked in an estimate of P135 million in just 3 days!

Straight from the horse’s mouth:

“It has been a record-breaking 2011 start for GMA Films and Regal Entertainment. My Valentinte Girls’s total gross for the 1st 3 days reached an all-time high of P135 million – the biggest 3 day gross for a Tagalog/Foreign film, breaking all box office records.”

Mother Lily Monteverde of Regal Films said:

“Napakahirap na ng buhay ngayon, kaya for a movie to make over P135 million in 3 days is a miracle. Divine intervention ito.”

P135 million in just 3 days is indeed a miracle, not to mention that it’s not Valentine’s Day yet. And it’s not even weekend yet which means by 1 week we can expect the movie to reach the elusive P200 million mark.

That is, if the report is accurate.

Based from our compilation of box office reports using the figures from third party tabulator, Box Office Mojo, the only Pinoy movie to surpass the P200 million mark (since the tally came to existence) was “You Changed My Life” starring John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo. I myself was a witness of how long the lines were at that time.

Last Friday night, I watched 127 Hours in Glorietta. The 7 cinemas have 7 different movies being screened (just one for My Valentine Girls) unlike in the time when “You Changed My Life” was screening and the same mall opted to use 3 of its theaters to run the Sarah-John Lloyd movie to accommodate the demand of moviegoers. Last Friday, I have not seen any line at all!

But of course, that’s just one cinema over more than a hundred across the country so I can’t base my judgment by that alone. Perhaps the film received long lines of moviegoers in other cinemas that I am not aware of.

What do you think?

  1. KakatawA talaga. Yung Italy daw na movie sabi Nila blockbuster, and ng lumabas ang totoo, di pa inabot yung ginastos. Kanguso talaga sanay sa panlilinlang. Lahat na ginagapang Nila, instead na galingan Nila. Agb, tns, mtrcb, at ngayon pati nca. Hay magbago na kasi. Naniniwala ako sa karma, ayan tuloy nasisira Lang sila lalo. Lumaban ng patas at Hindi pandaraya.kahit anong gawin mong pandaraya, lalabas at lalabas din ang totoo.And di ba nagsisimba man Lang yang mga yan para magsinungaling ng ganito kalaki? Ganid nga naman!

    yung love ko si mister at love ko si misis,,

    kumikit daw ng 500 million every week,,

    ~.~

    how stupid..

  10. I’m not a kapamilya nor kapuso but this movie is impossible to gross 135 million on its first three days. I already watched that movie yesterday at Trinoma and sad to say,only a half of people filled the cinema. I watched YOU CHANGE MY LIFE LAST 2009 and i will never forget what i experienced on that movie, because it took me 1 1/2 hours waiting before finally going inside the theater….Take note, I watched it on the same theater like my valentine girls..AND I HEARD THAT THE THREE CINEMAS WHERE YOU CHANGED MY LIFE WAS SHOWN ARE ALL FILLED WITH MANY PEOPLE AND SOME ARE EVEN STANDING TO WATCHING THAT MOVIE…I always watch valentine filipino movies every year and for me LET THE LOVE BEGIN, THE PROMISE AND MY BFGF ARE ONLY VALENTINE FILMS OF RICHARD THAT I BELIEVE ARE ALL BOX OFFICE HITS…MY VALENTINE GIRLS didn’t even rang a bell to the moviegoers to watch it..

  11. WALANG HIMALA!!!!!!!!!!!

  12. Didto s CEBU there are small number of moviegoers for richrd guiterrez muve one of that are mga yaya

  13. thats impossible! yon lang…..

  14. the fact is hindi totoo ang 135 kinita for 3 days of showing. the fact is press release lang ito na walang katotohanan. nadaig pa yata ang kita ng manila film festival movies. pakonsuelo lang ito para sa mga producers na luging lugi na!

  15. bt inierase ng starmo ang post ko s link n 3 million lang ang my valentine girl s first day nay… at d umber ng 135 million!!!http://www.stir.ph/LM/search/w-my_valentine_girl/ai-null/my_valentine_girl.html

  16. i don’t think it hit that mark. here in iligan, it has not been shown. nowhere to be found. i would say that it is just publicity. maybe persons behind those are really desperate. and to think of it, it is alongside with other foreign movies. what are they thinking about us Filipinos? without sense? o common..

  36. Kay WALALANG no offend ha ilang sinehan ba ang ipinakita nang news ng GMA seven… According sa nakita ko yong sa opening lang naman young ipinakita, syempre may artista kaya maraming tao… ikaw ba naman. pero kong totoo congrats to us, pero ayang ko nang kasinungalingan, according to my calculations, may mali sa data, dapat maraming cinemas ang i-accomodate mo before mo makuha ang ganon kalaking halaga. Pero para malaman nyo ang katotohanan, punta na lang kayo ng mga cinehan, ako doubt masyado, kac sa visayas at mindanao na sinehan medyo wla eh.. palagi kasi me travel all over philippines.. Ingat. Maging totoo lang sana tayo.. Happy Valentines to all

    sa mga KAPUSONG na BORING SA HAPPY YIPPEE YEHEY…my question is… bakit kyo nanood? kala ko ba solid EB kyo?? kung nagiisip lang kayo, ndi nyo ba alam na nakatulong pa nga ang ginawa nyo para sa ratings nila.

    LOUSY? BORING ANG HYY? really? kung lousy ang energy nila..mas kamusta naman ang EB?? marunong kb maghusga?

    BADUY ANG TITLE NG HYY? it may sound one today kasi pilot pa lang..e ang EAT BULAGA..nung mag umpisa yan boring din pakinggan eh. maganda lang sa pandinig nyo ngayon kasi un na ang nadatnan ninyong palabas..

    EB @ 30+yrs.. yeas its true..hindi ko naman kinakaila yan..pero alam nyo ba nung nalaunch yan sa RPN9, ndi po yan patok or hindi pa pumapatok, dhil ang sikat na sikat noon ay “STUDENT CANTEEN” most oldies knows this program. sumikat ang EB nung lumipat sila sa ABSCBN..palibhasa ay sikat na ang abscbn noon pa man..and due to high ratings the program enjoys nung nasa ch.2 pa, abscbbn decided to offer the block time or to buy the airtime ng EAT BULAGA which then was CO-PRODUCED by ABSCBN..

    mga KAPUSO, do we understand what CO-PRODUCED MEANS?? sna naman naiintindihan nyo un. EB mgmt declined the offer, thats why the mgmt of ABSCBN decided to launch their own and produce noontime show and that was history
    – ‘SANG LINGGO NAPO SILA,
    – MAGANDA/MASAYANG TANGHALI BAYAN (MTB),
    – WOWOWEE
    – Pilipinas: WIN NA WIN and now
    – HAPPY YIPEE YEHEY

    *JUAN FOR ALL, ALL FOR ONE
    -its not true that abscbn always copy gma or other local network, if that is true, bilangin nalang ninyo ang kinopya ng ibang network sa ABSCBN

    -BARANGGAY APO
    -ito po ang concept (1995) sang linggo napo sila)na nagpapanalo laban sa eat bulaga..kung anong konsepto meron ang eat bulaga ganun din ang baranggay apo kung saan si EAGLE RIGGS ang nasa field at nagpupunta sa mga baranggay at bahay hinahanap kung ano man ang iaanounce sa studio na dapat meron ang homeowner or isabit sa ganita or wat.. matagal na ito, pero na revive ng eat bulaga sa pangalang JUAN FOR ALL, ALL FOR JUAN, kaya ung mga ipinanganak from 1990′s to date..hindi na nila alam un kasi eat bulaga or mtb na ang alam nila..

    ABSCBN:
    – MAGANDANG UMAGA PO (KORINA S. 1986-1996)
    – ALAS SINGKO Y MEDIA (birth of morning show)- 1996 – 2002
    – MAGANDANG UMAGA BAYAN/ PILIPINAS (2002-2007)
    – UMAGANG KAY GANDA (2007 – PRESENT)

    GMA NETWORK:
    – MORNINGS @ GMA (1998 – 1999)
    – 1999-PRESENT)

    TV5:
    – SAPUL SA SINGKO 2010-PRESENT

    HETO ANG MGA NOONTIME SHOWS:

    ABSCBN
    – STUDENT CANTEEN (1858 – 1972) (kasama sina tito vic & joey dito..mga co-host or extra plang noon)
    – EAT BULAGA (1989-1995) moved to gma
    – SANG LINGGO NAPO SILA (1995-1998) as replace while abscbn is cooking for a noontime show
    – MTB (MAGANDANG/MASAYANG TANGHALI BAYAN) 1998-2005
    – WOWOWEE (2005-2010)
    – PILIPINAS WIN NA WIN (2010)
    – HAPPY YIPEE YEHEY (2011-PRESENT)
    Note; Sangle lingo napo sila was able to beat eat bulaga on ratings game specially when they launch BARANGGAY APO..similar format of ALL FOR ONE, JUAN FOR ALL of EB today. MTB was able to beat eat bulaga and of course of WOWOWEE where it received international audiences..but in between these years or monthe..of course a see-saw battle on ratings game was present. So that would mean that EAT BULAGA cannot claim that they are NUMBER 1 from 1995-present. which is only 16 YEARS only (see-saw battle).
    RPN 9
    – STUDENT CANTEEN (1972-1975)
    – EAT BULAGA (1979-1989 MOVED TO ABSCBN)
    – Student Canteen (1989-1990)
    – Family Kuarta o Kahon (1969-1975), (1984-1999)
    – Chibugan Na! (1994-1996)
    GMA 7
    – STUDENT CANTEEN (1975-1986)
    – LUNCH DATE (1986-1993) loses to EB on ABSCBN
    – SST – SALU-SALO TOGETHER (1993 ended in 1995 to give way to EAT BULAGA from ABSCBN)
    – EAT BULAGA (1995 – PRESENT)
    -kung papansinin nyo , 7years lang ang pagitan ng student canteen at eat bulaga..so far wala pa pumapalit sa EB sa kasi so far ratings is okay and they have still contract. Kaya ndi pa sila nakakagawa ng noontime show nila..as compared to abscbn and also to add not..during SST and Lunch Date times… hindi sila umubra sa mga counterpart o katapat na programa sa ABSCBN

    Kaya wag magsaya ang GMA kasi ndi sa kanila ang eat bulaga..kumbaga nagrerent lang sila ng airtime..eh ang tanong kamusta naman kaya once umalis ang EB sa GMA? Sigurado aligaga sila..dahil for the longest time ay hindi sila naglakas loob na gumawa ng sarili nilang noontime show.. at during noontime nila ng LUNCHDATE kasama dun si willie revillame.. gumanda lang estado nila sa WOWOWEE)

    >>ang kagandahan lang kasi sa gma kahit ndi nagrerate..tinutuloy ang ibang palabas specially pag alam nilang wala na ung sa abscbn for others to see na sila ang LONGEST RUNNING eklat eklat..
