This will be a short update. Star Cinema and Viva Films' Finally Found Someone  has reached PHP 100 million in four days. This is a strong number so far albeit lower than It Takes A Man and A Woman . Nevertheless, with the help of Sunday business (which is typically strong), the Sarah Geronimo-John Lloyd Cruz romantic comedy is bound to atleast hit PHP 135 million+ in five days which is still a big win not just for Finally Found  but also for Kita Kita  which is also still raking millions. A good week for the local box office industry. Source: Star Cinema

While surprise hit  Kita Kita is now on its way to PHP 100 million, another romantic movie is about to hit the theaters -  100 Tula Para Kay Stella  starring Bela Padilla and JC Santos. Directed by Jason Paul Laxamana ('The Third Party'), this romantic comedy has the capability to break out the way Kita Kita  did. Also, Bela Padilla and JC Santos (breakout star from the TV series 'Till I Met You') are much more popular than Alessandra De Rossi and Empoy Marquez. Can it replicate the success of Kita Kita ?

Beside the KathNiel, LizQuen, and AlDub, the Sarah Geronimo-John Lloyd Cruz tandem remains one of the strongest tandem in the box office. Their lastest offering Finally Found Someone proves this.

It's a busy week at the box office. Sci-fi epic Valerian and the City of the Thousand Planets  and Kita Kita  lead the box office.

Studios traditionally show footages/trailers of their upcoming films on the San Diego Comic Con and this year did not fail us. Here are the trailers for DC's Justice League, Marvel's Thor: Ragnarok , and more!

The Princess of Themyscira just showed how it should done. DC's Wonder Woman  has now passed PHP 520 million in the Philippines' box office as of July 1. That bests the final numbers of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice  which previously has the throne as the highest grossing WB film in the country.

After a steady opening day, Transformers: The Last Knight  collapsed on full week numbers continuing the franchise fatigue in the country ( Fast & Furious, Pirates, & Despicable Me ). The fifth-quel opened to PHP 165.9 million which is lower than Age of Extinction (PHP 240M+) and Dark of the Moon (PHP 209M).
