ni GLEN P. SIBONGA MAGIGING mas exciting, kapana-panabik at kakilig-kilig ang " MAKA: Next Chapter " dahil makakasama na sa cast nito ang pinakabagong mga heartthrob ng Sparkle na sina Anton Vinzon at Raheel Bhyria ng “Mga Batang Riles,” at "Sparkle Campus Cutie" winner na si Mad Ramos .   Bilang “The B-Boys,” silang tatlo ang maghahatid ng bagong dynamics at maraming kilig sa kinagigiliwang MAKA barkada.   Gaganap si Anton Vinzon bilang Anton Mendoza, isang confident at charismatic na Grade 12 transfer student sa MAKA Academy. Bilang pinuno ng "The B-Boys" basketball trio, isang star athlete at online sensation si Anton na sanay sa spotlight. Pero sa ilalim ng kanyang perpektong ngiti at swag, hangad ni Anton ang isang kumpletong tahanan.   Si Raheel Bhyria naman ay si Raheel Perez. Siya ang madiskarteng mag-isip sa "The B-Boys." Isa siyang basketball whiz na may lihim na hilig sa science fiction, coding, at mga numero. Sa pamamagitan ng baske...

ni GLEN P. SIBONGA NAG-ENJOY ako sa panonood ng award-winning movie na " Song of the Fireflies " sa special screening nito na ginanap sa Gateway Cineplex Cinema 16 noong June 23. Masasabi kong sumakses ang pelikula sa maganda nitong pa-tribute sa Loboc Children's Choir at sa founder nito na si Alma Taldo . Ang "Song of the Fireflies" ay tungkol sa naging journey ng Loboc Children's Choir, na binubuo ng mga estudyante edad 9 hanggang 13 sa Loboc, Bohol, mula noong 1980s kung saan sumabak sila sa mga lokal na patimpalak hanggang sa umabot sa national level, na naging daan upang lumaban din sila sa international contests. Kasama nila sa tagumpay ang kanilang guro at trainor na si Ma'am Alma. Sinuportahan sila ng isang cultural advocate sa Bohol na si Equet Butalid . Napakaganda ng pelikula kaya naman hindi nakapagtatakang nauna na itong sumakses sa ibang bansa kung saan ito unang ipinalabas. Humakot ito ng mga parangal sa 2025 Manila International Film Fe...
