December 22 , 2017 - January 7 , 2018 Jan . 22-Feb . 7 , 2015
Comedian Vice Ganda could not be any happier he ’ s back on the Metro Manila Film Festival scene after failing to have an entry in last year ’ s season .
He joins forces with Daniel Padilla and Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach in “ Gandarappido : The Revenger Squad ” by director Joyce Bernal .
“ Of course na-miss , tsaka na-sad kami last year na ‘ di kami kasali . Tapos ‘ yung fans na rin ng Vice Ganda Christmas movies , na-sad rin sila na hindi kasama sa Metro Manila Film Festival ,” said Vice .
“ Pero masaya lang rin kami kasi last year , naipalabas nang mas mahaba ang pelikula namin kaya siyempre mas marami ang nakanood . Pero siyempre , iba kapag film fest entry ka ,” he explained . “ Parang pride rin namin ‘ yun , nung production at ng artista . Kaya ngayon happy ulit kami .”
Despite what happened last year , he assured fans they will continue submitting an entry to the MMFF committee every year .
“ Nasa sa kanila naman ‘ yun kung papasukin kami or hindi . We wish and we pray na sana

tanggapin kami ,” he said .
Did they have to change the vibe of their film in order for it to be part of the eight official MMFF entries ?
“’ Yung vibe ng movie ko , isa lang naman , fun lang naman , feelgood , good vibes . Wala kaming binago . The usual masayangmasaya lang at makulay ,” he claimed .
He is well aware there ’ s a certain level of subjectivity among the MMFF jury , which happens to be different every year .
“ Hindi mo alam kasi iba-iba ang taste ng tao . So , maaaring iba ang taste nila last year , iba ang taste nila ngayon . So , ngayon sa taste ng bagong jury pasado ‘ yung material namin kaya pumasok kami ,” said Vice .
Quite interestingly though , Vice admitted he was really nervous as to who would make this year ’ s MMFF lineup .
“ Noong araw na i-aannounce na , live kami sa ‘ It ’ s Showtime ,’ tingin ako nang tingin sa Twitter . Ano ba ‘ yan naabala ako , hindi ako ma-brief ng maayos kasi may inaabangan ako sa Twitter . Nakaka-tense , parang announcement ng semifinals ng Miss Universe ,” he recalled with a laugh .
For what it ’ s worth , Vice is very glad they made the cut . As to their film ’ s potential box office

And Aiza Seguerra only has one : for his followers to call him Ice .
The recording artist and chairperson of the National Youth Commission opened up on social media on Tuesday and said that he wants his fans to acknowledge his sexual orientation .
He began his open note to his friends and family by reiterating his decision to come out : “ May ilang taon na rin ang nakakalipas when I first came out . Yes , I came out as trans man three times already .” standing , he had this to say : “ Ako , niloloko ko sila lagi , P1 billion . Kasi powerful andg words , malay mo ibigay pa rin naman kahit paano . Wala namang masama dun , lagi na lang tayong magclaim ng claim ng maganda at positive ,” he ended .

It ’ s Ice Seguerra , not Aiza anymore
He continued by asking if they could refrain for calling him “ ate , miss , tita , sis , ninang , senyora , ma ’ am , and madame .” He also doesn ’ t want to be referred to as a “ she ” and a “ her .”
“ This is how I see myself and I would appreciate if people around me will respect that . If you do not understand kung ano ang trans man , PM me and I will gladly explain ,” he said .
His Facebook post has since been praised by his wife , who wrote : ICE SEGUERRA . Not Aiza , not Aiz . Just ICE . How ‘ COOL ’ is that ?” ●
