sliderule Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Almost forgot, apparently when Superman returned, he did a bit of work here in Manila hehe There's some unproven speculation on that soundbit from Superman Returns - that line overheard from the TV news - it changes depending on what city the film is being shown, e.g. if you're watching in HKG, then the sound bit will say "Superman was spotted in hong kong...etc". Quite an ingenious marketing gimmick, if you ask me. Quote Link to comment

For the Simpsons naman, there was Homer making up some equation regarding the end of the world, and he mentions "adding the number of Filipinos in the Bible." Oh, and I noticed sa Star Wars, one of the Ewoks seemed to shout, "Ayon!" Quote Link to comment

kadafy Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 (edited) * in the film "i not stupid" by singaporean director actor/director jack neo, there's this scene where the kidnapped chinese student was asking his kidnapper to put some butter on his bread to w/c the kidnapper respond: "i'm not your filipino miad". * in the "rock", there's this guy in the kitchen of the fairmont hotel who got bumped by sean connery. he was yelling: "hayop!. p*tang ina mo! anak ka ng P*ta!" * in "the sleeping dictionary", the male lead was asking his "sleeping dictionary" (played by jessica alba) to teach him speak the local dialect by translating the body parts he touches. and when he got to her breast, she said: susu.

kadafy Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 @ amante delsexo - i think what he was trying to say is that the singaporean movie "the maid" starred a pinay actress - alessandra de rossi. i guess the character ms de rossi played is quite obvious. . . another movie: "grandma's boy". the lead actor's "roomie" lost all the rent money because he spent all of it at a pinoy massage parlor Quote Link to comment

howard_the_duck Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 sa jay leno, they went to the auditions of who wants to be a super hero, and there's a babe who says she's "basura girl", tagalog for trash the babe was hot though... maybe trailer trash Quote Link to comment
fulgar Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 In the movie 'The Bachelor' (1999 - Renee Zellweger and Chris O'Donell), during a one scene in which Renee and Marley Shelton were dancing with some Latino-looking guys - she mentioned they had downed 20 San Miguel's.... although not mentioning the Philippines in particular - it did refer to one of our most visible products - San Miguel Quote Link to comment
amante Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 sa jay leno, they went to the auditions of who wants to be a super hero, and there's a babe who says she's "basura girl", tagalog for trashSaw this too, though doubt it... "Basura" is actually Spanish for garbage. And since the girl is probably from LA, it is more likely related to Mexico rather than the Philippines. Quote Link to comment
ken_2_10_nah Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 One episode of law and order: criminal intent had a cold opening with two pinays cleaning up a new york apartment... one of them remarked to the other: "Ay naku, may nag-milagro nanaman dito sa kama!
