Vice Ganda MMFF 2023 – A netizen has this comment about the absence of the Unkabogable Star in this year’s film festival.

Vice Ganda Absence In MMFF 2023 Is A Good Thing? Fans React

Fans of Vice Ganda reacted to a netizen’s point of view about the MMFF 2023 entries

Unkabogable Star Vice Ganda has no entry for the Metro Manila Film Festival 2023 and a netizen appeared to point out the advantage of this.

Vice has done several movies for MMFF in the past. For this year, the comedian-host opted not to make a movie for this year’s festival. As early as July, Vice’s close friend and former manager Ogie Diaz expressed that the Unkabogable Star was not planning to do a movie for the yearend film fest.

Ogie shared that it is because Vice wants to do a different thing. It was said that the comedian was planning to do a movie that was supposed to be released by November, just like his 2016 movie The Super Parental Guardian which became a massive hit.

Not having a Vice Ganda entry this year for the MMFF, a netizen said that this allowed the moviegoers to explore other films.

Netizen @NashNaci0n on X wrote, “The absence of a Vice Ganda or Vic Sotto entry this year allow these type of films to shine and compete at the box office.” The netizen wrote this as a reaction to a post of netizen @dogsgong about the quality of this year’s MMFF entries.

“#MMFF2023 is indeed a revelation that Filipino film makers can pull off caliber films. This year’s entries are like vying for the Oscars Best Picture category: Well-acted, well-directed films. Looking forward to this kind of entries yearly!!” the netizen remarked.
