Twilight: Pinoy version AKA Takipsilim


CAUTION! This entry contains information that is not suitable for severely addicted Twilight fans.

I haven't even started my post on the movie Twilight and this is what slapped me on the face this morning.

You see, my husband was checking his e-mail when he was more than disgusted rather than annoyed at one of the mails he received. It was the making of a Pinoy version of the hit novel slash movie Twilight. The said title of the show would be Takipsilim (ack!).

Do you still want me to continue? Ready for your little brown bag? Ok! Don't tell me I didn't warn you...

So ABS-CBN paid a whopping five million big ones for the copyright of this upcoming TV series. It is said that the crew will start filming early next year and will be shooting in cities like Baguio, Tagaytay, Bukidnon and some outside the country (as if it'll make things better).

Have you heard enough??? Can you still hold it in? Ok! If this doesn't do the "trick" then may I congratulate you for having a strong stomach.

Here's the tentative cast of the upcoming TV series. Drum roll please....


Rayver Cruz as Edward Cullen
Shaina Magdayao as Isabella Swan
Valeen Montenegro as Alice Cullen
Gabby Concepcion as Dr. Carlisle Cullen
Luis Manzano as Emmett Cullen
Al Tantay as Charlie Swan
Yayo Aguila as Renee Dwyer
Fred Payawan as Jacob Black
Carlos Agassi as James
Chin Chin Gutierrez as Esme Cullen
Karylle as Rosalie Hale
Joross Gamboa as Jasper Hale
Jessy Mendiola as Jessica Stanley
Empress Schuck as Angela Weber
Brad Murdoch as Laurent
Nikki Bacolod as Victoria
Aaron Villaflor as Mike Newton


I really don't know where to begin with this lineup. "Like gag me with a spoon why don't ya!"

One word: Aaaaaaa!!!!!!

It's bad enough that they're making a Pinoy version of this but I don't think they were really that serious when they did the casting. I have nothing against these actors. I'm sure they're all talented but somehow in this bizarre world of making every Pinoy version that the networks see, I see no connection from the characters of the Twilight to the actors listed above. Maybe the only person that I can "accept" is Chin-chin Gutierrez as Esme. That's about it. I love her eccentric self and it kind of fits Esme's dark and weird vampire mommy character.

As for the rest, I am reserving my harsh opinions to close friends that are Twilight fanatics because it's Christmas time and I don't want to be in the "bad list" of Santa Claus. LOL.

Comments? Suggestions? Violent reactions? Please contact ABS-CBN. I'm hoping it's not too late. Or better, maybe this is just a hoax. Hehe!

The remake would be fun since we’re doing it on a filipino’s point-of-view more or less.

Huwag tayong masyadong maging pessimistic. The American version is a flop itself. You never know, baka mas maganda pa ang magawa ng pilipino. If you don’t want it, then don’t watch it. Just bring this petition thing down. It degrades the entertainment industry.

Besides, who’d go wrong with a show made by the country’s best network.

Seriously, let ABS-CBN show you what they can do. Then let’s give reactions after it. Not BEFORE it.

I completely agree with all the people who don't like it..

Y'all should stop saying "Filipinos are creative/talented, they can do better"

Evidently, Filipinos are not creative. They always copy internation things, such wanabes. I remember copied stuff like "Tabing Ilog" from Dawson's Creek and what not. Ahh..this is sooo irritating.

When things like this happen, then once again I become ashamed of being one...thanks to my family genes that I can pass for a Mexican here in the states.

HELL NO!

Who in God's good earth thought of this??? This is soooooooooooo insulting.

PLEASE SAY NO. I don't freaking care to what pros those positive about this plan may be, it just doesn't FIT. Even if it was GMA who would be doing it, it's still a big NO. Not ever.

When I found out about this, I got so irritated & grossed out. Talagang nandiri ako, I'm sorry. Thank God I don't watch local TV programs. Pero it's still NO.

im filipino and im kinda annoyed. im really mot into the filipino movies. it would be nice if they did something original for once. i like twilight but i really can't imagine (and i don't want to try) filipinos doing this kind of movie. it's just going to be a waste of money.

Is this bit of news really true? Hmmm...why is it that we really like to keep copying stuff from others just to make money out of it? First, its kind of demeaning already that they have to make something in Filipino version (are u guys implying Pinoys couldn't understand english?). Next...why not come up with a series with a similar plot but not make an exact copy of the characters and stuff? I mean hello? You have a pinoy named Edward Cullen? Or do you translate Edward to Eduardo too? hahaha. Soooo baduy...and i've seen the poster. The guy who's supposed to be edward...total opposite of the description. More like a local street thug.

even though i'm a flipino and i do believe that we have great actors---they shouldn't have made a filipino version of it!!and sometyms they tend to add stuff that's not really in the book and it would just turn out to be unnecessary and it would honestly turn out to be cheesy and science-fiction looking......

i think that if they continue this they would not receive those good feedbacks coming from those who really loved the books :)

ewwness! for me, the movie is bad enough to represent the most romantic novel i have ever read., and now they are making it worse! Seriously., Filipinos are talented people, what i hate about stereotype filipinos is they don't have creativity in making their own novel or whatever, they have to copy EVERYTHING they see.. seriously., don't do this., Twilight fans like me will hate ABSCBN for life!!

please... i have nothing against our actors... but this is a bit of a risk... think about the millions of fans of twilight... and some of them are even disappointed of the movie (like they said, the movie is only good for those who didn't read it) and this will come up? i don't think this is a wise move...
maybe they should let the crowd to "recover" from the trend..

if they decided to continue, they have to prepare themselves for a massive wave of criticism..

...seriously, if ABSCBN is quite serious in producing Takipsilim...

...for god's sake I hope they know the difference between making an adaptation and a literal translation...

...there's a whole world of difference between the two..

...for example, as Anonymous Dec. 24 11:55 AM posted already, if you're going to make a Filipino version you need to adapt it and Filipinize it, so to speak...

...no need to have the exact similarity of characters in the book, I mean Eduard as Eduardo?! or the town of Forks here in the Philippines as...well...Tinidor...located in some idyllic province far away from Manila..

...baduy to the highest level...

...personally, i really don't care much about this whole twilight shenanigans but if they're going to draw attention from the international community because of their...uh...hopeful endeavor, they damn better do it right...

...i'm going to do something out of character and give them the benefit of doubt: there is potential but whether they play their cards right and mess it up as some standup comedy is yet to be seen...

Let’s give ABS – CBN a chance to prove themselves, the actors as well. Others say they don’t want to be Filipino anymore just because of this Takipsilim thing. Please don’t say that. Stop criticizing it, let’s see what becomes of their project and if you don’t like it, then stop watching. Give your opinions after you’ve seen it. It isn’t right to judge it without even seeing it.

ABS-CBN: No truth to Web rumors of "Twilight" adaptation

ABS-CBN Broadcasting Corporation said there is no truth to the Internet buzz about the company doing a local version of the hit movie/novel "Twilight".

"There is no truth to the Web reports, particularly in the Perez Hilton blogsite, that ABS-CBN is doing a local adaptation of "Twilight". ABS-CBN will be the first to announce if it is, in fact doing so," according to ABS-CBN Corporate Communications' Bong Osorio.

Last week, abs-cbnNEWs.com did a story on an Internet report about the adaptation. The prospect of a local adaptation of "Twilight" has caused a lot of discussion, sometimes heated, on various Internet discussion fora.

Please ABS-CBN.. now you know that many people are in opposition to your remake of "Twilight" (I feel very revulsive speaking of that word.. makes me sick.)
the moment I knew of this, I couldn't help sending letters to ABS- CBN. This TV series would really annoy most of the Twiligth fans. Let us not let them continue this ludicrous thing.. We should protest and of course, Stephenie shouldn't have let them bag the rights..Filipinos are talented.. who knows.. if they create a new one which is not about Twilight.. a drama one.. maybe it could be a hit.. I write many love stories and people love them. Well.. if you don't know, my novels might outshine your so-called remake of "Twilight" which is *********.LOLz.. Just kidding. But I am totally not joshing around about protesting against your about-to-shoot series.. Get your own series for those characters. This will be your biggest mistake if you continue. Imagine what their names would be.. Edward=Edwardo.. Carlisle=Carlito.. Rosalie=Rosalinda.. Alice=Alicia..
wow.. what a bomb!!

maybe i could send my novels to ABS-CBN and it would make a hit..I am a big fan of Twilight.. so stop messing around 'em.. ROBERT is not roberto.. god speed t*******m protesters..

well, what a stupid idea! remaking twilight in such cheap version?! I bet, they're going to mess everything in twilight: characters, location, effects, theme songs, & even those inspiring lines of edward cullen & bella swan!

...and it's seem to be a huge embarrassment for our version whenever some twilight fan(outside the country) knows it!!

...YUCK!! >>takipsilim<<

hey where are those shitheads' manners?! degrading a blockbuster movie?!

where's your PRIDE...do you still have it??

well, for me?! my own opinion to that is...let ABSCBN do their job on producing a Filipino series of Twilight..Well, they spent a large amount of money for that and i don't think they will put that into a waste..lets accept the reality and that lets should not conclude things so far because its beyond our capabilities...lets just hope for the best!!!

oh please.. a bunch of pa-class, over-acting, obnoxious, "Filipino-hating" Filipinos over here.

First of, I know, this was confirmed to be untrue by ABS BUT let's just assume that this was true.

So what?!?!

It's not like the show is intended for YOU Twilight fans. It would have probably be a way to introduced the story to the Filipino masses.

Ans why is it automatically labeled as baduy or gaya-gaya when Filipinos produced remakes?

I don't hear anyone accusing the US of being gaya-gaya for doing a Betty La Fea remake.

And let's just say it turned out to be campy.. who cares!?! can't you watch it for laughs?

Dragonball live action is such a stupid excuse for a rip-off but still, people will watch it "for laughs"..

Why can't the same be applied to Takipsilim..

Let's just try to be objective in judging our own.

Kung matalino kang tao, alam mo na kapag gawang Pinoy ay hindi kagad pangit. Pag-isipan muna bago maghusga.

Sa bagay, Twilight fans nga ang nag-react e, ano ba ang aasahan sa kanila.. It's not like matalino ang usual readers ng Twilight.

Twilight: Pinoy version AKA Takipsilim


CAUTION! This entry contains information that is not suitable for severely addicted Twilight fans.

I haven't even started my post on the movie Twilight and this is what slapped me on the face this morning.

You see, my husband was checking his e-mail when he was more than disgusted rather than annoyed at one of the mails he received. It was the making of a Pinoy version of the hit novel slash movie Twilight. The said title of the show would be Takipsilim (ack!).

Do you still want me to continue? Ready for your little brown bag? Ok! Don't tell me I didn't warn you...

So ABS-CBN paid a whopping five million big ones for the copyright of this upcoming TV series. It is said that the crew will start filming early next year and will be shooting in cities like Baguio, Tagaytay, Bukidnon and some outside the country (as if it'll make things better).

Have you heard enough??? Can you still hold it in? Ok! If this doesn't do the "trick" then may I congratulate you for having a strong stomach.

Here's the tentative cast of the upcoming TV series. Drum roll please....


Rayver Cruz as Edward Cullen
Shaina Magdayao as Isabella Swan
Valeen Montenegro as Alice Cullen
Gabby Concepcion as Dr. Carlisle Cullen
Luis Manzano as Emmett Cullen
Al Tantay as Charlie Swan
Yayo Aguila as Renee Dwyer
Fred Payawan as Jacob Black
Carlos Agassi as James
Chin Chin Gutierrez as Esme Cullen
Karylle as Rosalie Hale
Joross Gamboa as Jasper Hale
Jessy Mendiola as Jessica Stanley
Empress Schuck as Angela Weber
Brad Murdoch as Laurent
Nikki Bacolod as Victoria
Aaron Villaflor as Mike Newton


I really don't know where to begin with this lineup. "Like gag me with a spoon why don't ya!"

One word: Aaaaaaa!!!!!!

It's bad enough that they're making a Pinoy version of this but I don't think they were really that serious when they did the casting. I have nothing against these actors. I'm sure they're all talented but somehow in this bizarre world of making every Pinoy version that the networks see, I see no connection from the characters of the Twilight to the actors listed above. Maybe the only person that I can "accept" is Chin-chin Gutierrez as Esme. That's about it. I love her eccentric self and it kind of fits Esme's dark and weird vampire mommy character.

As for the rest, I am reserving my harsh opinions to close friends that are Twilight fanatics because it's Christmas time and I don't want to be in the "bad list" of Santa Claus. LOL.

Comments? Suggestions? Violent reactions? Please contact ABS-CBN. I'm hoping it's not too late. Or better, maybe this is just a hoax. Hehe!

The remake would be fun since we’re doing it on a filipino’s point-of-view more or less.

Huwag tayong masyadong maging pessimistic. The American version is a flop itself. You never know, baka mas maganda pa ang magawa ng pilipino. If you don’t want it, then don’t watch it. Just bring this petition thing down. It degrades the entertainment industry.

Besides, who’d go wrong with a show made by the country’s best network.

Seriously, let ABS-CBN show you what they can do. Then let’s give reactions after it. Not BEFORE it.

Is this bit of news really true? Hmmm...why is it that we really like to keep copying stuff from others just to make money out of it? First, its kind of demeaning already that they have to make something in Filipino version (are u guys implying Pinoys couldn't understand english?). Next...why not come up with a series with a similar plot but not make an exact copy of the characters and stuff? I mean hello? You have a pinoy named Edward Cullen? Or do you translate Edward to Eduardo too? hahaha. Soooo baduy...and i've seen the poster. The guy who's supposed to be edward...total opposite of the description. More like a local street thug.

...seriously, if ABSCBN is quite serious in producing Takipsilim...

...for god's sake I hope they know the difference between making an adaptation and a literal translation...

...there's a whole world of difference between the two..

...for example, as Anonymous Dec. 24 11:55 AM posted already, if you're going to make a Filipino version you need to adapt it and Filipinize it, so to speak...

...no need to have the exact similarity of characters in the book, I mean Eduard as Eduardo?! or the town of Forks here in the Philippines as...well...Tinidor...located in some idyllic province far away from Manila..

...baduy to the highest level...

...personally, i really don't care much about this whole twilight shenanigans but if they're going to draw attention from the international community because of their...uh...hopeful endeavor, they damn better do it right...

...i'm going to do something out of character and give them the benefit of doubt: there is potential but whether they play their cards right and mess it up as some standup comedy is yet to be seen...

ABS CBN SUCKS! They are so damn loser that they'll do everything to earn money. They'll ruin everything. Right now Twilight is so popular that they have to hitch to it's fame. The cast, Rayver and Shaina are lunatics to agree with it. I never been so outrage like this. The love I have for the novel and the movie itself can't be replaced by this moronic, absurd move. A lof of fans all over the world are so mad. I'm a Filipino but this thing that this sank network's moronic move makes me don't want to be a Filipino anymore.

ABS CBN, Have some respect to other's people view, I know you don't have some left with you anymore but please, respsect the original version, the cast and crew, Stephenie Meyer (who knows, you'll just twist the entire stories, just like what you do on all your shows) and specially have some respect to the fans.

i agree with CHIN CHIN GUTTIEREZ as Esme i like her as an actress with great accent and eccentric deliverance.

we are very COPYCAT breed.

Rayver and Shaina are not suitble playing the lead chracters. eww.

seems like the lopez's has nothing to do with their money that they waste it on producing these kind of shows.. dyan ba napupunta ang mga sobrang singil ng meralco at mga uber profit na mga negosyo nila? tangina nga naman kapag di mo talaga pinaghirapan kaya mong maglustay ng 5 million for a lame show. mukha pang ewan yung edward kapag nakita ng mga foreigner twilight fan's mapapa-YUCK!

Let’s give ABS – CBN a chance to prove themselves, the actors as well. Others say they don’t want to be Filipino anymore just because of this Takipsilim thing. Please don’t say that. Stop criticizing it, let’s see what becomes of their project and if you don’t like it, then stop watching. Give your opinions after you’ve seen it. It isn’t right to judge it without even seeing it.

I haven't read the book or the movie. But i think they're doing it for the profit. But then again (no offense) I couldn't care less.

ABS-CBN: No truth to Web rumors of "Twilight" adaptation

ABS-CBN Broadcasting Corporation said there is no truth to the Internet buzz about the company doing a local version of the hit movie/novel "Twilight".

"There is no truth to the Web reports, particularly in the Perez Hilton blogsite, that ABS-CBN is doing a local adaptation of "Twilight". ABS-CBN will be the first to announce if it is, in fact doing so," according to ABS-CBN Corporate Communications' Bong Osorio.

Last week, abs-cbnNEWs.com did a story on an Internet report about the adaptation. The prospect of a local adaptation of "Twilight" has caused a lot of discussion, sometimes heated, on various Internet discussion fora.

this is so utterly absurd..

i cannot imagine it.. i feel chagrinned of this idea.. how ptitiful.. Filipinos still have no high technology in running animations and effects.. seriously.. they cannot outrun the original, "Twilight".. this really vexed me.. grr.. Please ABS-CBN.. now you know that many people are in opposition to your remake of "Twilight" (I feel very revulsive speaking of that word.. makes me sick.)
the moment I knew of this, I couldn't help sending letters to ABS- CBN. This TV series would really annoy most of the Twiligth fans. Let us not let them continue this ludicrous thing.. We should protest and of course, Stephenie shouldn't have let them bag the rights..Filipinos are talented.. who knows.. if they create a new one which is not about Twilight.. a drama one.. maybe it could be a hit.. I write many love stories and people love them. Well.. if you don't know, my novels might outshine your so-called remake of "Twilight" which is *********.LOLz.. Just kidding. But I am totally not joshing around about protesting against your about-to-shoot series.. Get your own series for those characters. This will be your biggest mistake if you continue. Imagine what their names would be.. Edward=Edwardo.. Carlisle=Carlito.. Rosalie=Rosalinda.. Alice=Alicia..
wow.. what a bomb!!

maybe i could send my novels to ABS-CBN and it would make a hit..I am a big fan of Twilight.. so stop messing around 'em.. ROBERT is not roberto.. god speed t*******m protesters..

well, what a stupid idea! remaking twilight in such cheap version?! I bet, they're going to mess everything in twilight: characters, location, effects, theme songs, & even those inspiring lines of edward cullen & bella swan!

...and it's seem to be a huge embarrassment for our version whenever some twilight fan(outside the country) knows it!!

...YUCK!! >>takipsilim<<

hey where are those shitheads' manners?! degrading a blockbuster movie?!

where's your PRIDE...do you still have it??

uhhm.. ABS-CBN already told the Filipinos that this is just a HOAX.. and even though.. those actors mentioned are so expensive..

trust me.. those lined-up actors/actresses are impossible to be together in one movie...

well, for me?! my own opinion to that is...let ABSCBN do their job on producing a Filipino series of Twilight..Well, they spent a large amount of money for that and i don't think they will put that into a waste..lets accept the reality and that lets should not conclude things so far because its beyond our capabilities...lets just hope for the best!!!

oh please.. a bunch of pa-class, over-acting, obnoxious, "Filipino-hating" Filipinos over here.

First of, I know, this was confirmed to be untrue by ABS BUT let's just assume that this was true.

So what?!?!

It's not like the show is intended for YOU Twilight fans. It would have probably be a way to introduced the story to the Filipino masses.

Ans why is it automatically labeled as baduy or gaya-gaya when Filipinos produced remakes?

I don't hear anyone accusing the US of being gaya-gaya for doing a Betty La Fea remake.

And let's just say it turned out to be campy.. who cares!?! can't you watch it for laughs?

Dragonball live action is such a stupid excuse for a rip-off but still, people will watch it "for laughs"..

Why can't the same be applied to Takipsilim..

Let's just try to be objective in judging our own.

Kung matalino kang tao, alam mo na kapag gawang Pinoy ay hindi kagad pangit. Pag-isipan muna bago maghusga.

Sa bagay, Twilight fans nga ang nag-react e, ano ba ang aasahan sa kanila.. It's not like matalino ang usual readers ng Twilight.

Anonymous said...

this is a freakin stupid idea!
i mean come on! leave twilight movie as it is!
why cant filipinos be original?
please dont make me hate ya'll
please please please dont air this show!
i swear, if anyone sees this, i'll be ashamed to be a filipino! seriously!
and i guarantee you, people will laugh at you! this is to embarrassing! open your eyes! just read these comments! what more when air this show? people from other countries are gonna laugh at your faces! im doin you a favor..please dont even start rehearsing this show..

i really don't think this would work well
u guys know that the vampires should be pale white rite?
i really think that no one could pull off bella swan better than kristen stewart
i mean the real movie had just the perfect actor for each part.
for twilight lovers dont forget november 20 new moon and oh just incase u guys dont know they're making a movie out of each book even breaking. isnt that awesome?
