Cignal Celebrates 1 Million Subscribers!

Happy can't even describe the the feeling of CIGNAL Digital TV last night when they celebrated a feat that looked good from all corners of the Philippines. They just had 1 MILLION subscribers, unbelievable, but they just did.

They started the occasion by telling their humble beginnings, back when they were just a small corporation who believed wireless is the way to go. The Philippines has 7,120 islands and it was something normal to have a service that can go past geographical locations, so you could have CIGNAL TV at home. It is wholly owned by MediaQuest Holdings through the PLDT Trust Fund. They are also using the prepaid platform of the biggest telecommunications network in the country, Smart. They've got a whole lineup of channels that have SD and HD quality and Filipinos have been enjoying them til today!

Present during the occasion were Paolo Bediones, Anne Curtis Smith, Jasmine Curtis (who hosted the event), Manny V. Pangilinan and CIGNAL's very own Emmanuel C. Lorenzana. They even went ahead and said they can't wait to actually have the next million subscribers, a feat that might prove to be more challenging since they have really good competition. They remain very optimistic, admirable for a once small company that was once unsure the technology was going to be bit by Pinoys. Congratulations CIGNAL! You've outdone yourselves!

Mr. Robot's First Season On iFlix

Had the chance to visit A Space Gallery in Makati City for the iFlix premier of the series Mr. Robot. The show stars Rami Malek who also appeared in the last Twilight installment as part of the Egyptian coven, and also his biggest break with funny man Robin Willams for the Night at the Museum movie. Now he plays the role of Elliot Alderson for Mr. Robot which is a drama-tech-psycho thriller originally shown on USA Network.

iFLIX is available in Malaysia, Thailand and the Philippines but is eagerly expanding throughout the Southeast Asian Region! This exclusive iFLIX premier will probably be a regular thing so if you want the best shows and series, go get an iFLIX subscription for 99 pesos a month if you're on PLDT, Smart, SUN and TalkNText. I'm telling you, I sleep around 3AM sometimes because it's very addicting.Now it's you're turn!

Mr. Robot is now on iFLIX, I can't wait to see what will happen next after we've seen the first one yesterday! Download the iFLIX app on the App Store and Google Play today!

Elwood Perez's Esoterika: Maynila

Penned by one of the best Filipino writers I know, Jessica Zafra - this film which was released late last year in several local screenings, international shows such as Hong Kong International Film Festival and soon in the FaCINE Filmfest in San Francisco USA this October is called ESOTERIKA: MAYNILA (international title Esoterica: Manila). It's directed by Elwood Perez of whose works include classics such as Silip, Bilangin ang Bituin sa Langit, and Bagwis. It's finally going to have a special commercial exhibition today September 23, up until the 29th 2015 at the Edsa Shang Cineplex at the Shangrila Mall in Mandaluyong City.

It's under T. Rex Productions (owned by Rex A. Tiri) and will have screening times at 2:20pm, 4:40pm, 7pm, 9:30pm on the same mall. A short program, photo ops with cast and crew will also happen on the first day right before the 7PM screening. This film just recently got a FAMAS Critic's Choice Award a few days ago and perhaps soon, an international release would also happen as there are several producers from other countries that are interested in doing so.

We interviewed Ronnie Liang about the film, his album and other things during a press conference held at 77 Limbaga in Quezon City. Here's what he has to say:

Remember, the theatrical run will only be until the 29th of this month so make sure you catch the screening!

Wingstop’s UAAP Sports Snack Bundles

I'm a Warrior and I've been watching all the games of my alma mater since the start of UAAP Season 78. It's unbelievable because the impossible just became possible as schools who initially had the greatest players, the greatest hopes and reviews on their lineup suddenly became vulnerable by other schools who everybody thought would just lose their games in the first round. My school was part of that roster but look at where we're at now! It's those run and gun games, fantastic plays, the good old school spirit that made the journey so different that in a rookie laden school, we became the great story in every sports related website, TV show and whatnot. It's the heart of the players, the tough battles we've conquered that makes my school the best. I'm sure you've got your UAAP story to tell but after every game, every match and every hymn played in Smart Araneta Coliseum or Mall of Asia Arena, there's nothing but the best thing to do but bond over food and drinks. That's where WING-STOP comes in!

Aside from the 10 lovely, savory, sweet and spicy flavors they have for the Chicken Wings, they're taking it up a notch by offering Wingstop UAAP Bundles. Imagine for Bundle A, you've got 25pcs Wings, 25pcs Boneless Chicken Bites, Texas-Style Fries, Onion Rings, Chipotle Rice and a 1.75 liter Coke in a pitcher.

Bundle B on the other hand has 25pcs of Wings, 12pcs Chicken Tenders, Texas-Style Fries, Onion Rings, Chipotle Rice, and a 1.75 liter Coke served again on a pitcher. Now if they ask you what flavor to order, might I suggest the Garlic Parmesan, the Atomic (for deadly spice lovers), the Mango Habanero and the Teriyaki. It's my personal favorites but you can always order the others. The plain ones are as good too. Now that they've bundled it, you don't have to point fingers anymore who's going to order what, or get them in trouble if you didn't like it. It's that simple, they've actually done everything for you!

Currently, these bundles are all available on their BGC Stopover, Alabang Town Center, UP Town Center, Glorietta 2, Greenhills Promenade, Estancia, Fairview Terraces, Eastwood CityWalk and TriNoma branches. Make sure you get those sour cream dips too because they're too good to pass on when in Wingstop! I ate a ton of these, so make sure you get them before the promo ends soon! Each bundle costs Php 1999.00, totally worth it!

Trust me on the wings!
