I'm going back to Pinas in Dec for the first time in almost 19 years, so i plan on doing an absolute crapload of shopping while i'm there.
Apart from plastic balloons and barrel men i'm looking to get a fair share of VCDs and music, but i don't really know where to start.
All the Filipino movies i've seen are about 850 years old (no really, Vilma Santos is like 20 in some of them...) and if i have to watch ANOTHER Mano Po i'm going to cry. I'm looking for something in the vein of Jologs in regards to storyline, or even something cutesy like BCUZ OF U.
Basically rec me any movies with good storylines OR any not so great movies with guys that look like Diether Ocampo in them lol
But please, NO PIOLO. My mother already has ALL his movies D:
As for music, well my parents are sick of me listening to Kpop/Jpop/Cpop and want me to listen to more Filipino music (Fpop? FliPop?) so if you guys can recommend any good pop or hip-hop artists it would make them VERY happy :)
Thanks guys

I would not advise you to buy fake CDs, VCDs and DVDs as you might get into trouble in the immigration. It's bye, bye freedom once you get caught. You will find a lot of reputable music and movie stores in malls with great selections.
For tagalog movies, I would suggest the ones made by Star Cinema. Most of them are pretty good movies.
For music, there's a lot I could recommend: Janno Gibbs, Nina, Paolo Santos, Nyoy Volante, Parokya ni Edgar, Regine Velasquez, Jimmy Bondoc. MYMP. Or probably you could ask for assistance with the store staff.
Enjoy your vacation!

MOvies: Try the recent horror movie of Claudine and Kris. It's entitled "Sukob". What about "Dubai"? starred by Aga, John Lloyd and Claudine? or "All My Life" - Aga and Kristine? Or comedy like "D'Lucky Ones" - Sandara and Joseph.
Music: The very popular Pinoy Pop artists are Kamikazee in the song "Narda", Cueshe in "Ulan". Or you could also try Bamboo, Itchyworms, and Rivermaya. Or Sarah Geronimo who is the Princess of Pop, her songs are great. Erik Santos also being the Prince of Pop.

you'd find everything at Greenhills (Shoppesville)! they got everything there! especially pirated items. expect guy to sell you DVDs secretly because it's illegal (pirated). "miss... DVD... DVD" would be what they'd be saying. it's about Php 80. there are also shops that sell music cds for Php 50.
