Turned out there weren't a lot of people who were as eager as us to see it. But that doesn't dampen our spirits!!!!! Go go go Philippines!!!!!!

UPDATE: What I thought of the movie I'll write later on but I just wanna share this.
We got home from the movies and we turned on the TV to see today's episode of Charlie Rose featuring the three lead actors and the director of Bourne Legacy. At the very end of the show the conversation went to why Manila was chosen for the film. Director Tony Gilroy only has this to say: That Manila is very Bourne-ish because it's so colorful and ugly and gritty, raw and stinky and crowded. I'm not even gonna argue about that but knowing the excitement and interest and hospitality of the Filipinos in welcoming this Hollywood production, I can't help but feel like this is a one-way love kinda thing. They needed Manila for the chaos that it is and they're done with it. Let's not be the pathetic ex-girlfriend that hangs on after being dumped!
