hazel, of course, bakekang is absolutely fugly…yet sunshine dizon will surely give justice to her new role which nora aunor did 3 decades ago

is this considered MONOPOLY.
para siyang si chris,she is like in every show.

IS SHE A MAJOR STOCK HOLDER IN GMA, because there are so many talents in GMA, CANT THEY GIVE EVERYBODY A FAIR CHANCE NAMAN.

as an actress, sunshine dizon will give this character more than a 3-dimensional-larger-than-life depth. i cannot think of anyone else who can play this role well. minus the hype (unlike kris - whom i think (my opinion) cannot act), i expect only the best from this series (as in the case of atlantika).

girlie, we think it ain’t considered monopoly. kasi sino sa tingin mo ang babagay sa bakekang? eh sobrang bigat nung role na iyon. baka kahit si iza calzado at angel locsin hindi kayanin ang role na bakekang. not even diana zubiri nor alessandra de rossi.
hindi naman sa lagi na lang siya sa teleserye ng gma. despite some issues about her being pasaway, nagagampanan naman niya ang bawat role na mabuti — protagonist man or antagonist. and since may experience na si sunshine sa pagganap noon therefore magagampanan niya ang role na iyon ng mabuti—lalo na dalawa ang character ni bakekang

sunshine’s a good actor. no doubt about it. pero ang catch, kaya ba niyang dalhin ang buong show. oo, kumita ang ENCANTADIA, pero hindi iyon dahil kay sunshine (equal parts sila nina Diana, Karylle at Iza) or kumikita rin ang CAPTAIN BARBELL but then again, si Richard ang nagdadala ng buong show… as far as i could remember, makailan beses na ring nagkaroon ng soap si Sunshine (as in siya talaga ang bida — mga dalawa o higit pa) pero hindi ito kumita as expected.

oo nga…eniwei, we should give her a chance and we should avoid stereotyping just like what we are doing to other gma artists
September 13th, 2006 at 8:03 pm
i agree to you mga kapuso,talagang deserving si sunshine.baka nga malampasan pa si nora.

I don’t think credits should be wholly given to Sunshine, ppl are actually interested to see Sheryl Cruz being in a new role of villainess. Sheryl for me should’ve been the Bakekang, mas crowd drawer sya kaysa kay Sunshine na wala namang ibang achievements kundi ang maging Pirena, yun lang!!!!
