Many Filipino movie buffs have enjoyed their own favorite movies being
shown in cinemas during the celebration of Valentines Day and Chinese New Year.
In the end, it was Marvel's Black Panther that dominated the local box-office throughout
a long and very tidious weekend while the light romantic Filipino flick Meet Me
In St. Gallen managed to shine on its own proving that local films should not be
left out in the hearts of the Filipino audience.
Marvel Cinematic Universe's kickoff movie of 2018 has officially garnered a box-office gross of Php258.57 million across hundreds of local theaters in just five days. With such a smashing record, Filipinos have brought Black Panther the highest-grossing February opening sales in industry history. It has also the highest-grossing opening weekend sales so far in 2018 and exceeded that of previously shown Marvel flicks such as Guardians of the Galaxy, Thor: Ragnarok, Antman and even The Amazing Spiderman among others.
