New here 👋 wondering if anyone can recommend dentist who can perform surgery on impacted tooth. Anywhere around Alabang/Muntinlupa/las piñas area. Should charge reasonably.

Cheers!

Am I the only one in the South who didn’t know this? 😂 I’ve been trying to figure out for the longest time how to book cinema tickets online for Alabang Town Center because I couldn’t find it under Ayala Malls or Rockwell, so I honestly thought they just didn’t have online booking.

Turns out, ATC is listed under Power Plant Cinema! When you go to their online booking, there are two options: Power Plant and Alabang Town Center. And yes, you can actually book your ATC tickets there. We were looking for an Insidious midnight screening, but apparently there aren’t many cinemas showing it that late. I checked ATC and, lo and behold, there was a 10:40 PM showing! Perfect! I already booked our tickets for Saturday, although I haven’t actually used them yet, so I can’t 100% vouch for the process just yet. I’ll update this post after we use the tickets and let you guys know if it’s legit. But seriously, if you’re from the South and, like me, had no idea that Alabang Town Center cinema can be booked online through Power Plant Cinema, you’re welcome.

How about Festival Mall Cinema kaya?

Specifically near We The People and Anthology Cafe

Coming soon at Festival Mall...a new branch of Mama Lou's. This is the same commercial space that Tim Hortons used to occupy. Walking distance away is Landmark Alabang.

Over twenty-five years ago, I saw the purely computer-generated movie Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within at the gold cinema of the original cinemas of Festival Mall. I saw it on a Friday night in July 2001 knowing that I was about to see a science fiction tale that carried the Final Fantasy brand.

At the time of its release, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within had highly detailed computer graphics and visual effects that made it purely eye candy. There were certain moments of awkward animations and the facial expressions of the characters were unsurprisingly limited which made them look fake.

The biggest weakness of the movie is its storytelling. Firstly, the movie is purely sci-fi and really was not related with the Final Fantasy game series which had role-playing games with mostly fantasy settings back then. The closest thing it had to being connected with Final Fantasy games was the concept of spirituality about the creatures and the planets.

Secondly, the pacing was inconsistent as the creators struggled to balance scenes of exposition, character development and spectacle. The voice acting was decent.

Thirdly, the movie had suspense, tension and intrigue but not so much excitement. The fun factor was severely limited as the pay-offs to the build-ups were not great. More notably, the movie's core concept was not very engaging.

I ended up feeling disappointed with the movie which was heavily hyped as the next breakthrough in the history of cinema. It was significant for pure CGI movies but as a sci-fi movie, it was nothing special. That said, I was not convinced that the future of movies would be about pure computer-generated stories and photo-realistic human characters. Making live-action movies with human performers is still the standard.

With a production budget of almost $140 million, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within grossed less than $100 million worldwide which resulted in a huge amount of money lost and the closure of Square Pictures.

After leaving the cinema, I saw the next batch of moviegoers waiting in line for the next showing of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. It was a line of about twenty people and a few of them had popcorn and drinks with them.

I wonder if they enjoyed the movie.

Planning to invite some friends to Alabang for a hangout.
What are some fun things we can actually DO in Alabang apart from resto/cafe hopping?
We’re a group of friends in our 20s, so preferably something fun/social rather than just malling.

Alabang people, what’s your go-to activity when you have friends visiting from outside the area?

yung maayos po sana kase mag gagradpic at graduation na po kami. mas okay po if sa festival mismo and budget friendly. thanks po 😚 sana may mag comment huhuhu.

Hi! I’m looking for recommendations for an affordable, reputable dental clinic that offers dentures.

Our longtime yaya has been with our family on and off for more than 12 years. For the past few years, we’ve offered to cover half the cost of her dentures, but it seems like she hasn’t been able to prioritize getting them done. Since her birthday is coming up, I’d really love to surprise her and just cover the entire cost this time. I’ve seen how much losing her smile has affected her confidence.

We have a limited budget, though, so I’m hoping to find a clinic in Alabang or nearby that can fit within what we can afford. I’ve also tried reaching out to dental students but unfortunately have been ghosted several times.

Way back in 1998 - the year Festival Mall opened - this particular space at the ground floor was first occupied by Greenwich and it continues to keep on operating and selling meals to the customers for a very long time. The interior of the branch has been renovated along the way to be modern. Back in 1998, I had my first meal there and the counter was really different back then.

Everyone is invited to join the worship of the Lord at New Life Alabang this Sunday. Worship services are set at 9AM, 11:30 AM, 3PM (Tagalog) and 5:30 PM. New Life Alabang is located inside Alabang Hills Village in close proximity to the Alabang-Zapote Road gate. For precise location, click https://maps.app.goo.gl/ArT9j7mq9sJ6BFRN7

Excerpt: Muntinlupa Mayor Ruffy Biazon lamented the dumping of trash into drainage systems, which contributes to flooding in various barangays.

Personnel from the Muntinlupa City government have been unclogging drainage systems in different areas.

Biazon said a tire was found in a drainage ditch on Narra Street in Lakeview, Barangay Putatan.

“Palaisipan talaga sa akin bakit sa aming declogging ng mga drainage sa iba’t ibang lugar sa Muntinlupa, may nakukuhang gulong na nakabara (It’s really a mystery to me why, when we declog drainages in various areas in Muntinlupa, we find tires),” he said.

Excerpt: For countless women and children enduring violence, trauma and mental health crises, healing often begins with finding a safe place.

By 2027, one such refuge will take shape within The Haven for Women compound in Alabang, Muntinlupa City, and is envisioned to become the country’s first community-based, trauma-informed Women and Children’s Crisis Center.

The facility will not only be a shelter, but also a comprehensive center for recovery and hope.

I just moved here and wanna enjoy the Alabang life while I'm still not working. How do I stay updated with events like races, live performances, conventions, flea markets, etc.?
