Remember, Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light? I’m sure you do. In light of recent events, I know that you’re starting to dread where this post is leading to.
But before you scream in anger/frustration/delight, Team Sugoi would like to put a disclaimer:
Ang mga masasaksihan ninyo ay pawang kathang-isip lamang. Ano mang pagkakahawig sa mga tunay na tao, pook, at pangyayari ay para lamang po sa layuning magpatawa at hindi pagkakitaan ng pera. Subalit, kung may gustong kumopya at mangulimbat ng aming ideya – paki-deposito lamang ang royalties sa aming account. Maraming salamat po.

First, it was Sailormoon. Then it was Shaider. Recently, it became Marimar.
As Team Sugoi ponders these recent disturbing news, the poor members gasp in horror as they realize what’s left!

As an 80s baby, I can be very sentimental. And since we’ve recently gone nostalgic, even more so. Imagine my shock when I found out that GMA has acquired the license for one of the most-loved icons of that time: Shaider.

Shaider, or Uchuu Keiji Shaider (English translation: Space Sheriff Shaider), is a Japanese live action series that originally ran in Asahi TV Japan noong 1984. Sa Pilipinas, it was first broadcast and dubbed in Filipino sa IBC-13 noong 1992 , then re-telecast sa GMA-7 noong 2003.

Tulad ng isa pang popular Japanese work na Lupin, nakuha rin ng GMA-7 ang rights ng Shaider. Isa ito sa mga primetime shows ng Kapuso Network.
Dominic Zapata is set to direct the Philippine version of Shaider after his Super Twins stint.
Ang StarStruck 3 Ultimate Sole Survivor na si Marky Cielo ang nakatakdang gumanap sa papel na Shaider. Ang StarStruck 4 Ultimate Female Survivor namang si Kris Bernal ang napipisil na gumanap na Annie.
Si Jay Manalo naman ang gaganap sa main villain na si Commander Kom. He will have five female assistants—four of which will be Bianca King, Isabel Oli, Arci Muñoz, and Iwa Moto.
What were they thinking? Seriously?

Do you know Weng Weng?
If you don’t, then that means you are not part of the generation that watched old Pinoy movies with their yayas on RPN 9 before taking their afternoon siesta when they were growing up.
Well just to make you guys remember:
