2012 Luna Awards for Filipino cinema – nominations
The Film Academy of the Philippines (FAP) has revealed the nominees for the 30th Luna Awards.
Paul Soriano's Thelma leads the field with nine nominations. Its mentions included Best Film, Director, Actress (Maja Salvador), Supporting Actress (Tetchie Agbayani) and Screenplay.
Next with eight nominations was Manila Kingpin: Asiong Salonga Story. In addition to nods for Best Film, Actor (Jeorge ‘E.R.’ Estregan), Supporting Actor (John Regala, who competes against himself in this category) and Screenplay, it was nominated for Best Director. This was in spite of the fact that the reshooting of scenes and re-scoring of the film led director Tikoy Aguiluz to ask to have his name removed from the film.
Ruel S. Bayani's No Other Woman received seven nominations including Best Film, Director, Screenplay and Actor (Derek Ramsay).
The three other nominees for Best Film were Marlon Rivera's Ang Babae sa Septic Tank (The Woman in the Septic Tank), Joyce Bernal's Segunda Mano (Second Hand), and Jade Castro's comedic Zombading: Patayin sa Shokot si Remington (Gay Zombies: Kill Remington with Fear).
The 30th Luna Awards ceremony will be held on August 26, 2012 at the Quezon City Sports Club.

I am quite surprised why Carlo Mendoza was not nominated for best cinematography when their film, " The Manila Kingpin: The Asiong Salonga Story" Won the best picture in the 30th Luna Awards. You cannot produce an award winning film if you do not have good cinematography. In fact Carlo won again as best cinematographer in the 60th Famas Awards in addition to the 4 other awards he won for the same film .
