Equipped with the latest technology in film processing and recording, Magnatech Omni once stood proudly as one of the best and reliable post-production company in the 80s servicing major movie studios and film outfits in the country. The place, located at the corner of Sct. Borromeo and Mother Ignacia ave. in Quezon City, was always teeming and brimming with all kinds of showbiz people- from producers, directors, actors/actresses, production staff, technicians, stuntmen, bit players, even fans, onlookers. That’s how active, vigorous and full of life the Philippine movie industry was.
This is what's left of Magnatech--- an abandoned and ruined structure, once a flourishing and thriving establishment and a meeting place of who's who in Philippine movies.

What? I am shocked!
This is where we dubed films; where we had our regular Scriptwriters Guild of the Phillipines meetings; press preview of movies.
I can't believe how they just left this building looking like this. What's wrong with the Phlippines? Why not use the building for other purposes than leaving it this way?
As if it was just last night when I was rushing to go outside the building because someone was trying to carjack my vehicle. As I turned to the hallway, I almost bumped head on with Pilar Pilapil holding her child by the hand as they entered the building.
"Ay Sus!" was what she exclaimed in her typical Visayan way.
Parang kahapon lamang kuya Eddie :)
Very sad indeed. Kaya hindi maka-compete consistently sa global arena. Di paano tuloy ang pagawa ng mga negatives ng pelikula para gawing TOROTOT, kada New Year ?
