TREASURE HUNTERS

I saw this movie early this morning, Monday, March 25th, 2024, while in bed ๐Ÿ›️ via my cellphone's TUBI Streaming App.

Scene Commentaries:

Didn't I just mention something about a crowbar in my last post? Okay, it is getting so spooky watching these movies during the Witching Hour of predawn that link ๐Ÿ”— to each other!  ๐Ÿ‘น

Here's a heads-up. If you're a Westerner in the Philippines, your secrets won't be secret for long because there are a lot of Tsismis women ( Gossip Mongers ) loitering around.

Also, street vendors in the Philippines sell their items using the 2-Tier system: Cheap prices for locals and Expensive prices for Foreigners, especially the white ones. ๐Ÿ˜ Ya gotta haggle down the prices!  ๐Ÿค‘

In real life, if Pinoy kids see "whitey" out on the street, they will come & surround you begging for money because they believe that all white tourists are rich! ๐Ÿ’ต  Don't give them money because they are likely hustlers for abusive parents or "guardians" who want the kids to earn them money for drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, and for gambling! Treat them to some food, instead. Lord knows how long they've been without water and some decent food. And most of them have never even eaten at a fancy western style fast-food joint! But always ask ahead before you arrive at your destination for any travel tips from the local authorities! 

How could they wear a shirt and an undershirt in that humid ๐Ÿฅต heat! When I went back to the Philippines in '82 to '83, I was sweating 24/7 for at least 3 weeks before I became acclimated---And I was born there and lived there 'til my early teens❗

Those soldiers don't look Japanese at all! And their hair weren't cut Japanese military style!! And there should have been more of them to guard the perimeter as they buried the gold!!!

Politicians and guns DO go hand-in-hand in the Philippines! Political assassinations are common down there.

If you're gonna go around digging for Gold, you'll need body armors, helmets, weapons and lots of ammo--and that's not even all of it! 

That sure was a short ride on the Jeepney. They could just have walked the distance instead of having to fend off some drunk guys in the Jeepney.

Jeepneys were originally surplus Jeeps
from WW2, the Korean War and
the Vietnam War.
My family's first vehicle was a 1-Star
General's Jeep from the
Korean War.

I'd love to get a Philippine style sidecar someday:

There are actually much better looking ones
than this! They're mostly in the 125cc to
250cc range. Of course, you can get
a higher displacement engine if
you can afford it. And which
is a good idea because
these Trikes all get
really abused
by overloading them to
earn more money! ๐Ÿ’ฐ

Why didn't anyone tell that prima-donna that an electric fan, or 2, is better than having a fan boy at your beck & call?  ๐Ÿคท‍♂️ Better yet, buy an air conditioner. If you can afford such a house and have your own fan boy and your own cellphone retriever boy, you can afford to buy an air conditioner! And why don't you just keep your cellphone with you at all times? ๐Ÿคฆ‍♂️

₱300.00 is equal to approximately $5.50! A Pinay girl got herself cheated by a white foreigner for a change. Woo Hoo!  ๐Ÿ˜‚

Why would you go around in the jungle wearing your expensive jewelry? If you get yourself robbed in the jungle, it's because you were asking for it! ๐Ÿ˜’

The women were the ones digging the ground while the men just gathered around. There's one word that describes this odd social behavior: ๐Ÿ‘‰DOWNBLOUSE๐Ÿ‘ˆ ❗๐Ÿ˜œ❗And am I the only one who noticed the dozens of downblouse ๐Ÿ” ๐Ÿ‘€ scenes in this movie?!?!?! BUSTED❗๐Ÿคฃ❗๐Ÿคฃ❗

That doesn't look like a venomous snake! Neither does it look indigenous. ๐Ÿ˜• And that's also not the Philippine Reticulated Python. ๐Ÿ˜• I'm thinking that it's just some stock footage of a snake species that I'm not aware of.  ๐Ÿค”  But I'm guessing that it's some kind of a constrictor snake--I could be wrong ....

"If I had a dollar for every time someone said that to me, I'd be in Fortune 500." 500 in Philippine Pesos, you must mean. In which case,

That ain't much of a "fortune" at
all, if you ask me.  ๐Ÿ’ธ

you only robbed 8 others at gunpoint before you completed this one ❗๐Ÿคช❗

Ya can't pick-up a brick of Gold and put it in your backpack ๐ŸŽ’ that EASILY!

Well, if it's any consolation, the spider ๐Ÿ•ท️ is actually native to the Philippines! I've seen a lot of them when I went exploring around a part of the forest in Kidapawan, Cotabato, Mindanao, Philippines, as a kid along with a friend or two. 

And, No, ya can't go swimming in the sea with that Gold-laden backpack either❗๐Ÿคฆ‍♂️❗

The boy said, "Lola, Lola!" The subtitle said, "Mother, mother!" Lola is the Pilipino word for Grandmother ❗๐Ÿคจ❗Duh ....  ๐Ÿฅด

The Mexican-looking senator sweats a lot. He must be a new guy citizen!  ๐Ÿ˜ ( The Philippines and Mexico have a centuries-long shared history through the Spaniards. Correction, he's from Argentina.  ๐Ÿง  )

Did the senator even have to tell his thugs twice to chase after the American women? ๐Ÿคท‍♂️

The movie poster is so Very MISLEADING ❗๐Ÿ‘Ž❗

Why didn't they hire my services as Cine-Man, the Consummate Perfectionist? If there's gonna be a part 2 to explain the movie poster about some white girl going native in the jungle of the Philippines, they should call ๐Ÿค™ me. I sure could use a Philippine vacation right about now ....  ☺️
