update on the movie front.

1. History Boys - if you're into movies like "mona lisa smile" and "dead poets' society", this is your baby. I love this kind of movies. :D they are inspiring and intelligent. :D makes me feel like i am intelligent and more importantly, inspired too. I've compiled quotable quotes from this movie but it's on my personal laptop so i'll just post it later. :D

2. Ferris Bueller's Day Off - (I thought this would be the last iconic 80's movie on my list, only to find out that there's "Fast times at Ridgemont High" starring a 30 years younger Sean Penn. That I'd like to watch. :D Then I'd follow it up with "Milk".) So....Ferris Bueller, is one hell of an annoying person. Seriously. Of all the wrong things that he is. What I appreciate the most in the movie is the possibility of being that lucky. Because Ferris Bueller in all of his annoying glory is one lucky human being. Just plain lucky. If you dig in deeper. It's more like the universe thing. If you really want it the universe will conspire to give it to you. (So, maybe I don't want some things enough, or I just lost my touch with the universe lately. Gahd what have I done?! Please come back universe!). On a more superficial sense, this movie stars a very good looking young charlie sheen. I was shocked he used to looked like that. :))))

3. The Hot Chick - surprisingly, I laughed out loud on this one. :D I've heard about this movie way way way back in high school. I remember my gay classmates imitating the kissing thing Rachel McAdams and her on screen boyfriend were doing in the movie. It has been on top of my head for awhile so, why the hell not?!

4. The Avengers - I can't believe the day that I saw this one in torrent. :))) I wasn't expecting a dvdrip until september when the dvd will come out. Just imagine, my excitement when I first saw it...:)))  I wasn't able to watch it in the cinemas, because I wasn't really into this superhero movies and the fact that I am scared of watching Chris Evans as Captain America. (What if he fails?!) Anyway, the movie was really funny and I liked it. I even liked diva-Loki-puny-god. :D Was really impressed with Black Widow and thought she will die because of her "bloody red ledger" rambling. Tony Stark is really really witty. :D I love his humor. I like Capt. America, but even though my sisters explained to me that he is intelligent, I still have this dissonance. How the hell does he know all those "plan of attacks"?! How the hell is he so effing NOBLE. Really?! Gaah! And I completely missed out on the whole Capt. America butt thing. I am sorry. I wasn't able to see the fuss about it. They say it was emphasized...but I don't think so...


5. The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus - Heath Ledger. The Last movie of Heath Ledger. I love love Heath Ledger and I was eternally sad that he had to die so young! :( Anyway, this movie have Heath Ledger, Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell. (With the exception of Colin Farell, I love love Heath Ledger and Johnny Depp, and love Jude Law. :D). So with just that the movie is already great. Not to mention it was about a story teller. and the surrealism feel of Dr. Parnassus' Imaginarium is just perfect for my wonky brain. I am just not too happy about Lily Cole. But she has really really big eyes (not to mention a big set of boobs) so I guess that compensates it. Oh! and annoying Anton was played by Andrew Garfield. Not that I am a fan. For one, he was annoying, if he was supposed to be, then Andrew Garfield was good at it. And yeah. I am not a fan of him. Except when he is Spiderman/Peter Parker.
