TOP 8 MALAYSIAN CINEMA HABITS

Image
As you know, I have PhD in Movies and Masters in Cinema Visits and that means I have done my research ample of times. Having to frequent lots of cinema gives you the chance to observe the many different behaviours of the patrons of cinemas in Malaysia. I will now write some of the epic ethics in cinema which I sincerely hope that Malaysians at least get their shit together for better cinema experience for everyone. Why top 8 you ask? Because top 10 is too mainstream and also  THIS IS A RAGE EDITION!  1. Chair Rocking Do not rock chair or chairs. A rocking chair is a fucking rocking chair no matter whoever chair it belongs to . The last thing I want when I am immersing myself in a movie is my chair felt like a fucking roller coaster. I meant seriously people, stop shaking that chair of yours, what are you doing bro? STAHP! Are you making out with that chair? #foreveralone. This shit happens mostly from a guy, happens lesser when a lady sits beside me. 2. Explanation Du...

MOVIE REVIEW: FURY

Image
Been a long time since I watched a show in IMAX and watching Fury was a good choice. Apparently, TGV did not show Fury on normal screening either. So yeah, just roll with it and I find myself enjoying the movie. Fury is the name of their tank, lead by Wardaddy ( Brad Pitt ) together with Byod ( Shia LaBeouf ),  Trini ( Michael Peña ),  Grady ( Jon Bernthal )  and finally new recruit, Norman ( Logan Lerman )   where their final mission is to hold a crossroad with shitloads of Nazi heading to their way. They are the last in the line and with a tank, they will hold the line. THE GOOD  Brad Pitt's acting as Wardaddy really brings out the emotions. Although he is getting old, his acting gets much better. The story starts slow and progress very well throughout the whole 2 hours and 30 mins timeline. The movie also makes you constantly on the seat because of the scenario and also shooting which happens all of a sudden. That one minute of silence and sud...

MOVIE REVIEW: THE BOOK OF LIFE

Image
Animation keeps getting better these days and resulting a much nicer experience and also laughter when watching one. The Book of Life speaks about a fairy tale love where 2 guys, Manolo ( Diego Luna ) and Joaquin ( Channing Tatum ) tries to capture the heart of Maria ( Zoe Saldana ). The gods put their bets on either one to marry Maria and thus set one of them off to an adventure span on three fantastic worlds. THE GOOD The animation is beautiful. Everything inside the show feels like you are playing "Little Big Planet" . It really takes you on an adventure and the acting on all fronts are good. The voice acting couple with the singing and dancing really keep you feel touched and feel like dancing. There are some parts where you just keep wanting to know more what happens next. THE BAD There are some part which I feel just there to be prolonged the movie. There is lots of things to absorb at one point and also with cartoon, you cannot think so much. The girl...

[K-Listens] TaeTiSeo : Holler 2nd Mini Album

Image
Ever since I listened to Twinkle by T ae T i S eo (Taeyeon, Tiffany and Seohyun) by 3 of the 9 8 now after the sudden departure of Jessica   which caught the attention of fans (SONE)  and non-fans. SM Entertainment (SNSD agency) took a stock dip after her announcement on leaving the group. Jessica's issue turned the K-pop scene upside down and but thankfully TTS album was absolutely amazing. Sometimes I wish there were more songs but then again you know what they say right, QUALITY over QUANTITY people. This 2nd mini album name "Holler" with such a fine looking album art featuring 6 track list as below. Track List: 01. Holler 02. 아드레날린 (Adrenaline) 03. ë‚´ê°€ 네게 (Whisper)  04. Stay 05. Only U  06. EYES TTS 2nd mini album!  Their  first song is  Holler  and it also the upbeat opening song compare to Twinkle although they got the same opening as Twinkle. This song showcase more towards their group synergy and also towards the voca...

HOW MY DAD TAUGHT ME DISAPPOINTMENT

Image
90s kids are refereed to "Strawberry Generation" these days. The sole reason for this is that they crack under pressure, badly . I have came across lots of them but I have also came across those who persevere and just keep marching on. Parents have actually a big role on this part and no matter how much you try to deny it, your parents whipped you good when you are young right? My dad taught me disappointment in the most old skool method ever. He only rewards you if you do good in something, if you don't live up to his promises/expectation you will then know that NO amount of persuasion, hard sell, soft sell, or whatever selling can get him to buy you that particular item. Trust me when I tell you that because I have work on the most epic proposal(s) and ample of speech to get something out from him. Throughout the years, I have made tons of proposal, mainly on gadgets and many times my dad will enjoy my soft selling or hard selling, or partially rage selling ...

MOVIE REVIEW: ANNABELLE

Image
Ever since Child's Play, I know very well that one fine day dolls will really f*ck your life up. And Annabelle represent this very well. Annabelle was before The Conjuring and it tells the tale of the doll that was given from a husband, John Gordon (Ward Horton) to his wife Mia Gordon (Annabelle Wallis) as an upcoming gift for their soon-to-born child. Everything went wrong when the doll was curse one fine day by a dying cult member, Annabelle Higgins  who committed suicide after her partner was shot by the cop shortly after she murdered her own family and invaaded the home where John and Mia Gordon lives in. THE GOOD Finally the history of how the doll happen to be cursed is known to the public although some of the parts are changed pretty much to fit the story which includes the doll. There is tons of jump scare and also some part which resonates with you, for example the lift part. Where the lift keeps opening and closing in the same floor where there are no lig...

MOVIE REVIEW: DRACULA UNTOLD

Image
Before Twilight there used to be a breed of vampires which are the rulers of the night. They are fast, silent and powerful. They drinks humans' blood. They can never face the sunlight as they will die as the sun shines on their skin. Then came freaking Twilight, a fail breed of vampire obviously written while the author is busy smoking up and reading some romantic novel at the same time thus human perception of vampires started to change with their all girly manner and also glitters while they are under the sun (srsly?). Disappointed.... I ran as far as I could and hid myself in the cave just so the memories of a real vampire stuck with me. Then Dracula Untold came. This story tells a tale of Vlad Tepes (Luke Evans) and his family ruled over a small kingdom with peace for a century. However, when a ruling rival king, Mehmed (Dominic Cooper) with a growing army demands from Vlad the first born male of every family to join his army. Vlad made a pact with the dangerous supernatur...
