Movie Mania

People react to 'To Do' lists in different ways. Some spend 3/4 th of the time alloted to a task simply making lists and then the remaining 1/4th panicking because they have no time to execute the perfect plan. Still others choose the proactive approach of Procrastinate Now! unlike lazy bums who just waste their time.

Me? I watch movies..

Movies I've seen recently :

The Butterfly Effect
Chasing Amy
A Fish Called Wanda
The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human
Memento
Requiem for a dream
The Usual Suspects
Love Actually
Shopgirl
Hitch
The Firm

Ghajini
Kanda Naal Mudhal
Adhu Oru Kanakaalam
Kaadhal

Scrubs season 4
Monty Python's And now for something completely different

You can just imagine how much work I got done!!

Ahaan! And how did you like "The Butterfly Effect" and "Requiem For a Dream"? And how about "Memento" and "The Usual Suspects"?

Try watching "The Shawshank Redemption," "Hotel Rwanda," "City of God," "Snatch" and "Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels"

Amazing movies!!

And hey, don't you think Ghajini is a poor copy of Memento?

Suze said...

Anon, i definitely DO sleep.. usually in the middle of rehearsals when i'm due on stage :p

Wiseorotherwise, i thought ghajini was a v v bad copy of memento.. argh!!

Loved all four movies u mentioned..

I think my favourite movie was Kaadhal.. It is a beautiful movie with well etched characters and an intricate slice of south indian life

It has strangely haunted me for a week after seeing it, so def. it ranks #1 on my current list of movies

Yah!!! darsait as in?..Indian school muscat or in indian school muscat...which is the kerala state board school....

Abinand said...

Monty python!! MY GOD!!! I watched this movie (the holy grail thingy) since it was in the imdb top 250.. Its worser than the tamil spoof shows on TV.

And i wonder...how come ppl in IIMS get all the rare divx movies?? 'cos the ones i have now are IIM imports:)

Anonymous said...

oh you people should see her in classes... she scores a touchdown (tip of the nose on the desk in front) atleast thrice each class!!!!

Suze said...

yup that's true @ anon.
but it is NOT b/c i'm sleepy
even in the middle of tnight i stayed awake through QM classes simply b/c they were interesting..

I sleep these days even after getting 12 hours the previous night simply cos i'm bored

or when arbit cp-putters hijack an entire class in a desperate effort to score cp marks!

:)

Abinand, haven't seen the holy grail but monty python is the king of all spoofs!

I dunno how we get the movies though.. I swear i never laid a hand on the cookies! :)

Requiem for a dream is a brilliant movie. The theme music is awesome n a lil pepped up version was used in the 'Dicor' ad.

Suze said...
