Believe it or not? a movie on artificial intelligence had me stayed up all night and this has never happened eversince i was like thirteen?? I am never a big fan of sci-fi movies or novels . I am more towards stories about a distant land, dungeons, swoosh buckling, two samurais in a duel over a lady's honor or sorcery. My friends kept pestering me to join them for movies but upon proposing High School Musical , they have stopped pestering eversince .I mean come on it is way more exciting than Doraemon right?
I am a huge fan of basically everything. Comedy, horror, love stories, cartoons and musicals but i just can't bear those extreme thinking movies such as the recent "International" or this korean movie that went from the future and out of the sudden flicks of scenes from the past , then another vivid chapter of the present and its the future again. The arrangements were all jumpy and chaotic. Eventhough i have an idea on the storyline i barely enjoy the process of watching this movie. I told my friends strictly that we have to watch Race To Witch Mountain but they dragged me to the International and in the end we all regretted paying for the tickets.
O yeah call me a wuss but i enjoy cartoons from Disney such as the Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Shrek and Pochahontas. I don't watch these cartoons to keep girls company . I really do enjoy them. Pochahontas touched my soul.
I do not enjoy reading manga or better known as japanese comics but i love watching japanese animation especially those with humorous script or heartwarming tales.
I used to follow Naruto till i realise the episodes never seem to end . It is just too long for me to follow !!! My favourite anime of all time will be the legend of Battusai -Samurai X, Prince Of Tennis, Slam Dunk {though i didn't collect the comics} and lately upon being introduced by my friend - Hitman Reborn though it isn't my favourite but i find the characters kind of interesting and the hitman's instructor is simply adorable.
Strange, but i have never enjoyed Dragonball or Gundam like other friends my age.
I mean i do enjoy the series but i do not collect cards, figurines or comic books of them. Ultraman makes me feel like a retard if i happen to be watching it and the recent Dragonball movie is a major let down.
However, apart from Robocop , Star Trek and Star Wars, i have never laid passion towards movies that involve space shuttles, alien warfare or battle in Vietnam with tanks and bazookas . NAM the tour of duty have always failed to impress me. Apologies guys, but Donnie Yen and Rambo, its still Donnie Yen, genuine chinese kungfu! Of course bullets are faster than fist but i like my heroes to be artistic with slick movements .
Johnny 5 the android with feelings from this movie is simply fascinating. This movie brings back a lot of memories for me as a kid. He has got intelligence, humor, sense of awareness and most importantly he has feelings just like me and you.
It was tragic watching him bleeding out battery fluid as if a being was bleeding to death. It felt so real that i almost shed a tear. It felt even more miserable when he had lost his ability to speak and picked up a rock and he wrote " I am dying " on the wall with one eye coming out from its socket and one arm gone.
It was as if i was there with the robot. This movie is totally a must watch! Short Circuit 2 is just a great movie of all time.
