Great Classic

There are certain great movies that you would rewatch and rerun endless times, and still feel, you know, great. For a lifetime. I think I'm an emo & a cry-baby when it comes to love stories. I've just caught a glimpse of short clips of the movie from YouTube, and I think it touched me just as much, so much so that for a second, I thought my tear ducts started running its engine. And I'm talking bout this movie in particular.

My Best Friend's Wedding (1997). And I'm classifying this as an all-time favourite classic. This was the movie, that made 'The Way You Look Tonight' a hit again. Will get the full version of this movie for a re-run. But in the meantime, found these clips to share with you. Enjoy :D

Mongol (2007)

Thanks to my highly-interested-in-history other half (I'm quite sure he's not reading this), I've had the opportunity to watch this movie a few months back (without really knowing it was gonna be an up-coming blockbuster movie). I see that it's now showing on GSC screens, so I did a little more homework to find out more on the movie that I'd been trapped to watch back then, without knowing a clue of what to expect. I think I did ask if it was gonna be one of those long boring movies with lots and lots of historical data to digest. By the name of it 'Mongol', that would be a common perception to hold. But I was proven wrong. Historian or not, I would want to really recommend this movie if you're interested to find out more of the ever-famed great ruler, Genghis Khan that practically everyone in our century (or centuries before) have heard of. Directed by award-winning Sergei Bodrov (Russian), the story brings us to see how Temujin grew up as a kid in all life's turbulence, right up 'til how he became Khan of the Mongol Empire, the largest & greatest empire of all time in history. A truly reflective movie. Do give it a go!

Earth Is Clocking On Us...

You've probably taken part in Earth Hour's worldwide effort.
And at some point of time in your lives, you've also probably did your part in making the earth and environmental-friendly place to live in. Things you do like saying no to open burning, car-pooling, to little things like choosing the right avenue & channel to recycle papers, aluminiums, plastics, and glasses. If you're nodding your head by now, I can tell you, you've done good, and please continue to do so. But if you're sniggering and/or yawning your way through the thought of those, then you ought to seriously take a look at what you're causing a world to be in future.

Here are a few movies/documentaries that could be rather thought-provoking, mind-awakening to many of us.

The Age of Stupid (2009)

(click here for more info)

This has a pretty cool movie title, I came across this trailer today. It's a new movie, released in March 2009, but I've yet to watch it. Shall see if I could find it anytime soon here in Malaysia.

Do give it a go on these movies, and don't forget to help spread the message too! :D
