It's a Wonderful Life (1946) and the Shop Around the Corner (1940)

It's a Wonderful Life (1946) Clip


These two movies are leaded by James Stewart. They're both black and white movies.

It's a Wonderful Life is about a man who had been stuck in life because he had to oversee his dad's organization. He wanted to go out and see the world. But he couldn't. He then faced a huge problem in life that he wanted to kill himself by jumping off the bridge. Luckily, an angel was sent to help him. As for how the story ends, you'd better watch it yourself!


The Shop Around the Corner (1940) Trailer


The Shop Around the Corner was reproduced in a modern version staring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan know as You've Got Mail. It's really an interesting story. In You've Got Mail, Meg Ryan's book shop is called the Shop Around the Corner, a tribute to the old movie.

Both movies are highly recommended.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009)

The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) Trailer

A rather boring sequal. We are joking that if I were the werewolf, I would kill the girl for good. And if I were Edward the vampire, I would bite the girl for good too.
Such a cliche plot.

Lady Gaga - Summeryboy

I can't believe I'm listening to Lady GaGa! Ha ha! Is it a joke?
I like the melody of Summerboy and Poker Face. And I can't forget the spoof of Just Dance in Sunday Night Project! Bravo!

Robbie Williams - You Know Me

I love Robbie William's album Reality Killed the Video Star. I like the song You Know Me most. I like the rabbit outfit idea, it's like Alice in Wonderland. And the song Won't Do That is nice too.

I want to do Bim's MV too!

20th Century Boys 3

20th Century Boys Theme Song

This is the finale of the series 20th Century Boys. Don't forget to watch the additional footage after the ending song. It explained why the child has grown up and become Tomodachi (Japanese word for the "friend").

It's all about bullying and betrayal and a low self-esteem of a young child. Sounds ridiculous but I guess it's happening out there somewhere sometime.

To be frank, I am scared by the movie!

The Bucket List (2007)

The Bucket List (2007) Trailer

Another touching movie that makes me cried. The genre is said to be comedy. The ending is unexpected and is great.

Jack Nicholson's performance is great. Reminds me of another movie, About Schmint. They both talk about life.

I'd like to direct this kind of movies some day.


What is you bucket list?

Time Traveller's Wife (2009)

Time Traveller's Wife (2009) Trailer

I think this movie is under-rated. It is a very lovely and touching movie. And I love the melody of the theme song "Broken" so much.

If you like this movie, I recommend you watching P.S. I Love You too.

Duplicity (2009)

Duplicity (2009) Trailer

Must read the synopsis before entering the cinema! The plot is simple but the story is presented complicatedly. It is difficult to catch the storyline. Sometimes Julia Robers and Clive Owen is in New York, sometimes in Rome, sometimes in Dubai, but they're talking the same lines. It's very confusing.

The director wants to make it looks intelligent. However, audiences find it very confusing. In a nutshell, we go into the cinema for Hollywood stars. That's it.

Angels and Demons (2009)

Angels and Demons (2009) Trailer

This is the sequal of Da Vinci Code and is a much more interesting movie. The trip to find the four elements that lead to the Illuminati church is like treasure hunting. It is so interesting and exciting!

Earth, air, fire or water are the four elements. The way the cardinals died, related to the four elements, are so cruel. The movie contains many horrible scene. Parental guidance is recommended!

Monsters vs. Aliens (2009)

I love 3D movies!! Two thumbs up!

He's Just Not That Into You (2009)

He's Just Not That Into You (2009) Trailer

Are you the exception...or the rule?

Funny movie! I like this kind of movie which has a number of main characters and several story line. A lot of lessons for couples.

Seven Pounds (2008)

Seven Pounds (2008) Trailer

How can you be sure that your organs are suitable for the people you've chosen? Technically, the story doesn't make sense.

Ponyo On The Cliff By The Sea (2008)

Everyone is using the theme song as ringtone ><"

Do I resemble Ponyo because I'm always sleepy? Haha!
Lalala, wanna watch Ponyo again!

K-20 (2008)

K-20 (2008) Trailer

It's a Japanese movie with a seen-it-before plot. Is it bacause I've read so many Japanese comic books that I can easily guess the ending?

Anyway, it's a nice movie to watch.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) Trailer

I just feel like that this movie in many ways resembles Forrest Gump. For instance, the leading character travels on a boat. There was a captain on the boat. There were funeral scenes.
I don't think that Benjamin needs to run away. I think Caroline has the right to know what's happened to her dad.
Anyway, the make-up is superb. Kate is really a good actress. She is so convincing. She can act as a 18-year-old girl, and she can act as a 43-year-old woman. Bravo!

Twilight (2008)

Twilight (2008) Trailer

The first half of the plot is good. The vampire is like a rock star. But the second half of the story doesn't make sense. He can just turn her into a vampire, then no other bad vampire would hunt her.

P.S. This is the best movie compared with its sequels. I wouldn't watch it if I had known that the sequels are that bad. Very disappointing sequels.
