My 10 favourite “based on true story” movies.

July 27th, 2010 by sixpegs

I don’t know about you.
But everytime when I realize that a movie is “based on a true story”, it makes me take the movie more seriously.
I would make it a point to go google how the real person looks like and then wikipedia the entire story.
Being a movie buff, it gives me great pleasure to introduce a few of these movies that I absolutely love.
I love all of these movies and if you’re looking for a good movie to watch, you might wanna consider these! :)

10 Different Ways to Say I Love You.

January 17th, 2010 by sixpegs

Lovers in love, are you guilty of being unromantic?
When I was younger, I remember my Mom telling me that men
who love to eat sweet stuff are always more romantic that those who doesn’t.
The star sign experts also claim that there are some signs that are more romantic than the others.
Well, I don’t buy any of that.
To me, I believe that everyone can be romantic.
Being romantic doesn’t always revolves around getting expensive gifts,
or setting up surprise candlelight dinners.
It’s easy to show you love, and sometimes just a small gesture can let your loved one be the happiest person.

We are often caught up with our endless work commitments.
Sometimes when you’re together with someone for too long a period,
you might subconsciously take that person for granted too.
So here is a little nudge for everyone out there.
Read these little suggestions on how you can put a smile on your loved one’s face, and try them today!

10 Anti Theft Gadgets.

January 2nd, 2010 by sixpegs

I haven’t been coming up with any “Top Ten” posts lately, but hold up!
I think this one is going to make everyone laugh at least a little.
Don’t know about you but I can get quite paranoid sometimes,
especially when it comes to looking after my belongings.

Even when we’re very careful, there are still pickpockets & thieves all around us.
So, it is also out responsibility to make sure we keep out valuables out of their sight.
Apparently, some of the other folks were even more obsessed about it.
They took one step further and came up with some of these awesome anti theft gadgets!

1. Anti Theft Lunch Bags

If you have inconsiderate and hungry-ghost like colleagues, please consider getting this.
The Sandwich bags contain green splotch marks on both sides of the bag,
so when a sandwich is packed in there, it looks as if it is old and rotten.

10 Hottest Girlfriends.

October 29th, 2009 by sixpegs

I know I really should be studying now.
But looking at my blog, I thought I should have an exciting entry for both boys and girls.
Alas, here comes my blog entry to save the day!

I once asked my guy friends why they like to read my blog since I normally blog about girl-related issues.
And one of my close guy friend was pretty honest and he admitted that he reads me blog because “there are pretty girls to see”.
Notice that he was referring to my hot female friends, not me. (that bastard)
And like what I’ve mentioned before, there is always a lesbian in every girl.
Well, I do agree that I have a huge lesbian in me too.
Everyone likes to look at something pleasant to the eyes, right?
Therefore, I’ve shortlisted ten female friends whom I honestly think that they’re super hot!
I really hope my female friends don’t kill me!

So here comes the one and only -

October 20th, 2009 by sixpegs

I was reading an article few hours ago while waiting for Buttons to get his haircut.

So here is a checklist for everyone in love! :)

10 Favourite Movies.

August 23rd, 2009 by sixpegs

Being a movie buff & being surrounded by movie buffs,
I think this entry is totally necessary!
In fact, Buttons & me got into quite a debate
when we’re coming up with this following list.
It got us totally excited and orgasmic as well.
It’s true – good movies can really bring you to a new high.

I know there will probably be a lot of debate and ideas coming up from you,
especially if you’re a movie buff yourself!
So if you’ve got other movies not mentioned here and
you think everyone should watch them before they die,
please do us a favour and share!

That’s why, here is a list of my

TOP TEN FAVOURITE MOVIES!

ONE

closer

In no particular order, I’d first like to introduce CLOSER.
Starring Jude Law, Julia Roberts, Clive Owen and Natalie Portman,
this show has probably already won half the battle with its impressive cast.
This movie is believable, accurate and
probably a little too harsh showcasing how fucked up
adults, relationship and sex can turn out to be.

I love the intensity of the show and particularly the dialogues.

TWO

silenceofthelamb

SILENCE OF THE LAMB needs no introduction.
Total pure classic.
All it takes is one cold stare from the intelligent and psychotic
Dr. Hannibal Lecter to send chills down your spine.
I always liked thrillers and particularly this one,
because it’s really god damn sick.

THREE

ghost

Oh! I love GHOST by Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze.
I’ve watched it around three times & I adore everything
from Unchained Melody to Demi Moore‘s short crop in that show.
It left me at the edge of my chair
feeling angry & heartbroken all at the same time.

I’m sure everyone would know that classic scene at the pottery wheel.
This one is a must watch!

FOUR

amelie

AMELIE is my favourite girl.
Enchanted, whimsical & unimaginably amusing.
She seeks solitude and loves it.
I love the cinematography of this movie and
how little details are always brought to the viewers’ attention.
It taught me how to appreciate small things in life.
How I wish I can see the world through Amelie’s eyes!

I can still remember the scene when Amelie asked herself -
“How many people are having an orgasm in Paris right now?”
And she can randomly decide on “Fifteen”.

My favourite quote from the movie?
“You’ll never be a vegetable – even artichokes have hearts.”

FIVE

butterflyeffect

Yet another nervewrecking, mind effing movie.
Buttons & I totally agreed that this movie has got to be in the top ten!
Firstly, there’s Ashton Kutcher in it.
Secondly, I totally love “Stop Crying Your Heart Out” by Oasis.
And even if those two reasons are invalid,
the plot of this show has got to be rated as TOTALLY AWESOME.
BUTTERFLY EFFECT – what a perfect name for this movie.

SIX

independenceday

I remember watching this movie when I was still a kid.
The scene with the dog escaping the fire in the tunnel is truly memorable.
I haven’t watched this one in a long time though.
But from what I could gather (based on my memories of the show),
this movie is totally fantastic!
Will Smith rocked.
And if I remember correctly,
the actor who was the US President was quite cute too.

SEVEN

horsdeprix

HORS DE PRIX, also known as Priceless.
I caught this show in the theatre twice when it was being screened.
Again by one of my favourite actress, Audrey Tautou.
I just cannot take my eyes off Irene (played by Audrey) in this movie.
It’s the love story between a gold digger and a poor waiter.
But some twists came along & made this one a really adorable film!

EIGHT

sunrise sunset

BEFORE SUNRISE is about two strangers spending a night in Vienna.
The affinity between them is almost magical but yet very convincing.
The movie doesn’t boast of a lot of action or whatsoever,
just packed with intriguing and interesting conversations.

The sequel, BEFORE SUNSET is shot 9 years after the first movie.
1995 & 2004.
In the movie, it was exactly 9 years apart as well.
So you can really see Ethan Hawke & Julie Delpy aging a little.
I love the song “Let Me Sing You A Waltz” in this one.
Love it!

NINE

blooddiamond

Leonardo Dicaprio‘s acting was totally awesome in this.
Period.

TEN

bourneidentity

Who doesn’t love the whole espionage-gone-wrong,
‘the corporation is turned against you’ idea?
I think somehow Singaporeans loved this one for the
whole anti-establishment, sanitised and removed ‘agency’ in it.

Besides, Matt Damon was real beefed up for the film as well.
Yummy.

?

Sorry that I ain’t no Star Wars or Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter fan.
There are really too many shows that I adore!
Actually I’m one big sucker for chick flicks too.
Bring It On. Sex And The City. Devil Wears Prada. Mean Girls.

I TOTALLY LOVE THEM!

I didn’t include any Chinese shows as well – WAY TOO MANY to mention!

Here are other shows I think I should watch before I die too.
I better get down to watching them soon!

Memento
Talented Mr Ripley
Reservoir Dogs
Trainspotting
Godfather

Okay, time for Kill Bill!
