Match Point

This has got to be the best movie i've watched this year.

If you thought Closer was good, have a gander at this one. It's as good (if not better) than Closer.

And it's English. (as in Great Britain, not the spoken word..though it is obviously narrated in English.)

I'm not going to bloody spoil the movie here (especially for those who've not watched it) but suffice to say that, this macabre rendition of a love triangle gone horribly wrong is an epic tale of struggle, between the passion of love and the greed of humanity.

If you're thinking of watching X-Men 3, MI3, or whatever stupid sequel, prequel or drama minggu ini this weekend, forget it. Go out, look for a DVD stall and grab this movie (Match Point) with your dirty great mitts and sit your bum back home before the crowd realises what a gem this movie truly is.

You're not going to be happy with the ending, but i'm sure you'll agree that (as bad as this may sound, and i'll probably be getting into a right kerfuffle with my mates about ethics on this) even though he shouldn't have gotten away with it, life's given him the luck of the draw.

All's fair in love..and war.

Right?

You know you live in 2006 when...

1.) you accidentally enter your password on a microwave. 2.) you haven’t played solitaire with real cards in years. 3.) the reason for not staying in touch with your friends is that they don’t have msn/xanga/myspace. 4.) you’d rather look all over the house for the remote instead of just pushing the button on the tv. 6.) your evening activity is the computer. 7.) you read this list, & keep nodding and smiling. 8.) as you read this list, you think about how stupid you are to read this. 9.) and… you were too busy to notice number 5. 10.) you actually scrolled back up to check that there was a number 5. 11.) & now you’re laughing at your stupidity.

The Truth About Boys.

"It's a sick joke," said a friend as he sipped his Coke. "Why do good guys always end up getting hurt?" I tried rationalizing it, failed, then subsequently tried to generalize it. I tried to make sense of something that; try as I might, bloody well doesn't. Good guys always, always , finish last. It's the rule of the game. And we always end up on the losing side. Girls (in general) play the game well. Imagine this: You're at a bar, a girl chats you up and asks you to accompany her home. I can say with absolute confidence that she will get you to follow like a dog on a very, very short leash. Now imagine if the situation were reversed . You'd still be the dog, but dear me, where's that bloody leash gone to? Exactly. It's not a dickey dick world we live in gents. Wake up and smell the bloody tampons (no pun intended). The truth is, boys are an easy bunch to decipher. We're like apes. We only ever want one thing. Give to us what we want...
