Quite a mixture of movies here...from action-packed movies to comedy. I like Pelham and Inglourious Basterds the best. the ugly truth, The proposal and Imagine That comes close. Maiden Heist and Funny People is okie. And then there is the rest.

Movies have been a part of my life since I don't know when. Maybe while growing up at Kg (Kampung) Melati Burut. I think it all began there. They use to have a mini theater for each village (kampung) and every Saturday night they will be a movies for all the villagers to see. Some walk as far as a or 2 miles away to come and watch these movies. That is how I grew up loving all those Western Spagetti movies and James Bond movies.

Since then, I have always loved watching movies. In my spare time (which is very rare) I would sit and watch 2 or 3 movies in a row. I am not very particular abut what movies I prefer to watch. I watch quite a wide variety of movie genres. I even watch foreign movies if they are really good. And I will go even if it 15 miles away. By car of course hahahaha. I remember going to see a James Bond movie and I still remember the name of the movie. The Spy Who loved Me...Starring Roger Moore and Barbara Bach. It was midnight and we were 15 miles out in the boonies. 15 miles away from town. My dad and I drove to town and watch it. At Capitol Cinema on Sin On Road. :)

Some movies I loved to watch again and again like Lord of the Rings trilogy, Transformers 1 and 2. Holiday. Indiana Jones series. James Bond movies ( I have all the James Bond movies in my collection of VCDS), I am now looking for copies of the Wesstern Spagetti movcies starring Clint Eastwood. For A Few Dollars More, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, A Fistful of Dollars. These are the movies that I grew up with. And oh don't forget  John Wayne aka The Duke.
