Going GaGa!



All of the below were overlapping soooo much! I was thiiiiiiiiiiiis close to cracking! 
: Oooooooo

Going GaGa.... without earning millions by singing :P
Exhausted n sleep deprived me....
Don't ask what I wrote in my pharma test... that paper will be of use, solely when it's recycled!!
What I needed, was some rest, relaxation..... a TRIP!
And ooooh yeaaaaaaaaaaaah got JUST that! (Come to think of it me n my buds stayed awake most of the time, so sleep deprivation persisted for another 27 hours!!)
Trip details coming sooon :)
But before that, here's to not going bonkers!


Nearly me..... well minus the tux!

Elementary my dear Watson


Ever had that feeling of watching a movie and just jumping into it? Or wanting to replace a film’s hero with yourself? You know, making witty one liners, delivering epic dialogues, ducking at the right time in a fight, punching you’re nemesis in the face and watching them fall flat in front of you, standing up valiantly to adversary, being mocked at it at first but then saving the day and getting applauded by the whole world at the end…

Yeahh, has an appeal doesn’t it.


I felt the exact way when I saw Sherlock Holmes. It’s a GREAT pic, with awesome acting by Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. Apart from the scary occult-ish stuff of the villain (I’ve seen The Arrivals, so it really spooked me), the movie was really fun… witty humour mixed with some super action shots!!

Bravery is something I really admire. It’s the best thing. Hence, my liking for movie characters like Maximus in Gladiator, LOTR’s Frodo, Sam, Aragon. Isn’t it awesome, AWESOME, to look at your (and in every film scenario, the world’s too) ultimate adversary in the eye, stand up for the good side, to be able to inspire hope and bravery in others when no one else can… to seem weak materially and in numbers, but strong at heart and pure in desire, to be driven with an unconquerable passion that there’s some good in this world and it’s worth fighting for (Samwise Gamjee, LOTR)… to have that ultimate battle, and have an ultimate win.

I'd do anything for that.    

Bravery and humour are in plentiful amount in Holmes as far as this film goes. Plus that loveable pinch of eccentricity (which I can relate to :P) makes roles like Holmes and Jack Sparrow surreal for me. It would be great to be able to do them!  
 
Hmmm
So what should one prefer?
Monotony in life…taking it to be a blessing in disguise… free from action that brings catastrophe with it, recognition that comes hand in hand with loss…?

Or how about it? A cool hero acclaimed for your wit, solving crime, getting into life threatening situations and worming your way out of them?

Fantasy can seem so attractive at times, no? ;D

Or how about an amalgam? Bravery and witty humour can be done in real life too can’t they? It’s all about grasping an opportunity when it’s thrown at you and showing your worth. Fantasy can be made into fact. Fiction can be for real. After all, impossible is nothing says Muhammad Ali. He, being a perfect example of true life bravery+ wit, would know.

Russell Crowe... is there any1 better???


I've played my russell crowe dvd so many times, that it's bound to 'pigal'... the disc is always burning hot when I finish with it. But hey...it is justified..... Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind and Cinderella Man... they're just MASTER pieces; awe-inspiring, beautiful stories, with great effects and out-of-the-world acting, that always leave you begging for a re-play.
And the main attraction himself......(drum roll)......... Russell Crowe!!!!!!!!!!

The BEST ACTOR THERE IS IN THE WORLD (Anyone disagreeing?? Ahem... it was nice knowing you pal... care to say your last words?), with every performance breathtaking, every frame that he's in just sooo captivating, every word so believable, and where words aren't spoken, leave it to the tender facial expressions and incredible eyes to speak volumes....:D yup this RC fan can go on n on...
And the films themselves, being stories of a hero's tough walk through life, ALWAYS-its guaranteed- touch you. Be it the story of Maximus, a loyal Roman general forced to seek revenge as a gladiator, or of John Nash, the schizophrenic Maths genius, or James Braddock, a boxer of the great depression era. Every film is packed with thrill, suspense, action but most of all raw human emotions that are bound to leave even the toughest, teary-eyed.

So if there's anyone who hasn't had a taste of RC's acting... go and see Cinderella Man or Gladiator. If you ever feel down in life, feel -less amused ;P these motivating RC films would be just what the doc-or at least this predoc- ordered. Like them, then join my RC club. And if you don't, well it was nice knowing you... now where's my 12inch Swiss knife... oh there it is...;D
