  • memorable movie trailers – the crème de la crème

    September 24, 2009

    And finally, we have the very best, the ones that I have and will be playing over and over again, reliving the thrill a million times over.
    #5. Kill Bill

    I was unaware of who Quentin Tarantino was when I saw this trailer . Needless to say, all that changed fairly quickly. This trailer (and/or [...]

    #10. Batman Begins

    Nolan managed to do the impossible – revive a franchise that was almost permanently killed off by one of the worst superhero movie ever made, Batman and Robin. This trailer erased any bad taste left by the previous one, rebooting the franchise in a darker, grittier (and much more realistic) world.

    #15. Star Wars : Episode 1 : The Phantom Menace

    Before you shout ‘Blasphemy!’, let me remind you that this is a list of memorable movie trailers and *not* movies. As forgettable as the movie was, the trailer of Episode One was spectacular, exciting both old and new fans, providing glimpes of the boy [...]

    #20. Rocky Balboa

    Collecting movie trailers is one of the *very* few hobbies that I have (had in a long time). Memorable movie trailers are those which remain enjoyable even after we have seen the movie.

    I need to blog more often. I need to!
    I will attempt to post more often – something, anything. Use this a little more and use Twitter a little less.

  • crumbling inward

    July 23, 2009

    [Note that this is a re-post of a really old blog post of mine (on a secret blog, no less!) ]
    I find myself metamorphosing into something harder and colder. No longer the romantic fool. No longer the playful child who stared awed at the world. No longer the fool who set out to conquer fate [...]

  • i had a dream…

    <geek mode alert!>
    I have been musing a lot lately, regarding what would be the perfect operating system (IMO), or as  close as it could get. Here it is, in a not-so orderly manner, various characteristics, that I would desire, in my “perfect” operating system.
    Kernel
