The Most Exciting War Booster In Movie

1. The Chronicles of Narnia : The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe
Maybe it's the way all these weird creatures circling the Stone Table, or maybe the way the White Witch killed Aslan, but it really makes me want to take out the sword or spread my bat wings or whatever weird creatures do when she said these words.
The White Witch : Tonight, the deep magic will be appeased, but tomorrow, we will take Narnia, FOREVER!

2. The Matrix : Reloaded
If you living in cave, half naked with most of the people are sweaty, greasy and wearing torn clothes, you will definitely fall for Morpheus speech and go to war.
Morpheus : Believe me when I say we have a difficult time ahead of us. But if we are to be prepared for it, we must first shed our fear of it. I stand here, before you now, truthfully unafraid. Why? Because I believe something you do not? No, I stand here without fear because I remember. I remember that I am here not because of the path that lies before me but because of the path that lies behind me. I remember that for 100 years we have fought these machines. I remember that for 100 years they have sent their armies to destroy us, and after a century of war I remember that which matters most... We are still here! Today, let us send a message to that army. Tonight, let us shake this cave. Tonight, let us tremble these halls of earth, steel, and stone, let us be heard from red core to black sky. Tonight, let us make them remember, THIS IS ZION AND WE ARE NOT AFRAID! 

3. The Lord Of The Ring : The Return Of The King
I like it when Aragorn talk to these dead warriors.
Aragorn: I summon you to fulfill your oath. 
King of the Dead: None but the king of Gondor may command me. 
[Swings sword; Aragorn blocks him with the sword Anduril] 
King of the Dead: That blade was broken! 
[Aragorn takes him by the throat] 
Aragorn: It has been remade. 
[Aragorn releases the King of the Dead; pause] 
Fight for us... and regain your honor. What Say You!

Burnt By The Sun, 1994 - Russia

The film opens in 1936, just before Joseph Stalin's Great Purge. Comdiv Sergei Kotov (Nikita Mikhalkov), an Old Bolshevik and decorated hero of the Russian Civil War, is enjoying life in his country dacha. Alongside him is his wife, Maroussia (Ingeborga Dapkūnaitė), their daughter, Nadia, and Maroussia's large and eccentric family of Chekhovian aristocrats. The charismatic Kotov, relaxed in his semi-retirement, is held in awe by all who surround him.

Into this idyllic setting walks Mitya (Oleg Menshikov), an ex-nobleman and veteran of the anti-communist White Army. In addition, Mitya was also Maroussia's fiance before his sudden disappearance in 1923. He is joyfully embraced by the family and introduced to Nadia as "Uncle Mitya."

The White Ribbon, 2009 - German

The setting is the fictitious Protestant village of Eichwald, Germany between July 1913 and August 1914, where the pastor, the doctor and the baron rule the roost over women, children and peasant farmers. The puritanical pastor leads confirmation classes and gives his pubescent children a guilty conscience over trivial offenses. He has them wear white ribbons as a reminder of the innocence and purity from which they have strayed. When his son confesses to impure touching, the pastor has the boy’s hands tied to the bed frame. The doctor, a widower, treats the village children kindly but sexually humiliates his housekeeper (the local midwife) and takes advantage of his teenage daughter at night. The baron, who is the lord of the manor, underwrites harvest festivities for the villagers, many of whom are the immigrant workers in his employ. He may summarily dismiss his twins' nanny Eva for no apparent reason yet defend the integrity of the farmer whose son has taken his revenge on the baron with the destruction of a field of cabbages.

El Bano del Papa, 1988 - Uruguay

It is 1988, and Melo, a Uruguayan town on the Brazilian border, awaits the visit of Pope John Paul II. Numbers begin circulating: hundreds of people will come, no thousands say the media. To the poor citizens of Melo this means pilgrims in need of food and drink, paper flags, souvenirs, and commemorative medals. Brimming with enthusiasm, the locals hope not only for divine blessing but also a small share of material happiness. Petty smuggler Beto is certain that he’s found the best business idea of all: “The Pope’s Toilet”, where the thousands of pilgrims can find relief. 

Beto is thwarted by lack of funds and the local mobile customs enforcement officer. Ultimately the promised "60,000 to 200,000" Brazilians do not materialise. Apparently (in the film's postscript) only 400 Brazilians came, disproportionately served by 387 stalls for food and trinkets. The film makes it clear that the visit was a financial disaster to the town rather than bringing any wealth as promised. Beto has spent his daughter's college fund to no avail, but she forgives him, and at least he has a nice toilet.

watched : the wizard of oz

Spent time with my daughters alone last night, watched Wizard of Oz, rejoices in childhood memories. Hmm...

When a man's an empty kettle he should be on his mettle,
And yet I'm torn apart.
Just because I'm presumin' that I could be kind-a-human,
If I only had heart.
I'd be tender - I'd be gentle and awful sentimental
Regarding Love and Art.
I'd be friends with the sparrows ... and the boys who shoots the arrows
If I only had a heart.

Weird Occasion in Movies

1. Charlie and The Chocolate Factory
I definitely love the part with the Oompa Loompa in this movie. They are toddler size, look the same, expressionless face and they sing!


(Willy Wonka)  I believe they're going to treat us to a little song. It is quite a special occasion, of course. They haven't had a fresh audience in many a moon.

(Oompa Loompa) Augustus Gloop / Augustus Gloop / The great big greedy Nincompoop / Augustus Gloop, so big and vile, so greedy foul and infantile / Come on, we cry, the time is ripe to send him shooting up the pipe / But don't, dear children be alarmed, Augustus Gloop will not be harmed, Augustus Gloop will not be harmed / Although of course we must admit, he will be altered quite a bit / Slowly wheels go round and round, and cogs begin to grind and pound / This greedy brute, this louces ear, is loved by people everywhere, for who could hate or bare a grudge against a luscious bit of fudge? 

2. The Hangover
Everything is hilariously wrong in this movie. It is like a bunch of different people being put together in a weird situation. I'm laughing so hard for this movie. And that nerd guy Alan is so damn funny.


Alan Garner: Hello. How 'bout that ride in? I guess that's why they call it Sin City.
[awkward laughter]
Alan Garner: You guys might not know this, but I consider myself a bit of a loner. I tend to think of myself as a one-man wolf pack. But when my sister brought Doug home, I knew he was one of my own. And my wolf pack... it grew by one. So there... there were two of us in the wolf pack... I was alone first in the pack, and then Doug joined in later. And six months ago, when Doug introduced me to you guys, I thought, "Wait a second, could it be?" And now I know for sure, I just added two more guys to my wolf pack. Four of us wolves, running around the desert together, in Las Vegas, looking for strippers and cocaine. So tonight, I make a toast! 

3. Old School
I probably kill myself if I have friend like Frank. He is more annoying than funny.


Frank: A little housewarming gift.
Mitch: I actually gave this to you for your wedding.
Frank: This model?
Mitch: That exact one.
