Now Showing.

Not so long ago, I was a movie buff.


From mainstream to indie films, I have watched movies which people would never think I would watch. Like for example, a Spanish comedy-drama with an R rating. (I think that was over sharing.)


Just like writing, I came to a point that I was either lazy or too busy to go watch a movie. I swear I suck at movies now. Recalling 2010, I have only seen one movie in the movie house. (And no, I wasn't even able to watch new movies in pirated DVDs or even downloaded from the internet.) Just one new movie for 2010. How pathetic could I be?


I don't really know why. Maybe I got tired of the same plots. Maybe I was waiting for it to come out on cable or local tv. Maybe I just don't have time to watch movies anymore. It's sad, really.


Tonight, thank you cable TV, I am on my 4th movie. Apparently, the first three are Tagalog movies. The current one is a horror/thriller I am not really fond of. Wala lang, sayang naman binayad sa cable, papanoorin ko na lang.


Four movies in a row is another first for me for 2011. Even if it is on cable. For the past month, my TV time was spent on series, news, MTV, and prolly cartoons. Since none of my favorite shows are airing today, and I am just sick of watching Glee over and over again, I sat down to watch a movie. (Actually I was planning on watching Black Swan but I still can't get around to doing it.)


I have suggested movies for other people to watch. I have made plans to watch certain movies with some people. But I still haven't gone to watching movies. So tonight, aside from rebuilding my music library, I am going to raid Alabang to buy DVDs of movies. (And no, downloading isn't an option for me. I don't have that much patience to wait for a file to download and that would just kill the internet I am sharing with two other users.)


I need movie suggestions. I don't care if they're too cheesy, too scary, to boring or just plain baduy, but I really want to watch movies. A lot of movies. So come on, suggest whatever movie out there should I buy first.
