Movies Again!

This post and the previous post is dedicated to movie enthusiasts like me. I am unleashing my strong liking for movies in this post.Hope you enjoy!!

My most favorite genre : Diaspora
I have watched all the popular diaspora movies, such as Monsoon Wedding, Bend It like Beckam and Hyderabad Blues.

My second most favorite genre : Mystery Thrillers
I love movies that keep me on the edge of the seat with suspense and twists.

My least favorite genre : Science Fiction
I don't like science fictions at all. I am not a kind of person who would appreciate machines, technology, discoveries etc (that's the reason why I skip most of the Hollywood movies)

Here goes the list of my favorite movies:

English
  1. Sound Of Music
  2. My Fair Lady
  3. Home Alone
  4. Sixth Sense
  5. Titanic
  6. Omen
Diaspora
  1. Monsoon Wedding
  2. Hyderabad Blues
  3. Bend It Like Beckham
Tamil
  1. Mouna Raagam(my all time favorite)
  2. Anbe Shivam
  3. Vetri Kodi Kattu
Hindi
  1. Chak De! India
  2. Guru
  3. Parineeta
  4. Fashion

@ Lancelot: appo neenga kuduthu vachathu avalavuthan......make some other genre movie and be privileged to get that reviewed in my blog:) hey, by the by, what is your field of specialization? Masscom, viscom or elctronic media? I did masscom in my post graduation.

@karthik: I heard that Happening is good, but am yet to watch it. Sixth sense is actually a very gud movie compared with other movies by Manoj Knight shyamlan...I slept while watching his Lady in the water.... hmmn you seem to have quite a good taste for movies....

Hi Lancelot!You are a lawyer?? I thought you will be a student.....I just can't believe that you are not a student:) however, it's quite normal for other professionals to take up film making for sheer passion and creativity.... But you know i am completely out of that profession....I appreciate and enjoy watching good movies....that's all.I am into elearning profession now.........

Lancelot said...

Poorna said...

Anyways, I am partially right....I can give myself 5 points for thinking that you are a student :) What kind of projects yaar? you know, I afraid that I will lack the technical expertise because It's been quite sometime since i finished my post graduation and I have lost touch completely....
