Explaining the Top Fifteen Favourite Movies

8:15 p.m.

Favourite movies:

1. American Psycho. 97%

Christian Bale at his finest. A woman director. Mentions Sri Lanka. Better than back to the future, they mention Trump: approved by Ivanka and Jared. It's larger than life. I love the soundtrack. It exposes how flawed people are, how corrupt society is, and how, we are the psychopaths. I love the dialogue, I love the acting, I love the violence, I love the violence, I love the bloody violence. It's better than all the James Bond movies. It's more real than any other movie.

2. Godfather Part 1. 95%

Needs no explanation. A wonderful cast, with excellent chemistry. A story about how family, reality, it outweighs any bullshit in life. The message this movie delivers, even today, is haunting, this is why, I feel it deserves Oscars year after year because it shadow dwarfs new movies which have no soul, no meaning, except movies like Fast and Furious, that still don't compete with it. It's more meaningful than The Matrix.

3. Scarface. 94%

I love the message. The acting is exceptionally good. It's a lesson on how drugs are sold by very bad guys, and that legalization and being sensible, is the only answer. Just like Thilanga, even Tony, he demanded, that he will never kill a man when the wife is travelling, apparently, according to a rat Bada Mahinda who was probably inventing lies, but also to never kill women and children. The way Tony said he's got his word and balls, and he won't break them for anyone. It was legendary. Greater than what it means to be a man than Fight Club. This was why cinema was invented, it was just such a magnificent performance, like filming Jesus 2,000 years ago. Like filming Moses part the red sea, many years ago.

4. Pulp Fiction. 93%

Very well written. The poetry is beautiful. It's a work of genius. This one, it can easily beat 90% of the IMDb top 200 movies of all time.

5. Don Juan DeMarco. 92%

It's a masterpiece. It's the best performance by Marlon Brando.

6. Like Mike. 90%

The story of strong, black character leads, helping an orphan. The story is beautiful. It's an underrated masterpiece. The music is very good. I like the acting.

7. Zombieland. 88%

Double Tap!!

A lot of fun! Very clever, simple story.

8. The Longest Yard. 85%

Nelly -- Fly Away!

The best soundtrack ever. It's a better movie than Shawshank Redemption.

9. The Purge. 84%

Very exciting. Dystopia.

10. Shrek. 83%

Narrative structure is beautiful. I like the soundtrack. The music is beautiful. I like how the villain is the hero.

11. Jurassic Park 1. 82%

I never felt the way, I felt, when i saw those dinosaurs for the first time.

12. The Hateful Eight. 80%

The Ennio Morricone music. The foul racist language. The character arcs.

13. Sweeney Todd. 77%

The revenge fantasy. Justice. The black humor, meat pies. I love the music.

14. Charlie+Chocolate Factory. 75%

The character arc. The acting. The story of giving an empire to a good soul. Rewarding good character.

15. Jesus Christ Superstar. 72%

The music. Beautiful music. I memorized the songs. I love this.

The image shows a close-up of a brown leather wallet lying on a white fabric surface, likely a bed or a couch. The wallet features prominently embroidered text in bold black letters that reads "BAD MOTHER FUCKER." The text is centered and stands out due to its contrasting color and the texture of the leather. The leather appears slightly worn, suggesting it might be well-used or intentionally distressed for aesthetic purposes. The stitching around the edges of the wallet is visible, and the overall lighting is even, providing a clear view of the texture and color of the materials. This style of wallet is reminiscent of a popular cultural reference, which adds a playful or bold statement to the item. The setting appears casual and relaxed, given the soft fabric background.

Quentin Tarantino's wallet!!!

The image depicts a scene from the film "Pulp Fiction" displayed on a television screen in a cozy bedroom setting. The TV shows a tense moment in a diner where one character stands on a table pointing a gun, while another leans in to talk to someone seated. The background features diner decor with red booths and patterned walls, typical of the film's retro style. The room itself is dimly lit, giving it an intimate and relaxed atmosphere. In the foreground, there are unmade bedsheets, suggesting someone is lying down to watch the movie. A closet with hanging clothes is visible to the right of the TV, and there's a partially visible poster on the wall to the left featuring a historical figure. Overall, the setting feels personal and lived-in, creating a contrast between the tranquil environment and the intense movie scene.

This is a beautiful scene. It's in Samuel L Jackson's MasterClass on Acting. He does a practice workshop on it.

A Thorough Toothbrushing, Melting Chocolate and Little Miss Sunshine

1:30 a.m.

My mum got me Reach brand toothbrushes. I brushed my teeth. It was perhaps, excluding a visit to the dentist, the best, most thorough cleaning of my teeth, ever.

To celebrate, I kept 2 x small bits of Cadbury milk chocolate in my mouth. I don't bite it. I keep it to melt in my mouth, just like that 50 Cent song I can't remember.

Candy Shop.

██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

I am watching Little Miss Sunshine. I will likely sleep soon.

Write my own script. I think watching these movies studiously, it helped me get the craft of movie making down.

I like it when chocolate melts. It lasts longer in my mouth.

I think this guy in the movie is suicidal.

I will sleep soon.
