[TV Series] How I Met Your Mother 2005-2014 #5

So as you know HIMYM tells a story of Ted Mosby in the year of 2030 recounting his story about how he met the mother to his future children. He started the story on his 20s living in Manhattan along with his witty group of friends. Its very last episodes has just ended around a week ago and it's been one of my fave sitcom ever so, in order to give.. say.. an ode, I feel like writing more about its 'controversial' ending. 

How I Met Your Mother (2005-2014) 
IMDb Rating: 8.6/10
Creator: Carter Bays, Craig Thomas
Starring: Josh Radnor, Jason Segel, Neil Patrick Harris, Alyson Hannigan, Cobie Smulders
Nominated for 2 Golden Globe Awards for Neil Patrick Harris as Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role (2009-2010)

Idk how to to put my feelings properly, I've been sort of in between of love and hate. Well, slightly more on the hate actually. Because it feels like it isn't a proper goodbye ending. Like it's been forced to end so suddenly. I mean, does it matter that there are millions of viewers out there been loyally watching it for years and somewhat grow up with the series, o dear writers of HIMYM? And as well dat wise quotes the gang's been babbling about which we've taken them very seriously as an enlightenment in life? The whole ending thing was such disgrace (sorry cant help the drama!).

SPOILER ALERT

Since the last bits of season 9 moves too slow and it basically explains all about Robin's wedding, I thought that it would be nice of you guys to make at least one more season for that two last episodes. We're all left perplexed by so many loose ends here. Like how the hell did Barney and Robin ended up split (I mean, specifically)? Now what've all that Robin Barney crap been doing all along? Have they turned into an actual form of 'bullcrap'? And yesss we'd kill to know more about Robin's journey being a news reporter, more from Ted's marriage and his children, Barney's sudden fatherhood (for sure!!!!), Marshall's being a judge supreme and anything Lily's been doing now? Also the last but not least, the mother. I think it's so cruel to save her only for a season and then throw her in front of a cancer bus and bring back Ted Robin. (someone has tweeted this before in #HIMYMFinale and it sounds soooo sarcastically hurts but at the same time feels... true)

The gang hanging out at MacLarens Pub.

Anyway, no matter how much I couldn't bear to loathe, there's still love left for HIMYM. It was indeed... an epic ending. I've never and I bet nobody has ever had any slight of thought, whatsoever, that it would end like that. The clues are there lying in front of our eyes but we're too busy wondering how the mother would be like. Like the very first clue, Ted told the story right when he first met Robin and how he's always been there for Robin at any circumstances. It's a shame we need Ted's daughter to help us putting the jigsaw clues back together. But then again, if it supposed to end like this then why titled it with "How I Met Your Mother" at first place?

Regardless all these forever unanswered questions in our heads, lastly, thanks for being there dear HIMYM. To somehow being our faithful source for soul searching and guided us to get through 20s with your wise, thoughtful dialogues. Also that surreal gagssssss we couldn't help to laugh so hard we needed to hit pause to continue laughing. And the pappapaparara opening song, legend-wait-for-it-dary Barney, doppelgangers, suit-up, slap bets and everything!  
Ya'll be missed.

Oh here's a clip of the infamous Let's Go To The Mall by Robin Sparkles which I think was such a mindblowing side of Robin Scherbatsky :')


Final verdict: 8.5/10

As many has expected, Jared Leto and Cate Blanchett has been one and only candidate to take Oscars home. I was rooting for Meryl Streep as well but I guess Oscars members must have thought, "Meryl had too much Oscars already". Uhm well not really, since Cate actually did superb on Blue Jasmine!

While not as many has expected, Lupita Nyong'o happens to beat Jennifer Lawrence. I actually prefer Lupita to win. I mean, not that JLaw failed at it, both did great and got their own charisma but if I have to choose then, Lupita Nyong'o definitely got better charm. Amateurly speaking, Lupita had gone through suffering as a miserable slave, a lot worse than JLaw as a lonely wife who desires attention. LOL but it happened right? 

And here comes for the internet highlight, Oscar statue seemed to love being held by Matthew McConaughey rather than Leonardo DiCaprio. If only Dallas Buyers Club had not been released in 2013, I believe Mr. Oscar would gladly sit by Leo's bedside table. I guess he just got unlucky because everytime he got nominated, his other competitors were actually somehow slightly better than him. And it happened again this time as McConaughey is indeed dead unbeatable.

Here for more important moments of Oscars 2014.

Anyhow, so saaad that not a single awards had been taken home for The Wolf of Wall Street. Instead, Gravity won most of nominations and the best of all category went to 12 Years of Slave. It's good I guess as I remember indeed weeping a bit at 12 Years of Slave's ending. I got my emotions carried on by the whole plot. Though I solely wanted to watch it because of Benedict Cumberbatch and...... Shooot! I haven't reviewed it yet. So furthermore on next post then :p

Since I haven't really watched the show yet and I only youtubed some of acceptance speeches, so I'll best leaving this post with series of Oscars Buzzfeed links recap. Aaaand probably some of its best memes. ALSO MY REVIEW PROPHECY JUST GOT REAL (SORRY FOR CAPSLOCKING).

Ellen DeGeneres' epic selfie.

This is how Internet mourns for Leo.

WHAT I SAID ON PREVIOUS POST LITERALLY HAPPENED.

BRB FISTPUMPING GLORIOUSLY

PS: Thank you Buzzfeed and Oscars.go.com, smoooch!

Dallas Buyers Club (2013) #4

Dallas Buyers Club (2013) 
IMDb Rating: 8.0/10
Director: Jean-Marc Valée
Writer: Craig Borten, Melisa Wallack
Starring: Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Jared Leto
Nominated for 6 Oscars including Best Picture, Best Leading Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Film Editor, Best Makeup and Hairstyling, and Best Original Screenplay.

Ron Woodroof's (Matthew McConaughey) life of getting high in drugs, sex, alcohol and gambling turns upside down after diagnosed with AIDS and given only 30 days to live. He moves on his life and begins to do some researches for his sickness that led to regime of medications that could prolong his life. Aware that he can take advantage of it, he then overcomes his homophobic to partner up with a transgender and also an HIV positive, Rayon (Jared Leto). Together they start selling the drugs to other AIDS survivors. By the time passing by he realized he's not doing this for the sake of money anymore but the good to help AIDS survivors lives in need. But his righteous attempt meets troubles along the way. His drugs he's carrying hasn't approved by FDA. Now he has to face the fact that his struggling to stay alive is not only for himself anymore but also for the lives of Dallas Buyers Club.

Review
I love the story, it's well-written, rich in values of life and powerful characters, like Woodroof. He has not only transitioned from a rude yet sleazy sex addict into a social hero, but he also sort of handling a secret message. Like somehow, deep down even the utmost douchebag... do have hearts and a selflessness even if it's only a tiny bit. For what he's done is superbly inspiring. Especially that scene when Woodroof gave his last speech like a ghetto to a private FDA-AIDS survivors meeting. Just... snap.



Aside from the story, both McConaughey and Leto has pulled their best effort not only physical-wise (just look how unbelievably skinny they are, it's like they're physically ready to die) but also acting-wise. McConaughey appears to be drowned deep into his character resulting Woodroof to have a strong straight-forward quality. While Leto here as a transgender depicting a warm-hearted fragile Rayon that I believe everyone will fall for her at first sight. Hence, later at Oscars party, they should take a selfie together holding their own Oscars and post it on Instagram... I mean they deserve it!

PS: I do still hope that Leo gets an Oscar (just like the rest of the internet), but it seems a little dubious considering his other competitor like McConaughey. Then again, Oscars is like a box of chocolate, you'll never know who will take em home until you watch it yourself.

Final verdict: 8.5/10

The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) #3

The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) 
IMDb Rating: 8.5/10
Director: Martin Scorsese
Writer: Terence Winter (screenplay), Jordan Belfort (book)
Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill, Matthew McConaughey
Nominated for 5 Oscars including Best Picture, Best Leading Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay.

The film focused mainly on the rise and fall of an american broker, Jordan Belfort's (Leonardo DiCaprio) eccentric life. On his younger poor days he started his very own brokerage firm--Stratton Oakmont from scratch by selling worthless stocks on the market. It gains a major success and he becomes richer than ever. Though he obviously realizes he has committed fraud by manipulating stock market, his company gains even more success as well as his wealth, along with his addiction of drugs, hookers, and parties. Blinded by his gleaming glory, he becomes careless and was unaware that his downfall is only waiting to happen. 


Review
Just a quick reminder if you haven't seen this film: There were so many nudity and drugs abuse here. So for the sake of averting awkwardness, don't watch it along with your parents or anyone :p. But aside from that, this another masterpiece of Martin Scorsese is pure brilliance. Plain great and actually pretty entertaining. It takes almost 3 hours but you won't notice that since the plot flows quite fast like bam bam bam with its dialogs, scenes and everything. Also I want to take a standing ovation to Leo because he did a great job. He's gone just completely... megalomaniac. His acting seems better. It's seen that he has pulled his best effort for this role. Like that time when he did such passionate speech in front of his employees. I can even see his veins showing from his neck as he speaks. So I am pretty sure he actually got a shot at taking home his very first Oscar this time. He just gotta have more luck than the other nominees.



By the way, The Wolf of Wall Street also reminds me of Leo's previous film with Steven Spielberg, Catch Me If You Can which I think they have a lot in common by storywise--success by deceit.

Source here.

And here's a super awesome--shot in the head--inspirational quote from the book by Jordan Belfort in real life (which I've just known by watching this film lol).

Final verdict: 8.6/10

Nebraska (2013) #2

Nebraska (2013) 
IMDb Rating: 8.0/10
Director: Alexander Payne
Writer: Bob Nelson
Starring: Bruce Stern, Will Forte, June Squibb, Bob Odenkirk
Nominated for 6 Oscars including Best Picture, Best Leading Actor, Best Leading Actress, Best Cinematography, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay.

Woody Grant (Bruce Stern), a senior man with alcohol issues insists going to Lincoln, Nebraska presuming he's about to get his "a million dollar prize" from a coupon letter. Realizing how badly his dad wants to go pursuing his sham winning, his son, David (Will Forte), takes a long journey from his house in Montana to Lincoln just for him. While on their way there, Woody gets his head thumped so he has to take some rests for a few days. David then stops by at Hawthorne which isn't as far to visit his relatives where Woody had spent his youth. His fake winning then becomes a talk of the town and he has to deal with people who wants to take advantage of it.

Review
This is a black white and mostly quiet film though it doesn't feel like it. I was of course doubt it since most b/w films were boring. But Nebraska didn't as well. I guess it's that folk town vibes and the music that makes it homey. First time I saw the credits, that folk-ish melody stuck quite well in my mind. Thanks to Mark Orton, unsung genius behind those pretty music. Also, Woody reminds me of my old grannie who was pretty much just like Woody. Like when she sleeps with mouth opened, or those typical old people conversation.



I could say Nebraska was a lovely film. Once you reached the end and found out the reason why Woody insisted going to Lincoln to take his a million dollar prize, you'll definitely go... aww and start sobbing a bit. (Well it works for me since i'm pretty sentimental :p).

Hence, final verdict: 8.2/10

[TV Series] Breaking Bad 2008-2013 #1

Well the actual series ended around September 2013 on AMC. At that time, I had no idea Breaking Bad even existed. Then when I moved to a new dorm back in Bintaro and I basically got nothing to do but sleep, eat, repeat.. I browsed some series on IMDb just to kill my time yet I found Breaking Bad sitting at the top of most rated tv series. I was very interested in watching it and I was this close buying their pirated all season DVDs on Blok-M. But I thought I just need to get home soon and turn on my wifi so I could download them all on piratebay... free of charge! ;)

Breaking Bad (2008-2013) 
IMDb Rating: 9.6/10 <---- I KNOW RIGHT!
Creator: Vince Gilligan
Writer: Chad Hayes, Carey Hayes
Starring: Bryan Cranston, Aaron Paul, Anna Gunn, Dean Norris, RJ Mitte
Won 2 Golden Globe Awards including  
- Best Television Series - Drama and  
- Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series - Drama, Bryan Cranston

Walter White (Bryan Cranston) is a loving family man and a brilliant chemist who unfortunately lives in a not-so-equally-brilliant wealth. For a nobel prize honoured in crystallography chemistry, he only works as a high school chemistry teacher. Overqualified, indeed. But then bad luck doesn't stop right there, he was also diagnosed for stage 3 lung cancer. Having realised the fact that he's going to die soon and his salary as a chemistry teacher still can't manage to secure his family finance, he decides to cook crystal methamphetamine with his ex- student, Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul), whom he met at a drug raid. Walter uses his skill as a scientist making purest (yet highly demanded) methamphetamine to ever existed in the drug market. Producing this meth, though has been extraordinary profitable, doesn't come out easy for Walt as his DEA agent brother-in-law, Hank Schrader (Norris), often interferes his business. He has to face a greater challenge, not only to keep away his identity as the most wanted, Heisenberg, from his DEA brother-in-law and his family, but also to develop better strategies against the cartel.

Review
Once I watched the first season, I couldn't stop it really. I kept eating the whole season then moved to next.. unstoppably. I strongly recommend you guys to watch it bcs it's overly addicting. Technically just like snorting a dash of meth (ok sorry this is too much). It doesn't look like it's gonna bore you anyway since... I know, first time you read the short synopsis you'll be like, ain't nobody got time to watch a helluva heavy hourly based series. Well, it's not gonna happen bcs Breaking Bad is fairly light-medium one plus the plot makes you wanna go and go watch the next eps without even realizing it.

Walt and Jesse making crystal blue meths.

Now when you finished watching all seasons you'll feel like a part of you had gone away, and you're left clueless abt what to do the next day. Just prepare to feel like an absolute shit at that day. But at the same time feeling so... I don't know how to express this but you'll moan to yourself that this has been a great ride watching Breaking Bad. You'll feel sad that this is over but yet happy because IT HAPPENS. It's just.... so gooooood you got to watch it asap. (sorry for being overly persuasive, can't hold it :p)

Smashed up crystal meth candy.

A little trivia, you're gonna want to make that crystal meth legally once you watch Breaking Bad. I mean I'm talking... crystal meth candy. Here's a blog from sugarhero.com to show you how to do it. It looks so yum, isn't it?

Lastly, final verdict: (since nothing in this world is perfect, so...) 9.8/10

2014 Oscars Haul

2014 Oscars is one step away and just yesterday, the whole nominations was announced. I was a bit surprised bcs I thought it will be aired by May, instead it turns out March 2nd on ABC. As always, Golden Globes took the prophecy first on who and which will get the nominations. After reading series of news out there, 12 Years of Slave and American Hustle stole the top prizes of Globes on Sunday night, including best motion picture drama for 12 Years of Slave and best comedy or musical motion picture for American Hustle.

While actress throne was given to Cate Blanchett on her role on Blue Jasmine, and Amy Adams for American Hustle. Not quite shocking, right? But this happens quite unlikely for the best actor. Matthew McConnaughey won it for his role on Dallas Buyers Club instead of Chiwetel Ejiofor who was overly hyped by many to be the one who will take it home. On the other hand Leonardo DiCaprio won the Globe too for The Wolf of Wall Street. (I secretly wished Leo to win the Oscar this time, I just.. well he should win it at least once :) ).

There's one missing point I can't even believe. Tom Hanks on his role for Captain Philips didn't make it through Oscar nominee for best actor. Strange indeed.

And btw, not a single of them I've ever watched, so I can't really judge which and who deserves the Oscar. But I am positively suuure though internet has spreaded that 2014 is the worst year of Oscars, and how there are so many speculations out there.... all the nominees do, have the same opportunity to win.

The 2014 Film Review Challenge

I neeeeed this for the longest time possible and my fella here, Hamidah, just pointed it out for me. She out of the blue had posted a very intriguing offer on my facebook wall which was a 2014 film review challenge.

It'd be fun to be challenged and keep a track of our films that we've watched so far for a year. So at the end of the year we'll know exactly how many and how do we feel everytime we watch em. And anyway, it's good to keep on practicing our writing skill. Then I said, challenge accepted!

Though it is completely personal challenge, if any of you guys wanted to be part of this, then come and join. Here's short how to below.


1. Write a blog title with the following format:
     [Title] [Released Year] [#Consecutive number of the film you've watched] e.g.:
     American Hustle (2013) #1
     12 Years A Slave (2014) #2
2. Write a basic information of the film, consisting:
    - Title (Released Year)
    - IMDb Rating or Rotten Tomatoes Rating (or any film rating you consider legit)
    - Director
    - Writer
    - Starring (Actors/ Actresses)
3. Write a simple plot of the film.
4. Write anything you want regarding the film, it can be:
    - how was the plot/ the acting
    - how did the film make you feel and why
    - your favourite part/ scenes of the film (avoid spoilers as min as possible & no story twists)
    - adding a youtube trailer or any trivia/ facts will be fun
    - how do you recommend to others, is it yay/nay to watch
    - lastly, your very own rating in 10/10 basis

I already had a quite long list waiting to be reviewed soon. From now on it will most probably be written short and simple. Considering that the most important thing is to give a straight to the point message about how the film left impressions in you. Was it worth watching or not and such.

So I guess that's it and I hope this will be a total doable challenge to all of us.
Good luck and happy watching! ;)
