Slumdog Millionaire

Have you seen the movie? Due to the hallelujah's that I've been hearing about it, I tried to look for a copy from the ever reliable DVD-copy stands. I got one. That was two weeks ago.


I love it! To be fair, I'll watch it again; on the big screen.

In the name of pride, and nationalism, I was never really into watching Chinese or Bollywood films before. In fact, I only saw Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 8 years after it's international success. That was perfection.

Which makes me wonder, ba't hindi tayo makagawa ng ganun? Nagkasya na lang ba tayo sa mga indie films?

Chyng, maganda nga. ndi gaya nung iba na sobrang hyped, pero ndi ko ma-aapreciate.

nagsisintemyento yung kaibigan ko na nakapanood na nito... bakit daw di naisip ng pinoy yung ganyang movie. im not sure what he meant about that since di ko pa napapanood.

astig nga ang slumdog millionaire. i didnt like it because of the contest. what i like the most there is the relationship of the two brothers. it was a bit challenging yet blood is indeed thicker than water.

Ambo, ipapalabas kaya to sa mga sinehan dito?

Lucas, dami niya nominations eh. Klan ba Oscars? hehe

The Dong, would you believe the kids are amateurs? Kinuha lang din daw sila dun s slum areas ng India. Instead of cash, scholarship bayad sa kanila.
