Love of Siam
Through the ages of mankind, the topic of LOVE is always been a favorite preference of any piece or work of art! It’s because LOVE is one of the foundation why we keep breathing and living in this world full of surprises. No matter what medium it is conveyed, the theme of love always moved people. It’s powerful and it’s domineering.
I stumbled one time reading comments on some sites and learned that many Rainbow advocates and supporters had watched the movie: Love of Siam. It is a Thai romantic-drama film.

Heath Ledger Stole The Dark Knight
Apart from the movies I watched on DVD four boring days ago, the last movie I had watched on the widescreen was The Dark Knight. I’m never a fan of Batman as I always find his superhero costume so stuffy and, for total lack of a better word, frilly and ostentatious. I am more into the superpowered superhero kind than a mere filthy rich dude who’s got the moves and the gadgets.
But this Batman installment I had to see. I must say, I’m glad I did. It took a while for the movie to sink in, though. I am very partial against long movies and The Dark Knight was a good 2 hours and 31 minutes! For exactly that long, I had implored my bladder to hold it so I wouldn’t… To read more CLICK HERE.

Movie: Pathology
The movie was about a pathology doctor who join a clinic. Unfortunately, a group of pathologists in the said clinic was psychotic. Their kind of play was that each one of them killed a human being and the others were made to guess how the victim died. He got involved and had his share of victims as well. That was until his fiancee joined him in his apartment and he realized that he must stopped this madness. He blew up the place where they hung out to get rid of the psychotics. But the leader was able to escape and killed his love. In the end, he got his revenge by paralyzing the leader while his colleague opened his chest. Nice vengeance.
