Ciao Febbraio!

Febbraio in a GIF Ciao Febbraio! Ciao รจ Ba-boo! Cougar t-shirt. Puma shoes.   I didn't even know it was a Leap Year until Feb 29 came today!  Maybe I really am a cat; born a cat and trying to dive in my own kitty litter of an endless Dune sandbox which I had the opportunity to grab in the mall yesterday. I went to the gym early so I can watch the movie Dune on its opening day unhampered by the usual swarm of mall-goers/movie viewers I anticipated would greet me.  As it turned out, only five people were watching the movie and it was the "weekday crowd"  so...  it wasn't really a problem. Anyway, because of this, I had many chances of getting fairly good selfies here and there.   As someone might say, "the early cat catches the worm" :-)  and that I definitely deftly did. I hope.

The Boy and The Heron (2023)

Yesterday, I was able to drive to the mall and watch a Miyazaki Animรฉ movie for the first time on the big screen  and I thought this would be a nice treat for me  as I have always been viewing Studio Ghibli movies with the confines  of my computer monitor at home. Since this is reportedly Miyazaki’s last movie, now 83, his swan song so to speak; it was the perfect time for me to do so. So I went to the theater expecting to go home with a happy Miyazaki Animรฉ movie experience in tow. I wasn’t wrong. I enjoyed the movie and although I am not obliged to say why, I thought having a novel experience in life is always the best experience anyway. So I convinced myself that despite the mixed reviews I have read prior, I will enjoy the movie regardless and that I did! Certainly! Triumph over matter (or material)! Anyway, not veering off the topic, I read a little about or watched some YouTube reviews on how the movie would unfold and although many had said it really wasn’t the bes...

Grave of the Fireflies (1988)

While still on the subject of Fireflies, I just watched this movie and  I can’t peel my eyes off this Studio Ghibli offering from 1988 that I recently downloaded as part of my ongoing effort to view and collect pirated Ghibli animรฉ movies on my iMac computer, yeah, even if this movie was sad as hell. It was just so poignant and so beautifully made, it will definitely make you cry. I didn’t cry of course but that’s beside the point. The animation of both background, which is to say the Japanese countryside and foreground; the characters themselves including the bombs and planes in the distance was superb! The articulation for both Setsuko and Setai, the two siblings principal in this movie was so well executed, I thought if there ever was an award for Best Acting in Animรฉ, I would give this to the two, particularly Setsuko, the four year old orphan who will definitely melt your heart just by watching her. She’s definitely a thing of unadulterated cuteness set in a backdrop of wart...

Firefly (2023)

  Before I retire tonight, I feel I should write something about the last movie I saw in the movie theater as a kind of appreciation and celebration for the year that is now ending. This has been a rather hectic and revelatory year  (blog wise) for me and let's just close it with a happy note with the hopes of more positivity in the coming year. Yesterday, after my early morning gym visit plus a side-trip to Burger King on the way home as a rare breakfast treat, I noticed there was an absence of the usual  traffic particularly perennial in the streets of Manila so I rushed back to the mall to perhaps watch (another) foreign movie but I was faced with the ongoing Metro Manila Film Festival's fare of Filipino movies  presented this time of the year  while deciding and planning on what to watch from my connected home computer. Since it was the only one with a preview clip from my clickthecity movie tab website which I equated with a proper promotion or...
