My Activities for Weeks 3rd and 4th of June 2016

Things I did in last two weeks while being bedridden:

a) Watched Two of Johnny Depp's most recent movies (not that wonderland one) : Black Mass (A Must Watch) and Donald J. Trump's Art of Dealing (If you wanna watch how Depp could possibly look like Donald Trump......if you go with my words, he has absolutely killed it)

b) Watched 'Zootopia'.........it's surprisingly good!!!!

c) Watched 'Salt n Pepper' (Malyalam) and Sairat (Marathi): Both are certificates to the fact that how good our regional cinema is doing!!!

d) Watched FAN.....why because Pakistanis loved it......I didn't get the logic but Shah Rukh as Gaurav Chandna was fantastic and unmissable!!!!

e) Watched Game of Thrones last two episodes....immensely satisfying television.....couldn't complain......couldn't be more overjoyed!!!! (Hope to follow on this one later)

f) Read tonnes of articles on Brexit and yes, it did happen!!!!

g) Watched Copa America Final (my first major football tournament final in entire lifetime) and Messi sadly retired but Chile executed its strategy of man-marking Messi perfectly.....Credit must go to Chile and we got to see "MEXIT'!!!!

See you with more!!!!!

P.S. Hoffman & Joaquin Phoenix: The Master

My infatuation with the movies is well known but my involvement with the actors and their characters is even more heartwarming. There are innumerable movies that I saw simply because they featured my favorite actors, however they themselves were not great. Examples could be infinite, however for the sake of this article I'll have to produce something here. Anger Management for Jack Nicholson (boy, isn't he a legend?), Swing Vote for Kevin Costner, Snatch for Brad Pitt, Legends of the Fall (Brad Pitt), Leon: The Professional, Immortal Beloved, Bram Stroker's Dracula, State of Grace & Prick up your ears; all for Gary Oldman (mind you, he is a chameleon). Meanwhile, I started accumulating some of the finest performances by some of the legendary actors of all time. Very recently, as anyone who follows me regularly knows, I grew very much fond of the craft and artistry of Daniel Day-Lewis. He is a fine, fine actor whose study and impersonation of a character is often pictur...

A Monumental 30-years Wait for Premier League Title is Finally Over for Liverpool

Finally, yeah finally. Liverpool, my beloved lads in Reds conquered the England. 30 years. It's been a long wait but this title run was worth the wait..... From the bottlers of 2013-14 to the one point loser of 2018-19, to the Champions of 2019-20; it's been a remarkable story I am chasing after since 2004-05 and I have seem many come and go but Liverpool's RED stuck to me and Jurgen Klopp's mentality monsters just bulldozed their way through the English Premiere League title after 30 years in such a way that it seemed it was never ever far away from our grasp. Manchester United, Manchester City, Everton, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur; look away now, guys.....this moment is ours to savour. There was a time when you laughed at us thinking how in hell Liverpool became 18 times champions of English Football bit this sweet 19th will remind you for a long, long time how we became 18-time English Champions at the first place. A huge shout-out to my man, Steven Ge...

Film Essay: Room (2015)

This is an appreciation post for Oscars Best Feature Film Nominee, the number 7th, Room (2016). Every once in a while in English-speaking world, a courageous director comes up with an audacious project that blows your mind away and you just couldn't fathom what you really experienced. These words might sound hollow if I am going to describe the authenticity of Room (2015). Whatever I shall be writing hereafter shall in no way do justice to the brilliance of this movie and I cannot possibly come up with any more adjectives to ornament it for they all would fall short. So let me narrate you the experiences of my fellow colleagues who are more popular, widely read and certainly more accomplished than me: Rotten Tomatoes: Led by incredible work from Brie Larson and Jacob Tremblay, Room makes for an unforgettably harrowing – and undeniably rewarding – experience. Richard Roeper (Chicago Sun-Times) : The most impressive piece of filmmaking I've seen in 2015, and one of the best...
