Zodiac

I am not a fan of horror, thriller, crime movies however I watched this one because it was a real story and Robert Downey Jr. was playing in it... Yeah, it had its moments but I think as a whole it was really an average movie... The end is total disappointment... It is too long and has no ending...

Social Life in New York

I am still not sure if New York is a social city... Sure, people are friendly... Sure, you can have a quick yet detailed conversation with the person who sits right beside you in a coffee house or train (But, that's it. No connections)... Sure, people are in the streets in any time of the day and night thanks to subway... Sure, there are tons of events that you can participate, parties you can have fun, dance, drink etc... No problem so far, right?... Then listen to this... What is it that makes every single person alone in this city?.. Why is everyone talking about being unhappy and alone? Why is everyone going to a coffee place, sitting behind their laptop screens and looking for someone on dating websites?.. Aren't they have a sofa and coffee at home? Of course they do... And we all know that they are out because they want company... Isn't this so ironic !?!?

Hey, leave your laptops at home and talk to each other... And try to accept people as who they are... Being aware of that money, job, or laptops don't bring you happiness is a plus... Let's face that... So we can make a progress (I am not a psychologist, just trying to help by 'making a point without making an enemy-Isaac Newton')... One more by him "We build too many walls and not enough bridges."

Anna Nicole Smith

I was shocked to my very core when I first heard about the death of Anna Nicole Smith... It is not because everything happened in a short period of time or ... She was so young... I still can't believe she is dead because of natural causes ... I was surprised to hear when her son is dead, too... Don't you think it is so weird that two very young human being died in the same family one after the other?..

Yes, I know they were using drugs. I know she was doing this for a long long time... Yes, someone can disagree with my thoughts. Someone can say that she was doing it for a long time and her body just collapsed as a result of the accumulation of those drug's side effects and the devistation of her son's death.... But, if this is the case then how anyone can explain her son Daniel's death... Was he using drugs as long as she was? Were each of them overdosed? So, they just couldn't know how much drugs they should take that they were using for a long time... I don't think so... Let's say Daniel decided to commit suicide while he was visiting his mother in the hospital for a happy event... Then why would Anna Nicole do it? She just had a baby... So on...

As you see I can go on with these kind of questions and I can find another question for any explanation... I think there is too many questions about her and his son's death... I am suspicious that both of them maybe killed... Who did it? I have a conspiracy theory for that... But, I just don't want to accuse someone without any proof... I hope police would digg this indicent more... Is there anyone who can say that I have a sick mind and am hallucinating about this... Am I being paranoiac again? Or is the anyone who think what I think?

Be Aware, Not Be Used

I am, of course, supporting all the non-profit organizations that fights against global warming, aids or works to help kids but I don't like their approach sometimes... I feel like some of these communities are working for a good purpose, but at the same time, they are promoting some commercial organizations... What is the point?... So, I'd say be aware... Are we trying to support an action for a good deed or are we just being used?... Is it all about politics or promoting some businesses?..

Think about it... Do not just join to the herd...

HGTV and Food Channel

If there was a travel channel on my cable that would be in the headline, too... We are using the basic cable... It's because I love to watch movies, sitcoms and all those channels which broadcast shows that I can learn something new or interesting... Do you still ask 'why'?.. I wouldn't be able to leave home at anytime... I don't want to be a couch potato... Plus this city (NYC) is the wrong one for the people who don't want to be social., or live a social life... So, I keep it simple and go to a theatre or rent a movie when I want to...

Let's Get More Familiar with American Culture(!)

Prom: In the United States, a prom, short for promenade, is used to describe a formal dance held at the end of the high school academic year.
Parade: A parade is an organized procession of people along a street, often in costume, and often accompanied by floats or sometimes large lighter-than-air balloons with complex shapes. Parades are held for a wide range of reasons, but are usually celebrations of some kind.
Halloween: Or Hallowe'en is a tradition celebrated on the night of October 31, most notably by children dressing in costumes and going door-to-door collecting sweets, fruit, and other gifts. This is called trick-or-treating, and apart from this there are many other traditional Halloween activities.

Fifth Element

I still remember for the first time I watched "Fifth Element"... I was stunned by it... I am not going to bore you with the plot and a critic of the movie by me, no, you may find its reviews all over the internet... I am just going to share some of my thoughts about it. I loved its music which is by Eric Serra... I tried to find the soundtrack for a long time at the time in Turkey, but couldn't. And after sometime I had it, loved it, listened it all the time... Even though I was fascinated mostly by its music when I watched it first time, yet I loved its energy and artists performances, too...

It is still one of my favorite movies... It has everything in it that I am looking for in a movie... Adventure, action, romance, sci-fi, thriller, even comedy... Of course I am a huge fan of Bruce Willis (Korben Dallas), but despite some people's view, I think Chris Tucker's (Ruby Rhod) performance outstanding in this movie... Well, I find him very funny, he is funny -he is the one who makes "Rush Hour" series fun, isn't he?.. I also have to acclaim Milla Jovovich's performance, though... For me, she is the perfect choice for this role... Of course I'll praise Luc Besson who has managed to pull this together really well to produce an endlessly impressive film. Why am I writing this entry again?.. Heh he... I am watching it right now, for the millionth time... lol ...
