lights, camera, action!

Hello there, 2008 movies! Movies I watched on the big screen, yay :D

 

Click it for a larger view! ;)

 

It’s obvious that i’m very much into movies and even if I know for a fact that I can easily purchase a pirated copy of these movies for like a dollar (?), I still prefer watching (some) movies on the big screen. It’s a different experience for me. Some movies aren’t really worth watching in the cinema but the regret comes after watching it. Haha :P At least I can warn other people about it so they wouldn’t have to waste their money too.

 

Mom’s luckier though. She has this MTRCB pass which she can use to watch movies for free – anywhere in Manila! She can even bring one companion with her and that person can get in for free as well. Haha!

 

I guess i’m still grateful that movie tickets here aren’t as pricey as those in the US, though. THANK GOD. I’m excited for the 2009 movies! YEAH :D

 

I’m also looking forward to 2009 coz I might be getting myself a new camera! Probably a different version of a Canon Powershot? Or maybe I might just end up saving my money and sticking with the current Ixus camera I have. Hohum.

 

Questions!
Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen?
As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away?
What movies are you looking forward to?
:)

Your mom’s really lucky! I hope I have one like that too. Hahaha. As much as possible, I want to watch it on the big screen. You’ll get the feel of the movie. But sometimes I have no choice. LOL. For the second question, it depends really if we would like to watch the movie all over again or if we were late. Hmmm. And I still don’t know what movies are really good in 2009. Haha.

Maan on December 12, 2008

Wow. That’s a lot. And lucky Mom! Hahaha. I envy her. :D

This can be considered as a tag. Don’t you think? Heehee!

maxrobo on December 12, 2008

That’s a lot of movies Ate Gel! Your mom is super lucky to have that MTRCB pass. Mine is not MTRCB but a movie pass as well, given monthly by my super nice Uncle because he’s working there, 3-4 passes but I always throw the chances away because I give it usually to my dearest cousins who have the whole time in the world to watch movies on the big screen.
Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen? It depends on the movie Ate Gel, I think.
As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away? No. I usually leave when there are only few people left to avoid those “siksikan” blues.
What movies are you looking forward to? New Moon! Hahaha!

Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen?
- Any, as long as I’m not alone watching it. :)
Since last semester (but it started a year ago), my blockmates and I likes to watch movies over the bigscreen during free time. I watch DVDs here at home with my family but we rarely do it now unlike before. Mostly talaga, download. :D

As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away?
- Yes! Hahaha! LOL.

What movies are you looking forward to
- Hmmmm…. I don’t know yet. Haha! My friends are expecting The Terminator 3 though, so maybe that one. :D

Freyah on December 13, 2008

Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen?
- nowadays i prefer watching movies on DVD, at home. It’s so much more comfortable and way way way cheaper! :P I’ll only watch if the movie is really good (ie. Will Smith movies :) )

As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away?
- Depends. Sometimes they have bloopers at the end -who wants to miss that? :P

What movies are you looking forward to? :)
- i honestly have no idea what the up and coming movies are. fill me in?

Diandra on December 13, 2008

I prefer watching films in the comfort of my own home, because then I can get free drinks and snacks and pause it when I need the toilet and stuff like that. Even better is when they show good films on TV.

Jane on December 13, 2008

That’s a lot of movies! What does it cost to go to the movie theatre where you live? In Sweden it’s very expensive. I’ve only seen six of the movies in your picture. I guess we don’t have exaclty the same taste in movies. :)

Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen?
Definitely DVD. I mostly download movies and watch them on my computer though.

As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away?
Yeah.

What movies are you looking forward to?
Twilight 2 and Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland.

Angelica on December 13, 2008

bel on December 13, 2008

in tokyo, it costs 1,800 yen (around 1thou pesos???) but there’s a certain day for ladies’ day, men’s day, couples’ day in a week which you pay 50% off, depends on the movie theatr.

Questions!
Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen? both

As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away? sometimes, depends on the crowd

What movies are you looking forward to? none at the moment…

bambie on December 13, 2008

I think I watched 1/4 out of all the movies you watched. Haha!

Your mom’s lucky! How did she get that pass? I want that too. <3

Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen?
Big screen. But if I badly want to see the movie but I have no cash in hand, then last resort would be on DVD. :(

As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away?
NO! Hahaha. Because usually when “we” arrive at the theater, its either the movie is at the middle part or worst, ending.

What movies are you looking forward to? :)
Quarantine. The day the earth stood still. Angels and demons. :D

Yvette on December 13, 2008

I watch movies sa big screen. im not fond of dvd marathons. =P id rather do streaming. hahaha. :D and oh, you’ve watched a lot of movies this year. :) my classmate’s mom has this mtrcb pass too. tapos it’s so cool kasi we use it sometimes. hahaha XD

im looking forward for new moon and HP.
i like watching trailers too habang nasa cinema! you like watching too?

Ayiene on December 13, 2008

I prefer watching movies on the big screen, but the prices are going up. Tickets used to be 2.50, now they cost twice the price of popcorn (7.50 I think), so I just get cinema passes instead. Haha. I only like watching DVDs when I’m with my friends and the weather is lame outside. Yeah, when the credits come on I run off. Theres only a few times I stay because they have extras like bloopers or a mini clip about the next film. I’m hoping to watch Twilight next Friday but I know theres going to be a long que and it will be sold out and stuff.

Solaris on December 13, 2008

ahaha, I have a friend who has that MTRCB pass too. and he brought me to a couple of movies for free. XD aww, you didn’t watch Iron Man and the Hulk, those movies deserve to be watched on the big screen. I watched Sweeney Todd and was disappointed, I was expecting a lot from Johnny Depp. XD

For the questions:
the big screen of course. I watch DVDs when I feel like the movie isn’t worth the money haha.
Sometimes. depends on whether I like the movie or not.
Quarantine!! I’ve seen the original movie and it’s one of the best horror films I’ve seen. It’s in Spanish though, but with subs anyway. XD

tiniwini on December 13, 2008

Agree. Thank god, mura lang movie tickets dito. XD

I prefer watching on the big screen but I also like having my own copy of movies I love so I can watch it over and over.

I usually wait for the trailers so I’ll have the next movie in my watchlist. =D

Fia on December 13, 2008

I only got to watch half of the list lng..Npakapulubi ko kc hihi.. I always read the movie reviews in clickthecity before watching a movie on the bigscreen. nakakapanghinayang kasing panoorin yung di naman kagandahang movie lalo na’t halos lahat ng movie downloadable naman dito sa internet db.. that MTRCB pass is really cool (: i wish i could have one for xmas
Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen?
BIGSCREEN!
As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away? Nope. I watch the movie 2-4 times para maintindihan ko tlga story lol..

alexx on December 13, 2008

haerin on December 13, 2008

You’re right, seeing it in the theater is much better. LIke with some scary movies, the experience is better than just watching it online or on dvd at home. I’m into movies a lot to. :) When I watch dvds I watch literally everything the dvd has to offer like the special features, behind the scenes, etc. lol Haha, yeah movie tickets here are pretty expensive, like at night, one movie ticket is like $9.50 where I live.

Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen? If it’s a movie I really want to see, always the theater.

As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away? yeah pretty much. If I want to know some characters I just google the movie.

What movies are you looking forward to? The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons and When the Earth Stood Still

Shellz on December 13, 2008

WOW sis, that’s a lot of movie. I can really tell how addicted u are, hehehe =D anyway I haven’t watch yet most of them.. I’d love to wathc the Kung FU PANDA, is it any good sis ?:D HSM is coOL too,.. I hope I can watch all of those movie. pRetty cooL collections.=D

Jhoice on December 14, 2008

Sorry I missed your last post.=(

I’m actually looking forward to a particular movie that comes out in 2010 – TIM BURTON’S ALICE IN WONDERLAND!!

Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen?

I like watching films at the cinema to see whether I like them, and then if I do, I like getting them on DVD. ;)

As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away?

Yeah, normally.

What movies are you looking forward to?

ALICE IN WONDERLAND – obviously lol. My mum’s getting me lots of horror films for christmas though so im quite looking forward to them.(:

What movies are you looking forward to? any at the moment LOL and that is VERY strange ;)

Noe on December 14, 2008

I like seeing movies on the big screen better..but sometimes when you go to the movies, there are really annoying people there that just wont shut up. :P
And most of the time when the credits start I leave.
I put up a new layout at my site…let me know what you think! :D

Scarlett on December 14, 2008

Which do you prefer, watching movies on DVD or on the big screen?
I prefer to watch DVDs at home. There are people on cinemas I really don’t wanna bump into.
As soon as the credits come out, do you leave the cinema right away?
No. I let all the people out first. When a stampede happens I’m not gonna be there get crushed.
What movies are you looking forward to? :)
Uhmm, New moon? x)

I don’t know how much movies I watched. haha.

Chie on December 14, 2008

aww,, that was really a lot.. and I think i am so pathetic watching only one movie for the year 2009 (twilight), in the big screen. ahehe..well, i have few through dvd. I am not so into movies like you do..:)

I think, i prefer watching those at DVD but if it is really worth it, i’d rather go to the big screen.
nope, i am the type who take few minutes reading the credits and :)
I am looking forward to tanging ina nyong lahat.. ahahah. its our tradition to watch one entry of the MMFF!!

honie on December 14, 2008

Hey Geli!

OMG you’re mom is soo lucky!! where can ya get MTRCB passes? hehe. Man i am such a movie geek too!
As for your questions, i would really prefer seeing a GOOD film on the big screen! there’s something magical about it.

I usually leave right away but unless there’s a little easter egg at the end of the film or the ending credits animation/song is beautiful, i’d stay.

I’m really looking forward to a lot of films! Transformers 2! Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince!! Sherlock Holmes! Kick Ass! Pixar’s UP and Disney’s Princess and the Frog!! Curious Case of Benjamin Button! Milk!! etc etc! ahha :p

tiff k on December 14, 2008

wow, you truly are a movie junkie :) I bet the theatres get most of their income from your pocket :D

Answers: I like the big screen better – and it’s cheaper than waiting for and buying the DVD, right? :) (pirated copies are an exception. lol); No, I do not leave straight away. I actually like the credits section because most films do have the Bloopers and stuff like that ;) And I usually wait for the list of songs to come up, too :D ; I’m looking forward to Twilight (which I know everyone else in the world has already seen. Bad Britain. Lol. :s ) and the next HP :)
