Are you a ‘High School Musical’ (HSM) fan? It’s a great film, isn’t it? I’m sure you have your favorite cast members and scenes in that movie – from Troy to Gabriella and Sharpay to Ryan. Disney are now producing a film titled ‘Sharpay’s Fabulous Adventure’ featuring Sharpay (Ashley Tisdale) as the lead role. Sharpay’s role in HSM is known to be a drama queen who is always on the mission to break Troy and Gabriella and also be the lead in the musical. Well, I think, she’s now on her way to achieve something that will make us all proud of her!
Have you seen the movie “The Godfather”? It’s a drama and highly serious plot, right? It was a great movie and I would like to watch it again. But how would you like a ‘sort of’ sequel of The Godfather that may make you laugh instead? If this has you confused, then you are not the only one! The Last Godfather movie is a comedy film with little in common with the original.

It’s a real trick when two friends enter the ‘friends-with-benefits’ zone. You may believe that no one actually develops a real feeling towards the other person but that’s just not possible at all. You are not a robot. Intimacy leads to certain feelings that you can’t just ignore. That’s how every human being is made; to feel. So what are you going to do if you suddenly develop a romantic feeling for your ‘so-called-friend’ and all he or she wants from you is a freebie?
I have always been fond of animation films. I am always on the lookout for the up and coming animated movies especially when one or two of the voice casts are my favorite artists. Do you remember the movie ‘Bolt’? One of the main reasons why I watched that movie was because John Travolta and Miley Cyrus played the character of Bolt and Penny respectively. I really love watching and hearing them as they portray the characters in that movie. So when I found out that Taylor Swift will be in an animated film, I just knew that I would be at the edge of my seat waiting for the movie to be released.
I’m always filled with pride every time I finish watching a great indie film which I, myself, stumbled upon. I honestly get tired of watching ‘indie films’ with famous Hollywood celebrities putting their name on the film, while cutting their salary, all in the name of exploring a different track for their career. I think it’s just me, but I prefer indie films with relatively unknown actors so that the film can speak for itself. I guess that is just how I define an indie film, low-budget, experimental and with actors who have not yet made it to Hollywood. So this film, The Sky has Fallen, fell just right into my desirable indie list and I have to say that this movie did not disappoint. Produced for a tiny fraction of Hollywood budgets, this film uses fresh talent and top notch special effects to deliver a post-apocalyptic love story that has won numerous awards on the festival circuit.
