Firstly, one of my early obsessions and necessities in life is watching movies. Yup, believe it or not, I've been watching them since elementary school and that habit has grown into a passion that is difficult to live without until now. For me, movies are not just entertainment but it is also a medium to learn and interpret experiences. Experiences that are close to us, but others that might never happen or exist. Nonetheless, in the end, I hope a certain moral can be gained.
Lately, I just realised that I spend countless hours streaming Youtube and googling (yes, googling is officially a word or verb :)) for movies. It's something that I do daily but it doesn't take much of my time. However, if I count it all up, it turns out I spend hours a week on movies. And I don't get bored at all. It's like an addiction that I can't get enough of it. If there were a psychiatric ward for movie addiction, I'll definitely be a patient there. :p
All of a sudden, the Edison's light bulb in my head went on. Hmm, instead of consuming all of these movies on my own, why not share it to everyone over the internet? Meanwhile, since sharing full length movies can be seen as a crime, why not share the trailers? Everyone can access them on Youtube right? Plus, for me it would be like a documentation of movies that I want to see or have seen. And I do this daily anyway. Something fun to do everyday, isn't that amazing?? The birds are chirping with joy, people dancing around me, yaaaay yabadabadooo ^^
Okay Tiwi, get back down to earth.
So, ehem ehem (formal mode :p), I've decided that each week I will post trailers of my choice both mainstream and non-mainstream. And honestly, in Indonesia, we don't get a lot of good movies in the theaters so I will post some trailers that can be categorised as 'unusual' movies. Since this is a very subjective selection, I think it would nice to give everyone a head's up on what kind of movies I go for. In general, I go for a movie that has a good story and script despite its limited or very good effects. From that, I normally watch a variety of genres from comedies to action, drama, thrillers and many more. On the other hand, there's one genre I don't watch a lot. Guess what genre? Horror. Not that I despise it, but it's just that normally, I can get any message or moral from it. Also, the fact that I get nightmares after watching them does not help my already sleep deprived nights. Yes, in all you can say that I'm just a chicken when it comes to horror movies :D
Every weekend starting from now I will choose or pick 5-10 trailers. Most of them would be movies that I have not seen before.
