Month of July re-cap.

I've been a lot to the movie theater this month.
- Salt: Been waiting a whole year for this movie to come out and it is definitely part of the to-watch list. It is most-AWESOME!!! maybe the best movie Ive seen in 2010. Angelina Jolie's performance is outstanding, the score is excellent and the writing is genius.

-Toy Story 3D: Just loved everything about it!! Loved that the cast is exactly the same (Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Don Rickles...), they even gave the role of barbie to Jodie Benson, the little mermaid.This Pixar definitely has the magic and power of Walt Disney.
The short film preceding the movie, like every Pixar, Day and night was so brilliant and wonderful. Including music by Michael Giacchino
(my favorite composer), this short film shows the personifications of day and night that end up getting along.
Anyway
Toy Story 3D is a to-watcher.

-The Twilight Saga, Eclipse:
The best of the series so far and a big triumph after the disaster: New Moon. Surely a great treat for the twifans, the movie gets in the To-watch list. Even the soundtrack is really good (bought it last week actually) and will definetly be enjoyed by Muse lovers. As a matter of fact, the author Stephenie Meyer is the biggest Muse fan.

-The Sorcerer's Apprentice: This movie is such a not-to-watcher. Though it's not that bad, it is still majorly cliche and predictable. However Nicholas cage's performance was quite good.

I also watched a bunch of DVDs :
-Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: Clearly not the best of the series in my opinion, still everybody has to watch all the Harry Potter movies, it is the phenomenon of the decade.
So that it why I think it part of the
to-watch list.

-Dorian Grey (2009): I personally don't find that this movie makes the to-watch list, though I can understand way people might have liked it. The reason why it makes the Not-to-watch list, is that this movie doesn't have anything special that is why I leave this only comment: it is so plain.

-13 going on 30 (2004): This is cute and funny, the plot is also fun and special. Jennifer Garner is also cute and funny in this movie and plays her role really. That is why it makes the to-watch list. However, guys and gals who generally don't enjoy romantic comedies should watch it.

And I also really eager to watch despicable me and inception which I mightbe watching tonight.

Till the next time,

The start of a journey.

Hi world and welcome to soundtracker1's: the movie list.

I've been watching lots of movies over the past several years and realized that I've grown hesitant into watching movies I have never seen. I've realized that most of the movies that are being made are either banal and cliche or simply pointless and stupid. Though I really am fund of comedies, lots of the recent movies really have no point at all and aren't even fun and dumb in a good way.

So I've come to the idea of documenting every single movie and TV show I will watch, and put each of them in one of the 2 following lists: the "to-watch" list and the "not to-watch" list, therefore helping the people who are interested to chose which movies to watch and not to watch.

I hope my first blog will be appreciated and helpful to everyone and that I can keep it going for as long as I can.
