X Men - From a hater to an admirer

Salam Alaikum.

May you all be in the best state of health and faith.

I was wondering, man, lets write the story of my hatred-turned-love for the movie, X Men (2000).

When I was in 7th grade, a friend of mine was a movie maniac. MM, movie maniac, was a term used back then to show someone's craze for movies.

Anyhow, she had a chance to watch X-Men somwhere. Her father brought it or her brother, doesnt matter anyway!

She came to me and asked if I have seen it. My answer was, with no surprise, in negative.

Cos I didnt care for movies much. She told me that there is a handsome mutant in the movie who has blades in his hands. And I was like,"Who in the world falls for a bladed mutant?"

That proved my friend's REAL insanity. Well, she was a teen, I dont blame her. But still, A mutant with blades in his hand, are u kidding me? And she called him handsome and praised him as if he was some Prince Charles.

Anyways, I wanted to discover who he was, but lack of sources wouldnt allow me. After 2-3 years, a channel called MBC2 showed the movie. And as X-Men had a hype, there was no chance I would miss it.

All my siblings watched it. They liked it too, but me, nah. I still hated it. Specially that bladed Mutant wolverine, which was his name.

Time passed. And with time, i myself became a movie maniac. I started to watch 5 movies a week, must. As if it was some dose for me. That I dont take it, i'll die. Not die but wont live quite easily either.

Then my routine became one movie a day.

From The Godfather to The Dark Knight, I have watched about a 1000 movies I guess.

Be it a chickflick or a solid action packed ride, I have seen it.

Recently MBC2 showed X-Men again. In those days, my sister was at home on vacations. I asked her if she wants to watch it but she said, I have better things to do, hehe.

Well, I decided to get my pop-corns ready, cos I dont know why, but I started to have a thing for action movies.

It begin, believe it or not, I LOVED it. Absolutely adored the whole movie. The plot was amazing, acting was superb (Halle Barry excluded) and well well, the bladed mutant....

He was awesome. I realised it quite late, but yes, he was truly nice.

Specially when his blades came out the first time, my whole body got chilled and I was thinking,"It hurts! ouch..."

About 6 years ago, i gave this movie a 4 out of 10. But after watching it, with some knowledge of movies, acting and media, i give it a 9.

The only point I cut is because of Halle Barry's acting. Which was, lets say, poorly bad.

Specially her infamous dialogue to the not-so-good Toad,"Do you know what happens to a toad when its struck by lightening..??" Then the well-known-poor-toad gets struck. Storm, Hally Barrey, says,"The same thing that happens to everything else..."

I mean, are you kidding me? Dammit people, OF COURSE lighting would hurt the toad, it wont turn him into King of England of course.

Well, never mind these little things.

The X Men Trilogy is awesome. And I really do believe I have been missing alot for not enjoying it for so long.

GOD bless u all.

Some Deaths Do Affect Us..!!

Salam Alaikum everyone.

May you all be in the best state of health and faith.

As you might have known that I am a very very bad movie addict. Bad in a sense that I HAVE to watch a movie everyday otherwise my day doesnt pass.

Recently found the release of "The Dark Knight". Another batman sensation. Living in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, I am unable to watch the movie but its trailers really seem to be intresting. And there is a guy I just dont want to talk about as it makes me sad or I should say, it makes me feel worst deep down inside. His name is Heath Ledger, The Joker of The Dark Knight (TDK).

His character is really kind of scary. But for me its just sad. This phenomenal actor late Heath Ledger passed away this year on 22 January by an accidental overdose of prescribed drug(s). Or so does the media says.

He was 28 and now is very well known for this character of his.

The Joker is a very strange villian who is somehow funny, scary and for people like me, a legend.

When I saw the trailer for the first time I couldnt believe it was Heath Ledger. He looked completely different. You like it or not, the joker DOES seem to be a TRUE bad guy.

In real Ledger doesnt have those bad guy looks but Joker is really a good example of transforming someone into something, :D.

Ok back to Ledger. I wasnt much of a fan of him. He was a fine actor and pretty much of what hollywood needs. Had a daughter, a pretty 2 year old named Matilda.

When I got to know about his death, I couldnt stop thinking what about his daughter? People like me, the media loving people, have seen him in movies, know his biography etc. But what will happen to his daughter? Who wont get to know her own father except from some movies he has done. She wouldnt have those tender hands holding her. Taking her to school, wiping her tears. He wouldnt be here to hold her hand when she takes her first step. She wouldnt have him with her while walking down the aisle on her big day, her wedding day. She lost someone she would have loved THE MOST.

I might be sounding a little lame and sad. But last night I couldnt help my tears from coming out after I saw the Trailer of TDK on T.V. Its breaking the records. And has already become the most succesful movie of 2008. But one of its main part, The Joker, is no longer here to see the move being a hit among each kind of audience. Children, teens, old people...everyone is loving the movie.

I still cant believe the deaths of many people. Including my dad's brother who was really dear to me. Just like a father he was.

What I learn from these deaths is that get the best out of your life. Do the best in your life. Dont waste it after seeing the worst in the world. If you have an aim, follow it. Dont waste your life for the people who wont support you. Try to prove yourself as a good guy and never try proving it to those who know nothing but criticism. Avail the oppurtunities that come. See the best in everything. As you never know when will be your time to take the last breath.

Death doesnt see who is of what age, if ALLAH has decided for me to die now or to die after 70 years, it upto HIM, not me. So if I can do something right now, I should. Never wait

May ALLAH bless us all and give us the best life and the ability to live it as its best.
