Remarkable Scene: Moving Series

Moving is a superhero themed k-drama series. Just like Umbrella Academy, it was originally from a webtoon. And just like Umbrella Academy, I came to love the story primarily because of the quality of background music and sound bites they meticulously used. The story line just came second.

For me, the remarkable scenes are found at the latter episodes. It is also where the moral and heart of the story takes place.

The latter episodes give us the pov of the villains from the north; how they come to know their power; how their power have been discovered; and why they attack the heroes of the south. And it's sad. Sad to the point that I sympathize with them than the heroes.

I will not be posting here all the remarkable scenes, but here is one of the best: 


Let me know your thoughts too after watching this series.

Remarkable Scene: 1899 Series

There were only two remarkable scenes for me: One is this one which made me laugh out loud and didn't quite expect the series to have a scene like this because of its genre:



The second one is these, consider them as one since I've combined them all here in one single clip. All the scenes where Daniel and Maura are together unfolding their story:


I am not into making these kind of clips but since I noticed that there were only few clips about them, here I am making one to satisfy the search result of folks like me who ended up liking the series very much. And yes, the series is a lot more bigger than Daniel and Maura's story. But their's is my favorite. And the song suit them well: Kahit isang saglit by Hulyo.

Meanwhile, here's an additional clip I found on youtube that kind of stirring up some emotions as well:

Remarkable Part: Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver

 


The moment I realized that every creature in this world has a precious life to respect, I started treating them that. Because, really, it's always the case. So yeah, I'm one of those people who doesn't kill a spider just because it shares my space; I don't kill ants walking across the table because they, too, has a life and why would I take it away just because I have the ability to do so? 

And reading this book, highlights that side of me and strengthens my thesis about life of other creatures. And made me realize that there are people who think the same way I do with this certain topic. 

I actually don't have much remarkable part to share with you except these lines from the start and repeated at the end. Because yeah, it's a fact. 

Here it is:

Remarkable Scene: Star Wars Series

For some reason, after watching the latest sequel (The Rise of Skywalker) of the latest Star Wars Trilogy, I decided that I'll make some time to watch the whole series. 

I have watched just one Star Wars movie before this, and I was pretty much young to remember the details or the story of it (Phantom Menace, Star Wars Ep 1). So I never quite understand pretty much most of it while watching the last sequel. 😅

And now, obviously, since I have made this blog, I got the chance to watch the whole series. If you are planning too, here's the chronological order of the whole series:


I must admit that Star Wars Series are pretty much amazing. And now that I get to understand the story, it is now officially included in my favorite movie series, together with The Lord of The Ring, and The Hobbit, Narnia, Pirates of the Caribbean.

One of the most remarkable scenes is on Ep. III, where Luke and his Father (Anakin) defeated Palpatine. I like how redemption and forgiveness were portrayed here. It's like reminding us that it's never too late to be a better person; to ask forgiveness from pur past mistakes and sins. And these lines, were so remarkable:

Luke: No, I'm not gonna leave you here. I got to save you. 
Anakin: You already have. 

But my most favorite among it's series is Ep. VIII. I literally clapped my hands upon learning the twist at the end--- making it my favorite scene and episode and thus, the very much remarkable scene for me. Not the lines, but the whole scene. 

Anyway, here are the quotable lines I find worthy noting down:

"Fear is the passage to the dark side
Fear leads to anger
Anger leads to hatred
Hatred leads to misery"
-Yoda, SWEP1

"That's how we win. Not fighting what we hate but saving what we love."
-Rose, SWEPVIII

And if you are looking for a Star Wars Collectibles, I am selling book series, trilogy and stand alone, and you can check them out here: Star Wars Book Set

Thank you and may the force be with you. 💕

Remarkable Scene: Cardboard Boxer


LAHAT

If you do not understand the word above, please use Google Translate: Filipino to English. Salamat! :D

But let me put the scene where I cried myself out loud, or in our word "ngal-ngal"... but still, I managed to "ngal-ngal"  quietly. :P


Also, the film itself (including the story, script, cinematography, actors, background music, and everything that completes the film) is remarkable or probably beyond. Watch it to further understand what I'm talking about.

P.S. I was actually looking for a film to watch then delete right after the end. But this one is staying. :D

Remarkable Scene: The Book of Henry

Right after I've seen the trailer of this film, I promised myself that I will watch it in the cinema. But then, there was no screening schedule available in the malls near our place. So then, I have no choice but to wait for an HD download.

And finally, I've seen the film, which turned out to be the first movie I've watched this 2018.

And below is the remarkable scene:

Henry: Why didn't you help the lady at the grocery store?
Mom: Like what I've said, it's none of our business.
Henry: "I think when someone hurt someone else, it is our business."
Mom: "I know it seems that way but there is nothing I could do."
Henry: "If everybody did that then there would be no one to look out for the people who just can't look out for themselves."
Mom: "So what should have I done? I don't want things to get violent."
Henry: "Violence isn't the worst thing in the world."
Mom: "What is that?"
Henry: "APATHY."

There you go, Ladies and Gents! And that is something to think about. :)

Remarkable Scene: Stuck In Love

I have no idea what this film is all bout. I just saw one of its scenes on twitter and then decided to download the film and probably watch it someday.

And that someday happens to be an hour later. And it is one of the awesome films I've watched. I'm glad I am following a page on twitter, which features scenes from wonderful movies. :D

I was kinda laughing when I learned that this film is about a family of writers struggling in their own personal life as writers and as a human. I can relate to some of the scenes and characters of this film. And below were those I considered remarkable in this film:

1.
Daughter: You're a well respected novelist. You won a &*^*&^((&&** twice. You can't behave like that.
Dad: She's coming back.
Daughter: At least tell me you've been writing.
Dad: (unable to answer)
Daughter: Look what you've let her do to you Dad! Seriously!

2.
Brother: You've never been in love?
Sister: If love is setting up a table for a person who's never coming home. I think I'll pass.

3.
Dad: A writer is a sum of their experiences. Go get some.

4.
(in front of aspiring writers)
Dad: The reason why Leslie could never get me up here to talk about the process of writing is... I'm not sure of what to say about that could benefit you. And I still find it all very mysterious years after I wrote my first book. And I'm not sure what it is that compels a person to continue to play make believe even after they're an adult. 

5.
Husband: Here's a confession: I'm not a great writer. I'm a great re-writer. I haven't written anything since you left. 
Ex-wife: You are a great writer. Don't waste all your imaginations on me.



And I have to admit that (again -_-) this film made me cry but I'm not going to tell you which part. You have to experience it yourself. :D

Remarkable Scene: Shattered Glass

Warning: Spoiler Alert! (Stop reading now if you have not yet watched the film... But still, it's up to you... :D)

Shattered Glass was based on a true story but I was not expecting that the protagonist in this film will turn out as antagonist in the end. We all hate liars, and that Stephen Glass (the main character of the film) was not just a liar, he's a perfect liar. The kind of liar that would make another lie just to justify or cover the lies he had made. I HATE THAT KIND OF PERSON and I DON'T ALLOW THEM IN MY LIFE ANYMORE ONCE THEY GET BUSTED. I freaking hate how they can lie to you so perfectly. And to top it all, this guy worked in a world where truth and facts is a must, and is highly expected from them.

And since, I don't know nor have any idea about Stephen Glass, I have no idea how the story will turn out. And while I am watching the film, I was expecting that somehow things will be justified for the guy: that he has just been fooled by a source or something like that; that he did it on purpose to show or prove something regarding the world of journalism; that it was his first time to do such act; that he was really incapable of lying. But nah.

Anyway, although I hate those kind of jerks, I must admit that we all have flaws. We all have our favorite sin, some just sin differently. Or maybe it's a kind of sickness that they should be healed from. And still, we can learn something from the film, especially those aspiring journalists. :D

Below are scenes that somehow match the name of this blogsite :D

1. Reality can be so funny...



2. Her question will give a different meaning once you re-watched the film.



3. The word "influence" -- one of the main objectives in writing (well, at least for me)



4. Well, this is based on truth and facts. :D



5. He did his best, and tried more... I guess, Stephen didn't realize that.



6. Your friends? They will even defend you. But in the end, they'll discover that they too have been fooled.



I feel sorry for Stephen. I've watched some of his interviews and I felt sad for the consequences of what he had done. But that is what sin can do to us. They can break us; shatter us like glasses. And before that thing happen to you, might as well stop now and quit sinning. It is hard but God is just a call away. And redemption is always at hand. You just have to decide to be redeemed. And this is based on truth and facts, whether you accept it or not. :)

Remarkable Scene: Little Miss Sunshine

I was following a page in twitter (I don't know if 'page' is the term, but I know almost everybody has Facebook so probably you'll get what I mean ;P) which features movie lines and quotes. And then,  one of their posts caught my attention or probably moved me in some ways. So, I look at the description to see the title of the movie and it says, "Little Miss Sunshine". I immediately, watched its trailer and then decided to download the whole film.

I was not expecting too much from the film, but then as the movie began playing, I was literally hooked on it already.

Here are some of the remarkable scenes that are worth sharing because they remind us of the reality of life and the lessons to get through it. It gave me the idea that it's alright if reality beaten and bitten you hard; 'life's a bitch' that's what they say and you gotta be bitchier than it together with your family or friend and don't forget God, please. :D

These scenes below were not in chronological order though.


1. Dad talking to his son who just failed a business deal. What made it heartwarming was connected to their personality. So, find out what personalities they have. :P You will have a hint as you continue to read this blog. :D



2. Of course, everyone of us needs to be reminded of this.



3. Yeah, it is remarkable because I can relate to the old man. :p 



4. This is what apathy looks like. -_-



5. You'll find out why I considered this remarkable when you watch the film. The first line was from the Mom.



6. Reality bites, indeed.



7. Don't listen to the standard of media when it comes to beauty. ;)



8. We all been here.



9. Because sufferings mold, shape and make a better version of us.



Now the list below were the remarkable scenes that made me cry. Literally cried the hell out of me.

1. Yes, that very moment.



2. (T.T) (T.T) (T.T)....



3. Mother knows best. :)




4. You'll know why it's part of this list when you watch the film. :p




So, there you go. I hope I didn't spoil the movie for you. ;P
