Well, Nita tagged me for a meme she was tagged for and hence here i am writing (thinking more than writing) in response to the Movie Quirks meme.

I am not much of a movie buff (i prefer books). But since Nita has made me put my thinking cap on i have come realize that there ARE a few quirks that i would like to share. So, here i go. I hope you enjoy them and please feel free to comment.

• I hate to land up in some Hindi movie which is good for nothing and has no story to tell. I can’t stand it and would always prefer to walk out than suffer through the three hours. (Diagonally opposite reaction as compared to Nita and Amit’s)

• And because this has happened to me more than once, now i usually do NOT go to a movie (especially hindi) until i have a review about it from some authentic source like, say Nita
• I like romantic comedies. And i like to flow with the movie. If it makes me cry- i cry; if it makes me laugh- i laugh and i laugh LOUD; and if it makes me feel like walking out- i walk out.
• i have never been to a theater for a movie all by myself and hence i think i would be really depressed if i were to ever go for a movie without some sensible company. As such i always have Abhi to fall back on so not a problem so far.

• I am a Gulzar fan. Though he hardly makes films any more but if there is a movie by him- i would not wait for a review. And he is only exception.
• I love to see the extra shots in the end that are there at times in certain movies. Like the ones where they show a few shots which were ruled out during editing (i think it is there in Liar Liar). U know where you get to see how many re-takes went in filming the shot that we never even paid attention to. For that matter i even liked the ending sequence of Om Shanti Om. It was cute
• I like RGV’s movies ;). I know i am asking for trouble by saying this but don’t judge him only by his Aag! I mean he has given some REAL nice movies (For example Sarkar, Satya, Rangeela, etc.). At least he has a different angle than the usual run-of-the-mill movie-makers.
• I hate mobile phones ringing in the theater and hate the people coolly chatting over the phone all the more. For that matter i even get annoyed with those who fiddle with their mobiles during the movie. You know the ones who keep playing games or sending SMSes. If they are behind me it doesn’t matter but somehow i always find one such person right in the next row. And every time his screen lights up in the dark it snatches my attention from to movie to see his stupid handset!
• And as most of us do, i too hate people passing comments constantly during the movie. It’s such a pain. And at times i have ended up confronting them asking them to keep their mouths shut.
• I love to see couples cooing and cuddling around during the movie. It’s like a breach of privacy i know but i enjoy doing it!
