Art Vs. Business

DDLevel. Could've easily be a Blockbuster superstar. Yet only 5 films since 1998. Could you have done more. Why don't you.

I adore your style. You just fu*k care today's law of success. Money means sh*t to you.

Why Gary Oldman lost his Oscar

Like the story, love the ambiance, forever love Gary Oldman.

But too bad you acted your true self and blended too well among the classiest British casts consist of Mr. Hurt, Mr. Strong, Mr. Firth etc.

That's why you lost your Oscar. Why don't you stand out a bit and slightly tune up your volume. You could've easily won the Forest-Whitaker-way. Yet you kept your cool and class.

2013 Malaysian general election

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." 

- Albert Einstein 

Must be held no later than 27 June 2013. 

Who should thou vote? It all depends on your own expectations. 

A Bronx Tale (1993)

Girls beware of the door test. I have to agree with Sonny.

2 educations. School's and street's. Nice story and electrifying performance by Mr. Palminteri. Almost forgotten, the saddest thing in life is wasted-talent.

Mean Streets (1973)

Authentic Hollywood-style, captivated by the random characters.

I'm from the streets but not exactly New York's, can't fully empathize though.

Memorable Scene - V for Vendetta (2005)

"Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof."
- V

How ideas die? With hands around the neck? Ideas have neck?

Memorable Scene - The Boondock Saints (1999)

With the lunatic William Dafoe directing his imaginary orchestraic 2 minutes 'Firefight!' scene, there's only 1 adjective that I can add in front of the word 'epic' - 'fu*king'.

Fu*king epic, in such ridiculously cool hilarious way. I wonder how this scene is depicted in the screenplay - 'William Dafoe examines the shooting scene?'

"What if there was one guy with 6 guns?" (First time he was right)

"Why don't you let me do the thinking huh genius?" Hahaha... 

Million Dollar Baby (2004)

"People die everyday, Frankie - mopping floors, washing dishes and you know what their last thought is? I never got my shot."
- Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris

I got my shot. But I didn't shoot hard enough. I'm too weak to live. 

Tough ain't enough. So hard to swallow my own inefficiency. I'll die with regrets because I thought I've got more to offer. Not sure anymore.

Guilt

I can't do sh*t in real world. Can only live in my own world, drowning in my neverland and lying to everyone and myself pretending that I'm somebody.

What the fu*k am I doing. I have let you down, and I don't know if I can ever face you again.

Clint Eastwood

The world of entertainment is a fantasy I know, yet he is the only real-life inspiration for me to keep doing what I believe is right without giving up. Keep trying no matter what, for I'm just 1/3 of his age, I've got 2/3 more time to try and work my world.

Climmortal.

Memorable Scene - Heat (1995)

Without a doubt I'll exchange 143 minutes of The Avengers, for this plain 6 minutes restaurant conversation scene between 2 almost-DDLevel monsters.

Mr. Pacino and Mr. De Niro can kick 300 Hulks' ass*s anytime/where/how they want for all I care.

Not only it's the burning point of the movie in such a cool quiet way, it's the highlight of a generation.

Memorable Scene - Up (2009)

With time passes so fast, can't remember nothing about Up no more.

Except for the colorful balloons and the ever-moving 'Carl and Ellie's aging montage' beginning scene. If I knew right now, I will have similar montage one day in exchange for anything, I'll take the deal now.

Memorable Scene - Chinatown (1974)

"She's my ..."
- Evelyn Mulwray

I'll be slapped continuously by Mr.Gittes if I spoil this legendary scene for you.

Memorable Scene - Reservoir Dogs (1992)

"Hey, what's going on?"
- Mr Blonde

The Ear scene, laugh my ears off. Who else would've thought of that? 

Memorable Scene - Life Is Beautiful (1997)

The 'translation' scene bursts me while the 'winks' scene tears me apart.

I regard Mr. Guido is as courageous as Mr. Roy Benavidez.

Memorable Scene - The Usual Suspects (1995)

"The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."

- Roger "Verbal" Kint

The final 3 minutes ending scene right after this man, Agent Kujan sips his last coffee before dropping that particular cup, is one of the all-time best cinematic ending scenes. Also one of the best twists ever made in movie history.

Memorable Scene - Shall We Dance (2004)

This is exactly what I'm gonna do to my wife one day after many years of marriage. Not forgetting Peter Gabriel's "The Book Of Love".

Not a romantic freak, didn't really enjoy that many romantic movies, but anytime whenever this scene couples with "The Book Of Love", I will surrender my tears.

Memorable Scene - The Shawshank Redemption (1994)

How can you possibly forget this scene.

This should be the only worthy action to celebrate your goal/ultimate actualization.

This is what I will do exactly when I be what I wanna be one day. No rain I will light a match under a sprinkler, shirtless and close my eyes.

Memorable Scene - The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)

"When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk." 

- Tuco

Pretty much sums up what ugly's about, in life. 

Flight (2012)

This is weird.

I can't find any good images, or even topics/discussions, relating to this movie's main theme - *. Actually this seems to be the only movie that seriously deals with *. Geee I bet no one knows what's *.

Daniel Day-Lewis

Once upon a time there're these 3 levels.

Good actors.

Best actors.

DDLevel actors. So far other than DDL Himself, I regard Marlon Brando and Gary Oldman closest to DDLevel. Tips to locate DDLevel actors: generally you don't recognize them in real life or in previous performances.
