About me

Who is Ella:)? (ex MihaMಌ)


A fool for cartoons and telenovelas, a person who spends time on good and less good tv shows on a regular basis since childhood, true movie lover for six years and addicted to the cinema since 2008. True, sometimes my attention can attract reality show, talk show and more recently web show. I must not forget to mention - I'm in love with mini-series and documentaries.

My favorite genres are: Romance, War/History/Biography, Action/Adventure, Musical/Music. I also look Drama, Sport, Sci-Fi, Family/Comedy, Fantasy/Mystery, Crime/Thriller and I despise Horrors. Genres, sub-genres and hybrids that somehow I don't like: Westerns, Film-Noir, Parody, Psychological Thrillers, "social problem" Dramas, silent movies.

Beside movies and tv shows I also love books. I'm a big fan of them and even though sometimes I don't have enough time, and sometimes not even enough concentration, there are periods of a year (especially in the summer) when I hang up with them more than with anyone else. I love fiction and non fiction. Most places on my shelves occupy this genres: Historical fiction, Memoir, Biography, Chick-lit and Romance but I also like to read Sports, Crime, Mystery, Thriller, Humor and Comedy and Young-adult.

And when it comes to music, my mood decides on it. It doesn't bother me if my taste is not in fashion or in progress.

==========================================

I warmly welcome all who love movies, books, tv shows, music. Please send suggestions and comments on my lists. No topics or friend requests that are not related to them!!

☆☆☆☆☆ Nope, not for me. I didn't even finish it / ★☆☆☆☆ I didn't like it at all, but I tried / ★★☆☆☆ OK-ish, but still I wouldn't recommend it / ★★★☆☆ Nice, entertaining / ★★★★☆ Great! I liked it a lot :) / ★★★★★ I'm in love with this movie/book/tv show/album ♥

==========================================

Thought I'd never become emotionally attached to a fictional character, then he came along. (Michelangelo "Spike" Scarlatti - Flashpoint)

I'm not sure I loved Iron Man 3, but I did really like it. I watched it this past weekend. I need to update my Marvel list obviously, but I'm waiting until after my May list is out there. ;)

Thanks so much for the list votes! And yep, I'll do my best to get The Intouchables watched this month!

Many thanks as always for voting and commenting! I will say that I happen to personally know at least one very bright person with well formed taste that enjoyed End of Watch, so... you know. Maybe it's something worth checking out. I have certain pet-peeves when it comes to movies and that one just happened to violate a bunch of them.

I think it's safe to say that you'll enjoy Side Effects. Most complaints I've read are minor and short-sell the larger movie for the sake of minor quibbles. But even the quibbles aren't something I tend to agree with.

Thank you for the comment to Troy minireview, too! :)
Well, I read Homer's Iliad when I was a kid, so I didn't remember the details to tell all the differences from "Troy", the movie. Now that you make me notice that, I am going to look into the unfaithfulnesses :)

Thank you for the vote on my new list, my dear friend! :)
Posted: 3 months ago at Feb 15 13:37
Thank you, Ella. I would love to see your own favorites! I've honestly thought of extending these lists of mine beyond 25 choices because I've had to leave off many more favorites but I had to draw the line somewhere, I suppose.

I would be interested in hearing of your own though. :)

Hey friend, thanks for stopping by! Yep, various "life stuff" taking me away from here lately. Should try to get a journal up by the end of the week though. Have a good one!

Okay, so I'm officially "following" you now. No more cool lists from you getting by me for months at a time.

Oh, how I wish I had the time to spend around here that I used to. Anyway, hope you've had a nice weekend.

Thanks for the recent votes and for taking time to comment! I responded on my list: http://www.listal.com/list/october-movie-journal-xanadont

though I'm not sure way I didn't just do so here. Hmmm. That was silly. Anyway, give it a look.

And I'm glad to see your diary for this month, useful as always.. :)

Thanks! :)

I really do think The Rum Diary is worth watching. Hope you feel the same whenever you get a chance to watch it.

Thanks again for all the recent journal votes and comment! Yep, there's a reason Casablanca is so universally loved- what a great movie! While on vacation this week I picked up a vintage, Japanese Casablanca movie poster! I fear this may be the beginning of an expensive hobby ;)
