Mom's Glorious Home-Made Chips are Life

This page is named after the most tasteful chips my mom makes. Not gonna give you the details bout it, though. It is just my brain that needs a place to pour what it contains... to keep it literate perhaps.

"Love is the ultimate outlaw......I love you for free." - The Quirky Tale of Still Life with Woodpecker by Tim Robbins

Due to the novel’s extreme peculiarity, it was almost hard to begin writing the review without sounding like a lunatic. My first Tom Robbins novel has opened an entirely new level of understanding of the insane absurdity in a tale. Yet, no matter how bizzare the story went, it was a crazily fun and liberating experience because sometimes, one might need a break from those heavy-themed litetatures and this book would be a perfect pick for just that particular reason. Reading the book made me feel like I was on a fun road trip with friends, driving mindlessly with a lot of crazy fun in between. There is no summer in my country but I’d have to agree with those who think that this book would be a perfect summer reading. The Hawaii setting in the beginning of the story also helped building that vibe perfectly.

"Have you ever retired a human by mistake?" - Rachael in Blade Runner (1982) art by @jamesjeanart My thoughts on the film: It's a very thick noir-sci-fi film with an unusually impressive delivery. By thick I mean it offers every details the genre has to: endless night time, rain and smoke, and psychotic Artificial Intelligence(s) in a beyond-repair world (imagine Gothan city for your own visualization). It is dark, strange and cruel. For me, personally, this thematic complexity contributes massively to the entire film. It makes the display and the story more intense, thrilling, and mysterious. I mentioned 'unusual' earlier, right? It has something to do with the use of some elements to depict the futuristic life that has been rotten and irreparable. The background score for example. They use multicultural and unique background music that helps narrate the scenes. It mingles really well with the tone of the film. I can't think of a good way to put it, but it is like a haunting howl. It sounds sad, daunting, yet beautiful at the same time, the effort that gives me an extremely special movie going experience. Then, I came to the last great 30 minutes of the film: The ultimate mano o mano between two significant characters. In this vicious 'Hide and Seek', the two learn that they share similarities -- they both hunt and are hunted, both are scared and in pain. And it is revealed that fear is what moves them to do what they do. I was profoundly moved by the monologue Roy character delivers at the end, suggesting that there is still humanity in him. It really does raise him morally. I am now preparing myself to watch the sequel, Blade Runner 2049, released earlier this year. What a shame I didn't watch it in the cinema. Shame! Shame! Shame! *walk like Cercei Lannister* #bladerunner #harrisonford #moviereview

One of the finnest horror movies at least in the last 10 years. Really. I'm not a big fan of the genre, but this one is special. (Because) Not only am I a fan of Stephen King's, but besides its nerve-cracking story, it also delivers heartwarming and endearing accounts. And DAMN IT, 2017's Pennywise is major-terrifying. Oh sorry, I mean T.E.R.R.I.F.Y.I.N.G. I was massively petrified to see an evil hideous clown terrorizing kids and growing stronger in their fears. I love the story, the performances (Oh Eddie is my MVP. This one is way better than the miniseries has), and the visual packaging. I could go for the second time, but Im too traumatized to take the risk. Because, to be honest, it was a bit too much compare to how I envisioned it when I read the book, let alone the 1990's version. I'd rather wait for the digital release. Looks like he's growing stronger in my fears nih. Bahaya 😖😧😰 . . Big round of applause for the entire team of the movie @itmovieofficial 👏 . . #pennywise #thedancingclown

The actual footage of Upin & Ipin photobombing our perfect "The Breakfast Club" pose, and everything else that is equally epic 😎 #comiccon #thebreakfastclub

[keripiktalas]

Not only is this "a must" pose to take, but also it represents my excitement and gratitude to be in this magnificent place. I am not a big fan of this kind of journey but Bromo amazes me with its breathtaking beauty, Mashaallah... Thanks a lot to @abidahza and her folks for making it easier, lovelier, and more special. Wafyuu~

#Throwback to when the first Comic Con in Indonesia happened back in 2015. QUIZ TIME: Why am I so 'all smiles' in this pic? A. Cos it wast my first ever comic con experience, duh! B. Cos behind me, there's Tom Hiddleston staring fiercely (and beautifully :P) C. I was actually holding farts

Sooooo I watched it. Hoshh! It's all true. YASS, the movie is super tense. The tension starts from the very first scene all the way to the end. And it ends amazingly. Oh, my ayes are blessed seeing its satisfying visualization. All the scenes are beautifully shot. The story, the pacing, the score, JUST every details is amazingly crafted. A shame I didn't watch it in imax.

The story centers on three different perspectives with different timeline for each: the mole (one week), the water (one day), and the air (one hour). Each part contributes significant impact to one another as they're crossing each other's paths & times. And as for the terrors, they do not compromise at all. They come again and again, mostly when they're least expected. Everyone involved in this tragedy, in any war actually, they're not the same person anymore when they're back home. IF they can make it home. It takes something from them. This makes me sad yet so utterly grateful to be alive in waaay more peaceful and safe time and place.

Like in other Nolan's movies, we are required to pay attetion to the details. Be alert. He is known as the specialist of sci-fi/thriller/mistery genre, yet he can manage to put the ingredients to his newfound love, this historical drama.

The strength doesn't come from the cinematography and the story only. I also got to enjoy fine performances of those fine and not to mention cute actors, especially the air force pilot, played by Tom "I'm flying like a bird, tho without fuel" Hardy, THE HERO OF THE DAY. He wears a mask almost throughout the movie, but he flies the aircraft with CHARISMA. The shivering soldier, Cillian Murphy, the other soldiers, the commander, the colonel, the pilots, just everyone, they're all fine and cute 😅. Speaking of soldiers, Harry Styles, who plays one of them, really has done a very good job. I heard that he's good in it, but I didn't know if he's 'that good'. He is. He gets rid of that boyband image for this movie. Well done, Harrold 👏 😂

To be honest, I was expecting some bad crying face, followed by swollen eye-lid though. Nonetheless, It is a heart-pounding movie with cinematic beauties.

I look more like Paddington Bear than someone who's taking the over the iron throne 😒 AND MY FACE, I was trying to pull off "oh I look fierce" pose, yet this what turns out 😂 but at least I get to sit here first. Yes, I'm talking to you Jon Snow, Daenerys 😎 #GameofThrones #GoT7 #WinterIsHere #170717 (at The Ice Palace Theater)

When ambition encounters fears, it’ll result nothing but frustration. And that ugly side of “passion” turns intensely into obsession. Whiplash captures it in one whole intense, inspiring, and well-written story. Our hero, Andrew, is a young jazz drummer who aspires to be one of the greats. He is craving for acknowledgment and not to mention affection from both his family and his sadistic music teacher. The problem is, though, he is too afraid to take a stand. It makes him an a*hole at some points. The story is throughly moving, that I believed I could somehow play drums as well haha. Jazz is not a genre of music I usually jam on, but the movie can convincingly show me that the kind of genre is actually jam-able. The credit goes to the filmmaker with breath-taking talent, Damien Chazell whoohoo. The powerful and jaw-dropping performances from the leads, J.K. Simmons and Miles Teller, take the film to another level. They’re both brilliant. I was stunned. Final words, Whiplash gives me chills all the way from the start to its triumphant ending. It is definitely one of those movie that I will musclelessly recommend to literally everybody, in an un-low-key way haha. Mamal is coming. Run, guys, run! Mamal.

[SPOILER ALERT!] Archetypical chatterbox: Harry Potter and The Cursed Child

Different from my other review posts, Archetypical chatterbox will going to be a specially customized segment for casual reaction or discussion about movies or novels. By any means, it won’t be as well-researched, well-written and well-thought as the other reviews (not that my other reviews fall under all those categories, but you know what I mean. If not, just give it a shot - it’s free, who cares).

Legion season finale WAS SO SICK!

O my goodness that scene when he makes a tower out of the armed squad, with a single move of his hand, SUPER AWESOME. My baby is a bad-ass. He is so getting better in controlling his power. BUT, his parasite, the ugly monster with yellow eyes, the shadow king, whom David trapped deep down inside his mind, has succeeded to escape and beastly fights him back. He cant be forced to come out from David’s baby, unless he wants it himself. Poor David, his body cant handle the shocks it causes. UURGGH get lost, you unglymothafuckaa 😠

The ending gives me time to take a breathe. Farouk has Oliver as his new body host, and they go to ‘somewhere warmer’, blasting a very good piece of music. Btw, im telling you the soundtracks of this show are amazing. Ao I ws breathing fine until I saw the post cresit scene. I didnt see that coming, any**g 😭 why oh why?

This mind-bending show has devoured my mind and soul, and now i’m gonna have to wait until next year for season 2. How is that even possible?

Have you heard a story about the boy with fear?

David Haller has this vulnerability that is worth-protecting. However, at the same time, he has these God-like super powers that all superheroes and super villains desire to posses. Telepathy, telekinesis, super human strength, time travel, reality warping, et cetera, et cetera are all in him (it’ll take all day to mention all of em). The problem is, he has multiple identity disorder which makes him highly unstable and extremely dangerous. And @thatdanstevens in Legion can totally pull it off. He is so good in portraying this fragile, unstable, yet wickedly powerful character. That charming smirk and those big-blue-naughty eyes can totally attract your sympathy. Be careful, tho, he is a ticking bomb.

My newfound obsession. Legion. It’s bold, thrilling, and oddly amusing. You don’t always know what’s real and what’s not, but the bizarre-thrilling tone of the show gives you some genuine tense and excitement at the same time. It’s so cool that it departs itself from the traditions superhero series generally and usually present. Saying that it’s good is an understatement 👌👊
