FINAL POST

MARLEY & ME



here we start!
with our ending. (:


an end is always the start of a new beginning :D
songs, lyrics, videos, movies, influencing the young to innovate ideas and compete for fame, and popularity. do you think this is good? HAHA. make the young and new strive. what's bad? (:


Marley & Me.
very emotional... but it's heartfelt love, of an intended master and mistress and a clearance puppy.
(:
i like it very much especially when it's starring OWEN WILSON, and JENNIFER ANISTON! =D



the start of it is kind of classic. where the woman in the house wants kids but the man, John, is not prepared for its coming. thus, in order to give in to his love, he confessed his fear to his friend and fellow journalist Sebestian, who comes up with the perfect solution of getting a dog for Jenny.


then came Marley.
people around the neighborhood are all afraid of Marley. he is as if the world's worst dog, and also a best to the Grogans' family. who sees them through ups and downs of a family life. however, he's also the one who brings out the best in them. in overcoming problems to growing together as a family.

in this show, Owen Wilson's real parents also played as his parents in the show itself.

i cried especially much at the ending, where Marley has to be put to sleep. because he's too old for any form of repair. too weak to withstand more pains. i like how the dog acts in the show.
it's not much about the puppy initially, it's how it supports a relationship between Jenn and John.

it's pretty hard to communicate nicely to an animal, and worse, this is a neurotic creature of the universe. even the children also communicates to Marley nonverbally most of the time. there is one scene, about two nights before Marley passed away, Patrick pats and hugs him without saying anything and said that the dog knows what he has to say and feel towards him. even as i'm typing it down makes me want to cry. i'm feeling it as if i have a pet like Marley.
the scene and the mood it sets for us, with the background music and everything just make people feel as if they are part of the show, and it really touches people's heart.

this is totally like a child to them, because no matter how naughty it gets, how uncontrollable the dog is, they still loved him, cared for him, very much like any parent out there.

many parts of the show do not communicate to the audience directly as well, because they fast-forwarded the daily life that John had used to include into his column everyday. and most of it, describes how the family overcome problems with Marley, and through flashes of scenes, instead of him telling us directly.

i like this movie very much, partly because of Jennifer Aniston, partly because of Owen Wilson, and more likely how it relates to my life and the people around me.

I LOVE MARLEY (:

to those who have not watch this movie, you should really catch it soon. it's real and it's entertaining. and it also teaches us how to breed our love wisely.!
definitely not by getting rid of anything that seemed to get into our way.

SHARE LOVE! SPREAD lOVE (:


p.s. Marley in this show is a very good actor! ;)

I like the way you write, together with photographs inserts. Keep up the good work.

Whatever it is, I'm a fan of JENNIFER ANISTON.

hahah!

Marley and me, superduper heart warming movie!
It is one of the nicest stories that has ever been written about the love people share and also the love that they share with their dogs.

Many people today take up obligations but they never do think about the responsibilities that tag along the obligations and this movie or story gives us a fast forward view of how obligations to a dog is like.

Marley & Me. Another great movie. Starring Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston.

I like the way you relate the movie into our daily life. The movie reflects on our daily life.

Enjoyed reading your post. Most of movies. Hope to see you doing more reviews on movies.

Confession of a shopaholic is one you should do.

yes, even in the show, Jenny also wanted to get rid of the dog at one point of time. when she can't manage taking care of two kids and the dog. but after realizing that the dog has been with them for so many years already. and getting rid of it was also not a solution. and taking into account the happy times they spent together, and not forgetting their obligations to see it through his life.

so people, if you do not wish to take on a responsibility for a pet, then do not own one please :)

anonymous... i just caught Confessions of A Shopaholic last Friday. aweeeeeeeeeeeeeesome movie. haha. i like the twist at the end, of the green scarf lady. i didn't read the book though. but roughly now what it is like. the anonymous identity was only a stepping stone for her to work up towards the Alette magazine as a journalist, where all she needed to do was to scope out some great deals that's happening in town of no more than 5oo words each month. many twist and turns happened in the mid of her steps which eventually made her(Isla Fisher) fell in love with her boss, HUGH DANCY, who plays as Luke Brandon, also a wealthy entrepreneur. (:

that's sweet love right. sparks started to cross when they exchanged moves while dancing some "inspirational" dance. that's non-verbal communications too.

she managed to curb her urge to shop even the latest fashions in town, do catch it guys, it's worth your penny there for the romance (:
