My Favorite Hobby!!!

Watching movies has been an activity, an interest that I have been tagging along since I had learned to switch on the Tube all by myself. And ever since I have been engaging myself with the so-called Tube primarily for pleasure, gratification, time pass and even as an auxiliary activity with friends and girl friends even though the typecast of the screen has been evolved and changed from the family oldie 'Texla' Television to my current ‘i-pod Nano’. The screen display name has certainly changed and so does my eye fixation onto the display type but the ultimate motto have remained the same, i.e. “to watch movies and videos”. So, very well, it fits to describe "watching movies" as my hobby, may be my favorite hobby. After all a hobby is just an activity or interest pursued outside one's regular occupation and engaged in primarily for pleasure; avec plaisir.

This pleasurable auxiliary activity has also taken me beyond this physical world into the internet and I have been exploring this whole wide world using Internet explorer. In this jaunt I had discovered various hangout and so-called movie-gallery that really suits me and my type of movies. In the real world I am not a movie-goer just because I have been to PVR, IXOX or Multiplex only a countable number of times. But that doesn’t make me any compromise in my pleasurable auxiliary activity of my hobby. Furthermore, the intensity of my movie watching has been increased manifold. The practice of my movie watching lifestyle has taken me to various Fullsceen mode of Divx or Flv player @Dailymotion or @Veoh or @Stage6 or even @Youtube. I had even discovered new planets, a new world in its own called Phaseddl or Rapidshare, a place where you get almost everything you need but not necessarily what you want. And my domain of expertise in watching movies has been expanded from Hollywood, Tamil and Hindi films to European (French), Korean, Japanese Animation especially Ghibli Studios Production. I have been watching movies not only for the love of the art but also for the love of good-movies.

In this legal pirated planet of torrent and rapid share in this peer-to-peer network, limitations exist which is deemed to overcome by premium accounts which only Paypal or credit-card could buy. But thanks to some porn sites (possibly some hackers, white hat or red hat) for enlightening to cheat ones IP address and enabling me to downloads the DDL without any wait continuously. See, porn sites does have intellectual benefits besides being xxx i.e. extraordinary. As a result, I was able to see some of the latest Hollywood buzz even before they were released here in India. Bourne Ultimatum was one among them.

What I was trying to say that watching movie has been my love life favorite hobby and it has become an indistinguishable cultural mark in my ethos of life. The DVD movie set boxes are occupying a majority of my cupboard spaces and the soft-copy of all those dvd-ripped movies had conquered most of my physical HDD spaces (both internal & external). If this is what you called a “Movie Buff” then Yes that’s what I am, a Movie buff and one of the internet site calls me so after I had taken and submitted to their test. This is how the result read as...
