Only less than 56 hours (55:22) till the New 2016 Year in brand new clothing. ...With champagne about to be floating.
Every single day new babies are being born, and every single day children are dying.
In the jungles of the Equator new species are discovered almost every day...flowers, plants, insects, birds, ...
In the oceans of the Earth new fish species are discovered @ different and deeper depths.
Life is death, and death is life. Life without music is like life without soul.

Last night I revisited
MI5, just because ::
Some people never see a film more than once, some people never see a film @ all, and some people see the same film a dozen times, or more.
If you happen to be part of the third category, you might find stuff that you didn't see the first time around, and it can bring your appreciation on a higher level, or it can bring it too to a lower level. ...With repetitive viewing experience @ different times and stance of mind, we adapt to new revelations on a higher plateau or to accentuated deceptions. That's what humans feel emotionally...all depending of time, space and circumstances...more or less joy, and pain and between.
This time around my overall rating went from 79 to
70. ...But it's more on the film level itself, and not on its technicalities. ...That, might be for another day.
With art, films, music, wines, paintings, sculptures, ...there is nothing definitive @ all times. The value is not in the object, or its financial appraisal; it's in the emotional reception.
...And only @ a certain time when we were in touch. What we lost somewhere we gain elsewhere. ...Life and death is just part of the universe.
Tom Cruise is having a good run with Mission: Impossible movie franchise. ...And The Man from U.N.C.L.E. might not survive. ...
C'est la vie.
And scores change with time, like wines that aged more or less into one direction than another.
Last word: It's still worth it, and tomorrow you never know. I still prefer MI4 personally. ...And I am not affected by movie critics; I consider myself movie critic influence-free.
...And like with any other form of creative/artistic expression. ...Films are reflections of our culture; we can see through them how man evolved.
And next week, exactly seven days from now, I am looking big time forward to 'Sicario' and its musical imprint with emotional footprint.
Denis Villeneuve is a filmmaker that I am a little familiar with, and I appreciate everything that I've seen so far from him. ...It's a mix of
cinema verite interceded with supportive atmosphere (visually and auditory). ...It has substance, philosophy, reality and conclusion. ...And unlike Mission: Impossible. ...One to five. ...Just different type of entertainment...for different senses.
