My 2018 Top 10 Films ~ No. 5 - No. 1

*Note*
I've actually already drafted this earlier but forgot that I haven't finish it and only noticed that I didn't posted it yet until it's nearly the end of 2019. It's crazy to post top 10 2018 movies when 2020 is almost here. But hope you still enjoy it. Movies are timeless anyway. ;-)


Continuing on from my previous post, here are my top 10 films of 2018 - part 2. You will find my top 5 films of the year 2018 in this post. Did you missed the first 5 movies in my list? Well, you can go and click here for that.

Now, let's finish off the list.


No. 5 ~ Deadpool 2

The aforementioned character in the movie title itself is undoubtedly an awesome character, but don't ever think that that's the only good character in this movie because there are a whole bunch of them. Cable, Domino and Firefist were superb in this movie, and even the minor characters and cameos were amazing. I like the plot better than the first movie as well. I'm not sure what would happen to the film franchise after the Fox Studio acquisition by Disney but I hope they would continue with a sequel after this.

No. 4 ~ Avengers: Infinity War

The highest-grossing film of 2018 and the 4th highest-grossing film of all time as of this writing. Wow, such impressive records. The film made over $2 billion at the box-office worldwide and fairs well with critics too. The fight scenes in this film are so entertaining to watch and you can't help but root for the heroes to win. Alas, the plans fall through and the heroes lost (or did they? - I'm sure everyone knows the answer to that by now). I love the cliffhanger ending too, it's not only left a different tone to the movie but I'm also sure that it left a huge impact on the movie audience.

My 2018 Top 10 Films ~ No. 10 - No. 6

Now that I've completed the top 40 K-pop songs of 2018, it's time to move on to the films. OMG, this is long overdue! Let's go straight ahead to the chart.

Here are my top 10 films of 2018 - part 1. For this post, I will be counting down films from number 10 to 6.


No. 10 ~ Maze Runner: The Death Cure

This movie is filled with emotions. Main characters died left and right, it's just so heartbreaking to watch. It has a few nice surprises as well. I love the story and how it all tied up the trilogy nicely. While all the casts did great, I was particularly impressed with Rosa Salazar as Brenda, her character really shines in this movie compared to the previous one.

No. 9 ~ A Simple Favor

This is a funny movie, and it feels like the movie didn't even take itself seriously which makes it even more enjoyable for me. Anna Kendrick is excellent in this movie, her comedic timing is perfect and she's just very delightful to watch. Blake Lively is marvelous too and she steals every scenes she was in. There are many other good and fun characters in this movie played by a very talented group of casts (like Henry Golding from Malaysia) but Anna and Blake are the ones who did the heavy-lifting here. This is definitely their movie.

2018 Top 40 Songs: My Fave From K-pop Female Groups ~ No. 10 - No. 1

We're almost at the top!

Welcome to my final post for the top 40 songs of 2018 from female K-pop group. We're finally almost over with the list, and here they are, my top 10 songs for the year 2018.

- No. 10 -

Song: Just One Day

Group: Badkiz

On the surface, this sounds like such a simple and generic song but it somehow had such a strong impact on me. It's catchy-ness have made it stuck in my head for months and I really, REALLY, enjoyed the song. It's kind of an upbeat song but at the same time it has a bit of sadness in it. In my opinion, this is a really good song. The group have been changing its members for awhile now (and I heard it has changed it's lineup once again after this song) but I hope the group would stick around for much longer. Stay strong Badkiz!

- No. 9 -

Song: Not That Type
Group: gugudan

I love this group! Even though not all of their songs made it into my list before, I like their releases so far and "Not That Type" is definitely one of their best song. They lost one member but they still going strong as a 8-member group. The company really push Sejeong to be front and center; putting her in various variety shows, dramas, and even released solo songs and collaborations. But I think the rest of the members have their own charm and should be equally promoted as well. I think Mina has quite a few solo activities too but I'm not sure about the rest. I hope I was wrong and they are all in fact busy with their own activities...it's just maybe I wasn't aware of it.

- No. 8 -

Song: Ddu-Du Ddu-Du

Group: Blackpink

The song that became a worldwide sensation and should I say deservedly so. The song is edgy and catchy, and coupled that with the amazing music video, it's really hard to imagine it become other than the big sensation that it is. The group's music style and image make them accessible to the worldwide audience (and by that I mean not just the K-pop fans) and I think that is partially what makes them so popular internationally.

2018 Top 40 Songs: My Fave From K-pop Female Groups ~ No. 20 - No. 11

Welcome to the third post for my top 40 songs from female K-pop groups. Let's continue with the songs at number 20 until 11. Which songs do you think will be on this list?

- No. 20 -

Song: You & I

Group: Dreamcatcher

I love this song...a lot! And the "magic trick" that they incorporated into their choreography really makes their performance unique. This is the only K-pop group that has that J-Rock vibe that I know of which makes me cherish this group even more. I hope they would continue pursuing this concept because so far I think it's working for them.

- No. 19 -

Song: BAAM

Group: Momoland

From a girl group of a small company to making it big not only in South Korea but known to worldwide fans as well, 2018 really is a good year for Momoland, and deservedly so considering how good and catchy their songs are. "BAAM" is taken from their fourth EP, Fun to the World, and its music video is showing them embracing some of the world's culture which I think is reflecting their own appreciation to their Global fans who had embraced them.

- No. 18 -

Song: La Vie en Rose

Group: IZ*ONE

This is the debut song for the group that had been formed from the top 12 final contestants of the singing survival TV series, Produce 48. Personally, I think this is a really good debut song that suits well with the group. It has that romantic and sweet aspect to it that complement the pure and innocent image of the members. They can be fierce, as they had demonstrated in the TV series, but to go with this type of song is really a good introduction of the group to the fans that had been waiting for their debut.
