VALENTINE MOVIES OF ALL TIME

image courtesy of google image

Love! Love! Love! Love is in the air again as we approach that season again. I have asked many Kenyans to give me a list of the kind of movie that starts up the waterworks and makes them believe again. Just like true love, the perfect romance movie is hard to find.
Of course we have high standards- we want palpable chemistry between the stars, enormous odds for our lovers to overcome…and a devastating death scene never hurts.
From rom-coms to epic tearjerkers and everything in between. Here is a list of movies chosen by Kenyans that make them fall in love all over again. Do you agree? Send us your list to bukhungubukhanga@gmail.com and we will definitely give you a shout.

1.       Sleepless in Seattle (1993)
2.    The notebook (2004)
3.      Jerry McGuire (1996)
4.       An officer and a gentleman (1982)
5.    Gone with the wind (1939)
6    Titanic (1997)
7.       Casablanca (1942)
8.       Pretty woman (1990)
9.       Dirty dancing (1987)
10.   Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961)
11.The proposal (2009)

In Bollywood, the list goes something like this:


1)      Kal Ho Na Ho
2)     Mughal-E- Azam
3)      Hum Aapke Hain Kaun
4)      Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge
5)      Dil
6)      Kuch Kuch Hota Hai
7)      Andaz
8)      Bobby
9)      Jaante Tu Ya- Jaane Na
10)   Awara
11)   Maine Yaar Kiya

Suggestions for TPF 6

The Tusker Project fame is growing pretty well, getting fatter and larger year by year. That is a good sign, that we have something good going. That is great because now we have even more competitors, a longer period for scouting for contestants - which is awesome because it is here that you get all the comedy - and much more importantly, brings East Africa together.

There have been great improvements to the competition ever since its debut.

As readers of this Blog, what would you suggest that TPF does better? What can they do differently? What can they add to what we already have? Do you want them to get rid of some stuff? Are there enough countries represented?

I was talking with my friends the other day and the idea that we should make TPF an Africa wide event came up. You can guess what the reaction to that was. We have a great thing going in East Africa and we should make it the best thing on TV, not only in East Africa but also world-wide. That is what seemed to be the agreement among my friends. Do you support this?

I think that is what we should do. We should publicize it, bring it to the market in a way that people will be absorbed into it. We should strive to produce quality content for viewers and fans. Lets use social media and every media we can get our hands on to market this event. More Bloggers, Readers, Tweeters, Facebookers and the ever growing Google+ And who knows, we may end up with a world-wide obsession! Now, I would love to see that.

What do you think? Make your suggestions here and hopefully, we can positively influence the next TPF 6. I can't wait!
