Culture Differences...!!! Is it contageous?~from movie perspectives~

Highlights...!!!!

Have you ever wonder why Korean's drama are so full of smiling people whereas Indian movies' are pack with sadness and cries?
I'm not a fan of these movies and drama's but sometimes i do enjoy watching it (not occasionally) :-p
Malay's movie is quite complicated (they try to make it complicated) by adding all of this emotions and conflicts (not really my thing) :-p
Indonesians' and Thais' are stuck with their "ghost" stories (as if their country is full of those things) and Singaporeans still making sitcom in studios and their drama seems a bit dull (i think they are improving now) :-)
Don't let me start on those Filipinos' because their story-line are still the same for the past 10 years (same with Indonesians' drama)...
Arabians' is among those which i don't even understand what they are trying to figure out (maybe due to language barrier and stuff)...Russian movie is always about teenagers conflicts (i don't know why) and war... (no surprise there...)
From all of this traits, you can see that most of these country try to brought up a trademark which (maybe) reflecting their country's enigmas', problems' or maybe pride and glory's :-p but does it effecting the other country that receive those inputs?

It does on me...!!!
For someone that (most of his time) sitting in front of his "magic box", learning other culture is somehow dull in the sense of the culture ingenuity itself. How am i suppose to clarify those things that i see? Is it real? Do Japan is full of monsters???? OMG...!!! :-p
Somehow, when we watch those pictures...we tend to "think" that we already know that particular part of the world and it's a greatest mistake when we approach them and say "hey nigga...! what's cookin homie...?"
~you can get kill~ haha :-)



Versatile & Traditional...!!!
I always have a favor towards those American's and Japanese movies and drama (with a good reasons)...because for me personally, they not only create those story-lines for the sake of sugar cult it, they also consider the social interaction and also some improvement in quality of life...
Take Japaneses' movie and drama for example, it's always full of good human morality and goodwill in a person...I did not mean that other country's didn't try to insert this element in their screen, but i am suggesting that only a few that actually highlighted it (and make it obvious)...


How does it relate with one cultures?
Well, to be honest, since I've learned other cultures through movies and dramas', it seems that their ways has effecting my thinking, verbals, styles, accents, perspectives, social interactions', and many more (as if i am not myself at all~let along a true Malaysians)...well, aren't we all the same (don't tipu lah...!!! )
My ways of living is my culture, and when it has been effected through this inputs, indirectly, it does effect my culture...and when i socialized, it will drag those people around me (if they accept) and this cycle will get bigger and bigger....(scary doesn't it) :-(
