I don’t actually think these are “better” endings, I just like happy endings, even if they aren’t true to the rest of the narrative. Every film should end with a marriage and a baby and a happy reprise of the title song. So in my headcanon, these are how these movies end. Happy happy!
Continue readingI was browsing through the archives and ran into this post, and it is really quite good! Deserves a repost for sure.
Continue readingI think I have to have a hot dog on the way home, don’t I? For the holiday? Anyway, I wanted to do photos of Indian actors eating hot dogs, but I couldn’t find any. So instead I will take “hot dog” in a great sense.
Continue readingThis is nice, I can do a repost for both Shahrukh Summer and Katrina’s birthday. And we can consider how we all feel about this movie, still as passionate as before or has time weakened the pain?
Continue readingHappy Wednesday! I have had such a weird work week, highlights so far include a customer yelling at me because I dared to take a vacation day when she needed me, and my boss telling the story of when he passed out while running a marathon and ended up with short term amnesia. Weird!
Continue readingOops, missed this! Oh well. In her honor today I will put up this post, and some selected Katrina reviews.
Continue readingShoot, I forgot the donation post for yesterday. Oh well, I think I forgot the promotion post last month, so this is a nice balance.
Continue readingWell, this is heartening! In India (shockingly [sarcasm]) Super 30 is doing well in multiplexes and poorly on the mass circuit. Because poor people don’t like movies about poor people, rich people like movies about poor people. But Super 30 is also kind of DOA overseas! Wooo for the global market! Realm of taste and common sense and not being interested in poverty porn! (figures from bollywoodhungama)
Continue readingIt is extremely hot here, which also means I have gotten very little sleep for the past couple nights. So no deep thought post today, silly post! And anyway, I spent forever on the Deep Thought post yesterday, and it’s still got almost no views, so what’s the point?
Continue readingThank you Filmikudhi for suggesting this idea! And the films Bachaana and Cake. I haven’t watched either of them yet, but they look great!
Continue readingThis isn’t really a discussion post, but it isn’t a 101 exactly either. It’s just it’s own thing for us all to consider.
Continue readingWell, this was disappointing. I was hoping for something a little lighter, but instead it is all very guns and black leather. Oh well, it’s just the first teaser.
Continue readingHappy Monday! I had an active exhausting weekend and then stayed up too late last night, which means I am kaput today. So, ask me questions! Help me stay awake!
Continue readingI love this movie so much. To a really unreasonable degree. I can justify it as a fun entertaining film, I can’t exactly justify my blind passion for it above all other films. Oh well, the heart wants what the heart wants.
Continue readingThis is even sillier than “what is his best hair” or “what is his best costume”. But it’s summer, I have no seriousness left in me.
Continue readingI forgot about this post! It is pretty old, and quite good. So I am hopeful those of you who read it won’t mind reading it again, and those of you who haven’t are in for a treat!
Continue readingThis was the slowest day for comments I have had since, like, I started the blog! And I have decided it is because all of my regular readers and commentators are good people who were off at the national immigration enforcement protests this weekend. Don’t know if that is true, but I choose to believe it because it makes me feel better as a blogger and as a person.
Continue readingThis is a movie that is a bit hard to find, and isn’t discussed much, but every time I watch it I am impressed by how unusual and high quality it is, and how unusual and high quality Hrithik’s performance is.
Continue readingHrithik has had an oddly eventful life. Besides the movie-star thing, there’s just a lot of stuff that happened! And so I have to do a Part 2, even though he is only 45.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! I get to hang out with my parents and my dog and not do much of anything. Maybe go to the cook out in the parking lot of the grocery store. Or a dog park. But you all can chat!
Continue readingWell, that was a bad movie! I already put up a no spoilers review that explains how and why it was bad without revealing more of the plot than was in the trailer. You can read that and then not waste your time on this review. Or you can read both! Whatever you want.
Continue readingWell, that was a bad movie! In a frustrating way, because it is trying to sell a lie as the truth. I am fine with movies selling lies, that’s kind of what fiction does, but what bothers me is when it packages that lie as a truth.
Continue readingMostly Hrithik is handsome enough not to be able to do wrong. But within the realm of stunningly handsome, I feel like there are still slight variations that will allow us to pick the best options.
Continue readingMy sister turns 36 today. She’s ooooooooooooold! Or, to put it another way, she is a multiple of 3 which is her favorite number, so that’s a good year (she’s a math teacher).
Continue readingThis is the third time I’ve posted this review, but I’m just gonna keep posting it! This was a really big deal movie, it deserves to be talked about again and again and again.
