Fun post! I am arbitrarily limiting myself to 16, that’s what is going to make this hard. Feel free to speak up in the comments with “swap [blank] for [blank]”

Thought Post: Why Do We Like SlashFic FanFic?
This is barely a thought I thought, but I still wanted to share the thought I thought I thought.
Continue readingDaily Hrithik Shipping Post: War Sequel!!!! What Jodi Do We Want Next?
I have Ideas!!!! And you can pick and choose among them. Don’t limit yourself, if this is like the Bond or Mission Impossible films, it could go on and on and on with a different love interest each time. Pick one, or two, or three!

I skipped these posts last month because they are so naggy, but then I thought I’ve gotten new readers since then, maybe they want this information and I should provide it to them.
Continue readingMonth of SRK: 17 Southern Films I Would Remake with Shahrukh
Well, this will be a very boring post for those of you who aren’t familiar with southern movies! Although I will also try to give a brief plot summary so you can see why I think they would work well for him.
Continue readingWednesday Malayalam: Ente Ummante Peru, A Story About Mothers and Sons
Such a nice little movie! Not the best ever, but one of the best recent Malayalam films that is currently readily available streaming. And Tovino looks cute.
Continue readingWar Movie Misc. Discussion Post
Well, I saw it for the second time last night and there were a couple cool things I noticed this time that I want to mention. And Alisa alerted me to an interesting interview with the director. And Hrithik is still hot. All of these things made me want to do a kind of grab bag post of it all.

Happy Wednesday! I had a lovely lovely day yesterday, and now I am at work and sleep-deprived, the price I pay for a lovely lovely day.
Continue readingUpcoming Movie Reviews: Brothers Day, Enakkul Oruvan, Billu, Chak De! India
Yaaaaay, a new Prithvi movie is on Prime. Not a great one, but a new-to-us one. And I just remembered a Tamil film that I really loved that I should repost the review for.
Continue readingMonth of Shahrukh Discussion Post: Lover, Father, Son, What Do You Want From Your Shahrukh?
Rachel and I were just talking in the comments about how confusing Ek Ladki Ko Dekha is because you don’t know if you want Anil as your father or your husband. And then I started thinking about how Shahrukh has so many roles with the same problem.
Continue readingMonth of SRK: 18 Best Shahrukh Movies, Ranked
More discussion! It occurs to me that I do a variation of yesterday’s post and today’s post every single year, and they are probably never quite the same. Oh well, I am allowed to change my mind.
Continue readingMonth of SRK: 19 Best SRK Performances, Ranked
Oh boy! Get ready to fight with me! Or discuss or whatever. We haven’t had nearly enough discussion yet in this Month of SRK. But hopefully this is a topic you will all have opinions on. What I included, what I left out, the order I put it in.
Continue readingFilm Companion Publishes Homophobic Article
Urgh, I hate responding to stuff! It’s always so mean, picking apart some other writer’s words. But in this case, it is hate speech that has been given a platform by a site I respect and which I know many of you read, so I feel a moral obligation to discuss it. (thank you for the link Alisa! Otherwise I would have remained ignorant/the article would not get the response it requires)
Continue readingDaily Hrithik Shipping Post: What Other Films Has He Had Chemistry With His Co-Stars?
Sorry Tiger, I’m dropping you. Ultimately you just aren’t that interesting. But let us take a look back at Hrithik without Tiger and with someone else. What other films has he managed to create similar chemistry with his co-stars?
Continue readingNews Round-Up: Casting Rumors of Future Films! 2000s Are Back, Suniel, Preity, and Maddy Are All Rumored
Everyone decided to start the work week by giving bollywoodhungama stories that may or may not be true depending on what the future holds. I should join in! I can tell bollywoodhungama that I am currently planning to make a flash mob youtube video that will go viral. Will I? Doesn’t matter! The story is that, as of this moment, I am PLANNING to do so.
Continue readingMonday Morning Questions Post: What Do You Want to Ask Me on Columbus Day?
Happy Columbus Day! I am working, as are most people in America. Which is kind of okay really, considering Columbus was a rapist slaver. Although the Ohio town that is named for him is pretty great, I would happy spend a day celebrating that. Or, “indigenous people day”, which is the more popular alternative and really a generally good idea.
Continue readingDaily Hrithik-Tiger Shipping Post: What Other Casting Options Would We Use for War?
Let’s recast this sucker! Mostly so I can make it female-female, but I would also be okay with male-female.
Continue readingMonth of SRK: 20 Crazy Alternate Theories for SRK Movies (What if SRK and Kajol are biological siblings in K3G and only Amitabh knows it?)
These aren’t right, or true. But they kind of fit and I find it really interesting to sometimes think about theories that kind of fit.
Continue readingSunday ReRun: Koyla, Shahrukh’s Best Action Role
Okay, pretend the mullets don’t exist. This is a really good movie! And it gives Shahrukh way more action and excitement and kind of classic “hero” stuff than any other film. All without losing his essential feminism.
Continue readingDaily Hrithik-Tiger Shipping Post, a Screenshot Album
I thought I had gotten it out of my system, but apparently not. Also, it’s Saturday so I don’t have to think and be mature. For the good of us all, I am now going to comb through the songs and trailers for the best possible images. And then we can use them to decorate our “Hrithik+Tiger= Tru Luv 4Ever” clubhouse.
Continue readingMonth of SRK: 21 Gun Salute (Just Cute Shots of His Arms)
You know the other years I did like serious in depth analytical posts of his performances and characters and stuff? Somehow this year has turned into something far far more frivolous.
Continue readingSaturday Small Talk: Chat Away While I Do…..Nothing?
Is this possible? I truly have nothing to do on a weekend? No new film I have to rush off to, no household responsibilities, no family anything? It just doesn’t seem right!
Continue readingMonth of SRK: 22 Moments of Heartstopping Honesty in His Performance
Sorry, another descriptive post! But you still have the tuxedo post from yesterday to dream over if you want.

Oh boy, a Big Thought post! As always with these posts, every single point and discussion is TM Me, so if you find yourself repeating them somewhere else on the internet, please please give proper attribution. There is nothing more depressing than when I end up on some other site and realize a post or comment is just my ideas repackaged and relabeled under someone else’s name.
Continue readingFriday Classics: Paheli, a Doubling Tale
Well, I still think the ending doesn’t work, but otherwise this is a really interesting film. Especially in the less obvious themes. Which, again, failed in the ending. Sigh.
