This was a lowkey adopt-a-versary this year, just the two of us, he got an extra long walk and a cookie from my parents and a present that I ordered last minute because I almost forgot. But the People of DCIB requested an Albie photo post in honor of his Special Day, so here you are!
Continue readingOh boy! Villains! Far fewer than the hero rounds, although not as much fewer as you would think. He played a villain a lot! And there is one tie, again.
Continue readingHappy Monday! And happy Adopt-A-Versary to Albie Dog! I’ve had him 3 years now, which is why he is so calm and wise and mature (not really).
Continue readingWell that ending wasn’t….great. But good news! I think we can fix it if we just think it through a little bit.
Continue readingWell this was FASCINATING!!!! And I am sure I am going to continue to have thoughts over the next few days, especially as I discuss it with you.
Continue readingOkay, two episodes left and I still have NO idea what the ending will be! That is a sign of a very well constructed series.
Continue readingThis is just a reminder, next Sunday, we are discussing an obscure children’s book that I personally quite like and also think you all would find it a fun light quick read. We all have graduate degrees (mostly)! We should be able to read a 100 page children’s book!
Continue readingHuh, this series is surprising me with how good it is. I thought it was just gonna be a fluffy thriller with Madhuri at the middle, but it’s really digging deep on some interesting things. Also, seriously, even if you don’t watch the whole series, go 33 minutes into episode 4 and watch that scene. It’s no spoilers, it’s fine out of context, and it is just beautiful.
Continue readingIt’s all moving so fast! Just a few days ago the list was so long no one could manage it. And now I expect some HEATED discussion. Also, there were 2 ties, so it’s 7 brackets now.
Continue readingOh goodie! Let’s all watch together and discuss in episode pairs! It’s legitimately good too. Not Made in Heaven good, but closer to it than most other things. Plus, tons of in jokes for industry obsessed folks like on DCIB.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! February is hitting me like a ton of bricks this week, so I am VERY happy to have a nice fun silly movie to watch on Saturday morning. Either through youtube (if you use a VPN, or live in Europe), or einthusan for the rest of us.
Continue readingI am just so so so so SO excited to share this film with all of you! Naseeruddin Shah plays twins, one evil and one stupid. And there’s enchanted anklets. And, my favorite part, a random goose! I don’t care that the whole reason I was scheduling it this week was that it is on youtube and now it isn’t, I STILL WANT TO SEE IT! We will survive with einthusan.
Continue readingWhen I was going through his filmography, I realized there are a fair number of SRK VILLAIN characters too!!!! And we should rank them as well. Use whatever you want to judge them, best people, worst people, most entertaining, best acted, whatever.
Continue readingWell, I am very disappointed in you all. I put up 22 Brackets to vote in, and only 5 people voted. Let’s see if we can do BETTER now that we are down to only 11. Or do you want Shahrukh to think you don’t care?????
Continue readingHappy Wednesday! I may or may not have a friends movie night tonight, still waiting on confirmations. But if I DO, I am considering showing them all Love Love Love. Because it is just that good/bad!
Continue readingThis is wonderful! Shemaroo is releasing so many movies all at once on their youtube channel! We have a great smorgasbord of funky old Masala.
Continue readingI am just DELIGHTED by this! The ad itself of course, but also that after being the face of Pepsi and all those other international brands, he is selling Thums Up. It’s a great Brand SRK decision to be the face of India.
Continue readingIt’s the last week of February! I feel like spring will never come! So I am bringing in some sunshine and doing a quick bracket of Shahrukh contests! I think it will pleasantly distract us all, right?
Continue readingFarhan got married! And NONE OF YOU TOLD ME!!! I thought we understood each other, I thought we had a dynamic of you telling me things and then me researching and writing posts. I can’t be out there trying to learn stuff on my own! Social Media is TERRIFYING!
Continue readingHappy Monday! Isn’t this exciting, one of my co-workers alerted us by putting it on the work calendar, tomorrow is 2-2-2-2-2 day!!!
Continue readingI watched this for a film class and it was on the one hand a romance, and on the other hand an odd interesting way of telling an immigration story that was almost entirely internal and emotional.
Continue readingHappy Saturday!!! Time to watch a bad 90s movie while we all have coffee and wake up!
Continue readingThis is a bit of an off one, and I will be curious how many of you bother to read it. It’s short and easy, should only take you maybe 3 hours. You probably can’t get it from your library, but you can buy it on kindle or order it. And it’s such an interesting oddity I just want to share it with others.
Continue readingThank you Shemaree, you are the most wonderful of them ALL. You post movies, legally, for free, with subs, on youtube. I Love Love Love You!
Continue readingI am one of those disgusting people who always wakes up bouncing with energy and happiness. Have been my whole life. Used to drive my parents crazy. Part of this of course is that I wake up singing. “Morning Has Broken” is good, so is “Oh What a Beautiful Morning!” And then there are the Indian options. Let’s see how many we can think of so I can vary my delightful morning seranades!
