I don’t care that Genevieve did an impassioned plea for Paragu! She’s just gonna have to keep waiting. Maybe for her birthday? Genevieve! Tell me your birthday! I like Daawat E Ishq, it is fun and happy and a lovely way to start the day, and Pari only gets married once (hopefully).
Continue readingMy 4 year old Nephew A gave a BIG lecture last night which my sister videotaped for us and I transcribed. Turns out, surprisingly wise!
Continue readingHappy Thursday! It’s been another difficult week for me and I want something FUN to look forward to on the weekend! What could be funner than a watchalong?
Continue readingHappy Monday! Or “blech Monday”, to put it another way. It’s super overcast and just dreary in Chicago. But at least I have y’all to cheer me up!
Continue readingReady to get your happy on? Genevieve asked for suggestions for very happy low impact romance books, and I feel like this is a group that will have Ideas.
Continue readingHappy Thursday! Ugh, not a great week for me. Very stressy and rainy and yuchy. But! Hearing from y’all always cheers me up! Even if I don’t have time to reply to your comments. So, Wednesday Watching!
Continue readingHappy Monday! I spent the second half of last week with a cold, able to do a full day of work-work but with no energy for anything else. But I slept and slept and slept all weekend, and now I am perky and ready to blog again!
Continue readingYes yes, Jawan has added a strong competitor to the field. But does that mean we forget Dear Zindagi? Or Raees? Or Dilwale? Or any of the other nice hot mature SRK versions?
Continue readingThere seems to be a great diversity of opinion here, and I think we should dedicate some time and space to this Very Important Issue.
Continue readingThere aren’t really any spoilers in this, which is kind of the point of the movie. These huge horrible things happen to society as a whole, not just to the Main Characters as part of a movie plot. But the film does force you to look at this horrible things and really accept that they are happening every day.
Continue readingJust in case Jawan was a little too dark and a little too strong for you, I have a palliative solution for you. And also, nice stuff to talk about.
Continue readingI saw it a second time last night, with a big group of people who all gave their opinions on the ride home, and now I have slept and processed and I have allllllllllllll of Saturday to write this review and really try to dig in to what the film was saying.
Continue readingUgh, long day at work, brain fried, can’t right a real review. Maybe on the weekend after I do a watch 2. But for now, I just want to talk to y’all about the bits I find interesting!
Continue readingSUCH A GOOD MOVIE!!!! So glad I took time off work to see it, TOTALLY worth it, and I was so swept away I even forgot to feel guilty for skipping work!
Continue readingHappy day before Jawan!!!! Or possibly day of Jawan in some places? But I’ve been burned before with the whole “time zone lets you see it early” philosophy. Sometimes the show is canceled after you buy tickets, sometimes you show up at the theater and they say “yeah, we can’t show it yet”. This is what I am telling myself so I don’t get super jealous!!!!
Continue readingHappy Tuesday! It was a three day weekend in America, so I skipped Monday questions on Monday and moved to today. More importantly, it is a SHAHRUKH RELEASE WEEK in America!!!!
