Sorry, this is more stuff that happened before Salman became famous. But it’s important! These early experiences are what define us as a person. You can’t understand Salman without understanding his family and background.
Continue readingHuh! This trailer is not at all what I predicted and the film looks like it might be far better than expected, in terms of performances, imagination, and topic. Yaaay! I love good movies!
Continue readingYou ready to put on your “SRK Fan/Expert” hats? Time for a discussion post! In which we can all debate the topic which we know and care about the most.
Continue readingHuh, kind of surprised I haven’t reviewed this film yet! Oh well, better late than never. Also, better waiting until it is easily available on youtube, for free, legally, with subtitles. And on some Netflixes, but not in America.
Continue readingI just did my Hindi Film 101 on Katrina, and it got me thinking about Salman and the need to do a series on him, instead of just dancing around the details of his life. So, here is my start! Starting with his father Salim.
Continue readingKind of a slow news day. I decided to ignore the stories that are about people talking about other people talking about things, because I hate those stories, and just focus on the ones that are actual things.
Continue readingHappy Monday! Such an odd week for me, on Wednesday I see Bharat and on Thursday I see Gene Kelly’s widow! Don’t know what she’s gonna talk about or anything, I’m just excited to be in the same room and, like, touch the hem of her garment.
Continue readingSecond time for this! I was gonna do 3 months the first time, and then I realized that release dates change way too last minute for that. So I’m trying about a month and a half at a go.
Continue readingI say “rerun”, but I actually did quite a bit of rewriting of this review, so it’s mostly totally new. Hopefully you like it!
Continue readingI couldn’t come up with any really good one idea for this week, so instead I’ll do a bunch of little ideas of movies Maddy could make next.
Continue readingA new anonymous comment just popped up on this old post, which made me reread it and go “hey, this is a great post!” So I am reposting it, just for happiness.
Continue readingI put up a discussion post yesterday, and now, what the heck, I am going to repost a fanfic on the same topic: bad endings that need to be fixed.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! I was up far too late last night, and now I have to run around doing things today. Partly because I am hoping to do absolutely nothing on Sunday. Maybe see John Wick 3.
Continue readingYes, it’s another discussion post! But one I am excited about and hope you respond to because I think you will all have ideas. What movie did you love, except for the ending?
Continue readingThis movie is so frustrating! So much good, and so much ANGRY MAKING. Not as bad as Jab Tak Hain Jaan, but not as good as it could/should be. Ugh, Yashji! Why you gotta disappoint me this way?
Continue readingWell, this is going to be hard for all of us! In honor of Maddy turning 49 (so old!), I am going to put up lots and lots of photos and you, poor people, have to play “Marry Sex Kill” with them. One of these Maddy’s you marry and build a life with, one of these Maddy’s you have for one night and never see again, and one of these Maddy’s you throw off a bridge. Brace yourselves!
Continue readingI hadn’t even considered writing this post until a few days ago when somehow we started talking about her. Which is a sign of how mysterious she is, that her past is such a vast emptiness we all somehow forget it even exists. We think of her as boring bland Katrina instead of considering the amazingness of her life and existance.
Continue readingOkay, I gave 3 options yesterday, and then in the comments you all came up with 3 more. And now I am torn! All 3 of them are wonderful!
Continue readingEven the new Netflix edit leaves on important question unanswered, does Madhavan ever find love? Harmless innocent sweet untouched by passion Madhavan? Is there a woman who will awaken the sleeping sex God inside of him? I say YES!
Continue readingCatherine in the comments gave me permission to be a Shahrukh fangirl instead of trying to cover other folks an equal amount, so I’m going to! HA! Also, I kind of don’t like Veer-Zaara? (don’t hate me!) So this review will be minimal fangirly.
Continue readingI’ve now seen this movie twice, with a nice long gap between viewings, which kind of lets me shake things out in my head in a better order. And I have watched the slightly clearer Netflix edit along with the theatrical edit. So I think it is time for me to consider what the film was supposed to be about.
Continue readingHappy Wednesday! Half way through the work week, woo-hoo! Is it half when I have Monday off? Or is Thursday half now?
Continue readingIs that title clear? I feel like it is a genre that we are all aware of, but maybe it is just me and my sister and Angie in the comments. Doesn’t have to be longingly and lustfully, but also doesn’t NOT have to be longingly and lustfully.
Continue readingWe’ve been talking back and forth a lot lately about the issues with Karan’s public image and how it does not reflect who he is outside of the limelight. At least, I don’t think so. And I wanted to go through the actual facts of his career, not how he presents himself but what he has accomplished behind closed doors, so we can take a look at Karan the Artist and Karan the Businessman. Most of this post is simply listing out and counting categories of films from Dharma productions.
Continue readingTwo little stories, which are both important enough to merit discussion. But not, like, a lot of discussion. From me that is. You can discuss all you want, I’m just saying this is going to be a short post.
