Pathaan Week SRK Brackets Post! Which SRK is the Most Manly SRK???
Seems appropriate, right? All the Pathaan promotions are leaning heavily on the “older, experienced, confident” sort of SRK persona. So let’s figure out which of his roles in the past was the MOST adult man and not a boy kind of role. What a nice way to count down the hours until Pathaan release!

While I have been slowing down on movie watching and reviewing this year, Angie has been picking up! So we absolutely need to read through her reviews from the comments section and pick the best. This is not a comprehensive list, it’s just the ones that tickled me while reading through the archives.

Happy Pathaan Monday!!!!!! I’m taking the day off work on Wednesday, my plan is to get a pedicure and see Pathaan. Because I feel Shahrukh would appreciate freshly painted toenails.

Genevieve registered a complaint that Harsh in Tara vs Bilal played yet another manboy can’t talk about his feelings type of guy. Which made me think we should pull out and appreciate the alternative type of heroes! The ones who just handle things and do things without making a fuss about it.

Ugh, I am grump today. I am almost never grumpy, but today I am. It’s been overcast for 6 days straight, and the city is finally fixing our street which is good news but also means there is this irritating construction sound background noise all the time. So I think our Sunday WatchAlong needs to be something SUPER HAPPY.

Happy Wednesday! A week from today I take a day off work and go see Pathaan the very earliest show I can manage. And then see it again in the evening with friends who were too foolish to take the day off work.

Thanks to Genevieve’s fervent wish for a NOT romance, and the general “eh, 50/50” attitude of most of the rest of y’all, I’m going with Double XXL!!!
Continue reading2022 Best of Awards! Best Mustache
I am very much open to write in candidates for this one! I’m trying to find all the mustaches I can, but I know I am gonna be missing some. The only rule is, it has to be a mustache from a performance in 2022.

I was gonna get better this week about watching and reviewing new movies, and then literally half the staff at work got sick (’tis the season for colds, apparently), so I barely have time to write this post. WatchAlong now looks like my best bet for seeing some of the cool films y’all are recommending!

Wednesday is such an awkward day of the week for a movie release. I know it’s a holiday in India, but it isn’t anywhere else!!!!! Although I suppose the alternative would be us waiting two more days until Friday, and that’s no good.

Happy Pathaan trailer release day!!!! Not that I expect it to be a huge surprise in any way, SRK is a spy, Dips is a spy, John Abraham is evil, action-action-action. But still, fun to see more SRK, right?

Forget everything else, it’s Kirre’s BIRTHDAY! So obviously we watch whatever she picks, and she has picked Sanam Teri Kasam. A DCIB favorite. Which is unfortunately only available if you have stupid Eros on Prime, or on einthusan. But I think we will manage to survive.
