(This is a re-posted post from last year, because I am lazy.) There really aren’t as many connections between Ireland and India as you would expect. They both start with “I”? They are both former British colonies? Their flags are confusingly similar? The both have disputed territories to the north? But what few connections I could remember, I have pulled up and highlighted, on this, the ridiculous made-up unofficial international Ireland celebration day.
Continue readingHello! I am waiting for the washers to be available, so I am knocking out one more random post while I wait.
Continue readingIs this the best post for me to put together while fighting a migraine? Oh well, I have to do something while I wait for the pills to kick in. Let’s get ANGRY!!!
Continue readingIt’s hilarious. And I’m having a busy Saturday and my head hurts, so I don’t want to do a real post, instead I am going to share the doggie funny with you all!
Continue readingOnce again, I forgot and skipped February. Oh well, it was a depressing month, maybe no one would have liked me if they had found me then anyway.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! I’m going on a trip! Not for 6 days, but this is my last weekend before, so I have to do a million things to get ready.
Continue readingI can’t believe I haven’t reviewed this movie before! It’s so good, and so different from really anything else out there. Thoughtful, complex, and with a hero who is more about quiet thinking than quick action.
Continue readingOops, I skipped last month! Oh well, think of it as a Valentine Present to you all, you got to skip this boring boring post in February.
Continue readingThis is SUCH a good post! I put in a lot of a work and it is generally wonderful, and then for whatever reason there wasn’t a lot of traffic last week, and hardly any comments (except for me and Angie saying to each other “why aren’t there more people here?”), so I am reposting it.
Continue readingMy first thought was lullabies, but “sloth” isn’t about sleeping, it’s about laziness. So I am going with Miss Braganza’s idea of lazy manboys as the best representation. And there are so many lazy manboys in Indian film!
Continue readingNeed a little pick me up this morning? I am here for you! Mr. Albus Barkeridge has a bow tie.
Continue readingI watched it! Such an interesting movie. A collection of short stories with big name stars and a great visual aesthetic. And all produced by Nani, yet another reason to love him.
Continue readingShoot! I forgot this entirely and I have nothing prepared! Oh well, I will repost from last year I guess.
Continue readingThis is fun! Kind of a “state of the studio” post, looking at where Red Chillies came from and where it is now, post the release of Badla.
Continue readingHappy Pi Day! One of my co-workers made and brought in three separate pies, apple and banana cream and key lime. (and if you don’t know about this holiday, it is because today is March 14, or “3/14” or “3.14” as in “Pi”)
Continue readingI am so excited that this movie is on Netflix! I was all set for it to be streaming on some obscure platform and I’d have to encourage you all to try to track it down. And instead, it’s right there! On Netflix!
Continue readingFinal post! Views have slowed down rapidly, but the nice thing with a streaming series is, I can just have these posts available and wait for more people to finish the series and then come check in. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingLast character post! I have a lot to say about these two, because it feels like there are a lot of interpretations of them, and the series never really landed on one or the other.
(oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
I’m combining these two, because their storyline was so interwoven in this season. Plus, interest in the MiH posts is dwindling so I want to get them over with. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingHa, Karan/Arjun! Anyway, this is the character discussion post for the second lead, Arjun. I find him an interesting character, but also a lot less opaque than Tara/Sobhita. So, a lot less to discuss. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingHappy Wednesday! Halfway through the week after Daylight Savings started! I am delighted to drive home with the sun still out, but I am also very sleepy and looking forward to the weekend.
Continue readingFun fun! I don’t think I’ve done this since Jab Harry Met Sejal maybe? It’s a combination of the characters being written in such a way that there is a lot to talk about, and there being enough people interested for us to have a real conversation.
(oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Well, that took me 48 hours to finish! A sign of a very good show, considering I had to go to work in the middle of that. And sleep. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingFinally, some happy couples! Of course, they are the ones who mostly avoid the whole wedding insanity. Which is why we only seem to see bad people in this show, the ones who buy into the need for the expensive showy wedding. (oh, and index of all my Made in Heaven reviews is here)
Continue readingI have been in twitter lockdown for the past month or so as a little mental health treat to myself, so I missed this and my friend had to send me the link and shame me for being a bad fan. But whatever, I was out there not being on twitter and enjoying sunshine and happiness and people!
