Forget the politics, the stars, the songs, all the rest of it. You may want to skip this movie just because I found myself checking the time every 15 minutes. That’s baaaaaaaaaaaad! Especially since I kept going “It’s only been 15 minutes??? That felt like an hour!”
Continue readingBhansali inspired me! Sangam is SUCH a good movie, and there is so much to consider in it, I think it is a perfect one for us all to talk about.
Continue readingHappy Sunday! I am maybe actually feeling healthy, but I don’t want to jinx it. Spent yesterday sleeping and reading and eating and trying to let my body kick the infection, and it MAY have worked? Still have 5 days of antibiotics left and I won’t feel really safe until I finish them all.
Continue readingHappy Fighter Release Day! I am SO EXCITED! I’m also still a little sick but hoping I can power through (and I will be wearing a mask because I am a good person).
Continue readingHappy Wednesday! I’m sick! Urgent care said maybe strep throat and gave me a prescription just to be safe (I am the reason for mega-bacterial resistant diseases, I feel SO GUILTY. But also very sick, so I’m willing to roll the dice and see if it cures me instead of waiting for tests to confirm). Important for you, I’m putting off seeing Fighter until Friday when I will hopefully be healthy again. So stay tuned! Review/discussion coming then!
Continue readingLet’s be talky talky! It’s a super cloudy overcast just plain BLECH day in Chicago which is a great time to cozy up and exercise our brain muscles.
Continue readingHappy Wednesday! It’s 10 degrees warmer in Chicago than it was yesterday, and yet still well below freezing.
Continue readingIt is soooooooooooooo cold in Chicago right now! So cold that the schools are closed just for the cold. So I want to huddle inside and think about SRK and warm myself from the inside out.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! I got my coffee, I let the dog out, I’m all tucked in for the morning. Who will join me in watching a lovely beachy movie? And if no one shows up by 20 minutes in, I’ll just shut down and watch by myself 🙂
Continue readingLet’s do this thing!!!! Hopefully it’s not too last minute (especially for the internationals). If it is, that’s okay, I’ll give y’all 15 minutes to join and then just watch on my own.
Continue readingIt’s supposed to snow all day Friday and part of Saturday, and then be FREEZING, so I won’t really want to go out this weekend. But I WILL want to take an imaginary trip to Goa for wise words from SRK.
Continue readingNot gonna just let Dips in Jawan sweep to victory, gonna force you all to THINK! And at least rank the others.
Continue readingTaking the top three songs in the categories of dance-love-sad, and putting them against each other! Is that fair? Don’t know! We will see! Write ins are still allowed!
Continue readingDon’t panic! You didn’t miss a news story or anything, it’s just super dark and grey and sludgy in Chicago right now and I’m consequently not doing great. Thus the 6 days of blog silence.
Continue readingDid best dance song, now best love song! Chemistry, lyrics, melody, all of that. What’s the best one?
Continue readingThis is mostly Dunki songs. Really good songs, really sad songs. I don’t love the movie, but the songs are perfect.
Continue readingWooo, 3 SRK movies this year! Which means we can do lots and lots of SRK themed posts to start off!
Continue readingHappy Wednesday!!! So far, this year has been pretty good for me. Nice New Years, manageable post-holiday work days, fixed Dunki which makes me happy, and scheduled Albie’s annual Vet appointment at a convenient time.
Continue readingThis is mostly for my own satisfaction. I liked the love story so much, and dislike so much that surrounded it, I just want to lay out how the movie could work if it was JUST love story and no comic relief.
Continue readingNew Years Day falling on a three day weekend seems to have made it even MORE likely that everyone has plans. As do I! My plans are, to recover from my very late night last night! Well, late for me. Not actually that late.
Continue readingI’m having my post-holiday meetup with Mark, the podcast producer, later this week. So I want really good specific feedback for him! I looked over your lovely comments on my previous post, and I’m filtered them down to specific points, and now I need MORE feedback.
Continue readingI don’t think that title is a spoiler for people who get it without warning? Unless you happen to know what my least favorite SRK Romance plots are, and even then it’s only a partial spoiler.
Continue readingToo me 9 whole days, the longest I have taken to see an SRK movie in theaters since Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, but I finally did it! And in the end, it was more Hirani than it was SRK.
Continue readingI’m thinking about moving it to the afternoon this year. Partly because I want to sleep in, partly because I want to make it convenient for more people!
Continue readingHappy Saturday!!!! I spent Wednesday sleeping and recovering, Thursday and Friday working flat out to make up all the work I missed, and now today, FINALLY, I get to see Dunki!!!!!
