This is going to be a shallow dive. But should still be interesting, even if I just skim the surface of the topic.
Continue readingDiscussion Question: If You Could Show One American Movie to All of India, What Would it Be?
Opposite! I already asked the reverse question on the morning post, Indian movie for America. Easier in some ways for this crowd I think, not because we know more about India than Hollywood but just because we are used to introducing people to Indian films more.

Continue readingHappy 4th of July Week! Songs in Which American Looks AWESOME!!!!
Some of these songs, the rest of the movie has America looking terrible. But it only has the punch because you contrast it with the earlier “America is freedom and happiness and I love it here” beginning.

Thursday Watching Post: What Are You Reading and Thinking and Watching the Day After a Holiday?
Happy 5th! I’m right now driving from the vacation house to work directly, which means I have to bring Dog Hazel to work with me. But it’s okay, because all my coworkers are in love with her and my boss is out of town. This is Wednesday Watching a day late, because yesterday was a holiday.
Happy 4th of July! Here is the Annual NSFW Independence From Clothes Post!
I put this up last week, a wee bit early, but I am reposting it today. Partly because I am off at the vacation house with no internet access and I need something to fill the day, but also because this is a very in depth and comprehensive post and it did not get nearly the views it deserved last week, so I think you should all give it a second look. There is EVERY actor!!! From Sunil Dutt to Suniel Shetty to Aditya Roy Kapur and even Harshwardhan Rane. A whole fireworks display of manly flesh. Oh, and I added in a few more photos even since last Wednesday. Really, it is EPIC. Continue reading

The 4th of July is on a Wednesday this year, so no TGIF. But I couldn’t forgo this post, especially since there are updates to it for this year, so I am putting it up early. And sneaking it out mid-afternoon on a Thursday, hoping that it doesn’t permenantly damage my brand. Whatever, it’s a long week, sometimes you can’t wait until Friday!
Happy 4th of July! Let’s Look at Some American-Indian Songs!

And I am going to have a little song festival of American-themed Indian movie songs. As always with these posts, if I missed one you like, just mention it in the comments!

TGIF: In Honor of the 4th of July, I Declare Independence….From Clothes! (NSFW)
I was going to do something slightly more highbrow. Indian movie stars with the American flag or something. But then I thought “No! Why overthink it?” And so our theme for this week is a Declaration of Independence….from clothing!
Happy 4th of July! Let’s Look at the Most American of Indian Songs!
Happy 4th of July! I am celebrating by locking my doors and fervently ignoring the massive celebration going on at the end of my street. It’s just so hot! And crowded and loud and blech!
