Happy Wednesday! This post comes to you from a Starbucks, because we are getting our pipes fixed at the house and so will not have water for the day. So I am hiding at Starbucks.
Continue readingUgh, I did not like this movie. I did not like it so much that I couldn’t sleep last night. So I am writing this review on very little sleep, therefore very grumpy, and hating it even more than my last review when I compared it to vomit. What a fun read this will be for all of you!
Continue readingI don’t even care about spoiling the SRK cameo. It’s the main reason most of you would want to watch it, and I wouldn’t be giving you necessary info without acknowledging that. But otherwise, a disgusting bowl of undercooked reheated greasy microwave pizza with phoney “masala” sauce that was eaten and then thrown up in a big brown pile with chunks on the sidewalk by a drunk hipster who was yelling at his girlfriend at 3am while you are trying to sleep. Did that description make you feel a little nauseated and unhappy? WELCOME TO MY WORLD! Midnight, I just got home, and I feel too sick to sleep.
Continue readingI was talking with my friend yesterday about how hating Ranbir makes us all so happy, and it made me think that I should repost something to sort of give background on how myself and our small community has for a while been seeing him as a little toxic.
Continue readingOkay, Spoiler time!!! I already put up the No Spoilers review if you just want a quick idea of what the film is like to decide if it is for you. Now, SPOILERS!
Continue readingI finally watched it! And I am NOT going to tell y’all to watch it. Just because it deals with spousal abuse for large parts of the film and it’s frankly hard to watch. But if that doesn’t bother you (or if you are okay fastforwarding), it also has a kick of two central performances.
Continue readingNanny is here so I am free for a bit and I realized the only thing that makes me feel better is to look up Alia/Ranbir quotes and get that nice sensation of irritation.
Continue readingHappy Monday! This post comes to you from the Halifax airport! We take a flight from here to Toronto and then Toronto to Chicago, and then I am finally home with Albie Dog by about 5pm Chicago time. Everything would be working perfectly except that my headphones broke so I have to hold the right ear in place with my hand. This is a bit of a problem because the headphones are both my preferred method of airplane entertainment and (way more important) the best solution for MASSIVE PRESSURE CHANGE EAR PAIN. So, I will just have to hold them on my head really tight with both hands and then it will be fine. Yes, I already checked, the airport stores are sold out.
Continue readingHappy Monday! I cut Albie Dog’s quick when I was trimming his nails last night, and now Alia is going to have Ranbir’s baby. It’s all very upsetting.
Continue readingWell, now we have a hint of plot. And it’s not….great. You know what is missing? A sense of humor. You have to have a sense of humor in these kinds of things or it just doesn’t work. You need that classic Marvel acknowledgement meta joke of “this is super weird, right?”
Continue readingWell, it’s Ranbir and Alia’s wedding day. And this is so upsetting that FilmiKudhi sent me a video of her son fussing about it. He’s not even 6 months yet, and even he thinks it is a bad idea.
Continue readingThis is what happens when I let things go! And I’m gonna have to keep letting things go because I’m still fighting fatigue. But y’all have to pick up the slack for me.
Continue readingOh boy! Finally fun things to talk about!!! Two new Alia teasers, and SRK put out a tweet that doesn’t make sense.
Continue readingSo I am listening to my crime podcasts, and I just hit two in a row where an older man grooms a teenage girl, which is CREEPY and WRONG. And it made me remember the one time rom-com makers successfully made it NOT creepy, and then think “why has this not been an Indian movie?”
Continue readingI did it! I saw a new movie, in theaters, with friends! And it was a Bhansali movie too, the WORST kind of movie.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! I am having cleaners coming today! I am excited. This afternoon, I am planning to stay home and enjoy the lovely cleanness.
Continue readingI’m gonna get back on a SCHEDULE!!! Through out the pandemic, keeping to a blog schedule has kept me sane. Throwing it out the window during moving week was NOT HEALTHY. So I’m gonna make an effort and do the posts that are supposed to go up on the days they are supposed to go up. With that in mind, Silly Sunday!
Continue readingDid you know real estate is stressful? Like, it combines money/relationships/shelter all in one thing? WHO KNEW???? Anyway, I’m in a high stress 24 hour period of my hunt (offer submitted, waiting to hear back, 50/50 chance it will work out) so I need DISTRACTION!!! Time for FanFic!
Continue readingHappy Monday! And happy day after Aamir day!!! Great way to start the week, even though I have my usual “ewww, Monday? Work? Yuch!” feeling.
Continue readingHuh, a trailer! It’s been so looooooooooooong since we had one of those!
Continue readingThis sounds dark, but it comes from a place of love. Some couples just should not be together! They will blossom and be happier apart.
Continue readingChristmas remakes! Okay, one of them isn’t technically Christmas, but it’s all family love and stuff, so it could easily be Christmas.
Continue readingThis is the most satisfying Shahrukh has made in the past 5 years. When people say “why does he have to be the hero?” or “why does he always do the same thing?”, this movie is the argument against that.
Continue readingLet’s check in on the world of light celebrity content and see what we can find! Nothing will ever be as good as Harshwardhan’s essay about “sneaker culture”, but I can always hope.
Continue readingWell, this is a movie that is very angry at authority figures! I can get behind that. The specifics of the message are maybe a little out of date, the GodMan is no longer as powerful in India as GodMob, but the general idea that blind trust in what you are told is bad, that’s a timeless message.
