I’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 The specifics of the message are maybe a little out of date, the GodMan is no longer as powerful in India as GodMob, but the general idea that blind trust in what you are told is bad, that’s a timeless message.
Continue readingWell, this was simultaneously better and worse than I expected! Mahesh’s directing and Sanjay and Alia’s chemistry together was far better than I hoped. And the anti-establishment message was a delight (I totally hit the nail on the head with my OSHO guess, by the way. Go me!). But the script as a whole just wasn’t quite good enough.
Continue readingHappy Internet stuff! Mostly because Angie sent me a link from twitter of THE BEST store. Is this what happens when you do twitter? You find out about cool fan stores?
Continue readingIt finally released! And I decided it deserved it’s very own post. Generally looks like a decent movie (Mahesh could make no less), but also some interesting context.
Continue readingWoo-hoo! Courtney’s birthday, party time! And Humpty time! 2pm Chicago time this week (an hour earlier than usual), and a very good movie. I’ll start the comments off at 2pm and you all can keep commenting along.
Continue readingSocial Media! The DCIB version, where it’s all about cute pets and birthday wishes and Amitabh being a funny old man.
Continue readingInternet things! Including a broad definition to mean also “the video my co-worker sent of her kitten sneezing”.
Continue readingSurely, this will be a long list, won’t it? Any time you are watching a movie going “ooo, the two ‘best friend’ characters really have great chemistry”. Tell us about them!
Continue readingBarely enough her to make a post, but you know I can’t resist Yash and Roohi videos. They dance! They do puzzles! They slowly and steadily destroy the apartment!
Continue readingKalank! If you have a lot of time on your hands, a Prime subscription, and laundry to fold, this is worth watching. But not otherwise.
Continue readingSince there is no real new news, we have this delightfully vast vista for our imagination to make up news. Let us all wildly speculate together!
Continue readingYou ready for a challenge? I’m gonna pull out every big Varun dance song I can remember, and we have to rank them! Or at least, pick the one you love best (for those of you who don’t care as much).
Continue readingHappy Varun Week! What a delightful celebration we shall have. Thank goodness Varun’s filmography is almost 100% light and happy. Not necessarily “good”, but definitely light.
Continue readingHappy Saturday! Which has meaning for me, since I still work regular hours and enjoy having the weekend off. Of course, being me, that just means I find a different non-job kind of work. Because what is life if not a serious of challenges to accomplish?
Continue readingI am very excited about this! When you add it all up, you can give all the characters a happy ending, if we just make them all Bi. And they are high school kids after all, hormones everywhere, Bi is more likely than not.
Continue readingKind of a boring guy which, coincidentally, is what makes him so interesting. How does a boring boring person find a way to maintain some level of stardom?
Continue readingHappy 27th Birthday Alia! You don’t get a special post of any kind (maybe tomorrow) because I got like 4 hours of sleep last night, and the night before, and I have that kind of physical grief hangover thing. Like, I’m not upset my aunt is dead, because it happened months ago after months of sickness, but it’s still A Thing to go see her buried and clean out her house and stuff. I told you all that’s why I was taking a train trip this weekend, right? Anyway, Alia gets a discussion post instead.
