What to do, what to do? Good, or kind of bad, or very bad, or something else entirely? I am open to opinions!

Friday WatchAlong, Trishul! Starting at 3pm Chicago Time Tomorrow, ONLY ON EINTHUSAN
Well, this is a very impractical choice. It will only work if you all swear to watch on Einthusan and nowhere else. But you say you will, so fine! We’ll try it!
Continue readingFriday Watchalong For Yashji! Chandni or Trishul or Darr?
There’s the logical choice, the fun choice, or the choice of my heart. Such a CHALLENGE!
Continue readingWhat Yash Chopra Movie Shall We Watch on Friday?
It’s Yashji’s birthday on Sunday! Obviously, we have to do something for him, and what better celebration than watching one of his films on Friday?
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: I! The Most Insane Tamil Movie You Didn’t Know You Needed
This movie is horribly offensive, stupid, and disturbing. And also operatic and beautiful and you can’t look away. Naturally, I am excited to watch it with y’all!
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: I! The Bonkers Tamil Movie! Just Because I Want to Watch it Again! 24 Hours From Now, 3pm Chicago Time Friday
No idea if anyone (besides Kirre, of course) will be able to show up this week, so I went with the movie that I wouldn’t mind watching again even if it was just by myself. The songs are so crazy, and the visuals so amazing!
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: What to See This Week? Insane Tamil Movie I, Chaahat for Ramya Krishnan’s Birthday, or Something Else?
I’m really pretty open this week, my mind is a blank. Chaahat for Ramya, or I because it is PERFECT for snarking, both are ones I’ve been thinking about for a while. But I don’t have any particular loyalty to them.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Sita Sings the Blues! Starting at 5pm Chicago Time, Right Here
Yaaaay! I love love love LOVE this movie. And feel a little possessive about it, the filmmaker started putting up her little music videos on youtube while she was still finishing the film, and I watched them back then while she was slowly spinning them out. I was so excited when it turned into a film festival darling and everyone was talking about it!
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Sita Sings the Blues at 5pm Chicago Time on 9/11!!!! (Grandpa’s Birthday)
Yes, first, my Grandpa’s birthday is 9/11. He had a good 80 years where the most important thing about that date was that it was his birthday. Oh well, now it makes it easy to remember. Second, since the start time is gonna be different, I thought I should give two days warning to people about what movie it will be so they can plan.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong! At 5pm Chicago Time This Week, Can Anyone Make It? And What Should We Watch?
Due to Grandpa’s birthday, I can’t start the WatchAlong until 5pm this week. By the way, my parents take this whole thing SO SERIOUSLY that they were initially trying to figure out a way to schedule Grandpa’s birthday around the watchalong. To which I said “NO! This is more important and DCIB will understand!” You do, right?
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Ohm Shanthi Oshaana! Right Here, Starting at 3pm Chicago Time
Yaaaaay! One of my favorite movies! So even if people can’t show up, because of stupid jobs and school and things, I will have fun watching it by myself.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Watch The Happiest Sunniest Movie Ever, Ohm Shanthi Oshaana, Right Here in 24 Hours, 3pm Chicago Time!
I am finally making you all watch Ohm Shanti Oshana!!!! HA! It’s only available for pay, but I don’t care, you will love it so much that money doesn’t matter.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Hate Watch Fashion, Love Watch Ohm Shaanti Oshana, Something Else?
My mind is a blank this week. Loads of birthdays (Sudeep!) and things, and yet I still can’t think what we should watch.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Raabta! My Favorite Underappreciated Crazy Romance! Right Here, Starting at 3pm Chicago Time
I really hope a bunch of you can make this one, because I love love love Raabta and have been wanting to show it since the watchalongs started. But even if it is low attendance, I will still be happy watching Raabta all by myself. It’s just that good.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Watch Raabta Right Here in 24 Hours, 3pm Chicago Time Friday!
I’ve decided! It was almost a tie, so I went with the movie I most want to see again. Also the movie I most want to sell other people on watching because it is sooooooooooooooo good and no one seems to see it.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Is This the Week We Watch Raabta or War?
It’s Jim Sarbh’s birthday week! And also, Vaani Kapoor! Two actors who have been in two DCIB all time favorites. But which should we watch this week?
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong, Kabhi Kabhie! Right Here at 3pm Chicago Time!
Yaaaaay, Kabhi Kabhie! Shashi Kapoor being AWESOME, Raakhee being pretty good, everyone else being shades of terrible culminating in truly terrible Amitabh. The snark should be strong in us.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong! See Kabhi Kabhi, Right Here, at 3pm Chicago Time Tomorrow!!!!
Kabhi Kabhi! Yaaaaaaaay! SUCH A GREAT MOVIE! And so fun to watch with other people.
Continue readingDecision Time! Do We Keep Friday WatchAlongs and, If So, Do We Keep Them on Friday at 3pm???
My goodness, I think it’s been about 5 months! Anyway, things have changed, folks are going back to “school” and some of you have shifting work and family and stuff responsibilities, plus we’ve gotten a little used to “the new normal”. With all of that in mind, I wanted to take the DCIB temperature on if we need to update our routine.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong: Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Kabhi Kabhi, or Main Khiladi Tu Anari
Quite the grab bag of options I have come up with this week! I’m not wedded to any of them, feel free to make suggestions. This is a movie for Deepti Naval’s birthday, a movie for Raakhee, and a movie for Saif.
Continue readingFriday WatchAlong Main Hoon Na! 3pm Chicago Time Today, Right Here!
Yaaaaaay, a Shahrukh movie!!!!! Genevieve’s pick, so thank her for your happiness.
Continue readingWatch Main Hoon Na Here in 24 Hours! 3pm Chicago Time!
Thank you Genevieve! For your special farewell Friday Watchalong (stupid parental responsibilities during school year), you have chosen Main Hoon Na, one of everyone’s favorite films, unless they are blackhearted and soulless like Angie.
Continue readingGenevieve! Which Movie Do You Want? Main Hoon Na, Gumrah, Jaane Tu…Ya Jaane Na, Saaho
Genevieve may not be able to come to Friday movies after this week because of stupid school and stupid parenting, booo! Just let the kids go feral! We need you! Anyway, it’s Genevieve’s pick this week, I will describe all 4 of these movies and then she can choose.
Continue readingWhat Should We Watch on Friday? Sridevi Movie, Shahrukh Movie, Saaho, Love Aaj Kal 2020?
Or none of the above! I know the flavor of the movie I want to watch on Friday, I want one that tastes like silliness and sunshine, and that kind of free feeling of walking down the street and smiling and smelling the asphalt and hearing the traffic go by and swinging your purse. But I don’t know what movie that is.
Continue readingFriday Watchalong Here! Humpty Sharma, Starting at 2pm Chicago Time!
Woo-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.
