HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I hope you are having a wonderful day and eating cake and spoiling yourself. And as a thank you for being such a nice enthusiastic new commenter, here is my gift: a new section of DDLJ.
Continue readingShahrukh Birthday Countdown, Dilwale Review! A New One!
This was the first big movie to come out after I started blogging, so I hadn’t really figured out how I was going to structure reviews or anything. Which means the existing reviews are fun, but kind of a confusing hodge podge. Time to do better!
Continue readingShahrukh Birthday Countdown, My Name is Khan! NO POLITICS!!!!
Remember, Happy Place Rules! Which is really hard with this movie, so I almost decided to skip reposting this review. But that felt wrong, so I am reposting. But with a reminder of Happy Place Rules. So you can skip reading this to protect your Happy Place, and if you comment, you have to find an inspiring/cheerful take in order to protect all of us in our Happy Place.
Continue readingShahrukh Birthday Countdown, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham! The Movie Through Brought Him to The World!!!!!
It’s been 20 years now, this movie has been made fun of and rehashed and ridiculed over and over, it’s easy to forget what a massive industry changing international hit it was when it first released.
Continue readingShahrukh Birthday Countdown, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai! Three Important Polls
I like polls, but I refuse to use the polls built in tool. I want you to comment so you can say more if you like, and I can ask follow up questions, not just pick something on a list (boring!).
Continue readingShahrukh Birthday Countdown, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Let’s Talk COSTUMES!!!!
Second general Kuch Kuch post! Oh man, I am so happy just rereading this. KKHH is really my happy place.
Continue readingShahrukh Birthday Countdown, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai! Let’s Talk GAZEBO!!!!
I haven’t done a for real review of this movie, but I did a series of theme posts a few years back on it. I’m gonna post the two most general of those posts and we will see if people care enough to inspire me to post the others.
Continue readingSocial Media Round-Up: Tiger Sang a Song, Alia Birthday Wishes for Her Dad, Kajol Posted an Embarrassing Photo, Harsh Posted a Ridiculously Long Video,
Let’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 readingShahrukh Birthday Countdown, Karan-Arjun! Part 3!
I am going so much faster through this movie than Baazigar! And of course there’s no comparison with how slooooooooooooow I went through JHMS, once we get there.
Continue readingHappy Birthday Kajol! The Best Actress of the 90s, Who Just Walked Away
Happy Birthday Kajol! I love you, even if not everyone does. And I think not everyone does because maybe not everyone remembers what you used to be.
Continue readingWednesday Watching Post: What Are You Watching and Reading and Thinking and Listening to on KAJOL’S BIRTHDAY!!!!!
Happy Wednesday! And Happy Birthday Kajol! To celebrate, I am hosting a virtual movie night where we will not be watching a Kajol movie. Oh well, at least we will probably do a Shahrukh film, which is almost the same.
Continue readingIndulgent FanFic Post: High Quality Middle-School Dramedies Remade as Indian Movies, The Babysitters Club and Andi Mack
I love escaping to a world of 12 years old, when your parents had the house and food and clothes and stuff responsibilities, and you just had to solve mysteries and fight and make up with friends and so on. Usually I escape in bookform (Trixie Belden, woot-woot!), but there are two high quality TV shows (like, seriously high quality, not just kids shows) that I have been saving for a special occasion and now I am binging and I DESPERATELY want them remade in India. Only with the focus on the parents.
Continue readingDiscussion Post: Who Are Your Ultimate Personal Jodi? Rahul and Anjali? Harry and Sejal? Humpty and Kavya?
Discussion time! No wrong answer here, just personal stories/opinions.
Continue readingAlternate Kuch Kuches: Little Anjali and Salman Romance, Shahrukh Falls in Love With Someone Else Instead of Kajol, Shahrukh is Bi and Kajol is a Man
Is “kuch kuches” the plural, do we think? Or is “kuch kuchi” better? I’ll leave it like this, but feel free to weigh in with your thoughts in the comments!
Continue readingHappy Kuch Kuch Hota Hai Day! Starting With Character Posts, Anjali!!!!
I forgot about this, I wrote a whole bunch of specific KKHH analysis posts. We had such fun watching it together on Saturday night, and it’s Karan Johar week, so I thought I would put them up again.
Continue readingKaran Johar Week Discussion Post: Which is His Sexiest Couple?
We discovered last week that Aditya Chopra doesn’t actually do “sexy” well. But, in contrast, I think Karan really REALLY does. Question is, which is his best sexiest pairing?
Continue readingDDLJ Part 52: (Aditya Chopra Week) Shahrukh Finds the Moon (Happy Birthday Joyomama!)
Part 52! Less fun than the last part maybe, because Himani and Anupam were suuuuuuuuch fun. But SRKajol are fun too, in their own young dumb way. And also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOYOMAMA!!!!! You mentioned it in a comment on another post, and I made this present for you right quick
Continue readingDiscussion Post: Who Do You Have A Girl Crush On?
Do we all understand the concept of “girl crush”? Someone you aren’t sexually attracted to, but you think they are just really REALLY cool and you want to hang out with them and eat ice cream and be best friends.
Continue readingGupt! Kajol and Bobby and Manisha OH MY!
This is such an awesome bad-good movie! If you have the ability to watch it, and a high tolerance for 90s camp, I highly HIGHLY recommend it.
Continue readingTentative Scheduling Post: Bad Girls Movies
No one cared about my Bad Girls Theme Month announcement, but maybe this will give you something more to talk about. What movies should I write about?
Continue readingDDLJ Part 50: Karwa Chauth Party Party!!!!!
I’m back! I just took about 200 more screenshots and it got me slightly less than 5 minutes farther into the film. So even if I do a post a day, I think we still have a month or more before I end this thing. Which is good news or bad news depending on how you feel about it.
Continue readingDDLJ Part 49: The Romance of a Fight
An SRKajol scene! Always the most interesting ones to discuss. Although by this point in the film/my analysis, I’m not sure if there is that much new for me to pick up between them. But I will try because Rachel said she was depressed last night and I want to cheer her up!
Continue readingDDLJ Part 48: Father and Son Comedy Team
I’m back! I am starting fresh, with a sprinkling of Christmas cheer and happiness, and a new system for pulling images that hopefully makes this less horrible of a process for me, so let’s see how I do. UPDATE: oh right, I forgot the other reason I stopped these posts, it’s been an hour and this post only got 4 views so far. Not a lot of interest for intense scene by scene discussion.
