Silly post, but I was just thinking about a few of these songs and wanted to share them. Lovely little wedding ceremonies, which is loveliest?

Friday WatchAlong: I’m Having a Hard Week, What Can We Watch To Cheer Me Up?
Stupid snow! It’s not that I mind the snow itself, I usually like the adventure of snow. It’s that the snow makes it almost impossible to drive and, with the pandemic, driving is the only way I can get out of the house and have human contact. That little “good morning” exchange with the Starbucks drive through was all that is keeping me sane. Anyway, I’m having a hard week. Feeling a wee bit trapped, and also a wee bit sick (stupid snowstorm also causing a stupid weather related migraine). So I really really need a happy movie, and my brain has turned to mush and I can’t think of one.

A thinky post! That pulls together all kinds of different things I am thinking about! Including Thanksgiving, so it’s a holiday post.

This is not a happy movie. But it is a good movie! I’m glad I can be a fan of someone who wasn’t afraid to make a sad good movie.

I think this question makes sense. At least, it makes sense in my head. I want to see if I can make it make sense in your heads.

A vital question for our time. I was going to do a general “hottest sex scene in films where they had sex” ranking post, but the list got too long, so I am breaking it down by actor.

Woo, Excel Entertainment! Such an odd interesting company, I was going to say that they have never produced a bad movie, but I forgot about Game. Besides Game, they have never produced a bad movie.

Well, this is a fruitful source of discussion! So many Shahrukh movies that are almost perfect, but not quite.

The best to worst romance films post was hard, you ready for a real challenge? Hottest to least hot SRK. Can you accept this challenge of objective judgments?
Continue readingRaees Reviews Combined and Reposted, I Think It Went Wrong At the Election Sequence
I wrote 3 reviews of Raees in rapid succession, before doing a detailed scene by scene. For us all to have a chance to remember it and talk about it before Zero, I am going to combine all 3 reviews in one handy place! Even with the combining, BE WARNED!!! This is a LONG review. Continue reading
Happy Election Day!!!!!!
Happy Election Day! I got up very early and voted at the Croation Cultural Center. I could have voted early or done a mail in ballot or any number of other things, but I really like the Croation Cultural Center and waiting until the actual day gives me an excuse to poke around inside. Oh, and looking at my schedule of reviews, today is weirdly going to be all about female vengeance, so that’s kind of a cool theme
Shahrukh Birthday Month: JHMS, Happy New Year, Raees, Om Shanti Om, JTHJ Rewritten So He Can Play His Own Age
There are a large number of films where he actually is playing his own age, or close to it. But for those few where he is clearly far far distant from the character age, here are my suggestions for how to fix it. It’s not hard, I don’t know why they didn’t just right it this way to begin with!

2017 Hindi Film Awards: Best Elements of a Film, Character and Soundtrack
We continue to move sideways towards the final awards, the big awards for the films as a whole. But first, little bits of the films get their awards, soundtrack and character.
News Round-Up: Salman is Coming to America, Devdas is Coming Back, Twitter Makes NO SENSE
The holidays (Christmas, Salman’s birthday, Anushka’s wedding) are finally over and people are doing newsworthy things again.
Happy 15 Days to Shahrukh’s Birthday!!!! 15 Best Characters He Has Played
Just to be clear, this is not best performances. “Performances” would mean he brought something extra to the role. Which of course he did, but here I want to focus on characters, characters as written in the script, who would have been interesting no matter who played them.
Happy Shahrukh Birthday Month, Day 1 (of 31)! 31 Gifs for Us All
I sense a disturbance in the world of my blog. On one side, I have many many voices crying out in joy at the thought of 31 full days of SRK posts. And then on the other side, I have not quite as many voices crying out in despair. So, here’s the deal. I will continue my Monday and Tuesday reviews. And my Friday Classics. And I’ll throw in news posts and so on. It won’t be all SRK all the time. But all TGIF and Sunday fanfic content will be replaced by SRK focused items. I mean, most of the people who read those are SRKians anyway, right? And every day there will be a special SRK birthday post counting down 31 to 1. Some of them very very silly (as this one will be), and some of them serious (for instance, best performances). If you don’t absolutely hate SRK, at least read the headline topic for the post before deciding not to read it, there will be good content in here.
Happy Navratri!
Happy Navratri! I debated about whether to do this post at the start or the end. I went with start, just because Judwaa 2 comes out near the end so I will already have plenty of content then. Plus Dussehra, Karwa Chauth, etc. etc. (this is an updated and reposted post from last year)
Index of Indexes: Every Film I have Covered in Detailed Scene By Scene Style
Let’s make this a little easier for you, if you want to just read my super super intense detailed analysis/coverage of individual films, the stuff no one else on The Internet or even in the real world really does, here are all the films (so far) that have gotten this kind of treatment. Just click on the name to be taken to their individual Indexes.

Another Index finished! And I think this might be the last one? Because Bahubali is already indexed, and there hasn’t really been anything else that big this year.

Box Office Report: Apparently, I Am the Only Person Who Liked Running Shaadi Better than The Ghazi Attack
Global box office is out! And, gosh darn it, Running Shaadi did terribly. Oh well. At least I liked it! (as always, figures from Renttrack by way of BollywoodHungama)
Raees Part 7: The End! It’s SAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!!
Raees Part 6: The Part Where it All Starts to Go Downhill
New Raees Song!
Is this just a thing now? Shahrukh always keeps back one song for luck, and then posts it a week later? Because he’s done it again!
