I promised you an All Happiness day, right? What could be happier than objectifying men in a feminist act of subverting gender power dynamics!
Continue readingNews round-up! This is mostly because Brahmastra made me laugh and laugh and laugh. Oh, and because I have a new commenter getting to know Amitabh, and it reminded me that he is a combination of rawly emotional and very very restrained in his public appearances.
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 readingHAPPY SHASHI DAY!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! There will be festivities, there will be wonderment, and to start off there will be PHOTOS!
Continue readingLet us acknowledge our petty dislikes! Who is someone you just can’t make yourself like? To the point of avoiding films you might otherwise enjoy?
Continue readingNo, you can’t wish for infinite wishes! Genie’s are sick of the little smart aleck kids who say that. You can only have ONE wish, and it is strictly Indian film related, and here are your choices. Be warned, they are HARD!!!!
Continue readingRitu was related to a lot of famous public people, but was not a public person herself. I don’t want to reveal too much of her life which (by choice) she kept private. But I want to point to how she affected those around her who have chosen to lead a public life.
Continue readingSeems like, along with being an unofficial SRK fansite, we have also become an unofficial Akshay Kumar/Ranbir Kapoor anti-fan site. And I’m kind of okay with that, whatever makes us happy. Anyway, to go along with the “worst Akshay film of the 2010s”, we must also consider “worst Ranbir film of the 2010s”.
Continue readingThanks Alisa! You saw the new American Little Women and complained about it which inspired me to rethink my Indian remake (already wrote it once here) when you suggested that one of the Little Women should get herself a Little Woman.
Continue readingGossip is bad, and we shouldn’t make assumptions about people we don’t know, and of course none of this matters as much as stuff that happens in “real” life. But, on the other hand, isn’t it fun?
Continue readingTime to write our wish list for Santa! And he can give us anything he wants, because he is SANTA! Govinda come back? SRKajol reunion? Sid-Alia Break-Up? It could all happen!
Continue readingI wrote this about 6 months ago, but I want to repost it now in context with the other actress 101s I have been doing. Just in case you missed it 6 months ago, or in case you read it and want to come back to it with fresh eyes, comparing her with Vidya, and Anushka, and Deepika.
Continue readingOh Dips! I can’t be the only one who has a vaguely worried and protective feeling about her, right? She just seems to have been hit by life so many times.
Continue readingI started out with 8 news stories, and then I actually read them, and they all turned out to be bland and blah. Even these aren’t super exciting, but if PR departments care enough to float stories and watch the response, the least we can do is respond.
Continue readingSo much for you to talk about! I mostly care about which movie people want me to see, because the showtime is at 11am so I need to make a decision soon. But you can talk about the other stuff too!
Continue readingOkay, sharpen your claws, build up the knives of resentment, stoke the fires of your class/gender anger, and let us focus all of that on the one perfect representation of every man who ever tried to tell you his pain was more important than yours, that his success is a tribute to talent and not privilege, that if we disagree with him it is just because we don’t have the depth to understand his thoughts. Take down Ranbir, and we can take down every patronizing boss, every bad boyfriend, every dumb colleague promoted over you, every person who looks at the world and only sees a mirror, not a window. Yes, our Ranbir Hate, in one great cleansing burst, will Save the World.
Continue readingYou know how during SRK month I have a warning that we are in a place of SRK love not hate? I think I have to put an opposite warning on this post, we are in a place of Ranbir hate not like/love/or tolerate.
Continue readingHappy Friday! I am slogging through What’s Your Raashee?, but in the meantime I will throw up this quick post.
Continue readingNothing really worth deep analysis today, but lots of stuff to just report on and let you all react. Also, we get to make fun of Ranbir.
Continue readingI did a whole theme week about how Ranbir is The Worst. and now it is his birthday, and I can’t really walk that back. Nor do I want to, he is in fact The Worst. But he does have some good songs!
Continue readingHappy Wednesday! And happy day before Gang Leader releases and two days before Dream Girl. I wonder which I should watch?
Continue readingOo oo! Combined theme post! Love and hate, brought together in one discussion post.
Continue readingOh my, I don’t know if even I can answer this question! But the fun thing is, we don’t have to pick just one answer. We can all hate our own things for our own reasons. (the links in the titles will take you back to my reviews)
Continue readingWhy is it so joyful to beat up Ranbir? I just don’t know! Is he a symbol of all indulged Indian men in the world? Or do we hate him just for himself? Does it really matter? Anyway, here is a review of his one and only movie as a producer which I hated very very much and which he produced so terribly he literally ended a studio (UTV, RIP). The paragraph where I rip into Ranbir is in bold.
Continue readingSomehow since my Rockstar review, this has turned into “pile on to Ranbir” week. And I decided, let’s lean into that and keep it going!
