Friday WatchAlong, War! Hrithik and Tiger in Love! 3pm Chicago Time Start
Woo-hoo! Such a happy movie for a happy day! Well, for a stressy day that will become happy because of the movie (I don’t know about you, but the last couple weeks before daylight savings ends when I wake up before the sun makes me NUTTY).
Continue reading2019 Award Post: What is Your Song of the Year?
This is a nice fun subjective post. This isn’t everyone’s song of the year, just YOUR song of the year. And then based on the responses, we can try to come up with a DCIB community majority Song of the Year.
Continue readingWorst Hindi Title of 2019!!! “War” or “Judgementall Hai Kya” or “Good Newwz”?
This will either be unanimous or contentious and I just don’t know! There might also be some real winners/losers I don’t know about from the non-Hindi industries, feel free to throw them into the mix!
Continue reading2019 Awards Post, Gayest Movie of 2019, Vote Between ELKDTAL and War!!!!!
Well, this is a two horse race. I’m not even gonna pretend that anything else is in the running. The cool thing is, these two films represent two different and equally valid ways of bringing queer content to the screen. And we get to pick which one is “gayest” (in the best possible way)!
Continue readingMost Groundbreaking Female Character Who Isn’t Promoted as Groundbreaking of 2019 Award Poll Post
There’s the female characters who get all the promotions and everyone talking about them for being “brave” and “different” and blah blah. And then there’s the female characters who just sneak in under the radar and are quietly AWESOME.
Continue readingWant to Spend New Years Day Watching The Gayest Movie of 2019 on Twitter With Me?
Woo-hoo! 2020!!! What better way to start what will no doubt be a super fun year, than with a DCIB tweetalong! We can all sit in our jammies drinking leftover eggnog and eating pancakes and swooning over the Tiger-Hrithik romance.
Continue readingDiscussion Post: How Ready Are We to Cheat? Which of These Movies Had Us Rooting For the Characters to Do the Wrong Thing?
I was just thinking about English-Vinglish again and how ready I am for Sridevi to walk out on her husband for Hot French Dude. And then I started to wonder if I am alone in this?
Continue readingWar Third Watch! New Theory, What if Hrithik is Tiger’s Father?
I have a new theory, and new small things I noticed. Let’s talk about them!
Continue readingDaily Hrithik Shipping Post: War Sequel!!!! What Jodi Do We Want Next?
I have Ideas!!!! And you can pick and choose among them. Don’t limit yourself, if this is like the Bond or Mission Impossible films, it could go on and on and on with a different love interest each time. Pick one, or two, or three!
Continue readingWar Movie Misc. Discussion Post
Well, I saw it for the second time last night and there were a couple cool things I noticed this time that I want to mention. And Alisa alerted me to an interesting interview with the director. And Hrithik is still hot. All of these things made me want to do a kind of grab bag post of it all.
Continue readingFilm Companion Publishes Homophobic Article
Urgh, I hate responding to stuff! It’s always so mean, picking apart some other writer’s words. But in this case, it is hate speech that has been given a platform by a site I respect and which I know many of you read, so I feel a moral obligation to discuss it. (thank you for the link Alisa! Otherwise I would have remained ignorant/the article would not get the response it requires)
Continue readingDaily Hrithik Shipping Post: What Other Films Has He Had Chemistry With His Co-Stars?
Sorry Tiger, I’m dropping you. Ultimately you just aren’t that interesting. But let us take a look back at Hrithik without Tiger and with someone else. What other films has he managed to create similar chemistry with his co-stars?
Continue readingNews Round-Up: Casting Rumors of Future Films! 2000s Are Back, Suniel, Preity, and Maddy Are All Rumored
Everyone decided to start the work week by giving bollywoodhungama stories that may or may not be true depending on what the future holds. I should join in! I can tell bollywoodhungama that I am currently planning to make a flash mob youtube video that will go viral. Will I? Doesn’t matter! The story is that, as of this moment, I am PLANNING to do so.
Continue readingDaily Hrithik-Tiger Shipping Post: What Other Casting Options Would We Use for War?
Let’s recast this sucker! Mostly so I can make it female-female, but I would also be okay with male-female.
Continue readingDaily Hrithik-Tiger Shipping Post, a Screenshot Album
I thought I had gotten it out of my system, but apparently not. Also, it’s Saturday so I don’t have to think and be mature. For the good of us all, I am now going to comb through the songs and trailers for the best possible images. And then we can use them to decorate our “Hrithik+Tiger= Tru Luv 4Ever” clubhouse.
Continue readingHindi Film 101: Love Between Men in Indian Cinema
Oh boy, a Big Thought post! As always with these posts, every single point and discussion is TM Me, so if you find yourself repeating them somewhere else on the internet, please please give proper attribution. There is nothing more depressing than when I end up on some other site and realize a post or comment is just my ideas repackaged and relabeled under someone else’s name.
Continue readingDaily Hrithik-Tiger Shipping Post: Ideas for Other Movies They Could Be In Together!
Now that we have a new hit Jodi, we need to use it over and over again. At least, that’s how I feel. And I have ideas!!!! In case ideas are needed.
Continue readingDaily Hrithik-Tiger Shipping Post, Would You Like Some Videos?
Again, this is just for the small but proud “Hrithik+Tiger = Tru Love 4Ever” group. But for that group, I stumbled upon Hrithik-Tiger fanvids and felt like I had to share.
Continue readingSilly War Post: Rank Which of These Imaginary Love Scenes You Most Want Filmed and Added
This is a silly silly post that is only for my fellow members of the new “Tiger+Hrithik Tru Luv 4Ever” club. But I have Ideas that I must share, and then you can give your opinions on them and share your own Ideas.
Continue readingGlobal Box Office: Hrithik Versus Reddy
I haven’t done a box office post in ages, mostly because I got so depressed by how well Mission Mangal was doing I couldn’t handle it. But yaaaaay! Two movies I enjoyed and honestly think are good movies are also making money! (as always, figures from bollywoodhungama)
Continue readingSilly Sunday: The Gay Love Scenes Missing from War, and bonus Hugh Jackman-Shahrukh Musical Romance
Filmikudhi and I wrote an amazing Hugh Jackman-Shahrukh romance with lots of songs, and on the other hand there are also the gay love scenes that it feels like must have been in War at one point and then some no-fun common sense person said that you can’t have an explicit love scene between Hrithik and Tiger.
Continue readingWar Review (SPOILERS): Throw Logic Out the Window and Enjoy
Don’t read this review!!!!! This is for people who have seen the movie and want a place to discuss it. The twists are so good/bad (as in, completely impossible and jaw droppingly dumb and yet entertaining) that you REALLY REALLY shouldn’t spoil yourself. Read this review to get pumped for the film, then come back here to discuss it after watching. Oh, and if you aren’t interested in a big dumb action movie, don’t even bother reading this review, the plot summary alone will bore you and infuriate you.
Continue readingWar Review (No Spoilers): Gayer Than Top Gun
Yes, I am aware that is an extreme statement in the headline. But I stand by it! Tiger and Hrithik have successfully out-gayed Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer. If that sentence intrigues and excites you, you should watch this movie. If it makes you go “huh? wha? Top Gun was gay?” than this film is operating on a whole other level that you may never grasp, and this review is not for you. SO GAY!!!!

Happy Wednesday! Halfway through a weird week. Things are super slow at work right now, which means the work days pass veeeeeeeeeeeeery slowly. I know it shouldn’t work that way, but it does, the busy weeks go by a lot faster.
