Brilliant to have you around yaar. Since hit by the M-word (figure this out you will lol), you literally vanished. Well, M has that effect on people. Hehe… I have even stopped spelling it out.

Yup, RDB is grossly overrated despite being as kitschy as, you rightly said, Fanaa.

Hope to see you online more often..

Cheers!

Just catchin up with some of your old posts.. and glad to come across this one. At least there is one single soul on this Earth who feels the same way as I do abt this stupid movie. I do acknowledge the entertainment value it provides, but I cannot understand the rage it has created and all the hullabaloo abt being pathbreaking, inspiring, directional, cult blah blah.. strictly a mediocre movie, so much so in the category of Fanaa.. Indeed, I liked Yuva & Swades much better!

Love,
RJ

Suyo:Books are such a pain man. Timewise I mean. There just isn’t that kind of time in medicine. No kidding. But like a bad habit, I can’t get over them. At the mo, reading Atonement by McEwan (an author I can’t get enough of).

Vivs: Oh man,just watched 2 short films of W&G and they really are so funny. The feature film just doesn’t hold a candle to them. And yes, I am just such a sucker for Brit films. W&G did have some funny parts and hence the rating. And yes, thanks for the recco. By the look of it, Stay looks quite like my kind of a movie.

Cheers!

You’re right. Coming from a team that gave claymation classics such as ‘Chicken Run’ and ‘Wallace & Gromit’ (DVD collection of short stories), it was a braindead offering. I am surprised you gave it 2 and half stars (Ahem, Is that Brit generosity?)

BTW recently watched ‘Stay’(seems a recent movie) and was reminded of ‘Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind’. Full of confusing visuals, character development through slow-mo actions/dailogue delivery, symbolisms etc. Fits the category of ‘meaningful’ cinema to the T. It has an interesting twist too! ( saved me from absolutely hating it). Thought you would be interested.

Keep reving Bro
