Love Story 2050

Unfortunately the producers spent millions on ensuring the star kid looks like a clone of Hrithik Roshan.

Worse still, they roped in Anu Malik to the music for this futuristic movie.

Little do they know though that Anu Malik is still in 1950! Terrible music.

On a day like today

I’d rather be there.

American Politics

I am amused. I find every second desi blogger to b an expert on American Politics! Its fine if you say you’ve have spent a good part of last decade here and know the dynamics a bit- but some of the posts I come across are written in a way that would put most prolific American political writers to shame! What idiots!

LOST

WOW – what a dramatic finale! Damn! I didn’t see that one coming. I know I said this last time too ;). February 2009 can’t come soon enough!!!

LOST is the best show on television. Period!

Meetings

Sitting in a room right now with almost 15-20 people. Its like sitting in a coach of a Indian train stuck in the middle of nowhere – and because the train is stuck late, now it must wait on every other train to pass before it starts again. This is exactly how I feel right now 😛

10.5.3

Apple issued an update (sort of service pack) for OS X today, and it stands an average between 200-400Mb.

As usual, apple fan sites and forums are so full of “Oh look, an update”, “My computer’s zippy!!”, “Awesome update”, “Look I found this!” crap.

Get over it people! Its a freaking update, more than 80% of just bug fixes and nothing else. Jeez, these apple fanboys have nothing to do!

Imagine poor Windows issuing a 400Mb update and…

BCCI

In an interview Lalit Modi says:

So there’s you know a lot of people making a lot of money off the IPL, but you’re not one of them?

No I’m not one of them, unfortunately not.

Why not?

Well, I do this in an honorary position and BCCI is a charity and a trust. It’s a non-profit making organization and we do this for development of the game and I’m passionate about the game. And we do this so that the people in India can enjoy the facilities and we can build a great cricketing culture and we can have great facilities for our players.

— BCCI is a CHARITY and Non-PROFIT? That’s the biggest load BS I have heard in a long long long time!

Gone Baby Gone

I must say a very impressive directorial debut by Ben Afleck. The story seems lose its way in the second half, but the way it comes together in the end makes you think.

The last few scenes are superb, and provide a very interesting perspective on what is right and wrong.

And a great last dialogue.

Airtel

Am I the only one who hates those Madhavan-Vidya Balan series ads? They are so annoyingly self indulgent and idiotic!

Indiana Jones

Notes to myself: Avoid any Spielberg + Lucas combination. Its dangerous!

Very average movie. Heck for most part it was unclear what was happening. And the ending: One of the most un-inspired insipid ever. Agreed nobody looks for logic or brains in Jones movie.. but still one does expect the story to hold!
