I dont remember seeing a movie in which has actor’s literally lived out a roles as I did when I saw PT Anderson’s Boogie Nights (only one other movie comes to my mind - Crash).
The ensamble cast: Mark Walberg, Burt Reynolds, Julianne Moore - live their roles!. Not to mention Philip Hoffman, Heather Graham and […]

I have used Remit2India (Times of India Group) a few times to send money to India. Today I got an offer mail and I just cannot believe their audacity to advertize this offer!
Dear Ram,
We appreciate the trust you have placed in Remit2India and we believe that your patronage should not only be recognized, but […]

Disney buys Pixar for $7.4billion!
Eh, not bad for Steve Jobs, who bought Pixar for a mere $10million from Lucas. No good animation movies has come out of Disney for the most part of the last decade… and it kinda survived by piggybacking on Pixar’s success, distributing a string of mega blockbusters (Toy Story, Bugs […]

After seeing the movie yesterday - it cleared up a few things, but it raised a lot of questions about Christ himself.

Poor direction, Poor Acting, Inappropriate music.
At 5.1 surround sound, AR Rehman’s BGM music does sound spectacular - but very inappropriate. I am giving the benefit of doubt to our madras maestro as Director ‘Ping He’ seems to be asleep at the wheel half the time. He is no Ang Lee, so if you […]

Sanyo has just released a sub-$1000 consumer pocket HD camera. Doesn’t have any indie shooting features, its purely a consumer pocket cam. Like my dream cam HVX200 - this one is tapeless solid state memory cam. Die tape Die!.
But it has successfully hit the magic under $1000 price tag - heck its not even […]
