Cube

A couple of strangers wake up to find themselves imprisioned by an unknown force. A frantic race against time to free themselves from their prision. Hidden traps and cruel contraptions, that kill, if handled wrong. One wrong step, and your body gets sliced into little pieces. During the course of events - they learn about […]

HD100 when it was released last Oct - ran into rough waters with its split-screen issues and lack of 60P (for reality look & slowmo). Now it has updated its lineup to offer 2 more cameras based on HD100 design. The left column is the old camera, and the 2 right columns represent the 2 […]

Some frequent business travellers complain that they almost live in a hotel or an airplane. But Francie Rehwald, owner of a successful Mercerdes-Benz dealership in CA, will have the rare distinction of making that boast - not figuratively, but literally. She is building a house made entirely out of a scrap 747-200 jet!
After buying an old TowerAir jet ($100K), the builders began […]

Silicon Imaging has announced a 2/3CCD 1080p cam with interchangable lens for under $20K(!!). More info in their FAQ. They have a bare bones version for just $12,500!
2/3 chip camera is as good as it gets! All the cams I’ve mentioned before here are 1/3 chip cameras… 2/3 is usually really high end stuff reserved […]

Delicious.
A whirlwind romantic classic - saw it for the first time today and understood why it still regarded as one of the best romantic movies ever. Audrey Hepburn was divine..!

Aus on the edge

Australia hasn’t lost a test match since last year. Now they are struggling to avoid a follow-on to *gasp* Bangadesh!.
Yup - Bangladesh, the same team which was famously fried by Sharne ‘big mouth’ Warne. I love it when minnows stick it up to Goliaths - let see what Richie Bernard says now…
Bangladesh 427
Australia 145/6
Gripping test match! […]

An uneasy love story - sans the usual melodrama with measured performances. The whole  movie could have worked as well for an adulterous romance between a married man and a married women.
Any film that crosses 22 years in 2 hours is bound to have an epic feeling to it - where u see the characters & […]

Rang De Basanti

I have been out of touch with Hindi movies for almost 6months, and when this movie released I was so eager to see it - thanks to the glowing reviews it got from everywhere.
And, I saw it yesterday - What a crappy movie!
In the guise of character building, the editor has slept during the […]

If Apple had announced 4 days back that it is going let Microsoft Windows officially run on the new Macs - I would never have believed, as history clearly shows that big corporations have not exactly been truthful on April the First (with classics such as the BBC report on ‘Farmers growing Noodles on trees’, Burger King […]
