Missing Mary Road

Prana has released a movie trailer for the upcoming animated Bollywood feature film Koochie Koochie Hota Hai, directed by Tarun Mansukhani (Dostana). The film is a quasi-animated take on Karan Johar’s Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and marks the 12 year anniversary of its release. Shahrukh Khan and Kajol reprise their roles, alongside other voice cast such as Rani Mukherji, Sanjay Dutt, Riteish Deshmukh, Anupam Kher, Uday Chopra and Simi Garewal. The core of the film is a love story between three dogs, and the supporting cast is made up of other animals, roosters, bears, pigs, cats, “and many others from the barn”. The movie is India’s largest animated production of all time.

so Avatar was a great piece of filmmaking and everything with super awesome special effects and all that but it was possibly a mediocre storyline at best and the plot has been done before in sci-fi over and over. but apparently, the Americans need psychotherapy after watching a damn movie. it’s unreal how this has become a news story, so i’ll post it here and file it under, “those yankees are nuts”.

James Cameron’s completely immersive spectacle “Avatar” may have been a little too real for some fans who say they have experienced depression and suicidal thoughts after seeing the film because they long to enjoy the beauty of the alien world Pandora.

Kids growing up these days will probably be exposed to “Star Wars” films as they stumble upon them airing on different cable channels. This will be very, very confusing for them. Therefore, in an effort to help them figure out which of the films they’re watching, Maxim made this handy flowchart for the person who’s never seen a single “Star Wars.”

dawn news has made a superb documentary on the pakistan military. unfortunately, as all things pakistani, the bureaucrats within have decided that it is not meant for public consumption has gone ahead and banned it. my buddy wajahat has hosted and narrated the entire documentary. as in all things video, you can find it in all its glory over at youtube. the first page brings you to the promo’s and trailers. clicking on playlist will allow you to watch the film in it’s entirety. hope you enjoy. oh yeah, apparently there’s a petition going around on facebook to lift the ban. i ain’t on facebook, so whomever knows the link, help a brother out and send it to me so i can link to it here.

everyone reading this needs to go buy the box set for firefly, then watch serenity and then go watch dollhouse. immediately. stat. why? cuz joss whedon will make you a happy person or else gremlins will come out and haunt  you while you’re dreaming of elves and unicorns. oh by the way, after all of this, why don’t you come join in on the sing-a-long blog by dr. horrible.

ever wonder what the 20th century would have been like if star wars had been real and not fiction? obviously not, you’re not geek enough. but all these people are, and they’re good at photoshop too. awesomeness.
