Merry Christmas

Wishing all of you a truly wonderful Christmas. Peace in your minds and laughter in your hearts everyone!! :)

I do NOT understand

... why more and more people feel they cannot communicate effectively until and unless they use the eff word!!

Sigh!

What does one do with a boy who can identify a meerkat and a bushbaby but insists that a goat is a DOG???

Writing on the wall?

Arjun asked me for the spelling of 'time' and 'cant'. After a while, i went to see what he had written and found myself looking at the first sentence he had come up with all by himself. It read :

"you all but i cantB goob all the time"

!!!!!

Maid for each other

I couldnt wait to tell maddy about how my maid told me that i was the most hard working among all the women she worked for.

So i gushed to him about how she told me i cook and then i drop jun and then pick him up again and do the clothes....till maddy stopped me with an exasperated look.

"Arch, all she is saying is that we are terribly middle class..we dont have a cook, we dont have a driver....get it?"

Sometimes it helps to remember why i married this man ;p

Movie Mania!

Been movie watching to my heart's delight, thanks to the new membership with a dvd rental place. Obviously am catching up but still thought i should share my deep and insightful reviews about the movies i have watched...so here goes :

Maqbool : Still kicking my self for not having watched it earlier. Brilliant.

Kaminey : Watched it with subtitles and all but still think maqbool is way better.

Star Trek : Awesome. Felt just like meeting old friends :)

Wolverine : X Men Origins : Loved it too...but maybe just a little less than star trek.

The Ugly truth : I was prepared for it to be gross but it totally lost its integrity by becoming a sappy rom com as it ends. Not even very funny

Ghosts of girlfriends past : Tolerable especially if you are watching it after The Ugly Truth

Duplicity : Disappointing.

State of Play : Not bad at all. Definitely better than Duplicity.

Harry Potter and the half blood prince : Very nice ... but movies that dont quite end when they end leave me slightly unhappy.

Arundhathi (telugu) : Amazing, considering the stereotype you have of a telugu movie in your head (ok, my head) but its not exactly a happy movie and had too many toe curling moments. Technically i guess its quite outstanding.

The Reader : Over rated

Revolutionary Road : Brilliant!! Loved it.

17 again : Yaaawwwnnnn....snoorrrrrrrrrrre

Angels and Demons : Too much left out from the book...i guess if you havent read the book its an ok movie. But felt a little disappointed for sure.

Transformers Revenge of the Fallen : OK, so we are suckers for action movies.... even if they show the same thing over and over again :p

The Bucket List : Really really nice, sweet, tender and teary

That does it for now.

Over and out from the really old movie review specialist :)

ps : old refers to the movie and NOT to the specialist. Just in case... you know...!
