Michael Bay for the Dark Knight!!!

This ones facking hilarious..... Came across this on www.spill.com and its a Michael Bay(director of Transformers, Bad Boys II...) script. Those of you are familiar with Bay's movies will find this hilarious. Those of you who like his films, will laugh and probably also not mind seeing this shit made. I for one am the latter... Oh ya.. and for those who dont know who Michael Bay is... Get the fuck off my blog... Go read Salman Khan's or Jar jar Binks's for all i care....

Race to Witch Mountain Trailer

My bet for the surprise hit of this year... The Rock and (Carla Gugino (not topless or getting banged.. goddamned kids flicks).. starring in a Disney flick titled 'Race to Witch Mountain'.. or something like that....



If untrue.. I can pin sarcasm as my excuse...

Altered Ending for I Am Legend

Cracked.com is slowly becoming my favorite website. Here is another jewel I ran into... Am editing my I am Legend's copy to accomodate this original ending instead of the crappy ending we were subjected to.. This is suddenly one of my fave post apocalypse action flick.... No it still doesnt beat 28 Days Later

Enjoy My Preciouessssss!!

Some Great Articles Online

A New Trailer for the Watchmen imported from Japan. This one has more on the Nixon, JFK and Castro angle.



Cracked.com features some MONSTER hits (read Star Wars, Indiana Jones) that 'almost' never got made and why

God of War 3... Kratos is Back!!!!!

God of War is back and this time Kratos leads a clan of Titans in his march to mount Olympus..... By far the best game I have ever played... From the trailers this looks like its going to be better... The sole reason for me to switch loyalties to the Playstation.... K.. now am blabbering.. must...go...on....Can't..... stop.....now..... ARIES!!!! Give me the strength to finish this article and my soul is yours!!!

God of War director David Jaffe has said that, "God of War explains, or ultimately will explain, why there are no more Greek myths." He has also stated that it will be "hell on earth" as the gods and the titans battle each other for domination, and that the series will explore the question of whether "man needs god". "In the end, there will be only chaos".

God of War Trailer 1



God of War Trailer 2



Everything Must End!! Hell yeah!!!

Oscar Contender - 3

My third choice is a movie that looks like Hollywood's adaptation of a Kamal Hassan movie. Profound intellectual debates surrounding morality, ethics and religion are etched into the powerhouse screenplay that the movie 'Doubt' stands on. Add to that rave reviews and a stellar star cast (read: Philip Seymour Hoffman, Meryl Streep, Amy Adams and Viola Davis) and you have one hell of a heady Academy cocktail.

My sceptisim arises solely from the fact that stellar star cast and Academy ass kissing (primarily the whole limited release, and the the end of the year release phenomena) that is synonymous with this movie is precisely why it might be nothing extraordinary. We have seen that in the past with films like Crash, No Country and A Beautiful Mind and this to me is another notch on the now scar riddled totem pole of the Oscars. On the bright side the Academy's rarely repeat their mistakes (too soon atleast) and this year I do not see Doubt winning too many accolades.... Nominations mebbe, but Oscars... I really 'Doubt'. Meryl Streep however is someone for whom id watch the movie anyways.

Now THIS.... is what a flash website should look like!!

First Look at Public Enemies

Empire Online has posted initial pics on Public Enemies. The quiet madness of John Dillinger, one of the most insane gangsters in American history sounds like Johnny Depp personified and the dark, calculated genious of Melvin Purvis, the most successful Gangster crusher of all time could not be played by anyone better than Bale. Aaah divine casting... Oh and FYI Michael Mann of Collateral fame directs....U soooooooo cannot be a reader of this blog and miss this one.
Anjan Dutta... A brilliant Bengali musician.... sniff... Nostalgia.... Kolkatar shei Coffee House.. For those who came in late.. more on the dude on Wikipedia .
