When I was in India (oh god ... that phrase again ... ), I did not really need a reason to go watch a movie. Ok ... i did go to find possible girlfriends and future Mrs. Suhas at Vaibhav theater ... but that's not a reason ... i was just there to admire nature's creations ... ok whatever! So what i intended to say was ... the movie did not necessarily have to be good. Inspite of the list of pathetic movie makers we can boast of ... any movie with friends was invariably fun. But here ... its a little different. Watching a movie is nothing short of a luxury. Even watching one at home needs to be scheduled in between my endless exams and assignments. And by and by ... almost every movie we watched were crap! So fridays became the official 'crap movie night'. It still appalls me that i gotta wait 'n' wait 'n' wait for watching even one good movie. So as usual ... i began watching those in my wishlist ... movies that i always wanted to watch but never did or could.

Hmmm... lets see..... yeah I watched both Golmaal and Golmaal Returns. Same old sequel=sucks equation. The first part was more fun ... its only Arshad Warsi who makes you laugh your heart out in the sequel ... I don't really know what Ajay Devgan's doing in a comedy flick. Shreyas is good to watch ... he's versatile. Tushar Kapoor ... ha ha ha !

I saw Madagascar. The first one. The sequel's probably released or is about to. This is one movie you have to watch the day you finish your last exam. Its the most relaxing movie to watch. Enjoyable ... funny ... gives you a 'feel-good' sensation all the time.

Then there's Ocean's 11. One of those stylish movies. It probably is a 'should watch'. Far-fetched i do agree ... but the story keeps you occupied. I wrongly believed Catherine Zeta Jones is in this ... she is actually in its sequel ... and throughout the movie I kept waiting for her. For those who do not know ... i almost married Catherine ... until i saw Jessica Alba in Fantastic 4.

Oh yeah ... i watched 'Blood Diamond'. One of those class movies ... so its like when someone's not watched this movie ... you go - "What the heck??? You haven't watched Blood Diamond???" with lots of question and exclamation marks. Leonardo DiCaprio is simply super. And Jenniffer Connelly is so gorgeous ... but its the story that blows you ... the gory ... the blood ... and the truth.

I watched 3 Kannada movies. 'Aishwarya' ... for the 2nd time ... its a nice timepass movie. Did not watch it for Deepika Padukone though ... she looks sad in this movie. Watched 'Aa Dinagalu' ... man! Why the heck did i not watch this earlier? Damn good movie. Then there's 'Mr. Garagasa'. Surprise surprise ... i actually felt the movie was pretty ok ... good actually ... Komal is a bit of a pain to watch ... he's really a garagasa here ... but Anant Nag is the only reason why you want to watch this movie.

I also watched a few movies which I had watched before ... A Beautiful Mind ... Finding Nemo ... Chak De India ... Gaalipata ... Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na ... Jurassic Park ... and the Pink Panther.

I would want to watch Madagascar 2 ... Yes Man ... and Ghajini. Someone told me Ganesh's new movie is comin' up ... no thank U boss! I have had enough of him!
