Lost in the magic of Lost…

by

I had once earlier mentioned Lost in my blog. And after almost 5 months the thrill of watching a new episode of Lost is still the same. The show is simply the best ever show made for television. If you managed to catch season 1 and are waiting for season 2 trust me its worth the wait… (Dont Worry no spoilers in this post :) )

I just finished watching Episode 16 of the second season of Lost… I have been lucky to get the torrents online and its amazing to watch the same episode that American audiences watch the same week. I hv got the entire 1st and 2nd season(till the latest episode aired in US) on DVD(a collectors item :) for sure ).

So what is so good about lost that its worth blogging about…

Chapter Two…

chapter two

We had decided to catch this play yesterday at Rangashankara and considering I always saw plays on weekdays I was not prepared for the rush that happens on sundays… Swetha and I arrived to the theater about an hour before the play and realized that we had very little chances of getting the tickets. They were only giving tickets to ppl who had booked earlier and we put down our name in the waiting list in case someone cancelled or did not show up… About 30 min later we waited in bated breath for our name to be called, many had not showed up to collect their tickets. We were one of the last to get the tickets and boy was the tension worth it :P.

The play was arguably one of the best plays I hv ever seen. “Chapter Two” was produced by Evam and is the story of Two people one a recent widower and the other a recent divorcee who find love “again”.

The brilliance of the play was not just the acting which was flawless(so good it attracted a standing ovation after the performance) it was the innovation and the magic they created… There were parts where they used a member carefully placed in the audience to shot timelines(things like “2 weeks later” etc.). The sudden darkness on the stage and the spotlight switching to the member in the audience was clearly applauded.

V for Vendetta – Movie Review

by
vendetta
Rating: ****
(Lowest: * Highest: *****)

V for Vendetta is probably one of the best movies so far this year… The futuristic sci-fi thriller tells the story of a totalitarian Britain set way into the future. Changes in the political scenario shows a fragile America and a powerful Britain. The movie shows the ultimate fight against corruption and for freedom.

V brilliantly played by Hugo Weaving(U actually never get to see his face in the movie) and Natalie Portman who plays Evey to perfection hold the whole film together and the final product is awe inspiring. The Wachowski Brothers had written the screenplay for this film before The Matrix and there are clear similarities between the action sequences of both movies.

Indian Soaps…

by

I happened to catch an episode of a regional soap while I was eating dinner… I don’t usually watch soaps while I eat but today I just sat and decided to play along.

The char in the soap looked villanous and once they look villanous they almost certainly are the negative lead in the show… she had a gun to her hand and fired trice (or 4 times) and the next scene you hv another char collapsing to the ground with her hand clenched to her stomach… The weird thing was she had only one gun shot on her… I started hysterically laughing, I mean she must hv been a classic shot to hit the same spot trice… My dad watching this added ya this is how they get all the shooting gold in the commonwealth games. I was laughing so hard I could hardly eat.

The thing got better by the minute… The next sequence showed the culprit absconding and the female who was shot
