Let's try something.

I was thinking about how for many #Bollywood actors, their 2nd/3rd role is always the game changer. The one that proves their talent/belonging.
Messy characters, gritty roles, complete counter programming subject matter, crime drama, etc.

I'll start.

I'm well into #War2, and never have I ever felt a LACK of Tiger Shroff in a movie, as hard as I'm feeling it now.

And that too, in a Hrithik movie?! Unheard of!!

Hrithikโ€™s intro in #War2 basically calling back to the first movie, but this time even his victims are in awe of his hotnessโ€” is the appropriate escalation I want in a sequel.

If the whole movie is just the 1st, but the outrageous & goofy ramped upโ€” Iโ€™m in for a good time!

Iโ€™m SECONDS into #War2 & already I have so many questions. Mostly CGI Wolf relatedโ€”

Is Hrithikโ€™s intro this time from the wolfโ€™s POV? The wolf gaze?

So Hrithikโ€™s hotness transcends species, causing even a wolf to submit at his mere presence?!

Completely forgot about TEST from back in the #WWE #AttitudeEra!!

He was such a force! And a fellow Canadian. #RIP

I like Shane Black.

Although, while I enjoy *most* of his movies, I would love to see someone else direct his screenplays.

Because the writing is always tightโ€” but execution somehow falters somewhere along the way. Not always. But mostly.

This is how ADHD hyper fixation works, I guess.

I should be catching on S2 of #Peacemaker, but instead, that #Chandni line in the Danger song from #ParamSundari made me go watch Chandni for the first time everโ€” and I do not like Rishi Kapoor in that movie.

Holy shit.
Iโ€™m revisiting the #WWEAttitudeEra (thanks #Netflix) and my God!!

The #TripleH & #StoneColdSteveAustin tag team / world championship run and rivalry with #Undertaker & #Kane โ€” holy shit!

Storylines today feel SO tame by comparison.

How is it that #IbrahimAliKhan is more likeable and hilarious in his one-line outrageous cameo in #TheBadsOfBollywoodโ€”

Than the entire runtime of whatever improv sketch of a debut movie that he did.

I think my favourite version of SRK playing himself, is the insecure and antagonistic SRK he plays in #TheBadsOfBollywood. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Not the best cameo imo, but still a lot of fun!

The SRK cameo in #TheBadsOfBollywood reminded me how long itโ€™s been since SRK has done one of his classic type roles. The excitable, comedic, underdog hero.

While I love Pathaan and Jawanโ€” I always preferrrd SRK when his characters arenโ€™t badass and heroic through out.

I was not prepared for how good #TheBadsOfBollywood is!

I got burnt out from the wave after wave of #Bollywood streaming crime thrillers & gangster dramas.

So this action rom-com masala movie concept expanded into a long form series is very refreshing. & executed brilliantly!

Totally was not expecting to like THIS specific part of #TheBadsOfBollywood โ€”

But I am loving that there are countless variations for the English translation of โ€˜chootiyeโ€™ in the subtitles.

I donโ€™t think they ever used the same word twice. So farโ€ฆ ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

So far into episode 1 of #TheBadsOfBollywood and Iโ€™ve been pretty mixed.

But when you do a #BobbyDeol entrance scene with an electric guitar version of the Soldier theme songโ€”

Fuck you, Iโ€™m in!!

Taking a break from the #DCU and returning to #Bollywood after a while.

Whichโ€” btwโ€” have we gotten the official version of the title yet? โ€˜Cuz Iโ€™m still going with whoever came up with โ€˜bastardsโ€™.

A Indian remake of #TheAdjustmentBureau?

Fascinating! I'm curious to see how they adapt the concepts of free will, destiny & eternal love for an Indian audience.

Realizing now, how those are actually tailor-made for the industry! #SplitScreenPodcast

Perks of having kids early was the anticipation that in 17 years weโ€™ll have an in-house designated driver for all our โ€˜wild nightsโ€™.

Only for that day to come and realize that we donโ€™t even enjoy drinking that much anymore.

What was any of this even for!?

Alright! #IyoSky giddily hopping along to #RheaRipley's entrance as she joins her at the last #WWERAW is about the cutest thing ever!!

This is the unlikely duo that I'm here for! Watch out #CharBliss!

ANDOR: Connecting Nemik's Rebellion Manifesto to Yoda's Iconic Line In Empire Strikes Back Andor season 1 was a touchstone when it came to how we saw Star Wars as a franchise. The Disney+ original series gave us a side of Star Wars that is more adult,

I find myself thinking about #Andor more & more. Esp Nemik's manifesto.
So much so that I even made connections of it within other #StarWars.

I feel like those words, that inspire and enrage, will resonate through history, both in fiction and reality.

Ok. There is a joke mere seconds into the first scene of #TheNakedGun, that has completely sold me on the movie.

Like, right out of the gate!!

Bravo!! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

I remember not being a fan of the originals. But I was an actual kid at the time. Also dumb.

But anytime #LiamNeeson has tried comedy, itโ€™s worked for me. LOVED, actually. And I canโ€™t not check out what many say is the yearโ€™s best comedy.

So... genuine question:

Is the #DCU #Clayface movie going to be about the same character as the one in #CreatureCommandos ?

Because... shared universe?

#CreatureCommandos was not what I was expecting at all!

Initially reminding me of #TheLegendOfVoxMachina , it totally becomes its own, weird little thing.

What I thought was going to be a light entry into the #DCU, has surprising depth, heart and almost too much emotion?

Whoa!! Ok. So I know nothing about the Kabuki Warriors. It was before I got back in.

But I was still terrified of #Asuka. Like, sheโ€™s an absolute psychopath in the best possible way!

But mist? MIST !?!?

That is some #AttitudeEra shit right there! #WWE #WWERaw. Jeez. ๐Ÿคฏ

So James Gunn got me with #GOTGVol3, and now again with #CreatureCommandos.

Taking 2 aggressively startling characters, fashioned after cuddly (debateable) creatures & giving them tragic and emotionally devastating origin stories to make audiences bawlโ€” Dammit, James!! #DCU

I remember everyone saying it was the best episode of #CreatureCommandos when it released.
Weeks later, I get it.

The Weasel flashbacks of episode 4 were devastating. It ended with me desperately holding back tears. #DCU

The more I think about the #DCU actors being the same across all mediums (potentially), the more #CreatureCommandos excites me!

David Harbour as Frankenstein battling it out with Indira Varma as the Bride!
Especially after that incredible episode 2 origin story?!

If he wasnโ€™t already Muse in #DaredevilBornAgain, I couldโ€™ve totally seen #HunterDoohan as the new #MCU Cyclops.

His performance in both seasons of #Wednesday is like an awesome audition reel for Cyclops. S2 shows he can go dark too for when Cyclops, you knowโ€” loses it a liโ€™l.

Looking back, the concerns over, if James Gunn can handle the vibe of Superman, feel so out of place.

The 3 official releases of the #DCU so far, #Superman, #CreatureCommandos and #Peacemaker S2 are SO wildly different in tone, subject matter and even intended audiences.

You wanna know how I can generally tell if someone is racist?

When OTHER people spend a lot of their time explaining to me how that someone isnโ€™t racist.
