  1. Watched Princess Mononoke . Probably my most favourite after Spirited Away. Beautiful to look at. And I was at the edge of my seat throughout the film. Also watched Kiki's Delivery Service. A sweet little kids flick. And now I firmly believe: Studio Ghibli > Pixar.
  2. Watched It Chapter 2.To add to what @Rick and @Viva la FCB said, there is too little of Pennywise in this movie. I the two scenes he has with other kids, he is absolutely brilliant. Especially the room of mirrors. But there is not enough of that. Overall, a very average flick. Continuing my Studio Ghibli marathon. Watched My Neighbour Totoro. An out and out kids movie with a simple plot, and yet as an adult I enjoyed every bit of it, because of the way it was told and the likeable characters (especially Mei). Also watched Howl's moving castle. Nice fairy tale told in a lovely manner. I am pretty sure these guys can make even paint drying on the wall seem imaginative and engrossing.
  3. Anyone else watched Afghan's win over Bangladesh? Was an exciting match. I keep saying this, these have been a fabulous few weeks for Test cricket. A lot to do with bowler friendly pitches, and partly to do with good bowling and poor batting skills.
  4. On a Studio Ghibli movie marathon of sorts. Watched Spirited Away. Beautiful and so captivating. The detailing not just in the drawings, but also in creating characters and story was incredible. Hard to take eyes off it. Also, watched Grave of the Fireflies. One of the best war (anti-war) movies out there. Almost cried.
  5. You are in for a treat. The first two seasons are brilliant. The third is good too, but the first two are perfection.
  6. The orbiter will be up there for a year documenting important things. Still mighty proud of the effort. EDIT Just posted at the same time with you @nudge. The orbiter does a lot of work. Well, now on to the Sun.
  7. You being an Anderson fan should check out his other movies. He is kinda like Anderson, minus the gorgeous sets. Hunt for wilderpeople and What we do in the shadows are brilliant flicks.
  8. Apparently, the lander Vikram has crashed. Shame really. But it was the small part of the mission. The main one is the orbiter.
  9. Brilliant sequel this after their biscuit video. When James revealed his favourite movie .
  10. Trailer looks good, as well. And quite an ensemble of actors.
  11. Watched Copycat. If you can get past the cliche dialogues and typical nineties acting and directing, then it's a good serial killer movie.
  12. A friend, who knew that I love Pushing Daisies, recommended me this. And I am glad he did. I loved this book. It is such a beautifully written book. Also, it's just the kind of weird that I like.
  13. I know it's the Windies, but 6 for 27 that includes a Hattrick. Bumrah is special.
  14. Australia proper blew it. Has been a good fortnight or so for Test cricket. The matches between Ind/WI and SL/NZ don't come close to that Ashes encounter, but they have been good matches. Stokes played a magical innings. And, yes, Aussies blew it, but Stokes was incredible. Bumrah's 8-3-7-5 was special, and was unsurprisingly not spoken about.
  15. Watched Booksmart. It's this year's Game Night. Funny, smart and very entertaining. Also, unfortunately not that talked about like Game Night. This deserves lot more attention. Plus, a wonderful directorial debut by Olivia Wilde. @Tommy put this on your list, I am certain you will like this.
  16. Watched Godzilla : King of Monsters. The only difference between this movie and C grade monster movies like sharkcroc or spidershark is the high budget special effects and good actors.
  17. Funniest and strangest thing I have come across in a while.
  18. The most unsurprising news of the year. I reckon we will never know the names of all the scums he provided young girls to, apart from the few rumours.
  19. Watched the new Aladdin , and it was not that good. I also didn't like how they reduced the little things that made the original movie good. Like the tiger's role, Aladdin and Abu's interactions, etc. Will Smith has made an earnest effort with his genie, but he is not a patch on Robin Williams. It was an impossible task anyways. Robin was unique. Noami Scott is likeable, but the lad who plays Aladdin and the villain make no impact.
  20. Milner and Robbo discussing and rating biscuits is highly entertaining content. Whoever came up with this idea deserves a medal.
  21. Didn't know where to post this. Thought this thread would be apt. This just happened in @Stan's home state. Lucky dog.
