Sin and Sun...

Saw Sincity yesterday...
An outstanding movie...
Very violent...so was not cleared to show in India...
Based on graphic novel series (other name for comic books!) by Steve Miller...
I have been in possession of this for a while now...thought I would see it after reading the comic...
The film unfolds as a collection of stories in which the characters intersect...The film has stayed true to the comic to the maximum...
A thorughly enjoyable ride...I loved the story 'Violent Marv'...

Oh yeah the movie is shot in black and white with colour in specific regions..like red dress, lips, blood and the yellow body of the Yellow Bastard in the eponymous episode.
The backgrounds are digitally made and is a visual treat to say the least.
Great performances from all actors...I was pleasantly surprised to see Alexis Bledel (Rorie in the sitcom The Gilmore Girls) as a young whore.
If you can grab this, then its a must watch..provided you have the stomach for blood shed...
sincity-

Had my next two rounds of interview today...Something totally out of the blue...First one was great but the HR interview was bad...I believed I sucked...
The results will be out tomorrow..Lets see what happens!

Sigh!

Why is the beer bottle so slender? I think its a deconstruction of the fact that you get a pot belly after a few beers over a period of time. Ah well, I should be taking a few sit ups! Ciao. P.S: I should be remembering the following cartoon before I start a fight with someone. Ciao again. (toon courtesy: xkcd )

Ancient Thrills

Ancient civilization. Dig. Gun. Artifact. Conspiracy. Esoterica. Professor. Prospective authors please note, you will get atleast one buyer for your book if these key words are there on your book cover. It would also help if you get someone to give comments like "Stunning!", "Tour De Force!" etc. I am such a sucker! My book collection has grown because of a few books I bought specifically due to these keywords. A small list which could well be incomplete: The Temple by Mathew Reilly Cover of Temple Peru. Inca. Idol. Guns. Pretty decent. Good read on a lonely day. Seven Ancient Wonders by Mathew Reilly Decent book. Lots of traps and thrills. Moments like the discovery of the Hanging Gardens are really good. Six Sacred Stones by Mathew Reilly Sequel to the above book. Same old stuff. The ending is a cliff hanger though. The Last Testament by Sam Bourne Cover of The Last Testament Palestine. Israel. Biblical artifact. Middle east solution. Peace talks. Okay okay book. ...
