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!

The End...

This is the final post in this blog. Nearly five years ago, I started this blog from an Internet Cafe. 5 years on, the blog has probably chronicled my state of being. The triumphs, losses, disappointments et al. All this while, I have been experimenting with lot of things and even tried to switch the blog multiple times. This time the switch is for real. I want a fresh start without the baggage. You could even say I am a little inspired by Up in the Air. I don't really have an ETA for a new blog. I could start posting today, tomorrow, or never. Go to: Idle thoughts and update your references. See you out there! Signing off with these words from Jim Morrison: This is the end Beautiful friend This is the end My only friend, the end Of our elaborate plans, the end Of everything that stands, the end No safety or surprise, the end I'll never look into your eyes...again Can you picture what will be So limitless and free Desperately in need...of some...stranger's...

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. ...
