Some movies you wish your talkative girlfriend would keep quiet. Beowulf is one of them. Adapted from a poem (for more details on history go on to wikipedia), Beowulf is a very realistic animated movie, why I say so because at the beginning I had to say, “It’s an animated movie honey!” and she replied if it looks so real why not use real people? I’ll disclose the why in the following.

Events in first half:
King Hrothgar and men celebrating.
Anthony Hopkins’s butt flash (the first why)
Introducing Grendel
Introducing Beowulf
Seamonsters
Introducing Grendel’s mother
Virtually nude Angelina Jolie (the last and final and big why)
Temptation
Beowulf the King with free Queen

Events in second half:
Guilt-filled Beowulf
Beowulf playmate
Dragon born
Climax
The end.

In summary Beowulf is a one-time watch. Nothing spectacular in the storyline but one thing I should say thou. Men can’t say no to hot sexy Angelina Jolie.

The Empty Page

What to write? A million words in mind but nothing on paper. Scattered thoughts but nothing concrete. Source of inspiration, nothing. Should I write about a song, I am listening to. Or the ones that I want to. What to write? It’s not a writer’s block. It’s just nothing. Should I write about love? Or what I hate. What to write? How about a poem? Or a song? What should it be about? What to write?  How about a joke?  “Knock knock”, who’s there?  "Nothing." What to write? How about nothing.

Getting married.

A guy like me getting married is unthinkable for people who know me. The whole concept of holy matrimony according to me is completely inevitable, in a land called India at least. So why the surprise I wonder? People change for better or for worse but they do change. Am I sounding matured? If yes, I have changed. If no, you are still the same.

Shopping is life, life is shopping

Our marriage shopping is over, we got married! Reason for more shopping... my brother's marriage shopping, then casual shopping, then birthday shopping, then his bro's marriage shopping... two people don't seem to be affected by recession... better worded - two people have gone crazy after recession.
