The Dark Knight Countdown

The Dark Knight releases on July 18th. Forty two days more. There is this thing about movies, the more you anticipate one, the more terrible it would turn out to be. Christopher Nolan - Christian Bale combo has given the right mix of everything in the past to make an interesting, watchable movie. And it’s Heath Ledger’s performance as ‘The Joker’ that would set this movie apart from other Batman movies. He sort of overwhelms Batman in the teasers.

Support Vijayakanth!

Yes, we need to support this humble and irascible, actor turned politician who dislikes the word ‘Mercy’ in Tamil. We have to mobilize enough support for him to overthrow the likes of Harrison Ford from defiling his amazing stunt moves in Tamil movies. Harrison Ford, in his new Indiana Jones movie has tried to usurp our Gabtan’s throne. How dare he tries to outdo our Gabtan’s work? Do George Lucas and Steven Spielberg feel threatened so much so they try to pull this cheap trick off?

Gabtan

FAIL! Lucas & Spielberg

Harrison Ford escapes from a frigging nuclear blast in the Indiana Jones movie and even stands and watches the mushroom cloud over the site arrogantly. This is indeed a clear warning to our Gabtan and the Tamil movie industry which has untiringly come up with new gravity defying stunt moves and punch one liners tailored for Gabtan, movie after movie. As a ardent fan of his, I ask of you only this. Do not watch ‘Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull’ or the Tamil dubbed version ‘Indiana jones’um Crystal Mandai Odin Rajaangam’um’. There is always the Gabtan movie, ‘Arasangam’. Jai Hind!
