    9: 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-PTOOF!
    Shane Acker, all said and done, sure got one thing right. If you’re going to make an addendum to one of the most beloved artifacts in the pop culture universe and if you don’t want to commit a McG-sized (Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, Terminator Salvation) motion picture embarrassment, the guy you take notes from is the one and only Mr. James Cameron.

    Plan 9 from Dimension X
    The delusional is our only hope.’ – Chairman Mick Farren If you’re looking for reality in the cinema (whatever that may be), if your delicate senses are offended by the grotesque pageantry of the human imagination, if you like to strut around all-goody-two-shoes trying to uphold the merits of practicality… well, take a hike honey....

    Musings on a film-maker’s journey

    My Short Kung Fu Comedy Film, and About Martial Arts in Films

As he wants to make to make a short film first and wanted to understand the basic differences between a full length feature and a short length feature, so instead of writing only to him, I thought I should share it with...

    Stop cribbing & start writing…the contest is here….
    ….thats what i told myself. I am also struggling with my words these days. Like me, i know so many who want to write. And the keyword is “want” and not “write”. Because we are more concerned about why, whom, what, where,how, for whom ? Enough. Check out the contest “Pen Uthao Bollywood Hilao” what it is about ? I can walk stories,...
