The soaps!

I do not watch that much television as I used to do so, but my mum gets to watch her soaps every single day. So, on one of my off days, I made the mistake of asking her to explain the story to me in one of her soaps, which by the way, showed a major character dying in that episode.

She did tell me the story, et al and now when I saw the soap again,believe it or not, that particular character has come back to life. I am a bit shocked at how ruthless these television production houses are in reality. In the hurry to make money, they certainly do not mind making the public swallow whatever swill they give out by way of these soaps. I understand that most of these sopas pander to the stay at home mums and the old age crowd. I can understand that, but what I cannot put up with are the ridiculous story lines that all soaps, whether they are made in America or in India, have in common! Enough is enough, start treating us seriously!

Movies: the worst of 2007!


I have to say that of all the movies that I saw and did not see, but have based my review on my friends who saw it, I have posted the list of some of the worst movies of 2007, here.
WORST MOVIES OF 2007:

1.Because I Said So -this one is so boring that I actually fell asleep during parts of it.

2.Norbit - This has already been done, the ugly date and everything else. We all know that eddie murphy loves to dress up , so there is nothing new here.

3.Premonition - want to have a premonition as to how badly you stunk?

4.Code Name: The Cleaner - yeah! the only thing that this movie did was to clean out the theater totally!

5.night at the museum - for the kids and only for the kids, maybe your 5 year old will enjoy this!

6.die hard 4 - come on, mclaine must desist. we have had enough,please. Instead of making the story interesting all we get are a series of explosions and that is all!

7.the last legion - ok, if you are a history buff, but even there I believe that they have got a some of the major facts really wrong.

8.bug - one word - disgusting and not even in the entertaining way or so I have heard, thank god, I have not seen it yet.

9.the reaping-hilary swank - really lousy acting by one and all, they should prob give an award to this one for some of the really worst acting onehas ever seen since we saw Harrison ford in that jealous rage on star wars.

10.hostel part 2 - do not even go there, again, this one I have not sen yet, but I believe that this one is relly bad, even worse than Norbit.

Movies: the very best of 2007!


The list below will give you the best movies of 2007, at least the movies that I consider to be really good especially when you compare them to some of the worst movies of 2007 like Norbit. Anyway the list is all given below! Happy watching!

THE BEST MOVIES OF 2007 :

1. spiderman3 - I have to say that although there were some parts of the movie that I did not like, but on the whole , this movie just about lived up to its expectations, barely.

2.ratatouille - this is by far the winner of all the movies that I saw this year, really funny and satirical at the same time, really enjoyable.

3.the bourne ultimatum - This movie is so good that I do not think that I have to really say much here, the fight sequences are really well choreagraphed, the first one and the last 2, really good and is very interesting to watch.

4.zodiac - This one is truly spine chilling, especially in the methodical way that the crimes are being committed.

5.hairspray - This is one movie where you need to park your brain at the front door and have a good laugh.

6.300 - I know that there are a lot of people who think that this is one of the worst movies, but I have to say that I consider this to be one of the best in the sense that the movie really captures the spirit of the story and the fight to the end.

7. the simpsons movie - really funny and Homer really lived up to everyone's expectations. I just hope that there is a sequel to this one soon.

8.beyond the gates - not so enthralling but really interesting to watch.

9.harry potter and the order of the phoenix - This one I liked and disliked, it was well done and truth be told, there is only so much of the book they can cram into the movie. But I also disliked it in the sense, The acting was all a little too robotic.

10.the namesake - a really beautiful movie to watch and it does emphasise the saying, a rose by any other name will smell as..."

How hard is it to get sports tickets?


The answer to the above query is quite obviously a big and resounding 'very'. As humans we all love our various sports, from a bloody sport like Boxing to car racing to Tennis to Golf. There is no sport event in the world that does not have a fanatic following somewhere. Lets take the Formula-1 event, do you know how hard it is to get tickets to that event in partticular,it is very very difficult not to mention the Q that will be going on and on in front of the ticket stalls. Which is why whenever I want to get some Formula 1 Tickets I approach Viagogo, as they always get me the tickets that I wanted, the right ones inculding the row and seat that I would have preferred.

Tickets to sports events in Europe are mostly sold out as they are literally a sport crazy continent. Take the most sedentary sport that you can think of, like say Golf. You will find that even the Golf Tickets tend to get sold out at most of these Golf opens. With such a demand on the tickets one may often have to go to the right ticket hubs to get ones tickets, like the Viagogo.

Tennis, a sport that has always fascinated us time and time again and amongst some of the most famous events that take place in the game of Tennis is the annual Wimbeldon event which besides being attended by many is also seen by many the world over. As such getting the Tennis Tickets to these events is easier said than done. Which is why one should approach ticket hubs like the Viagogo to get ones tickets without any fuss whatsoever. I have to say that there is something fascinating to see two talented players to try and battle it out in the middle of a tennis court. Anyway if you are in need of tickets to a tennis game or any other sports event, or to any otehr form of entertainment then just go to the links above and purchase them! have a nice day!

The concert tickets at the click!


Everyone loves to go to a concert or a ballet or a musical. But to actually go to one, that is to get the tickets is easier said than done. Which is why I for one am glad that there are ticket hubs like the Viagogo where we can get the Tickets to the latest shows at the drop of the hat,literally!
Recently I had travelled to Munich and wanted to take in some of the concerts that were being hosted there. But to my surprise I found that nearly all europeans love their concerts and as a result I had to spend that night watching the concert in the telly. If this is your first time to Europe and Berlin, you should remember that the germans in particular love their operas and concerts and if you plan to talk in the middle of a show, you may get kicked out of the hall. Why am I saying that here,well, because it has happened to me. I guess Europeans in general love their show and as such would not like to see someone talking in the middle of a show. Anyway, I finally managed to get the Konzert Tickets through Viagogo and I have to say that the service was very fast and getting the tickets to the particular concert I wanted to see was no problem at all.
Thorugh this leading ticket hub, one can also get theater tickets and tickets to musicals like the kind that you may hae seen on the broadway. Getting the Theater Tickets was a lesson in itself, in the sense that I had tried some of the other ticket hubs just to see if they could proide me the same quality of serice that I had gotten at Viagogo,but sadly they could not even get me a booking. I have to say that as a ticket hub these guys have impressed me to no end and in the future whenever I travel to Europe, these guys are the ones that I will use for all my ticket purchases! Go to the links above and you will see what I am talking about!

Amelia Earhart - still a mystery!


Even today amelia earhart still is a mystery.no one knows what really happened to her.one day she flew into the mist and thats all that was wrote.it is almost like she disappeared in to the mist.there have been numerous conspiracy theories about her disappearence including alien abduction to the bermida triangle.but she still remians a mystery. The movie on this woman was equally enthralling but one can only wish that it had the right conclusion to it all. The art of disappearing ionto thin air seems to have been perfected by Amelia because in the end that is what she did.

And now this mystery woman is having an exhibiiton of sorts,all her personal items of hers, opened in Oklahoma City museum.so if you are there,do drop in and say a big hi to Amelia Earhart- the woman of mystery!
