2012....The movie....CRAP!!!


UNFORTUNATELY.....I planned last minute to go with my friends to a movie called "2012". Waste of money!! The only thing that I went was I was very curious to know about the things that would be shown regarding that year(Post for that after this)


If you have seen a single advertisement for 2012, you know what this movie is. I’m not saying you know the plot (as if it mattered) or anything like that. You know that the world ends in a spectacular fashion and all you have to do then is extend that out to 2 ½ hours and you have a movie that is completely boring to the point of exhaustion.

The real tragedy is this: 2012's production cost an estimated $200-odd million dollars. What's worse, it'll probably make that money back, spawning a sequel called 2013. I hope...the director spares us that horror!!

And if this movie turns out to be an accurate vision of our future, then at least our cell phones will work no matter how little of the Earth remains, planes will be so easy to fly that someone with only two flying lessons can co-pilot a cargo plane, and our cars and even our campers will have the handling to make razor sharp turns.

With such an exciting world, it’s a shame that the neutrinos in our planet’s core change so that the entire crust of our planet shifts. I wonder....how the Mayan's knew about this??

Overall...I would rate the movie 1/5...ONLY BECAUSE OF the great effects and...just because...they have shown the destruction of U.S.A?? :)

English defines class...does it??

Actually....I had almost stopped writing my blog....but after some incidents...I thought it was necessary to put forward my views.....

I know many people who think that speaking in english makes them of a higher class....these are not the people who dont know or understand marathi (my mother tongue) but they think that speaking in marathi is very down-market (that's what "they" say)

There are many young people(14 above ) or as a matter of fact even some middle-aged people....who are not ready or rather I must say disgusted or feel low-class speaking their mother tongue!!! English is a language accepted globally, I agree....but that doesn't mean people become high class if they speak in English.....I have many friends who speak in English just because they are comfortable with it....but they do it with due respect to other languages....but these so called "HIGH CLASS" people just dont care....today.....I have many friends....who refuse to call their parents 'aai' and 'baba' i.e. mother and father in marathi.....they prefer mom and dad over it.....this is just an example...there are loads of other instances...

These are the people who would curse leaders like Raj Thackrey....because what he says is true though I dont justify the methods which he uses.....I would like to appeal to all the people that please speak in whatever language you wish but NEVER side-line anybody or just make fun of somebody just because that person doesnt speak english....

I can see this situation in big cities.....I hope that this is not the situation in other states of our motherland and hope that people will atleast stop their superiority complex....

Students and Politics

Do students ever think of Politics? Most of them must not be thinking of it. The question whether students should take part in politics has brought up many debates....especially does not care about Politics. Politics is so called dirty game. But I never agree to this. Of course, it has some disadvantages. No need to tell that people who enter this exciting game should be mentally strong. But for students it is only wastage of time, distraction from studies. Politics covers all the interests of life-Political, economic, social and cultural. Being a politician is not easy. He has to be skillful. He should have a fair amount of knowledge in history geography, economics and other allied subjects. He should have the power and skill of Public Speaking. He should have to skill to make people understand things from his point of view. Not all Politicians are bad....and we can increase the number by joining it......
