The_Dark_Knight
A Silent Guardian
Just watched 'Batman Forever' by Joel Schumacher. OMG! That guy almost turned my movies into Sitcoms. I'm wondering if I could meet him some day. Sit down together, have a cup of coffee, talk politics, rip out a couple of his balls maybe. Nothing fancy.

The_Dark_Knight
A Silent Guardian
The hero that Digit deserves but not the one it needs right now. So, you'll bash him and spam him because he can take it. You can't ban him. He's an idea. Incorruptible. Intimidating. Terrifying. Unbannable.
You'll set trojans on me, you'll condemn me. It doesn't matter because I use Linux.

Democracy is a myth
The Social Network 7.5/10
So I went for this movie last night. 10.30PM was the show and I managed to get out of office at 9.30. Went home home, ate (swallowed would be a better word of choice) and ran for theater. Good thing is the theater is just 10 mins (by auto) from my home so getting there and ticket (obvious that none would come to this hall on a 10.30PM show for an unknown movie) was no issue.
At most 20people turned up for the show.
The movie started and soon I found I was eager to know what happened next.
Mac's character was drawn in a grey scale. Even his friends all are shown as grey characters. Mix of good and bad. I would really appreciate Jesse Eisenberg's acting portraying Marc. He just made the character alive on screen.
+ve points about the movie
->Jesse Eisenberg.
->Based on true story. Things might not have happened exactly as they showed in the movie.
->Till now you saw various success stories about oil co., hotel etc, now TSN (The social Network) was something that geeks can relate to.
-ve points
->Lacks entertainment quotient. Script could be made more dramatic. Its like you expect "Back to the future" and are shown "Primer"
->The dialogs are too speedy. Specially dialogs on Marcs mouth. Well I've seen enough movies to make a statement like that, I guess. I don't why they did it, but it may be that, they did not want us to point out how foolish the algo. looks which is portrayed to be so intelligent.
->Our sensor board edited all cuss words from the movie. Hence you will miss all the punchlines
P.S. When I hard first time such a movie was being made, I decided not to watch. Then I started using Facebook, and thought about giving it a try. After watching the movie last night, to be honest, I was bored. But since then only one thing is flashing in front of my eyes is the character of Marc. That is some awesome piece of acting...kudos to Jesse Eisenberg

Ye Maaya Chesave 7/10
If only the movie would have been half hour short, would have rated it 7.5.
A sweet love story which has an unusual ending.
The girl Samantha is a discovery for this movie. Her acting seemed more mature than the lead her. To summarize her, she is beautiful, looks awesome in sari and talented.
The hero....wellllnot impressed by him.
Don't know why the movie was given such a slow trwatment....at times it really bores you.
But, one thing I would really appreciate about the director for avoiding five most (could have been) clichéd moments. Girl hugging biy and father/brother shows up...etc, he simply avoided that...Good
