From the age of six, Watson wanted to become an actress, and for a number of years she trained at the Oxford branch of Stagecoach Theatre Arts, a part-time theatre school where she studied singing, dancing and acting. By the age of ten, she had performed in various Stagecoach productions and school plays, including Arthur: The Young Years and The Happy Prince, but she had never acted professionally before the Harry Potter series. "I had no idea of the scale of the film series," she stated in a 2007 interview with Parade; "if I had I would have been completely overwhelmed.

The top ten are:

1. Michael Bay, producer-director ($125 million)

2. Steven Spielberg, producer-director ($85 million)

4. James Cameron, producer-director ($50 million)

Kites movie i want my paisa vapas

Kites (New Hindi Film / Bollywood Movie / Indian Cinema CD)

Film: Kites. Cast: Hrithik Roshan, Barbara Mori, Kangana Ranaut. A bleeding and bullet hit Jay (Hrithik Roshan), who is dressed like a matador, mysteriously rolls off the carriage of a train. After the bullet is removed and dunked into a glass of whiskey, the intense, bearded young man limps his way across a desert. A sweet, old gentleman shouts out something in Spanish. The subtitles (in Hindi) read ‘I hope you find your lost love.’ You know instantly that you are watching what maybe India’s first tri-lingual. One only wishes that they had tried harder.

In spite of a sharp and promising start Kites doesn’t fly. It’s a case of old wine in a new bottle, re-telling the classic Bollywood story of love against all odds and is replete with passionate lovers, menacing villains, singing and dancing and fighting and romancing.

The Vegas based Jay will do anything for money. We see him marry a dozen girls to get them a green card for hard cash. One day, he decides too woo the depressive but filthy rich Gina (Kangana Ranaut in yet another psycho-chick role). Jay and Gina win a dance competition (yes, Jay is also a dancer/choreographer) and not only does Jay have the curly haired girl swooning to his beat, he also charms her father Bob (Kabir Bedi). So impressed is Bob with the boys talents and his daughters gushing that he invites Jay to his sons engagement and treats him like family.

Is it true to movies ? You can judge the movie in first 3 minutes on seeing the titles and introduction and judge how much efforts the production team has made to make the movie. The opening sequence of Peter Brooks Mahabharata captures your full attention as it talks about you.

Transcript of the opening sequence of Peter Brooks Mahabharata

Vyasa: Do you know how to write ?
Boy : No
Vyasa: I have composed a great poem. I have composed it all but nothing is written. I need someone to write down what I know.
Boy : What's you name ?
Vyasa: Vyasa
Boy : What's your poem about ?
Vyasa: It's about You.
Boy : Me.
Vyasa: Yes. It is the story of your race. How your ancestors were born. How they grew. How vast war arose. It is the poetical history of mankind. If you listen carefully, at the end you will be someone else.

I saw few clips of the movie on You Tube. It is really powerful and thought provoking. I decided to buy the DVD from Amazon for a full experience.

The Ghost movie - a critical review

The Ghost, a Roman Polanksi movie is a film adaptation of the Robert Harris novel The Ghost. I watched the movie yesterday and here is the plot.

When a successful British ghost writer(Ewan McGregor) agrees to complete the memoirs of former British Prime Minister Adam Lang(Pierce Brosnan), his agent assures him it's the opportunity of a lifetime. But the project seems doomed from the start—not least because his predecessor on the project, Lang's long-term aide, died in an accident. The ghostwriter flies out to work on the project, in the middle of winter, to an oceanfront house on an island off the U.S. Eastern seaboard. But the day he arrives, a former British cabinet minister accuses Lang of authorizing the illegal seizure of suspected terrorists and handing them over for torture by the CIA—a war crime.

The controversy brings reporters and protesters swarming to the island mansion where Lang is staying with his wife, Ruth(Olivia Williams), and his personal assistant (and mistress), Amelia (Kim Cattrall). As the ghostwriter works, he uncovers clues suggesting his predecessor may have stumbled on a dark secret linking Lang to the CIA—and that somehow this information is hidden in the manuscript he left behind.

My Review

Underutilized Pearce Brosnan. The film is about him but you struggle to find him.
It is a cross of Angels and Demons and National Treasure: Book of Secrets. Originally Nicolas Cage was to play the Ghost Writer
128 minutes of entertainment followed by12 hours of analysis.

Vote best movie of James Cameron

Dear John, a sentimental film set against American army background, autism and 9/11, broke quite a few records as it unseated Avatar in its eight week at the North American box office. Cast Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried.

Plot: A romantic drama about a soldier who falls for a conservative college student while he's home on leave.

I watched Avatar movie in 3D. The computer graphics was really fantastic and very good. But while I watching the movie I felt movie Independence Day was much more engaging. May be because humans were fighting aliens !!! In Avatar - humans were aliens. So there was little less sympathy.

I watched the movie again in 2D i.e without one dimension. This time, I wanted to be involved with the story and see from director's point of view. But somehow I was not able to feel the emotions of Navi's like how I felt for Rose DeWitt Bukater in Titanic.

I like James Cameron movies but somehow I feel his action/drama movies are much better than sci-fi/alien ones.

Martin Sierra - The man with big hair, big personality and big moves grew up in Norway with his mum, dad and 3 brothers.Martin Sierra He came to the UK to study at LIPA (Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts). Martin said he came to the UK, "with a suitcase and a dream."

When he first appeared on Got To Dance Martin made quite an entrance. He danced his heart out but only got one Gold Star from judge Adam Garcia. That was not good enough. Later Adam Garcia gave him a chance by persuading his fellow judges for Martin Sierra, a place in semi final. However he never made it to the final, b'cos he has to "Got to Dance" than perform routine.

First performance

Semi Final performance

The judges had good tips to be successful

1. Go back to basics: If you are not hitting the nail on its head, then find out what you to do make it work. If your skills are not up-to-speed, sharpen your skills.

My Favourites to Win on Sky Got to Dance 2010

LG 32LH30 32-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV, Gloss Black

I have been watching the dance talent competition "Got to Dance" on Sky in the UK. It is good to see a lot of talented dancers who have been performing at their schools, institutions or towns shown on National Television. It presents them with an opportunity to showcase their talents to millions on TV and the internet. Furthermore, it gives the audience an insight into the various forms of dance.

My favourites to win Got to Dance competition 2010 would be either

Matthew Koon - He dances with elegance, passion and innocence. Dance is about how a person feels and whether he is able to make the audience feel the same way. Matthew's dance always expresses a story,and takes the audience and the judges with him on his journey.I think he is unique and fascinating to watch.

The Box - This group has imagination, stage presence and cohesiveness which are essential ingredients in performing a dance act. They have their audiences spell bound with eyes wide open and leave them with a feeling of emptiness when they disappear back in the box.I think they are little wonders with lots of potential and the 'cute' factor.

I feel mathematics, figures and English will be invented in popular shows like American Idol and people will start using it. Randy Jackson's quote, "I give one billion percent "Yes".

Popularity of shows like these add phrases and words to English dictionary. Popular movie like Slumdog Millionaire has added the word "Slumdog" and "Jai Ho" in popular usage.

It is only a matter of time, "One billion percent" will be used commonly everywhere.

Princess Victoria Desiree of Sweden marries Daniel Westling

Victoria Ingrid Alice Desiree, the Crown Princess of Sweden, has married a commoner–her former personal trainer, Daniel Westling on Saturday (June 19, 2010).

Upon marriage, Westling, 36, was made as a Prince of Sweden. He then took the full title of His Royal Highness Prince Daniel of Sweden, Duke of Västergötland. This made him at par with his wife’s younger brother and former heir to the throne, His Royal Highness, Prince Carl Philip, Duke of Värmland. Unlike in fairy tales, real life monarchy does not guarantee that a man marrying a princess will become a prince; much more use the titles of his wife.

What happens if Prince or Princess marries a commoner ?

Nowdays, the royal family members are more free to choose whom they wish to marry provided that their significant other isn't a Catholic. The younger royal generation prefers to find their match while studying at a chosen university, through friends at social gatherings etc.

However, one rule remains whether commoner or royalty, a woman marrying an heir or king of that nation will receive a courtesy title of "Princess or Queen" as a consort, she does not have any right to claim the throne. The crown will always go to any of their surviving offspring, if not then to a younger sibling of the King.

What catches peoples attention

When you are in a advertising world, it is very difficult to know what will catch peoples attention. And then engage you for next 30 seconds. As I was searching for answers, I came across a question which was posted on Yahoo Answers.

What can i do to catch a guys attention?

There is this one guy in my class who is soo hot and i want him to notice me and realize i'm into the same stuff, any suggestions ?

------

There is an interesting answer

Just try to be his friend at first, but don't look desperate, that is so unattractive, even to someone just looking for a friend. Play it cool and mention things casually. Even ask him for help with assignments or offer to help him with his, but don't be pushy. Keep this is mind, even though some men are shy, if they really want you, they will come to you.(Shy men will respond positively to the suggests I gave you.)

I have highlighted the key words which is sort of mantra to a good eye catching campaign. I would invite you look at the following ads and let me know

Whether you will glance at the TV when the ads comes on
Whether remembered the product after the ad disappeared

Ad - 1

Ad - 2

There are two theories to test

What catches peoples attention ?
Do people remember the product in the eye catching campaign ?
