I had my first encounter with Bollywood tonight. The film was Dhoom:2 and it was amazing. It's an epic film, the story of a criminal mastermind (and master of disguise) and the cops who are after him. It was filled with action, drama, comedy, a love story, musical numbers, and special effects. That soundtrack! I actually found the best thing to listen to after that movie, and it turned out to be mashups from thehoodinternet.com. The film was mostly in Hindi, but there were often phrases, or sometimes just single words in the middle of a phrase in English. Overall, this movie was grossly over-the-top, but I loved it.

This is the first musical number. The criminal mastermind is the one in the wife beater and green scarf.

Get your head in the game.
I just finished watching High School Musical. I wouldn't say that it's the best movie ever, but it's definitely in the top 10.

Till my belly hangs over my belt
New music Tuesday!
Yes, it is new music Tuesday, which this week means the latest release from Sigur Rós, "Hvarf/Heim". It contains some new recordings, some re-recordings, and some live recordings. And well, since Sigur Rós is one of my favorite bands, I'm overjoyed. I'm looking more forward to the DVD "Heima" that they are releasing on November 20, though. That should be killer.
Today I also picked up the latest release from The Gunshy, "There Is No Love In This War". The lyrics consist mainly of letters by Paul Arbogast, Matt Arbogast's (The Gunshy) grandfather, to his sweetheart (and eventually his wife) during WWII. The cd is black with the following handwritten text in white:
The Gunshy - May 14, 1943
And on a different front, I went out with Kate, Andrew, and Jeff to play foosball in Old Town. It was awesome. And intense. And definitely needs to be done again. Also, Kate's dog, Widget, is awesome. (aka I want a puppy)
All that's left for tonight is to relax, knit, and watch the other recent purchase of Ratatouille. :-)
