Heading back to high school. Everyone agrees that John Tucker Must Die (2006) was a terrible movie. It didn’t stop any of us from watching it (more than once). Now, 18 years later, a sequel has been confirmed. Will they ruin it by trying to be politically correct? Or will jock John Tucker get what’s coming to him? Either way, it’s on the watchlist.

Giving Pankaj Tripathi a salute.

Pankaj Tripathi steals the show in Homi Adajania’s film Murder Mubarak.

He steals the show in Homi Adajania’s film Murder Mubarak. And this is a film that also stars Dimple Kapadia, Sanjay Kapoor, Tisca Chopra and Karisma Kapoor. Tripathi plays a bumbling, murder-solving police official, a mix of Sherlock Holmes and Inspector Clouseau. He’s a cop who doesn’t look like a cop, unreliable and easy to manipulate. But he proves everyone wrong with his observational skills. Poirot, is that you?

Dying to sing along.

Joker: Folie à Deux releases in October.

Joker: Folie à Deux releases in October. We were already excited about Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga serenading us and now, even more so. The movie is being marketed as a jukebox musical, with 15 covers of “very well-known” songs. We know that Judy Garland’s That’s Entertainment from the 1953 musical The Band Wagon is on the list. Just release the set already so we can start practising.

Still in shock. After last year’s gory (and terribly rated) Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey, and this year’s worse sequel, the makers of the films have had the audacity to say that they’re creating a “twisted childhood universe” and will pick up more beloved characters to ~ruin~ adapt. Oh hunny, no.

Calling out IPL for animal cruelty.

A stray dog entered the field during the Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians match in Ahmedabad.

When a stray dog entered the field during the Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians match in Ahmedabad, the staff and cops chased it away with kicks. At football matches abroad, furry interruptions are handled better. Staff and players calmly catch or lead the pupper away. Time for a sensitivity check?

Seeing Satan everywhere. American horror flick Late Night With the Devil earned $666,666 in last weekend. Can you imagine the folks counting? The plot stems from a live (but fictional, relax) television broadcast in 1977, which unleashes evil into people’s living rooms. It’s made 2.8 million since, a much-less-scary figure.
