some of the ideas are interesting but execution is typical bollywood.

Dunno if I read it here before about Avatar but we think blue people in some fantasy setting is an awesome film while Indian audiences consider that tired and redundant - they've got all that sort of stuff in their religion and mythologies. To them running about in the street singing and dancing is totally awesome.

In short it's about cultural differences. And I'd rather watch the above film rather than the likes of Inception which turns the wonder of dreaming into a moronic heist procedural. To be fair though, most Hollywood films are utter tosh. Yet to quote you, do Western audiences "sit there thinking that they're watching the best movie ever?"

I really have to ask though..
I mean, it seems obvious to me, but I'm not sure.
Do Indian people actually know how terribad their movies actually are, and sit there facepalming like we do? Or do most of them not actually know anything better, and sit there thinking that they're watching the best movie ever?

Lawl... looks like bollywood finally discovered CGI.

Just watch the western audience of a Michael Bay Transformer movie ... people are dumb all over the world

Poor Eddie Munster, reduced to doing Bollywood. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

bollywood is such a complete crap.
How can someone like that, and not be indian is beyond me.

This very film with all it's matrix/terminator ripoff goodness, "Jaani Dushman", will be screening here in Los Angeles on Saturday night at The Cinefamily as part of a month long series HolyFuckingShit - Can't Stop The Musicals! Cuz on top of being some mind blowing badness, it has a musical number! No REALLY! watch it!

Ohhh a Bollywood Avatar would be great... Imagine the dance routines they would have with the hair/reproductive tract/Mindcontrol thingie...>> ^Croccydile:

Still better than the CGI in X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
I wonder if they are producing a Bollywood version of Avatar as we speak...

At first I had hope- because it's being directed by the guy who did District 9. But then I forgot the rule that all videogame to movie conversions must be pure shit.

You sound like a man that has lost all hope.>> ^dag:
I think I'd rather see this movie- than the utter and abject failure that will be the actual one.




I still hold out hope.

As for Neil Blonkamp, district 9 was an excellent movie but I don't think his style was right for Halo. Give me Guillermo Del Toro or, better yet, make the whole thing mo-cap.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
