Here are my weekend updates saw …..completed ‘The Host’ ..saw ‘Kites’ and following is my vishesh tipani about the two
‘The Host’ by stephenie Meyer – It’s a pretty HUGE book considering the number of pages and characters involved. I did liked it in bits and pieces but it doesn’t grips you like twilight did so if a sequel is planned for it I doubt I would be reading it in contrast with twilight were I was dying to read them.
The best part about this book is the relationship between Wanda and Melanie the two main protagonist. The main trouble was that this book had the faint scent of twilight i could relate certain charcters within the two books here it is - :
1.Wanda/Melanie - Bella
2. Jared/Ian - Edward
3. Kyle - Jasper
4. Jaime - Alice
5. Jef - Carlisle
6. Seeker - This one I couldn’t Map(fill in if u have read the book)
7. Mangolia - Rosalie
Well..maybe I vampires charm me more than Aliens……..
Kites - : The much awaited movie finally hit screens last weekend and what a disappointment it was, nothing worth mentioning about this movie hence I will keep this review short and simple. “People please don’t waste your money as movie doesn’t live it up”.
Newspapers report that movie made 21Cr in three days and is second to 3 Idiots in terms of opening collection (off course idiots like me are there to splurge)
The meanest thing is that all the theaters (including the doomed one near my house) have increased the ticket prize (gwad… cashing on this hopeless movie yuukiess)
The parallel that I noticed between the above mentioned was both had a lot of hype surrounding them. Coming from extremely creative people they were bound to do so….a lot of media attention, publicity marked their release yet they failed ‘the mark’. Could over publicity lead to failure….well this is something I am not so sure about. Take KJo for example his movies follow the same trend. But somehow I have always liked the way he markets them. let’s see if his forthcoming movie ‘ I hate love stories’ would live upto expectations or not btw I quite like its title and off course Imran Khan though he is all looks and no substance.
Anyways….thats all from me …i am planning to revive my french dreams so hopefully i mite start blogging in french (kidding!!)
