Thor Movie --Review
I just caught up with the new 3D movie, Thor and I felt there was not a proper review in the internet which did the film full justice. And, I wanted to rectify that by writing what really captivated me and the audience in general about the movie.
I got the afternoon show at 4:15 and I was very excited as this was my first 3 D movie!
As it was a case of novelty for me, I was the person trying to catch the snow-flakes till the guy behind told me to stop catching imaginary flakes and watch the movie. But that didn't dampen my movie experience at all.In fact, by that time I was engrossed into the movie.
The movie begins on Earth wherein we're hauled into the blowing winds which rapidly becomes a tornado by a astro-scientist Jane(Natalie Portman)and her two friends Erik and Darcy.
From here, as a prelude, we are transported to the realm Asgard(ASS-GUARD, sorry I couldn't resist).
In Asgard we're introduced to Odin(Anthony Hopkins- Shining through again), Thor( Chris Hemsworth-- who looks absolutely yummy!!)and his brother Loki(Tom Hiddleston- Portrayed Loki without any hysterics) and a multitude of Thor's loyal comrades.
The realms Asgard and Jotunheim are on the brink of war and Thor arrogantly lands on the enemy realm and a fight ensues. Odin gets angry, relieves Thor of his powers and banishes him to earth. He throws the mighty Hammer so that it could be held only by a Man fit for it. How Thor changes ,retrieves the hammer and fights off the evil forces form the story.
The character sketch has been done well and the scenes with Jane and Thor a pleasure to watch, poignant and sweet. The effects and the details into the realms Asgard and the frost realm Jotunheim are breathtaking. There's never a lull in the story line and it moves at a brisk space.
However, I felt the part where the mighty Thor's change of attitude citing Jane a reason was a bit far-fetched. There were very few scenes that could lend credibility to this. And, we see Jane the brain behave like a simpering school girl during the few scenes she's around Thor.
How a virile, arrogant guy, finds a woman behaving like a school girl with her first crush, attractive, is beyond me. As a female, I'd rather have Jane maintain some womanly dignity. Thor doesn't need a girl, he needs a woman to pull his mighty rear a peg or two.
And, yes. I did drool during the scene of Chris Hemsworth without his shirt. That's an added bonus. The men and the boys get to see the action and effects while the girls and women get to see Chris and the way he kisses Jane's hand.(Ahh.. Sigh..)
Overall the movie is a family entertainer!
My Rating--4 stars

Beauty products and me
The Woman that I am: Beauty products and me: "'ve decided to jump in2 the foray in the search for the ultimate cream tat will clear my zits and give me clear skin!!I wish there was some ..."
The Free-Floaters
Every1 knows that Man is a social animal, then what about the people who travel alone or like their personal space a tad too much? Does that mean they're not social?
I make quite a few friends, stay in touch with them through electronic means and even meet few of them when the notion strikes me.
The prospect of making new friends never fazes me, what does, is the meeting of like minded people. In that aspect, I've very few pals who fit the bill. I could never be a hypocrite and be very close with people who are radically different from me.
That said, I do maintain relationships with such people too but only because either we known each other and it would be rude not to have small talk with them or we fraternize for mutual benefit.
So why are people networking and socializing with friends anyway?
* They want to relax and have fun
* They seek some help
* They do not want to be alone
All the reasons above show that Man is an opportunist in many ways. And it has been accepted because there's this symbiosis between people.
Also people try hard to please others as a means of being accepted with other people.
The ones who scorn this and live their life by means they see fit are seen as opposing to the group-friend society. I'd term them Free-Floaters.
The free-floaters are overtly social only with close friends, and have realized early on that they would rather be themselves than please everyone.
Further more I realized as a free floater ,that when you move away from people whom you do not think of as a potential friend or an annoying relative who's a change face, either they let you be yourself and keep a respectful distance, or when they know that you are not bent on pleasing them,they try their best to please you, even though that is impossible as you can see through their facade.
So if you are a Free-Floater, be glad that you have a mind of your own and you socialize with whom you want.The when and the how are entirely based on the availability, time and "your space" factor.As a free-floater, be proud that you do not belong to any cliche bandwagon.

Beauty products and me
've decided to jump in2 the foray in the search for the ultimate cream tat will clear my zits and give me clear skin!!I wish there was some super hero called the zit-eraser!!!!About 98% of the world is annoyed by zits so I am one among them..In fact am so pissed off by these pimple creams tat I wanna write a blog abt it!!!
Sometimes I wish just like Achilles’ mother who dipped him in a river believed to have had miraculous properties. I’m wishing I could dip my face!
So have I found anything worthwhile?..nope.I just blew my money on the various zit creams tat prophecied to give clear skin by removin the zits... But wat they did do was..they peeled even wat blotchy skin I had!!It made me look like some red polka dotted clown.
But hey...face washes are goood..coz they smell nice.even body washes ..coz they too smell good.kinda fruity ones make u wanna eat them suddenly giving u a liking for fruit u have no idea about!!! Well abt those pesky creams.I don care.clear skin??Who has them anyway...ok I know some ppl do..well at least I think I have an alluring personality which they might not have..
So those who are weighed down by those zits and go green when u see some1 with the skin like Lady Venus... Try applying the fruit tat u are eating on your face and still if that fails to help, keep washing your face as if ur life depended on it but sometimes even tat doesn’t work so stop worrying.. I heard tat stops zits too.
