I am Legend (Not...)

I am Legend is a really good movie for the first half of it's running time and then it turns into utter crap. Will Smith gives a fantastic performance and it is a pity that the haphazard third act with plot holes galore ruins the movie. What made the movie interesting was the lady sitting right in front of me who for some reason wouldn't turn off her cellphone and it rang 3 times and each time it took her longer and longer to find her cellphone and the experience wouldn't have been complete without a lovely young couple sitting right next to me, deciding to catch up on their gossip and love lives once the movie started. I reprimanded them 5 minutes into the movie and they promptly shut up and watched the movie for rest of the time. Oh my.....

I did a second round of raid to the library and got 3 more of the books that I wanted. I am currently reading 'Interpreter of Maladies' and 'A Thousand Splendid Suns'. How can I read 2 books at the same time? I have 2 eyes, no? Just kidding. 'Interpreter' is a collection of short stories and the way I read short stories is to read one a day and let it seep into you before reading the next short story, which obviously gives time to carry on reading another longer format story.

I start back at work from tomorrow and it should be a good way to get back into the groove of things. I feel primed again to start jumping back into the fray of things with all the feature projects and all - after taking a good month's break from it. First and foremost on my list is to try and get the NTSC DVD of FIVE out for sale. The rest of the things will follow.

Till later,
Amit
