The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part -1

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part -1 The Twilight Saga, is a love story between 18-year-old Bella Swan (Stewart) and vampire Edward Cullen (Pattinson). In Breaking Dawn: Part 1 The newfound married bliss of Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) is cut short when a series of betrayals and misfortunes threatens to destroy their world. After their wedding, Bella and Edward travel to Isle Esme for their honeymoon, where they finally consummate their marriage. Bella soon discovers she is pregnant, and during a nearly fatal childbirth, Edward finally fulfills her wish to become immortal. But the arrival of their remarkable daughter, Renesmee, sets in motion a perilous chain of events that pits the Cullens and their allies against the Volturi, the fearsome council of vampire leaders, setting the stage for an all-out battle. In the end of the movie, Bella, with her baby cut out of her and injected with vampire venom, finally wakes up from a coma. The movie concludes with Bella's eyes opening, her eyes now red, implying she is now a new-born vampire.

There just isn’t enough character drama to sustain the second half. Exchanges between Jacob and Edward, though volatile, are fleeting at best, and interactions with the Cullen family are insignificant. There are some strong moments, particularly from Lautner, who shows true angst as he tries to support Bella and yet stay true to the legacy of his pack. Stewart shows glimpses of strength, turning in a convincing performance as a young woman coming to grips with an unexpected pregnancy.

Norman

 Norman
Norman Long is a high school loner, a self-aware and darkly funny teen who’s just trying to handle his daily existence. In the wake of his mother’s sudden death, Norman must now also deal with the reality that his father is starting to lose his battle with stomach cancer.

Norman, depressed and angry, unintentionally gets caught in a lie that he, in fact, has stomach cancer. Soon his complete distortion of the facts spirals out of control. Part coping mechanism, partially as a way to feel closer to his father, and to a certain degree to prepare others for his possible suicide, Norman begins to imitate his father’s debilitating physical symptoms, dramatically affecting his life and the world around him.

Emily, a magnetic girl with one of those rare enchanting smiles, gets caught up in Norman’s fabrication and struggles with her deep rooted romantic feelings in the face of Norman’s “impending” death. Ultimately, Norman must confront a burning set of conflicting emotions as he struggles to define his relationship with his father, his love for Emily, and ultimately who he will be as a young man.

'Bachelor Pad' 2 Finale : Winners and Losers

It's the season finale of Bachelor Pad, and this one is supersized again, just to go out with a bang! (Like from a gun. Shooting you in the face.) So buckle in for three hours of idiocy as the four remaining couples -- Michelle & Graham, Kasey & Vienna, Kirk & Ella and Michael & Holly -- attempt to sharpen their last shards of dignity into the shape of a sword so as to stab each other in the back for that final prize of $250,000. But at least they'll all walk away with what they really wanted, which was more attention for doing close to nothing.

The couples each visit the training room to learn choreography for a sixty second routine.  Michael and Holly are first to attempt to synch up on the wall – it’s tough.  Graham tries to be tough for Michelle’s sake, but confides to the camera that he’s not okay with heights and is literally pissing down his leg! Riveting stuff only the week before the real TV shows start could handle it all! (AND it's happening at the same time as the latest GOP presidential debate, just so you can decide which group of self-serving blowhards you'd rather hear lie to each other's plastic faces.

The finalists are thrown onto a plane and end up in Las Vegas, where they walk into a theater that is "cold and kind of creepy looking," says Michelle. Like if Jake Pavelka was a theater, basically. Host Chris Harrison prances out from behind a cloud of smoke and uselessness looking like a lesbian Phantom of the Opera.

Since the most they've been asked to do so far this season is hump each other in mid-air for half an hour, everyone is crazy-freaked out by the prospect of doing something that requires actual training and skill. Each routine is only 60 seconds, and 10 seconds of that must be improv that demonstrates their "chemistry" as a couple. (Barf.)

We meet the "judges," who of course are the only three "successful" Bachelor and Bachelorettes, who in exchange for their love must serve as ABC's indentured servants for their entire lives: Trista Sutter, Jason Mesnick and Ali Fedotowsky.

The Winners: Holly and Michael! They've got roses, which means they are safe and going into the finals. They also have a big responsibility, like too much responsibility, probably: They get to choose the couple who will join them in the finale.

Who's Going to the Finals?

So now Michael and Holly have to choose which couple will join them (and compete against them) in the finals, and you can bet that Kasey and Vienna will do ANYTHING to convince Michael and Holly that it should be them. Vienna asks Kasey to be his "least intense," because she knows his freakish deluded passion is a big turnoff for Holly. (And everyone else except herself.) Kasey and Vienna try to say that they've "earned" the spot in the finals because they've "done the dirty work" all season long, and they also probably won't win, so Michael and Holly would have it in the bag! Kasey rambles on like a madman despite that Vienna told him not to.

Ghost Rider 2: Spirit of Vengeance

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is directed by Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor. It stars Nicolas Cage as Johnny Blaze(The Ghost Rider), Idris Elba as Moreau and Ciarán Hinds as The Devil.


Ghost Rider 2 It is packed with multiple times the adrenaline and Insanity. As Johnny Blaze hides out in Eastern Europe, he is called upon to stop the devil, who is trying to take human form and struggling to repress his curse. Blaze is recruited by a sect to take on the devil, who wants to take over his mortal son’s body on the boy’s birthday."

Movie does show the new characters that we were expecting to see. One being Idris Elba as Moreau and the other being Violante Placido who plays the role of Nadya. 

Also once more matter of concern is that the initial movie was made at an estimated budget of $110 million. Now the sequel or reboot the Ghost Rider 2: Spirit of vengeance as a budget of just $75 million. With all the inflation and everything around one  would expect the sequel to be made at least at a cost of something near the budget of the original movie. The filming was done in Romania and there has also been a pay cut for the actors. So we have to wait and see how the movie is going to be in terms of all the special effects with such a budget cut.

Idris Elba as Moreau,

Legendary Bollywood heartthrob Shammi Kapoor, No More

Bollywood actor Shammi Kapoor dead at 79


Actor Shammi Kapoor, the dancing star who revolutionised the image of Hindi film heroes in the 1950s and 1960s with his carefree and flamboyant personality, died on Sunday. He was born on october 21, 1931. He was 79 year old. He died of kidney failure at the Breach Candy Hospital at 5.15am, his son Aditya Raj Kapoor said.

"Shammi Kapoor ji passed away this morning at 5:15 am," Bollywood veteran Amitabh Bachchan wrote on Twitter, using the Hindi honorific, saying Kapoor brought had "flamboyance and joie de vivre" to the screen.

Nikhil Gangavane, a family friend who headed the official Shammi Kapoor fan club, said the actor was admitted to the private Breach Candy Hospital in south Mumbai earlier this week.

"He was on a ventilator for three or four days. He was having some chest infection, which he had had for the last one or two years. He died of renal failure this morning," Gangavane told AFP.

"He had been undergoing dialysis for the last six or seven years but developed complications."

Kapoor's dance performances in romantic hits like Tumsa Nahin Dekha" (You're One of a Kind, 1957), "Dil Deke Dekho" (Give Your Heart and See, 1959) and "Junglee" (Wild, 1961) earned him comparisons with US singer Elvis Presley.

Key to his success was his avid interest in music. Kapoor personally selected the songs he would dance and mime to, mindful that they needed to fit his exuberant on-screen style.

In doing so, he and singers like Mohammed Rafi provided some of the industry's most popular and memorable tunes.

In later years, as he withdrew from acting and direction, Kapoor became a champion of the Internet and was the founder-chairman of the Internet Users Community of India, maintaining a Facebook page and a Twitter account.
