@ Anu - OMG, that was exactly how I felt about ZNMD too. It's like you just spoke my mind!

The promos didn't excite me either - I was expecting it to be another trashy and wannabe-ish movie because lord knows we have so many of them today. It was such a relief to discover that it was a different film. And I'm glad they didn't try to make it look like a DCH remake/sequel.

LOL at what you wrote about adventure sport documentaries. It was almost like watching the Discovery channel in the theater. 😆

Regarding Challo Dilli ... I watched the first half of it last week but haven't had the time to finish the whole thing yet. From what I saw, it seemed like a nice movie. Bollywood rarely focuses on depicting platonic relationships between men and women who meet as strangers. Everyone just falls in love by the end of their misadventures.

Yeah it deffo wasn't a DCH level ki movie...but I guess I'd say that both the Akhtar siblings have this SENSITIVITY to their movies that comes through...they aren't wannabe-ish...the movie wasn't really overtly preachy...and not a masterpiece either...but it makes you smile, makes you muse in some ways...and that makes for a pleasant movie-going experience...the friendships were shown in a genuine manner and that was the crux of the movie I felt...

@OC--- yeah i have "favorited" Seth-Summer scenes on YT...lol i was bored over the weekend and so i re-watched Seth-Summer moments. 😆 Can you believe it that Rachel is almost 30 now?! She still looks like she's 22 to me!
and ummm where the heck is Adam Brody?! Haven't seen him since that movie he did with Meg Ryan..."in the land of women" or something.

LOL, she really looks like a kid...her skin is flawless! I guess she'll never need Botox! 😆

@SMG--- yeah this is definitely her show...the story revolves around her two characters. I think she said in one of her comic con interviews that the reason she took this show is because of the characters she will be playing. I mean if you look from an actor's point of view, this seems like an interesting show...playing two characters...both of whom are totally flawed, both have mystery surrounding them and then to switch from one to another...now that just sounds confusing but hell of a lot interesting to play, doesn't it!? Absolutely - it's incredibly fascinating...almost like she's schizophrenic 😆 it sounds confusing on paper, but I think with good acting we shouldn't have any problems differentiating between the characters. I mean, even Anna Torv on Fringe who, as I say, is quite wooden in many respects, plays two characters (well, she plays the same character in different universes 😆)...it amazes me actually - I was watching her on the Fringe panel and for a lot of the time I forget that Anna plays both Olivia and Fauxlivia...the characters are played so differently that despite their physical similarities, I see them as two people. And SMG is definitely a better actress than Anna, so I don't have any concerns over that.

I can't wait till the premiere now! Me too! Thank goodness it's one of the early ones, it'll give us a chance to really sink into it without distractions.

@CW being low budget---well at least it's not on abc or nbc...those channels axe their shows quite often. CW shows tend to garner rather "younger" audience usually because of the shows it has been airing...but may be this show might change it. They are promoting it quite a lot...way more than "Hart of dixie" and "the secret circle." That's true - and I've seen (even though I don't get to watch CW here) that they have been promoting Nikita quite a lot as well...so it looks like they are trying to move away from their teeny-bopper image and get into some real content. I guess with the departure of Dawn Ostroff things are looking up for the CW.
