three oscars
Hurt Locker which earned less than 2% of Avatar’s box collection, won six Oscars compared to three by Avatar. Avatar was a movie based on the theme of human greed which could someday make the environment unlivable. On the contrary, Hurt Locker was a movie based on Iraq, bombs and army. Avatar was one of the biggest 3D movies ever made and it has revolutionized the way movies are made. Every screen of this movie is made using sophisticated technologies many of which was specially designed for this movie. Reviews all over the world indicated that Avatar will rule the Oscars but the result has disappointed many movie buffs all over the world, especially from the developing nations. People in these countries could relate to Pandora more than the bomb diffusion. Although Hurt Locker was more practical, people in developing nations prefer environment.
Rogues
Aamir 3 Idiots -Golmuri3 idiots has been in the limelight for quite some time , starting with the great hype and publicity surrounding the movie. Within days of the release, the movie has created a box office history and is being rated as one of the top movies of the decade, collecting close to Rs 175 crore.
Amazingly crafted simple but very strong story by Aamir Khan… The movie is a rebuff on the whole Indian education system and the society which regards Doctors, Engineers, etc. as demigods and artists, poets’ profession as futile wastage of time. True, money is an important aspect no doubts but the former mentioned careers are not the only way to success and fame. Just because these are ’safe careers’ who wants to venture on something new or take a risk of encouraging one’s child to become a painter? In the rat race for clinging on to anything which brings money, we have actually forgotten that to love the thing you do, you have to listen to your heart and not mind. This realization does come. Sometimes luckily sooner, sometimes unfortunately later.
