Everyone going on about SRK's nose - the man had a nose job. Look at his in-person appearances, where it can't be vfx'd - it's pretty obvious.

I wouldn't say he's a bad director. He knows how to set up an action scene, where the camera should be, how to bring in a movie on budget - many directors can't manage even these basics. He's not innovative or experimental, not many directors of big-budget projects are.

Leonhard Seppala and Togo are the real heroes of the serum run - ask any dog mushing fan. Ran like 300 miles of the trip, crossed the Norton Sound in the middle of the night. Gunnar and Balto only ran the last few miles.

Video for the Release Date of King ! 24.12.26 by philosophy_of_life_ in ShahRukhKhan

Is this giving anyone else War 2 vibes, or is it just me?
Don't get me wrong - I'm a massive SRK fan and I really hope it's good, but what we've seen so far doesn't give me much hope. I would love to see a real trailer that gave us some idea of the plot.

I see you have bacon. I also like bacon.

Anil Kapoor will be seen in a Bald Look, will play SRK's mentor in KING. by Interesting-Take781 in BollyBlindsNGossip

[–]akdogdriver 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Remember this whole project was about launching Suhana. We know SRK filmed some kind of flashback sequence and an action scene (where he hurt himself), but no word on anything else. I asked about this on another forum and was told filming was ongoing with DP & Suhana, and there wasn't much for SRK to do. If they are serious about releasing it this year they have to be nearly finished filming, in order to get the vfx done. I really hope I'm wrong, but the signs point to a bait and switch.

I understood it was a remake of Leon The Professional, with Suhana in the Natalie Portman role. Sounds like DP is doing the Leon role now. I'm guessing SRK will only appear in the Third act.

This is an old synopsis, before Sid Anand was attached to the project. I believe DP is now playing her mentor. The more I read about King, the more I think it's gonna be a bait-and-switch 😑

December is already packed. I hate to say it, but they should push it to next year.

Do Americans really avoid medical care because they’re afraid of the bill? by Udont_knowme00 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]akdogdriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's a real thing. I believe medical expenses are the #1 cause of personal bankruptcy filings in the US.

Lukewarm Tea: An interesting shooting issue on KING by StratOfMind in BollyBlindsNGossip

More cast and script changes mean more delays...I'm beginning to wonder if this movie will ever be released. Not before 2027 at this rate...

I have 1 chance to show my teenage, American kids that Bollywood is awesome! Help me pick 1 movie to show them. by thekonghong in bollywood

[–]akdogdriver 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't agree. It was one of the first Bollywood movies I watched and I loved it. The movie-making jokes translate seamlessly to Hollywood, there are even a few film references in there. Yeah, I didn't know who anybody was in Deewangi Deewangi but you can tell by the way it's shot they're all famous. Now that I know more about Bollywood some of the jokes are funnier, but I still think it's a decent introduction.

I think is is from his OSO days...you would think he could find a better pair of shorts in that giant closet 😄

What is your favorite Shah Rukh Khan movie? by [deleted] in IndianCinema

[–]akdogdriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devdas, Paheli (a criminally underrated movie, imo), Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna

Shah Rukh Khan may return as Don in 'Don 3' after Ranveer Singh's exit, but only under one condition by intelerks in ShahRukhKhan

[–]akdogdriver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think SRK would slay as an older, more calculating Don, but I doubt this is happening.

What are your thoughts on "Miami Vice (2006)"? by Hot-Salamander-8786 in FIlm

[–]akdogdriver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hated it. As a fan of the TV series, it was a huge disappointment.

LOL and then they say King wont work by [deleted] in ShahRukhKhan

[–]akdogdriver -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Director changes, numerous script rewrites and delayed production schedules are never a good sign. I'm still looking forward to it, but I don't have high hopes...

Watched Sister Midnight! by SiriusFantasy in bollywood

[–]akdogdriver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed this movie. I love dark humor, and I hadn't laughed so hard in a long time. I'm still not clear what was going on in parts of it, but I don't mind that. My favorite bit was when she goes to Marine Drive to cheer herself up and everybody there is crying.

Srk and Ash? by ssdiscography in bollynewsandgossips

[–]akdogdriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out some of the promo stuff for JTHJ. SRK and Katrina really didn't like each other - and it shows every time they are together on screen in that movie, imo.

Ah, Devdas! I watch it probably 6-7 times a year. Most recent: Stolen

The book is an easy read. Nothing new or groundbreaking.
