Welcome to my new movie review blog "ScreenScribes"

Hi guys,
An ex-colleague and I started a new blog on movies and TV series reviews called Screen Scribes.
Still in an inception stage, we have put up some 4 reviews currently.
Do check it out and give us feedback on the reviews.

Also if you feel strongly about any movie or TV series and want to share it with us, just contact me for posting rights...the more the merrier. I think it's a good way to brush up on our writing skills.

A little bit about my colleague...his name is Mihir Patkar, very similar to our profile, loves movies, games and technology. In fact, he is a lance science and technology writer for various publications and their online versions (Digit, Mirror etc etc). Also a major comic book buff as well.

Satya, its time to put your writing skills to test. Satish, please give flame to your natural critic and contribute. Shwetz, your experience is so critical for our growth as writers.

So what are you guys waiting for? Let's get it on!!!

When comic book heroes go over the hill

This is too funny! Had to share it with you guys :) Altho, I'm sure you aren't gonna agree with Donald Soffritti's comic indictment for our super heroes... But hey, how would 'you' imagine they'd be in their geriatric phase?

That apart, Satish I still hate you!

Kindle-garten


So I thought I'd make my debut with an Ode to Mr Rajamani who won't be in our midst anymore... :(
This is all I could manage to do between washing dishes and being the sole creative genius in TIL. :D


So long "nerd"... (Thought you'd like this comic strip... especially this one!)

The good news is reality exists. The bad is it’s even stranger than people thought

For the "geeks" as some people may say :)

But honestly there has to be another term to define our kinda people, right shwetz ?

Anyways on the above story, it vaguely implies that Neo and Agent Smith can coexist ...Your thoughts on that probability
