So Cynra & I did burritos and comics today. Pulled well in my HC booster; got Jakeem Thunder (so I'm batting 1.000 in Uniques in Origins boosters) and a V Booster Gold.
Enjoyed the new Spider-Man. In spite of some criticism, specifically "why must Spider-Man be vengeful? Other charactes are vengeful" Yeah, but I don't READ those books. So if Spidey's gonna go angry, I'll read it. He'll get over it, and learn something about himself as a person.
New 52 was good; Black Adam Vs the Island of Misfit Mad Scientists and stuff.
Wisdom #4 continues to be fun. Best Jack the Ripper superhero story evah.
I am enjoying the new Brave & the Bold book. Not reading a lot of books gives you a lot of leeway when you don't know the characters too well (for example, I don't know when the heck the new Supergirl showed up, but apparently, she's 17). Hal Jordan shows more class that I give him credit for, not hitting on Supergirl, although that's likely to avoid having his power lantern knocked off, and by power lantern I mean penis.
Okay, is it just me, or are these both the same movie?
Namastey London (NR); Limited
What happens when you transplant an English rose to a countrytside in Punjab and expect her to thrive in an alien environment? The rose will either die or rebel. That's exactly what Jazz, rather Jasmeet does when her father Manmohan Singh brings her to India and gets her married to Arjun, a rough and tough farmer who can barely speak English. But, Jazz too is equally determined to marry Charlie Brown her British boyfriend. Caught in this emotional tug of war between father and daughter is poor Arjun, who is helplessly and hopelessly in love with his beautiful but unyielding wife. In Namaste London, this emotional and dramatic tug of war will determine whether love is more about giving or taking, whether Indian values must surrender to Western culture or whether Jazz or Jasmeet will win!
Starring: Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Upen Patel, Rishi Kapoor, Javed Sheikh

As he attempts to find a potential mate for Gemma, his life changes forever. He discovers true love and resolves issues in his own personal life.
