During the Easter weekend while many people were recovering from Easter egg hunts and family reunions, Lady GaGa was busy pulling out all the stops. Fans gathered round during the later hours of the evening on Easter weekend to listen to a one hour and fifteen minute concert by Lady GaGa at the Palm Springs Convention Center.

Who was Lady GaGa pulling out all the stops for?

Lady GaGa was performing for the Jerry Sanker twentieth annual white party. She didn’t even get on the stage until nearly two in the morning! But that didn’t stop the fans from staying and watching her perform and entertain everyone. Lady GaGa was the life of the party!

During her performance, Lady GaGa did: Poker Face, Just Dance, Love Game and Paprazzi. The last song, Parazzi, is one that Lady GaGa is hoping to be a major hit.

What surprise did Lady GaGa give to the crowd in the wee hours of the morning while on stage at the Palm Springs Convention Center?

The song Poker Face was inspired by Lady GaGa’s experience with bisexuality. She said that the song Poker Face is the expression that a woman has to put on while she’s with a man and really thinking about a woman she’d rather be with.

Before Sunset (R)

Before Sunset is a beautiful film and is a sequel of the film Befor Sunrise that was released in 1995. The film has been directed by the same director who directed the first film, all time famous Richard Linktaker. Though the sequel too long, more than 9 years to come out, but there is a reason behind that. The sequel took 9 years because it is the same time that is mentioned in the story, as the film is based on the book of the same name. The film takes place right after the events and of Before Sunrise. Jesse and Celine have met again. Jesse has launched a story book based on the events of her life and the film was a succes. When she goes to Europe to promote the book, she meets Celine. They walk together and talk about their previous life. Jesse has got a seat booked for New York. Now she has to decide whether she stays or not. Overall it is a great romantic film with a beautiful theme and it is sure to please alot of people. It is a great sequel and make sure you dont miss this movie.

Samuel Jackson Being Fired By Marvel!?

I read this news at Cinema Blend and i decided to share it with you guys. Marvel is planning to fire Samuel Jackson from their upcoming superhero film, Iron Man 2. Recently, Samuel Jackson played the role of a Marvel character Nick Fury in Iron Man, a film from Marvel Studios. But, now the rumors are that they are planning to fire Samuel Jackson. Samuel Jackson has said that negotiations with Marvel Studios are disconnected. Nobody knows what the reason is behind firing Samuel Jackson is. Maybe it is because of financial circumstances (as the statement from Samuel Jackson suggests) and Marvel Studios is not paying Samuel Jackson, enough to make him work for them. However, only time will tell what is the truth.
Here are some facts about Samuel Jackson. Samuel Jackson is one of the highest paid film stars in the world. I read it on Wikipedia that Guinness Book of World Records said that Samuel Jackson is the highest grossing actor who has earned up to 7.42 billion dollars in only 68 films.
Samuel is a busy man with a lot of upcoming films such as Inglorious Bastards and the Last Dragon.

2 Fast 2 Furious

One of the best car racing films 2 Fast 2 Furious was released in the year 2003. This film was directed by all time famous John Singleton. The story and the dialogue of the film may not be good, but you are sure to enjoy the intense illegal street racing action and exotic cars that the film is packed with. The story continues from the point when Brian O’Connor, an undercover police officer, comes to Miami to start a new life after the disgraceful events that took place in the first film. He and his friend Tyrese now go undercover in order to help a hot looking customs agent, played by Eva Mendes, capture the chief of some drug dealing corporation. The film is full of street racing action, drifting, dragging etc. I bet you will fell off your seats while watching the thrilling and chilling action. You will be able to see some of the most exotic cars of all time including Ferrari, Dodge Challenger, Ford Mustang, Nissan Skyline and many more. If you are a racing fan then you should’nt miss this film.

The Dark knight

“The Best movie to have released in recent times!!”

IMHO The Dark Knight is a movie to which the above statement can be applied to.

The pre-release hype that surrounded this movie was unmatched. The very good first part (Batman Begins) and the death of the movie’s main antagonist Heath Ledger (The Joker) were the prime reasons for it. Besides this Warner Bros. adapted aggressive marketing for this big budget movie. There are very few movies that i can think of that have lived up to the hype that they’ve created. This movie not only lives up to it, but surpasses all. There are even fewer movies that i know, that have become both, box office hits and critically acclaimed. And this movie is one of those elite!

There is not one aspect of the movie where the movie falls short of a high standard. Be it Direction, Acting, Story, Entertainment, you name it, this movie has got it all. Its just not one of those mindless non-stop action flicks, with Only jaw-dropping stunts. It has got everything. Even Emotion, which many movies of this genre lack.

And then just when you thought it was all over there comes a twist! That is another thing special about this movie. Despite the length (2hrs 30 mins) the movie is so gripping and fast-paced that you will never once feel “its a bit of a drag now” (i checked my watch in the end to see if it really was 2 and a half hours).

A lot has already been said about The Joker’s performance that I’m about to say. Whether he deserves an Oscar can only be said with relation to other great performances in other movies this year. The Joker has put up a splendid show but then again i feel that its not the kind of performance that cannot be replicated. Maybe it was my huge expectation on his performance which has made me say this, I don’t know. There are already talks about who might be the next joker (Daniel Day Lewis? Johnny Depp?). It remains to be seen if anyone can ever match up to Ledger’s performance. Though all this said, it is acting which you would love to see over and over and over again….. The Joker has immortalized Heath Ledger.

Christian Bale has been overshadowed by Ledger in this movie. But nevertheless the cast of Bale, Oldman, Eckhart and Caine have delivered power-packed performances befitting the movie’s stature. I feel Katie Holmes would have done the job better than Maggie Gyllenhaal, as she is a better actress than the latter, in my opinion.

The movie is even a visual spectacle and for those looking for high-flying action and special effects, you wont be disappointed.
Possibly one of the best parts of the movie arrived in the last 10 minutes or so, which contained memorable dialogues and powerful scenes. It sets this movie apart from any other super-hero movie ever made. And when the words, “The Dark Knight” is displayed across the screen just before the end credits roll, you can feel the hair on your skin rise!!

Expectations are obviously high on Chris Nolan for the next Batman movie. But even if he is the same man who made Memento and The Prestige besides the two Batman movies, i don’t think even He can surmount his accomplishment in The Dark Knight!

There is little that I’ve said above that has not been said before about this movie. So rather than reading the countless rave reviews, i suggest you watch the movie immediately, if you haven’t. Watch the movie without any of the expectations created by Reviews similar to this one, to enjoy the movie even more. :-)

Rating : 10/10

(I never thought I would put such a rating ever again, for a movie after The Departed !)
