Looks Like I Missed One!

Last week i wrote about the new summer blockbusters for 2011. I discussed five movies, but I guess I missed one that mu mind said that might fail to impress. Boy was I wrong! I m talking about the new J J Abrams and Speilberg cocreation 'Super 8'


Set in 1979, "Super 8" tells the story of a group of kids who are filming a home movie when there's a violent train crash. When unexplained events start to threaten their town, they begin to suspect something inhuman escaped from the train. The film stars Joel Courtney, Elle Fanning, Kyle Chandler, Ryan Lee, Riley Griffiths, Gabriel Basso and Zach Mills.

he period sci-fi pic -- directed by Abrams and produced by Spielberg -- officially rolls out Friday in 3,379 theaters, following sneak previews at 329 locations Thursday. Amid decidedly muted advance buzz, its performance this weekend is the subject of heated speculation among insiders.

Paramount, which maintains that the $50 million film doesn't need a big opening weekend, is predicting a debut in the $25 million to $30 million range. It will vie for honors with "X-Men: First Class," which debuted last weekend to $55.1 million. The superhero sequel enjoyed strong midweek business, with a total of $69.9 million through Wednesday.

The film might have earned a lot more if proper advertising or promotion was done. The film is mysterious in regards to story and the way its earning

Whats with NewZealand

It is understood that as the time will pass the frequency of earthquake's occurrence would increasing. But whats wrong with the beautiful country of New Zealand? 
New Zealand had faced a number of Earthquakes this year. Especially its one of the biggest cities like Christ church.


A series of strong quakes, including a 6.0-magnitude tremor, rocked New Zealand's stricken Christchurch Monday, causing one building to collapse and prompting evacuations.

Power company Orion said electricity had been cut to 54,000 homes. The US Geological Survey measured the latest quake at a depth of nine kilometres (5.6 miles) and some 14 kilometres from the country's second largest city.

It is a common perception that Japan would be the one country that would be wiped off of the face of the world due to Earthquakes, but to me it looks like New Zealand thats gonna vanish (I wish that never happens). Scientist should now start investigating the reasons for these medium to strong range of earthquakes. Four Months ago NZ faced huge tremors and 181 people were killed. Then another earthquake within 4 months (with some small to medium scale tremors in between before this one) is quite alarming.

All you people in NZ. Peace! and be Safe!
