"Southpaw jinx nothing"

Hey fellas, Let's Get Entertained.

What will I be talking about in here on Let's Get Entertained ?
I will talk about the Entertainment part of the universe. 


I always wait for Jake Gyllenhaal's movies and Southpaw is one of his movies that I so wanted to watch. If you are a Rocky fan, you would have gotten the blog title "Southpaw jinx nothing" where I quoted Apollo Creed. Here for this movie 'Southpaw' is quite a smart choice for a movie title. 

Similar to Rocky, Billy Hope in Southpaw faces ups and downs in his life. Only here Billy Hope when facing the downs, goes terribly down because of his wife's death. So this movie even though clearly will have a boxing match ending, is an emotional rollercoaster if we have to put it in generic words. 

Like Adrian for Rocky, Maureen (Rachel McAdams) for Billy is the driving force for the boxer. Oh Rachel Rachel. Even though she comes on only for the fist few minutes in the movie, oh boy did she kill the role (pun intended). She was amazing as a tough wife of a boxer who makes decisions for him. 

Now about this Billy Hope, he is just simple to judge. A reckless, defenseless boxer who loves his family. So, clearly the death of Billy's wife turns the speed of the movie around and what factor makes the boxer to get back on a better path ? Getting his daughter back from social services who took her obviously because of his recklessness. 

That girl Oona Laurence who plays Leila Hope can really do intense roles at this age. Impressive. Usually kids trying to play mature roles annoy me but this one just impressed me. 

And Forest Whitaker's role could have done more justice to him. Yes I said it right. 
50 Cent who ? haha 

Did you know Eminem was supposed to play the lead role for this movie ? But he later decided just to write songs for this movie. I love "I am phenomenal" and "Kings never die". Playing on repeat right now while I am writing this. 

Jake always makes good movies better. He did a great job again here. His voice and speed of speech everything was different here. And woah that guy got ripped as hell.

I would easily give Southpaw a 9/10.

Surface Pro 3 - #LetsTalkTech

Hey fellas, Let's Talk Tech.

What will I be talking about in here on Let's Talk Tech ? 
I will talk about Technology and stuff happening around in that part of the universe.

So Microsoft's Surface Pro 3 event happened today and it made me get back to my blog. I am just gonna give you guys the gist about the product in the aspect we care about. 

Pic Source: yahoo.com
Basically Microsoft had this 'Versus Apple' theme again saying Surface Pro 3 is a replacement of iPad and MBA combined. In a traditional tech event way, they gave some statistics about most of the apple customers who have an iPad also have a computer. So releasing a tablet that will replace your laptop. Sounds catchy and tempting, but is it up to the mark ?

Here is what you need to know and keep in mind after today's event if at all you are tempted to buy Surface Pro 3. With Microsoft's hint I am gonna use MBA to compare to make my point. 

MBA (Core i5) with Intel's Haswell processor microarchitecture, has been on sale for about an year and after its recent price reduction it costs $900.
Surface Pro 3 on the other hand is being introduced now with the same Haswell processor. The issue here is Intel has confirmed the release of PCs with Haswell's successor - Broadwell chips in the near future. So if you buy Surface Pro 3, it will be outdated before even you know it. And the Core i5 equivalent is $100 more than MBA. Also its unclear (may be to me) whether the start price of $799 (Core i3) includes the peripheral devices. 

Well the other aspects of device type and usage, Surface has a detachable keyboard and touch screen feature which is what Microsoft is emphasizing on. And Surface has a better display of 2160x1440. Although I don't care much about the little difference in weight of the devices, it might matter for some of you who like cases on PDAs because it weighs almost the same as MBA with the peripheral devices.

Well these are not all the deciding factors. Let someone buy it and we'll ask them about the performance aspects, battery life etc etc., before we come to a conclusion.

The latest pic I am proud of - #LetsCLike

Hey fellas, Let's CLike. 

What will I be talking about in here on Let's CLike ? 
I will talk about the pics I ‘clicked or liked’.

I am not sure whether this is how everyone who likes to take pictures feel like, but I sure do. That is, even if you get criticized right to your face about the pics you take, you still like em and are really proud of it. 




The above recent pic of my friend's daughter Katelyn, that I took is what I really like. Yes, this is one of the pics I got bad feedback for from people with really "good taste". Hahaha I am just kidding. NOT. :P

I don't know how or why, but the eyes of babies are so much sharper and majestic compared to our sick and tired adult eyes. 

So technically a professional photographer might find faults in this pic and may be others wouldn't consider this a great pic, but I had so much fun while editing the pic which made me like it so much. I just enhanced the colour a little and cropped the edges. Apart from that most of the light in it are natural sun light.

Purple Wedding - #LetsGetEntertained

Hey fellas, Let's Get Entertained.

What will I be talking about in here on Let's Get Entertained ?
I will talk about the Entertainment part of the universe. 

Game of Thrones fans * SPOILERS * ahead. 
So another bad wedding that ended badly at Westeros. It's probably the time for them to change their wedding planner guy. So the kid from Batman Begins who became the most hated on screen villain ever is now finally dead. Btw this is the best compliment any actor could get. I want to mention what I heard about the note that George R.R Martin sent to Jack Gleeson which said "Everyone hates you. Congratulations".

And about the purple wedding which is called that because of the colour of the wine that caused his death, if I am not wrong. I actually thought King Jeoffrey's death would be a very gore death like beheading by one of the Starks or may be the Snow. Even though we still don't know who did it now. I am guessing Hodor. Hmmm. 


Also this episode made everyone wanting Tyrion to lose his patience but it just made it more better. So, from this point is where we could expect a lot more 'edge of the seat' events in Westeros. 
And I can't pretend not seeing where the dragon flew over in the previews. Woo !

Google Glass sale day (Only in US) - #LetsTalkTech

Hey fellas, Let's Talk Tech.

What will I be talking about in here on Let's Talk Tech ? 
I will talk about Technology and stuff happening around in that part of the universe.

Hey US residents, Happy Google Glass sale day. Just today, Google glass' 'Explorer' version goes on sale for US residents with Google apologizing to other country residents that they are not yet ready for sales on other countries.


The $1500 (price hasn't changed since the start) smart eye-wear will certainly make more fuzz today (15th April 2014), being on sale.

I really want to see the categories of target customers and the interested customers on Google glass, particular during this period of time.

Latest News: Just a day before going on sale, Google updates Glass to Android with KitKat support canceling video calls.
