Batman V Superman: My Review

Many people didn't like the movie mostly because they do not follow DC universe in depth and thus didn't get the references. Followers of DC universe already know the characters very well. That's the reason why the characters weren't introduced in detail as the main story is about Batman & Superman. There would be separate prequels for introducing other characters, like an "Origin" story. Solo movies on Wonder woman, Aquaman, Flash and others would be coming soon.

Unlike reboots of Spiderman, Zack Snyder avoided the origin story as its unnecessary and it would be impossible to introduce every character in this movie. Superman was introduced in Man of Steel, everyone knows Batman, Wonder woman - daughter of Greek God Zeus is over 4000 years old, a follower of DC universe should know that. Her intention in this film is still unclear, may be it would be disclosed in her solo movie which is a prequel. There were many reference from comics/animated universe but they weren't taken as it is. The most important highlight of the movie was Flash sending Batman a message from the future where they already are a team, and tells him to find them in present, suggesting to build the team earlier. Also informs him that if Lois dies, Superman will go rogue.

From the visions of the future we see that Batman owns an army (like from JL alternate history), Superman has its own (like the Justice Lord). There is one more army which possibly belongs to Darkseid (due to the Omega symbol). This army had masks similar to the Talons from the new 52 comics series and wings similar to Darkseid's army.

Mostly, this movie was about a tussle between two superheroes with distinct ideologies and Lex Luthor adding fuel to their hatred turning them hostile towards each other. The only big blunder the filmmaker has done is by revealing most of the action scenes in its trailers. To those who don't follow DC universe in depth, can't help sorry. But the action scenes were good enough.

Speculative Hindu Temple Architecture: Modern style

India has a wonderful variety of Hindu temple architectures. Each style evolved from previous one during a particular era and under a particular cultural influence. But after colonial period, the style stopped evolving further and all later modern temples we see today have borrowed heavily from the styles that existed before. Although there are a few hipster styles today, but still it’s little bland if you compare it with the kind of architectures that existed before. So, how would’ve been Hindu temple architecture of today’s India if we follow its pattern? But first let’s check out all types of Hindu temple architecture styles in India and abroad. You definitely must be aware of the most common styles – the north Indian ‘Nagara’, the south Indian ‘Dravida’, and its blend known as ‘Vessara’. But there are many regional styles which often get unnoticed by the common folk. Let’s check them out. Types of Hindu Temple Architecture Early Nagara Shikhara with Gavaksha Dravida Vimana Vessar...

Indian Festival(s): Diwali

Diwali also known as Dipavali, which is festival of lights. Although the present scenario in cities of modern India (@least in Mumbai) contradicts the meaning of the festival. The festival of lights is celebrated as festival of noise. Fireworks were used as they gave lights, which were followed by bombs & other crackers which gives 2% light, 48% smoke and 50% noise. It seems like the main intention of celebrating a festival is to trouble people around. Many people have asthma problems; many people mostly due to old age have timid ears and can even get a heart attack after listening the kaboom noise of the crackers. Even during marriages and Ganpati visarjan , traffic jam and making loud noise with weird dances on the streets are common. They don't care if an ambulance have to pass by or if there is hospital in that area.  Indian festivals have now became the best examples of mockery. Festivals are celebrated by troubling other people. Not ju...

The World is getting Crazier, and there is a reason for it

While in the background humans are constantly destroying nature and slowly getting destroyed in the process, conflicts are on the rise more than ever. Not international conflicts or regional conflicts but conflicts of ideas that are radically so different that they are polarising societies from the inside. There are some words which people utter nowadays which no one could think of a decade ago. If you can, just time travel a decade behind and tell your younger self how societies and people have changed. I am sure that your younger self would find it as absurd as believing that there is a long pandemic in the 2020s. So, what has changed in these years? Your tolerance levels. A person drinks for the first time and just two pegs make the person tipsy. The third one makes the person a drunk. But slowly, as the body’s tolerance level develops the person is able to drink four pegs and still feel fine. Now, if the person really wants to feel drunk, more alcohol is required. The same thing ...
